Cell surface proteins that bind to the Fc part of Ig are expressed by many strains of group A streptococci, an important human pathogen. Two such bacterial strains, AP4 and AP1, were shown to bind IgA and IgG, respectively, in a temperature-dependent manner. The binding of radiolabeled Ig to the bacterial cells was lower at 37 degrees C than at 22 and 4 degrees C. Similarly, protein Arp, the IgA-b
Obesity has been associated with upper gastrointestinal cancers; however, there are limited prospective data on associations by subtype/subsite. Obesity can impact hormonal factors, which have been hypothesized to play a role in these cancers. We investigated anthropometric and reproductive factors in relation to esophageal and gastric cancer by subtype and subsite for 476,160 participants from th
Objective: To assess foetal circulating free foetal haemoglobin (fHbF) levels and heme defences, correlated to foetal circulatory biometry and foetal sex in severe early-onset foetal growth restriction (FGR). Design, Setting and Population: A prospective study severe early-onset foetal growth restriction pregnancies with close clinical management (estimated foetal weight (EFW) < 3rd centile and <

Objective: To evaluate the effects of low-dose prostacyclin on intestinal perfusion during endotoxemia. Design: A randomized, blinded experimental study. Setting: A university laboratory. Subjects: Sixteen anesthetized cats. Interventions: The animals received endotoxin by continuous intravenous infusion (0.5 mg/kg plus 0.5 mg kg(-1).hr(-1)) and a continuous volume replacement throughout the exper
Objective. To describe the change of pain reports over time in 3 cohorts derived from the general population: (1) no chronic pain (NCP, n = 1156); (2) chronic regional pain (CRP n = 502) and (3) chronic widespread pain (CWP; n = 242). To identify risk factors that predict the development or persistence of chronic widespread pain. Methods. A 3-year followup from 1995 to 1998 with postal questionnai
BACKGROUND: Low back pain (LBP) is a burdensome problem affecting amateur cyclists. This cross-sectional study analysed Italian amateur cycling cohort's demographic and sport-specific characteristics, the prevalence and characteristics of LBP among this population, its possible association factors, the management strategies adopted to deal with LBP and the sample's beliefs among possible LBP trigg
Background: Specific medical guidelines for health surveillance exist for people with Down syndrome (DS) since 25 years but knowledge of adherence to the guidelines is lacking. The guidelines were developed to avoid unnecessary suffering from preventable conditions. The aims of the study were to investigate 1) planned health care visits in relation to the co-morbidities described in specific medic
Pareto optimality is a concept that formalises the trade-off between a given set of mutually contradicting objectives. A solution is said to be Pareto optimal when it is not possible to improve one objective without deteriorating at least one of the other. A set of Pareto optimal solutions constitute the Pareto front. The Pareto concept applies well to the inverse planning process, which involves
Background: Whether long-term effectiveness differs between anti-tumour necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents is unknown. Aims: To examine drug survival of first-line anti-TNF agents and identify predictors of discontinuation. To reduce channelling bias, we also compared drug survival of the second anti-TNF. Methods: Biologic-naïve patients (N = 955) recorded in the Swedish IBD Quality Register (SWIBR
Background: [18F]PSMA-1007 is a promising tracer for integrated positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT). Objective: Our aim was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of [18F]PSMA-1007 PET/CT for primary staging of lymph node metastasis before robotic-assisted laparoscopy (RALP) with extended lymph node dissection (ePLND). Design, Setting and Participants: The study was a retrospe
Back pain is the #1 cause of years lived with disability worldwide, yet surprisingly little is known regarding the biology underlying this symptom. We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of chronic back pain (CBP). Adults of European ancestry were included from 15 cohorts in the Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology (CHARGE) consortium, and from th

Child stunting (chronic undernutrition) is a major public health concern in low- and middle-income countries. In Rwanda, an estimated 33% of children are affected. This study investigated the household living conditions and the impact of gender-related decision-making on child stunting. The findings contribute to ongoing discussion on this critical public health issue. In December 2021, a populati
Introduction Delayed palliative management (DPM) is an alternative for prostate cancer (PCa) patients with poor performance status, or those who received radical treatment but progressed and no longer meet the criteria for curative treatment. PIONEER is a large network of federated data analytic platforms in PCa that aims to improve its care through the application of big data analytics. The objec
