BACKGROUND: Pain is a common complaint presented in healthcare, but most epidemiological pain research has focused either on single pain conditions or on the adult population. The aim of this study was to investigate the 2017 consultation prevalence of a wide range of pain conditions in the general population of young people.METHODS: We used the Skåne Healthcare Register, covering prospectively co

OBJECTIVE.: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease with chronic or episodic inflammation in several organ systems, related to the presence of circulating and tissue-deposited immune complexes (ICs) which stimulate leukocytes through FcγRs with subsequent inflammation. Treatment with EndoS, an IgG glycan hydrolyzing bacterial enzyme from Streptococcus pyogenes, has shown benefi

Background: Predicting severe preeclampsia with need for intensive care is challenging. To better predict high-risk pregnancies to prevent adverse outcomes such as eclampsia is still an unmet need worldwide. In this study we aimed to develop a prediction model for severe outcomes using routine biomarkers and clinical characteristics. Methods: We used machine learning models based on data from an i

Feathers comprise a series of evolutionary innovations but also harbour colour, a key biological trait known to co-vary with life history or complex traits. Those relationships are particularly true in melanin-based pigmentation species due to known pleiotropic effects of the melanocortin pathway – originating from melanin-associated phenotypes. Here, we explore the molecular basis of melanin colo

Popular Abstract in Swedish Behandlingsideologier och arbetsmodeller avlöser varandra snabbt i dagens samhälle. Att hänga med i det nya och samtidigt försvara det arbete som man gör eller tidigare gjort är en problematik som allt fler ställs inför. I spelet mellan olika inriktningar byggs det upp en argumentation. I denna avhandling analyseras hur anställda vid en psykiatrisk vårdinstitution, specTreatment ideologies and working models replace each other quickly in today's society. During the 1980s a dramatic dismantling of the psychiatric institutions occurred. The health care system was supposed to be transferred to non-institutional care. This was, however, not possible for all groups of patients. At an institution, specialized in so called demanding patients and patients who received c

Objectives: This study aimed to describe the clinical experience of the health-care professionals (HCPs) responsible for the introduction of methadone, for the treatment of complex cancer pain, at a low-resource hospital in India in a patient-group, burdened by illiteracy, and low socio-economic status. Materials and Methods: Ten HCPs: Four medical doctors, four nurses, one pharmacist, and one hos

Popular Abstract in Swedish Man har länge känt till att högt blodtryck {hypertoni}, bukfetma och sockersjuka {ålders diabetes} existerar samtidigt hos en och samma individ. Under de senaste decennierna har forskare försökt att hitta en gemensam mekanism till dessa tillstånd. Framför allt de senaste åren har man riktat uppmärksamheten mot det fett- och sockerreglerande hormonet insulin som tycks vaHypertensive individuals, even non-obese, have been shown to be resistant to the insulin-mediated glucose uptake in peripheral tissues {mainly skeletal muscle}. The aim of this study was to investigate hypothetical pathophysiological mechanisms for the development of hypertension with regard to insulin sensitivity in normotensive men with a family history of hypertension (RELs) as compared to men

4-5.1 Sammanfattning av Glutamat och GABA vid Schizofreni1H-MRS och kronisk schizofreni1H-MRS visar att alla Schizofreni patienter hade ett signifikant lägre N-AcetylAsparagin-syra(NAA) till Kreatin(Cr) nivåförhållande i frontalloben än kontrollerna. Resultaten indikerar att det finns ett samband mellan det Glutamat-erga systemet och patofysiologin vid Schizofreni. (Szulc et al., 2013).GABA och gl

Background: Little attention has been given to the risk of cardiovascular and psychiatric comorbidities during the clinical evaluation of a suspected hematological malignancy.Methods: Based on Skåne Healthcare Register, we performed a population-based cohort study of 1,527,449 individuals residing during 2005-2014 in Skåne, Sweden. We calculated the incidence rate ratios (IRRs) of cardiovascular d

The combustion engine, a well-known source of aerosols, has seen remarkable improvements regarding efficiency and emissions. A drawback of the conventional compression ignition (CI) engine is its requirement for a high cetane number fuel, i.e. diesel which contains long carbon chains forming particulate matter (PM) when combusted in the conventional diesel combustion (CDC) process. A previous stud

OBJECTIVE: To study the association between sperm deoxyribonucleic acid fragmentation index (DFI) and the odds of preeclampsia and other adverse perinatal outcomes after in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment.DESIGN: A prospective cohort study including infertile couples undergoing conventional IVF or ICSI treatment and their children. Data regarding pre

Ordered arrays of nanocrystals, called supercrystals, have attracted significant attention owing to the collective quantum effects arising from the coupling between neighboring nanocrystals. In particular, lead halide perovskite nanocrystals are widely used because of the combination of the optical properties and faceted cubic shape, which enables the formation of highly ordered supercrystals. The

Background: Hosts are often simultaneously infected with several parasite species. These co-infections can lead to within-host interactions of parasites, including mutualism and competition, which may affect both virulence and transmission. Birds are frequently co-infected with different haemosporidian parasites, but very little is known about if and how these parasites interact in natural host po

Mito-nuclear insertions, or NUMTs, relate to genetic material of mitochondrial origin that have been transferred to the nuclear DNA molecule. The increasing amounts of genomic data currently being produced presents an opportunity to investigate this type of patterns in genome evolution of non-model organisms. Identifying NUMTs across a range of closely related taxa allows one to generalize pattern

Background: Selection pressure exerted by pathogens can influence patterns of genetic diversity in the host. In the immune system especially, numerous genes encode proteins involved in antagonistic interactions with pathogens, paving the way for coevolution that results in increased genetic diversity as a consequence of balancing selection. The complement system is a key component of innate immuni
