AIM: This study investigated childhood diagnoses in children born extremely preterm before 24 weeks of gestation.METHODS: Diagnoses of neurodevelopmental disorders and selected somatic diagnoses were retrospectively retrieved from national Swedish registries for children born before 24 weeks from 2007 to 2018. Their individual medical files were also examined.RESULTS: We studied 383 children born

PURPOSE: To evaluate retinal function in children taking vigabatrin and to explore the influence of age and dose parameters on the results of full-field electroretinography (ff-ERG).METHODS: The ff-ERGs from 14 children receiving vigabatrin were compared with ff-ERGs from healthy controls. Treated children were further grouped according to age (pre-school = 12-71 months; older = 72-228 months). Pa

Background: Bladder cancer is categorized as non-muscle invasive (NMIBC) or muscle invasive (MIBC). NIMBC makes up around 70% of the cases and although it is less aggressive, the recurrence rate is 50-70%, thus requiring extensive monitoring. Additionally, there is a risk of progression into MIBC with a 5-year survival of only 50% even when treated with radical cystectomy. Immune checkpoint inhibi

Rationale & Objective: Use of cystatin C in addition to creatinine to estimate glomerular filtration rate (estimated glomerular filtration rate based on cystatin C [eGFRcys] and estimated glomerular filtration rate based on creatinine [eGFRcr], respectively) is increasing. When eGFRcr and eGFRcys are discordant, it is not known which is more accurate, leading to uncertainty in clinical decisio

Objective: Non-sustained supraventricular tachycardia (nsSVT) is associated with a higher risk of developing atrial fibrillation (AF), and, therefore, detection of nsSVT can improve AF screening efficiency. However, the detection is challenged by the lower signal quality of ECGs recorded using handheld devices and the presence of ectopic beats which may mimic the rhythm characteristics of nsSVT. M

Skolämnet Idrott och hälsa (IDH) har ett brett innehåll eftersom det inkluderar både idrottsaspekter och hälsoaspekter. Tidigare studier har visat att idrott-delen dominerar på flera sätt, delvis på grund av ett vagt och icke-specifikt ämnesspråk i ämnesplaner, kursplaner och läromedel (Lundin & Schenker 2021, 2022; Lundin m.fl. 2021, 2023). Detta resulterar i att hälsoaspekterna av ämnet inteThe school subject Physical Education and Health (PEH) has a wide scope with respect to its content, combining the aspects ‘sports’ and ‘health’. Previous studies have shown that for the Swedish school subject PEH, sports dominate the content of the subject in several aspects, as a result of, for instance, a vague and unspecific subject specific literacy used in the curricula and course books (Lun

This paper aims at identifying the current main economic thought influencing the EU Cohesion Policy. Postulates and assumptions on how economic growth spreads spatially in key EU policy framework documents are discussed and compared to different economic theories. Strategic EU documents increasingly foster the urban dimension, and focus resources on cities at the expense of cohesive regional devel

OBJECTIVE: Niemann-Pick Type C (NPC) is a genetic neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder commonly associated with psychiatric symptoms and delays to accurate diagnosis and treatment. This study investigated biomarker levels and diagnostic utility of plasma neurofilament light chain (NfL) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in NPC compared to healthy controls. METHODS: Patients with NP

The aim of this work is to develop a method for detection of brief episode paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). The proposed method utilizes four different features: RR interval irregularity, absence of P waves, presence of f-waves and noise level. The obtained features are applied to the Mamdani-type fuzzy inference method for decisionmaking. The performance was evaluated on one hundred 90 s lon

Parkinson's disease (PD) affects motor function through degenerative processes and synaptic transmission impairments in the basal ganglia. None of the treatments available delays or stops the progression of the disease. While α-synuclein pathological accumulation represents a hallmark of the disease in its idiopathic form, leucine rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is genetically associated with familia

A key task in the ESMERALDA project dealt with identifying appropriate case studies to test the ‘flexible methodology’ in its different stages of development. Case studies consist of working examples in which mapping and assessment of ecosystem services were applied to address specific decision-making problems. Testing is understood as an iterative process of co-learning that involves project part

Carbon materials with unique sp2-hybridization are extensively researched for catalytic applications due to their excellent conductivity and tunable physicochemical properties. However, the development of economic approaches to tailoring carbon materials into desired morphologies remains a challenge. Herein, a convenient “bottom-up” strategy by pyrolysis of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) (or ot

We present new data for the ∼3.0 Ga Maniitsoq Norite Belt of the Akia Terrane, West Greenland, with the aim of understanding its petrogenesis. The Maniitsoq Norite Belt is hosted in regional tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) and dioritic orthogneisses, intruded by later sheets of TTG and granite pegmatites, and comprises two main rock types: plagioclase-rich “norites” and pyroxene-rich “mel

Design thinking is an innovative methodology that may be applied by small and medium enterprises which emphasizes a human-centered approach to problem-solving, facilitating the creation of novel solutions for complex and open-ended challenges like the development of new products. Despite its recognized importance in business and academia, many industrial SMEs struggle with applying design thinking

Background: Explicit weight bias is known as negative attitudes and beliefs toward individuals due to their weight status and can be perpetuated through misconceptions about the causes of obesity. Individuals may also experience weight bias internalization (WBI) when they internalize negative weight-related attitudes and self-stigmatize. There is a paucity of research on the beliefs about the caus

Temperature, a key environmental stressor, can induce changes at the molecular levels in the body of living beings, which are necessary for adaptation and survival under altered conditions. We investigated the effects of acute cold (3 °C) and heat (32 °C) shocks on hemolymph protein profiles in marbled crayfish. Results showed that cold shock induced a metabolic shift toward glucose production by
