Background: When discontinuation in COPD randomized controlled trials (RCTs) is unevenly distributed between treatments (differential dropout), the capacity to demonstrate treatment effects may be reduced. We investigated the impact of the time of differential dropout on exacerbation outcomes in RCTs, in relation to study duration and COPD severity. Methods: A post hoc analysis of 2,345 patients f

This study presents a 2-yr follow-up of 281 patients, aged 15-34 yr, diagnosed with diabetes between 1992 and 1993. At diagnosis, 224 (80%) patients were positive for at least one of the following autoantibodies: islet cell antibodies (ICAs), glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies (GADAs), or tyrosine phosphatase antibodies (IA-2As); the remaining 57 (20%) patients were negative for all three auto

OBJECTIVE:: Caesarean section (C-section) is associated with various immune-mediated diseases in the offspring. We investigated the relationship between mode of delivery and celiac disease (CD) and CD autoimmunity (CDA) in a multinational birth cohort. METHODS:: From 2004 to 2010 infants from the general population who tested positive for HLA DR3-DQ2 or DR4-DQ8 were enrolled in The Environmental D

Background: Dark skin and low exposure to sunlight increase the risk of Vitamin D insufficiency in children. Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the amount of Vitamin D needed to ascertain that most children > 4 y of age attain sufficient serum25-hydroxyVitamin D [S-25(OH)D; i.e.,≥50 nmol/L] during winter regardless of latitude and skin color. Design: In a longitudinal, double-blind, r

Background: The K3326X variant in BRCA2 (BRCA2∗c.9976A>T p.Lys3326∗rs11571833) has been found to be associated with small increased risks of breast cancer. However, it is not clear to what extent linkage disequilibrium with fully pathogenic mutations might account for this association. There is scant information about the effect of K3326X in other hormonerelated cancers. Methods: Using weighted lo

INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have shown an increased risk of obstetric complications in pregnancies after oocyte donation (OD). The present study includes all singletons born after OD during 10 years in Sweden.MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective cohort study that included data from all Swedish in vitro fertilization (IVF) clinics between 2003 and 2012 was performed. Data were cross-linked with

Introduction: This study evaluated lipid identification using mass spectrometry. Background: Three main modes of acquisition are used in mass spectrometry of lipids; data-independent acquisition (DIA), data-dependent acquisition (DDA) and targeted acquisition. DIA is the most including one, yielding a complete but complex data set, while targeted is the least including one, basing acquisition on

PCDD/Fs and dl-PCBs, or more commonly referred to as dioxin and dioxin like substances are compounds present in our surrounding environment. As some congeners of these have been shown to be toxic, they are regulated under the Stockholm Convention. As dioxins are persistent in biota and have lipophilic properties they are seen accumulating in lipid rich fish in the Baltic, one of the affected speci

Most migratory bird species divide their migration in stages of flight and stopovers. They use these stopovers to refuel the energy reserves needed to face their long migration journeys. These stopovers are an important element to determine the overall migration speed. Time spent on migration and arrival date to the wintering grounds have been demonstrated to have a large effects the following bre

Kolloider är partiklar i storleksordningen nm till μm. De är viktiga i biologiska system, där exempelvis proteiner är en typ av kolloid. Att studera kolloider ger oss därför insikt i hur till exempel proteiner byggs upp och interagerar. I detta fall försökte vi tillverka kolloidala molekyler, alltså kolloider som interagerar med varandra genom ett specifikt antal bindningar i väl definierade positThe ability of thermoresponsive, amine-functionalized microgel particles to take part in microgelmicrogel inter-cross-linking has previously been reported in the literature, in connection to applications such as for example the formation of stimuli-responsive colloidal gels and colloidosomes [1]. This thesis deals with the synthesis of such thermoresponsive, cross-linkable microgels and their subs

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Nonmetastatic (M0) clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) recurs in ∼20% of patients within 5 yr after surgery. With no biomarkers available, recurrence detection relies on radiological imaging. Urine glycosaminoglycan profiles (GAGomes) were previously associated with M0 ccRCC recurrence. We conducted an observational prospective multicentre diagnostic test cohort study

When patients experience peripheral vestibular or certain central disorders causing dizziness or vertigo, this is sometimes associated with experiencing also disrupted spatial orientation, which may be accentuated by exposure to a distorted visual environment. This study explores the impact of sensorimotor factors and sex on spatial orientation in sitting and standing positions. In the Rod-and-Fra

This thesis is done in cooperation with Dresser Wayne AB in Malmö and the objective has been to investigate if it is possible to use the X-flo meter, see Figure 1, in an LPG-dispencer. An increased pressure is used in the LPG-system, which involves a higher risk of leaking and strength problems. During the development consideration has been taken to a new outlet, though other couplings are used in

This thesis project was to develop a module for a forest precision seeder. The project is made at BCC AB. BCC is a worldwide supplier of forest seed centre and containerized nursery equipment. BCC develops, designs, produces and sales machines for forest seed handling. BCC s existing precision seeder can not handle seed that are tinier than 1 mm in diameter. With a growing market in countries with
