Maternal smoking during pregnancy constitutes a potential, major risk factor for adult male reproductive function. In the hitherto largest longitudinal cohort, we examined biomarkers of reproductive function according to maternal smoking during the first trimester and investigated whether associations were mitigated by smoking cessation prior to the fetal masculinization programming window. Associ
Ten per cent of patients with colorectal cancer will develop peritoneal metastases. These metastases are known to have a lesser response to systemic chemotherapy than liver- and lung metastases. Randomized studies have shown that adding cytoreductive surgery and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to this treatment gives a better chance of survival. Recently, a randomized study failed to s
Background: Smoke-free tobacco via moist oral snuff (snus) is used daily in more than 20% of Swedish men. Negative effects of cigarette smoking on sperm parameters are well documented, unlike for snuff, despite relevance also for other smoke-free nicotine products. Objectives: We wanted to investigate whether reproductive parameters differed between users and non-users of snuff, and whether the am
Background: The association of blood pressure (BP) with prostate cancer risk after accounting for asymptomatic prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing, and with prostate cancer death, is unclear. Methods: We investigated BP, measured at a mean age of 38 years among 430,472 men from five Swedish cohorts, in association with incident prostate cancer (n = 32,720) and prostate cancer death (n = 6718).
Information about the decline rate in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1s) in older adults with COPD is scarce. A total of 4082 community-dwelling older adults from the population-based study Good Aging in Skåne were followed for 12 years and 143 participants developed COPD. The average FEV1s decline is estimated to be 66.3 mL/year, (95% CI [56.4; 76.3]) and 43.3 mL/year (1.7%/year, 95% CI [41.
Poland and polish courts have been the subject of much attention during recent years, because of alleged problems in relation to the organisation of justice in Poland. It has been claimed that new suggested legislation in Poland, and changes in the system for appointing judges, prevents courts in Poland from adjudicating justice in a fair and independent manner in accordance with the Rule of Law.
Objective: To characterize the trend of opioid use (number of users, dispensations and oral morphine milligram equivalents) in Catalonia (Spain). Design, setting, and participants: This population-based cohort study included all individuals aged 18 years or older, registered in the Information System for Research in Primary Care (SIDIAP), which covers >75% of the population in Catalonia, Spain, fr
It has been suggested that added sugar intake is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, previous studies only focused on sugar-sweetened beverages; the evidence for associations with total added sugars and their sources is scarce. This study aimed to examine the associations of total added sugars, their physical forms (liquid vs. solid), and food sources with risk of N
Complete 4F2 vertical nanowire (VNW) 1T1R cells with 106 cycles switching endurance and with a demonstrated capability of performing Boolean logic are fabricated and characterized in cross-point arrays. The performance of the vertical 1T1R cell is benefited from using the same III-V/high- k interface both for the vertical GAA MOSFET selector as well as the ReRAM. In this paper, we also compare the
Background: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a leading cause of death. Even if successfully resuscitated, mortality remains high due to ischemic and reperfusion injury (I/R). The oxygen deprivation leads to a metabolic derangement amplified upon reperfusion resulting in an uncontrolled generation of reactive oxygen species in the mitochondria triggering cell death mechanisms. The understan
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is characterized by the accumulation of monoclonal CD5+ B cells with low surface immunoglobulins (IG). About 40% of CLL clones utilize quasi-identical B cell receptors, defined as stereotyped BCR. CLL-like stereotyped-IG rearrangements are present in normal B cells as a part of the public IG repertoire. In this study, we collected details on the representation an
The purpose of this study is to investigate the prediction of Ki-67 expression of breast cancers using MRI parameters from ultrafast (UF) DCE-MRI, DWI, T2WI, and the lesion size. Breast MRI was performed with a 3T scanner using dedicated breast coils. UF DCE-MRI was obtained using Compressed Sensing-VIBE (prototype sequence). As a kinetic parameter of UF DCE-MRI, maximum slope (MS) was defined as
Background: The association between neighbourhood crime and major depression (MD) has been described before but previous studies may be limited by biases in self-reported data and the use of homogenous study populations. Our study aimed to examine the association between neighbourhood crime and clinically diagnosed MD among the immigrant and non-immigrant populations in Sweden. Methods: A retrospe
Three metabolite patterns have previously shown prospective inverse associations with the risk of aggressive prostate cancer within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Here, we investigated dietary and lifestyle correlates of these three prostate cancer-related metabolite patterns, which included: 64 phosphatidylcholines and three hydroxysphingomyelins (Pattern
It is unclear whether diet, and in particular certain foods or nutrients, are associated with lung cancer risk. We assessed associations of 92 dietary factors with lung cancer risk in 327 790 participants in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Cox regression yielded adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) per SD higher intake/day of each
The study investigated how a case study through method triangulation can contribute to anuanced and detailed understanding of what challenges and strategies can be experienced in the development of group dynamics in a virtual team. With a theoretical basis in Tuckman phases of group development, Systems centered theory and An integrated model of group development, the team's attachment to the
Denna uppsats undersöker möjligheten till straffrättsligt ansvar vid använd-ning av högautomatiserade fordon (nivå 4–5 enligt SAE:s indelning) enligt svensk rätt. Specifikt fokuserar uppsatsen på tillämpligheten av 1 § Trafik-brottslagen (TBL) och undersöker om en fysisk person kan hållas ansvarig för vårdslöshet i trafik när ett autonomt körsystem är i kontroll. En rättsdogmatisk metod används meThis thesis paper explores the possibility of criminal liability under Swedish law when highly automated vehicles (level 4–5 according to SAE's classifica-tion) are used. It focuses on whether a physical person can be held responsi-ble for careless driving under Section 1 of the Traffic Offences Act (TBL), even when the vehicle is controlled by an autonomous driving system.
