The ongoing pursuit of advanced multicomponent magnetic nanomaterials with tailored functionalities for applications in data storage, spintronics, and biomedicine necessitates novel synthesis approaches beyond conventional template-based methods. In response, this thesis investigates the generation, self-assembly, and characterisation of largely little-known Fe0.10Ni0.40Co0.25Pt0.25 medium-entropy
High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the most lethal subtype of ovarian cancer and remains a major clinical challenge due to frequent late diagnosis and limited treatment options. This study investigates the therapeutic potential of targeting the oncogenic interaction between metadherin (MTDH) and staphylococcal nuclease domain-containing 1 (SND1) which are proteins known to promote tumor p
India's buildings sector accounts for 41% of national electricity consumption, yet studies incorporating calibrated whole-building energy simulation with thermal comfort evaluation of manufacturing facilities to reduce the industry’s electricity consumption remain scarce, leaving designers without evidence to prioritise passive strategies for this building typology. This study characterises th
High grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is accompanied by an immune-rich but heterogenous tumor microenvironment. Although tumor associated tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are linked to favourable antitumor immunity, B cells may also adopt spatial distribution patterns favourable for immune suppression. This study evaluated whether the abundance and spatial distribution patterns of CD20+ B cel

BACKGROUND: Infections caused by Chlamydia pneumoniae are considered to participate in inflammatory processes leading to coronary artery disease. After a primary infection, the bacteria remain dormant intracellularly causing a chronic inflammatory stimulus. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Blood samples were obtained from 235 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and 108 patients with unstable ang
Aims: This study used nationwide hospital records to examine sibling risk of any type of anxiety disorder in Sweden over a 40-year period. Methods: This study, carried out between 1 January 1968 and 31 December 2007, of the entire population of Sweden, linked information on family relationships from the nationwide Multi-Generation Register with information from the nationwide Swedish Hospital Disc
Malunion after a distal radius fracture can be treated with an osteotomy of the distal radius. Autologous iliac crest bone graft is often used to fill the gap, but the procedure is associated with donor site morbidity. In this study a novel fast resorbing biphasic bone substitute consisting of a mixture of calcium sulphate and calcium phosphate is used (Cerament BoneSupport AB, Sweden). Fifteen co
Habeb AM, Al-Magamsi MSF, Halabi S, Eid IM, Shalaby S, Bakoush O. High incidence of childhood type 1 diabetes in Al-Madinah, North West Saudi Arabia (2004-2009). Background: There is a geographical variation in the incidence of childhood type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) with a steady increase reported from some countries. However, data on the incidence of childhood T1DM in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia a
AIM: To evaluate long-term endocrine and exocrine pancreatic function, quality of life and health care costs after mild acute pancreatitis and severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). METHODS: Patients prospectively included in 2001-2005 were followed-up after 42 (36-53) mo. Pancreatic function was evaluated with laboratory tests, the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), fecal elastase-1 and a questionnair
OBJECTIVE: This study examined all-cause mortality in stroke patients with and without documented atrial fibrillation (AF), and the impact of CHADS(2) score. DESIGN: A cohort of 105,074 patients, 31,821 (30.3%) with and 73,253 (69.7%) without documented AF, was studied. These patients were registered in the Swedish Stroke Registry during the years 2001-2005. Mortality data were retrieved from the
We sought to assess the feasibility and estimate the benefit of sparing the neurogenic niches when irradiating the brain of pediatric patients with medulloblastoma (MB) based on clinical outcome data. Pediatric MB survivors experience a high risk of neurocognitive adverse effects, often attributed to the whole-brain irradiation that is part of standard management. Neurogenesis is very sensitive to
HAMLET is the first member of a new family of tumoricidal protein-lipid complexes that kill cancer cells broadly, while sparing healthy, differentiated cells. Many and diverse tumor cell types are sensitive to the lethal effect, suggesting that HAMLET identifies and activates conserved death pathways in cancer cells. Here, we investigated the molecular basis for the difference in sensitivity betwe
BACKGROUND:: The increased cancer risk among patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is well reported, whereas studies regarding the cancer prognosis with IBD have shown conflicting results. We aimed at assessing and quantifying the cause-specific and overall mortality among cancer patients with IBD compared to those without IBD. METHODS:: The population-based Swedish registers we
Background and Aims: Although endovascular stent treatment is increasingly used in infrain-guinal atherosclerotic occlusive disease, outcome with focus on gender differences has not been reported in detail. Material and Methods: One hundred and twelve consecutive patients (67 [60%]) women, un-dergoing endovascular nitinol stent treatment of atherosclerotic lesions in the femoropopliteal segment
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is characterized by the t(11;14)(q13;q32) and numerous copy number aberrations (CNAs). Recently, gene expression profiling defined a proliferation gene expression signature in MCL where high scores predict shorter survival. We investigated 31 MCL cases using high-density single nucleotide polymorphism arrays and correlated CNA patterns with the proliferation signature an
OBJECTIVES:: In a Swedish celiac disease screening study (Exploring the Iceberg of Celiacs in Sweden), we systematically reviewed the clinical diagnostic procedures with the aim to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and to take advantage of lessons learned for improving diagnostic routines. MATERIALS AND METHODS:: A school-based celiac disease screening study involving 5 Swedish centers, with 10,041
We aimed to estimate the 15-year and lifetime risks of contralateral breast cancer in breast cancer patients according to the age of diagnosis of the first cancer and the history of breast cancer in the mother. The risks of contralateral breast cancer were estimated for all 78,775 breast cancer patients in the Swedish Family-Cancer Database (age at diagnosis of first breast cancer <70 years). The
