Aims: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients with a clinical phenotype characterized by a high degree of insulin resistance are at increased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We previously demonstrated that the endothelin receptor antagonist (ERA) atrasentan reduced insulin resistance in T2D. In this study, we compared the effect of atrasentan on insulin resistance across different phenotypic clusters
Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with pathogenic mitochondrial (mt)DNA mutations. The majority of mtDNA point mutations have a heteroplasmic status, which is defined as the coexistence of wild-type and mutated DNA within a cell or tissue. Previous findings demonstrated that certain mtDNA heteroplasmic mutations contribute to widely spread chronic diseases, including cancer, and alterations
Colored sticky traps are used for management of many common agricultural insect pests. Several recent studies have shown that traps can be improved by systematically considering properties of color vision for the target species. In the current study, we extend this approach to spatial vision, using information about the interommatidial angle of an agriculturally important insect pest, western flow
AIMS: Previous studies show inconsistencies in vasovagal syncope (VVS) symptoms and haemodynamic responses across age and sex groups, with limited evaluation of tilt test results. This study comprehensively examines differences in triggers, prodromal and syncopal symptoms, and head-up tilt test (HUTT) responses among VVS patients by age and sex providing new insights.METHODS AND RESULTS: We analys
Sundarban mangrove is the largest continuous mangrove forest in the world and is the habitat of an incredible amount of biodiversity. Biodiversity loss and degradation of this highly ecologically productive mangrove forest due to climate change will have a tremendous impact on the livelihood of the people living in the deltaic region. The present study was aimed to find out the dynamics of change
A Credit Default Swap spread is a reliable measure of credit risk as it is the compensation demanded by a party to bear this risk. Officially, credit risk is denoted as credit ratings announced by credit rating agencies. Since rating announcements contain information regarding credit risk, the market should incorporate this new information into the CDS spread. The aim of this study is to investiga
The aim of this research project was to create a bioinformatic image analysis pipeline for the investigation of lymphocytes in healthy human lungs. The lung is an important organ to study as it provides a fast way for pathogens to enter the body. Therefore, the pulmonary immune system must be further investigated in both healthy and diseased tissue. In order to do comparative studies, we need to c
Background This study aimed to describe the incidence rate, patient characteristics, treatments, and outcomes of adults hospitalized with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia. Methods This retrospective cohort study included adults diagnosed with M pneumoniae pneumonia and admitted to emergency care hospitals in Stockholm County, Sweden, from 2013 to 2017. Patients were identified through positive M pn
Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by a prominent desmoplastic stroma, which plays a crucial role in tumor biology and treatment resistance. While the stromal compartment is a defining histopathological feature of PDAC, its prognostic significance remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to quantify the stromal content in PDAC using digital pathology and
Objectives The aim was to estimate the prevalence and risk of respiratory symptoms among workers exposed to epoxy resin systems in the wind turbine industry. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study including 180 epoxy-exposed production workers from two Danish wind turbine blade factories and 41 non-exposed office workers. Respiratory symptoms were defined as having two or more symptoms (i.e.
The first aim of this study was to on historical background survey women's alcohol habits and especially to investigate women aged 50-59 living in the Lund area. The second aim was to increase the understanding of how women's sex role has a restrictive influence on their alcohol habits. To investigate women's alcohol habits I made two quantitative studies. From secondary data I found t

Fakta: Många välkända och framgångsrika naturvetare och ingenjörer inspirerades av att se månlandningarna när de var barn. Utgångspunkt: Rymdkapplöpningen genererade flera biprodukter – teknologier som utvecklats för rymdprogrammet men som sedan har visat sig vara nyttiga även på jorden. Fråga: Ska vi verkligen bara sitta här på jorden när det finns ett helt universum att utforska därute? Jag tyck
