Abstract While outcome studies in pediatric obesity have received considerable attention, research on different components of effective interventions remains limited. Little is known which psychological method (i.e., behavior modification, cognitive behavior therapy and family therapy) is most useful or how the choice of program delivery (group/individual) influences the intervention outcomes. Gro
Objectives: To find variables associated with outcome following thrombolytic treatment for acute lower limb ischemia. Design: Re-analysis of a prospective multicentre study. Material and methods: One hundred and twenty-one patients with acute lower limb ischemia previously included in a randomised study comparing high- with low-dose thrombolysis were re-analysed ignoring the mode of lytic treatmen
During 2011, ÅF launched a service called Green Business Screening (GBS) that provides a situation analysis of the overall environmental performance of a company. The model measures a company’s external and internal environmental integration and evaluates sustainability work through ten categories within a company, where the focus changes from internal categories to external categories. GBS is a g
Nowadays, the number of people infected with HIV/AIDS keeps rising in many countries. How can this risk be managed in society is an issue that gains on relevance. This paper focuses on the topic, how risk is communicated to society in the case of HIV/AIDS in Germany. It also looks at what aspects are emphasized and if different social groups are represented. Two nation-wide campaigns in Germany fr
Halvledarindustrin har en form av immaterialrätter avsedd särskilt för dem: Kretsmönsterrätter. Dessa introducerades i USA 1984 i syfte att skydda den amerikanska halvledarindustrin från konkurrens från östra Asien, huvudsakligen Japan. Den ersatte principen om nationell behandling med den materiella ömsesidighetsprincipen, som är normen inom immaterialrätt. Detta tillät USA att tvinga andra ländeThe semiconductor industry has a sui generis IP type dedicated to it: the semiconductor topography right. This right was introduced in 1984 with the purpose of protecting the U.S. semiconductor industry from East Asian, mainly Japanese, competition. It replaced the principle of treatment on a national basis that is the norm in IP law with one of material reciprocity, which allowed the U.S. to stro
This article analyses the energy transition of the Swedish iron and steel industry (1800–1939), a leading actor in the European iron and steel market during the 19th and 20th centuries.This industry is an interesting case to analyse from the perspective of energy transition and the composition and change of capital stock (classified by energy technology). in-depth review of the this topic will ena
The present minireview of the place of cystatin C in clinical medicine emphasizes, and discuss the evidence, that cystatin C-based GFR-estimating equations do not require the use of vague terms like race and sex, that cystatin C-based GFR-esti mating equations are useful for both children and adults, including the elderly, that the best GFR-estimation requires simultaneous use of both cystatin C-
Local renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in female reproductive system is involved in many physiological and pathological processes, such as follicular development, ovarian angiogenesis, ovarian, and endometrial cancer progress. However, studies on the functional relevance of RAS in human endometrium are limited, especially for renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). In this study, we defined the
Neurons are continuously generated from stem cells in the hippocampus and along the lateral ventricles in the adult brain. Neural stem cells can be propagated in vitro in the presence of epidermal growth factor (EGF) or fibroblast growth factor-2. We report here that amphiregulin, a growth factor related to EGF, is a mitogen for adult mouse neural stem cells in vitro and displays potency similar t
Electric vehicles could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and deliver a sustainable transport system. But the full life cycle of electric vehicles needs to be considered in order to avoid creating resource issues while trying to achieve the necessary climate goals.

Huntington's disease (HD) is a devastating, neurodegenerative condition, which lacks effective treatment. Normal Huntingtin (HTT) and mutant Huntingtin (mHTT) are expressed in multiple tissues and can alter transcription of microRNAs (miRs). Importantly, miRs are present in a bio-stable form in human peripheral blood plasma and have recently been shown to be useful biomarkers in other diseases. We
