Hip and knee replacements are well established and effective treatments in patients suffering from end-stage OA. Understanding how T2DM influences the outcomes of these surgeries is important for optimising patient care and improving s
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a heterogeneous disease that develops through diverse pathophysiological processes1,2 and molecular mechanisms that are often specific to cell type3,4. Here, to characterize the genetic contribution to these processes across ancestry groups, we aggregate genome-wide association study data from 2,535,601 individuals (39.7% not of European ancestry), including 428,452 cases

AbstractIntroductionSelenium deficiency has been associated with mortality, cardiovascular disease and worsened prognosis in heart failure (HF). In a recent population-based study, high selenium levels were shown to be associated with reduced mortality and reduced incidence of HF, but only in non-smokers. Here, we aimed to examine if selenoprotein P (SELENOP), a main selenium carrier protein, is a
PURPOSE: (i) To report the prevalence of participants to a first-line intervention for OA in Sweden using over-the-counter (OTC) and/or prescribed NSAIDs; (ii) To estimate the accuracy of dispensed prescriptions of NSAIDs recorded in a Swedish health-care register to capture the use of NSAID considering clinician-report as reference standard.METHODS: Register-based study. We used data from OA indi
Mot bakgrund av inkorporeringen av barnkonventionen 1 januari 2020 är syftet med uppsatsen att undersöka om konventionen fått det genomslag i rättstillämpningen som lagstiftaren avsåg vid införandet av lagen.

They have a loose structure and the relations between members are often based on fri-endship and a common upbringing wh
I takt med att samhället utvecklas så förändras även kroppsidealen. Genom marknadsföring av skönhetsingrepp på sociala medier har ingrepp som faktiskt är förenade med stora hälsorisker blivit normaliserade.

As this also coincided with a rise of mass communications and increased education more people than e
This thesis aimed to explore the binding pocket of galectin-8N and galectin-3C. Both structure-based drug design and fragment-based drug discovery were utilized in this project, exemplifying the benefits of the different approaches. Structural determination of the proteins in complex with both high affinity ligands, and small fragments was achieved through x-ray crystallography. The structures of
