Background and aims: Ethnicity influences the prevalence of gestational diabetes (GDM) and its progression to manifest diabetes postpartum, being higher in non-European populations. This may partly be explained by differences in insulin secretion and action. Aims of the present study were to evaluate glucose homeostasis after GDM, the impact of ethnicity and other determinants of glucose toleranceBackground and aims: Ethnicity influences the prevalence of gestationaldiabetes (GDM) and its progression to manifest diabetes postpartum, beinghigher in non-European populations.

Background: The apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 allele is associated with higher cholesterol levels, and an increased risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and amyloid-related imaging abnormalities after initiation of amyloid-modifying therapies. A worse cognitive response to cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI) treatment and longitudinal outcome in APOE ε4-carriers has been observed. Based on these c

Background Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women. Survival is generally considered favourable, yet some patients remain at risk of early death. We aimed to assess whether comprehensive whole-genome sequencing (WGS) linked to mortality data could add prognostic value to existing clinical measures and identify patients who might respond to targeted therapeutics. Methods In t

Studien syftar till att undersöka om och hur fastighetsförvaltningen beaktas genom hela byggprocessen i nybyggnadsprojekt och hur det kan förbättras. Målsättning är att besvara de för studien relevanta frågeställningarna. Frågeställningarna som studien åsyftar att besvara kommer att betraktas med ekonomisk och ekologisk hållbarhet i åtanke. Studien har genomförts som en kvalitativ studie baserat The study aims to examine if, and how, facility management is considered throughout the construction process of a project, and how it can be improved. The aim is to answer the questions at issue. The questions of issue will be studied with an economic and ecological sustainability perspective. The study has been implemented as a qualitative study based on a document analysis of two construction p

IMPORTANCE The clinical management of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers requires accurate, prospective cancer risk estimates. OBJECTIVES To estimate age-specific risks of breast, ovarian, and contralateral breast cancer for mutation carriers and to evaluate risk modification by family cancer history and mutation location.

Background Influenza and other respiratory viruses promote Streptococcus pneumoniae proliferation in the upper respiratory tract. We sought to investigate for what we believe is the first time, the effect of intranasal live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) on nasopharyngeal S pneumoniae density in a low-income to middle-income country population with high pneumococcal carriage rates. Methods I

Background and objectives: Neuroinflammation is implicated in the development and maintenance of persistent pain states, but there is limited data linking cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) inflammatory mediators with neurophysiological pain processes in humans. Study I aimed to investigate whether there are coherent changes in CSF inflammation associated with central sensitization (CS), and to evaluate po

Ultrasonic motors (USMs) have been extensively studied for three decades, due to their attractive features, such as high torque at low speed, simple structure, and precise positioning capability. However, since USMs are driven by the friction force between the rotor and the stator in most cases, they inherently possess the friction loss and the wear of contact materials, which cause their low effi

Barnobesitas är sedan flera år ett ökat hälsoproblem bland barn. Obesitas vid 4 års ålder ger en kraftigt ökad risk för obesitas senare i livet. Att förebygga uppkomst och utveckling av obesitas är en långsiktig investering för framtiden. Idag finns ingen evidensbaserad metod för vägledning inom barnhälsovården för att främja hälsosamma levnadsvanor och förebygga obesitas hos förskolebarn. Det övePrevention of childhood obesity with its effects on children’s mental and physical health and well-being is an international public health priority and is suggested to be effective when started early. As Child Health Services lack an evidence-based model, there is the need for development of a low-intensive health promotion model that is feasible and cost-effective in preventing obesity in prescho

Background: Mental health problems are prevalent among adolescents with severe obesity, but long-term mental health outcomes after adolescent bariatric surgery are not well known. We aimed to assess mental health outcomes over 5 years of follow-up after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in adolescents who participated in the Adolescent Morbid Obesity Surgery (AMOS) study. Methods: This was a non-ra

Mass migrations are a phenomenon of all times. Notably, following the Second World War, there have been huge migration movements and decolonisation processes, particularly by the Germans and the Jews, but also by Roma and other groups. Parallel to that, in 1963, Protocol No. 4 to the Convention was signed, with Article 4 prohibiting the collective expulsion of aliens. In 2020, 3,6% of the populati

This study aims to investigate and disentangle the impact of land use and climate variability on the Baltic Sea coastal zone from a millennial perspective. To assess the environmental status of the coastal zone we make use of siliceous microfossils (mainly diatoms), stable nitrogen and carbon isotopes, organic carbon accumulation rates, and lithological changes analyzed in a sediment core collecte
