Background: Several factors have been reported that influence the probability of a germline CDKN2A mutation in a melanoma family. Our goal was to create a scoring system to estimate this probability, based on a set of clinical features present in the patient and his or her family. Methods: Five clinical features and their association with CDKN2A mutations were investigated in a training cohort of

Popular Abstract in Swedish I Sverige utförs cirka 3500 benamputationer varje år. Över 90% av alla amputationer görs på grund av kärlsjukdomar, där förträngningar i blodkärlen försämrar blodflödet med vävnadsdöd och vanligen kallbrand som följd. Det finns i huvudsak tre faktorer som ökar risken för amputation på grund av kärlsjukdom; ålder *80 år, rökning och diabetes. Om man inte tillhör någon avGeneral characteristics and outcome was evaluated in 177 consecutive patients who underwent a major amputation in a defined population. Smoking and diabetes lowered the mean amputation age. Healing failure at six months was seen in 24% of transtibial and in 11% of transfemoral amputees. Preoperative absence of gangrene and hemoglobin >120 g/L increased the risk of healing failure. Six months after

PURPOSE: This study aimed to examine the associations between the intake of high- and low-fat fermented dairy (cheese and fermented milk), their proteomic profiles, and mortality risk.METHODS: This cohort study included 25,187 participants (mean age 57.7 years, 60.9% females). Fermented dairy intake was assessed by a modified diet history method. In a random subset of this cohort (n = 4359), we co

Energi och klimatpåverkan är ständigt aktuellt i dagens samhälle. För att motverka den globala uppvärmningen har EU tagit fram klimatmål där bland annat energianvändningen ska minska med 20 % mot 1990 års nivåer år 2020. En stor andel av energianvändningen orsakas i Sverige idag av bygg- och fastighetsbranschen där byggnadsbeståndet står för ca 30 % av energianvändningen. För att klara EU:s klimEnergy use and climate impact are important topics in today’s society. To combat global warming, the EU has set a goal framework with a 20 % reduction target until 2020 for domestic energy use compared to 1990. Today, the building sector in Sweden accounts for 30 % of the domestic energy use. To achieve the goals for energy and climate set by the EU, changes are required. The Swedish parliament ha

The purpose of this article is to describe generally usable methods to measure the sound insulation of a facade in cases where a setup according to standards such as ISO 140/5 or ISO 16283/3 cannot be achieved. The methods discussed use a loudspeaker as the source of a test signal since background noise on the interior receiving side in many cases prevents the use of traffic as a noise source. The

Våra sinnen skärps när vi omger oss bland grönska, djur och inte minst de olika årstidernas påverkan av upplevelsen i naturen. Att vistas i skog och mark har stor betydelse för människors hälsa och livskvalitet. I detta arbete har jag konstnärligt undersökt ett synliggörande av ett idag undangömt kulturlandskap sydväst om Kalmar. Ett område innehållande unika och höga naturupplevelsevärden där jaAll our senses sharpen when we surround ourselves with greenery and animals. The seasons does also affect the experience among ora, fauna, light and warmth. Just to be in nature has a big impact on people’s health and life quality. In this project I have examined how to with artistic means make a hidden cultural landscape, southeast of Kalmar, visible. This with constructing unique and fine natur
