Sammanfattning: Torvhorisonter med stora mängder subfossila stubbar och rötter av tall (Pinus sylvestris) förekommer ofta i nordeuropeiska torvmossar. De visar att mossarna varit tallbevuxna under delar av Holocen. Det antas att perioder med relativt låg mossefuktighet har förstärkt etableringen av dessa mossetallar och att hydrologiska förändringar har påverkat tillväxt och degeneration hos tallaAbstract: Peat horizons with numerous subfossil stumps and roots of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris), frequently occurring in northern European peat bogs, are reveling periods with considerable pine growth on the bogs during the Holocene. It is assumed that periods with relatively low bog surface wetness (BSW) have enhanced establishment of bog-pines in the past and that hydrological changes have inf

Popular summary The fate of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs The knowledge about distribution of drugs between sewage sludge, water phases and water living organisms is vital for predictions of the fate and transport routes of toxic substances to the environment. And the distribution of drugs in the environment can be used as a base for risk assessments and it also can be used to define desir

BACKGROUND. A patient with follicular lymphoma was investigated with 0.5 mg Fab' anti-CD22 labeled with 1100 MBq technetium-99m (Tc-99m). A computed tomography scan performed a week later revealed regression. This unexpected response prompted an investigation of single cell dosimetry of low-energy electron emitters. METHODS. Another patient with low-grade, unclassifiable B-cell lymphoma with a low

The goal of this research is to asses the reach and characteristics of the Phantasmatic as a proposed concept, useful to understand fundamental aspects of the romantic subjective experience in artists, aesthetes and writers. This experiential level has been exemplified in artists that had been living or intermittently residing in Dresden during the first half of 19th century. Caspar David Friedric

Objective: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) can occur in association with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitis (AAV-ILD) or as an isolated entity with positive ANCA (ANCA-ILD). However, data on the epidemiology and outcomes of these conditions remain limited. Methods: A European multicenter retrospective study encompassed patients with AAV-ILD or ANCA-ILD. Baseline and s

Background: Cancer care for individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) is challenging, with evidence of disparities, late diagnoses, and overlooked experiences of the individuals in question.Aim: To explore how individuals with concomitant ID and cancer experience the illness and navigate cancer care trajectories and everyday life from perspectives of themselves, their relatives and professio

BACKGROUND: Children, adolescents, and young adults with cancer (referred to as CAYAs) are at risk of long-term health complications, with cardiovascular disease (CVD) being a major concern. In addition, sociodemographic characteristics and traditional cardiovascular risk factors may also contribute to disparities in outcomes compared with those of the general population. The aim of this study was

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to describe and present the outcomes of a specific treatment protocol for aortic vascular graft and endograft infections (VGEIs) without explantation of the infected graft.METHODS: This was a retrospective, observational single centre cohort study carried out between 2012 and 2022 at a tertiary hospital. An aortic VGEI was defined according to the Management of

Objective/Background The objective was to analyze the long-term durability of intra-operatively placed Palmaz stents for type Ia endoleaks, and the evolution of aneurysm neck morphology. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study conducted at a tertiary referral centre. Patients treated between 1998 and 2012 were reviewed with regard to pre-, intra-, and post-operative data. Crude and relative

CONTEXT: Neurotensin is associated with cardiometabolic diseases but its role with mortality risk in humans is unknown.OBJECTIVE: This work aims to examine the prediction of proneurotensin (Pro-NT) with respect to total and cause-specific mortality in a middle-aged cohort.METHODS: In the population-based middle-aged cohort (n = 4632; mean age, 57 years) of the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study, Pro-NT w

Objective: Stroke and carotid atherosclerosis are associated with dementia. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) reduces stroke risk, although its effect on later dementia is uncertain. Participants in the Asymptomatic Carotid Surgery Trial (ACST-1), randomly allocated to immediate vs. deferral of CEA (i.e., no intervention unless or until triggered by ipsilateral transient ischaemic attack or stroke), we

BACKGROUND: Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is much less common in the upper than in the lower extremity. Furthermore, there is limited information on risk factors for and the prognosis of upper extremity (UE)DVT in the general population. AIMS: To estimate incidence, risk factors, and prognosis in UEDVT. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Among a total of 1203 patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) diagnosed

PURPOSE Effective treatments are needed for melanoma that progresses on inhibitors of programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) or its ligand (PD-L1). We conducted the phase II LEAP-004 study to evaluate the combination of the multikinase inhibitor lenvatinib and the PD-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab in this population (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03776136).METHODSEligible patients with unresectable

OBJECTIVE To estimate the risk of all cause and cause specific mortality in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) compared with matched unaffected people from the general population and with their unaffected siblings. DESIGN Population based matched cohort and sibling cohort study. SETTING Register linkage in Sweden. PARTICIPANTS Population based cohort including 61 378 people with OCD a

Background: Left atrial appendage (LAA) occluder embolization is an infrequent but serious complication. Objectives: We aim to describe timing, management and clinical outcomes of device embolization in a multi-center registry. Methods: Patient characteristics, imaging findings and procedure and follow-up data were collected retrospectively. Device embolizations were categorized according to 1) ti

In Sweden during the 1940s and 50s, many artistically ambitious filmmakers, like Arne Sucksdorff, Gösta Werner, and Peter Weiss, sought and gained financial aid from sponsors within the industry. Whereas many sponsored films document and communicate industrial processes, these films are more creatively oriented and experiment with film as an artistic expression. Although economic concerns undoubte

Purpose: Paleolithic Diet Fraction (PDF) estimates how large a portion of the absolute dietary intake stems from food groups included in the Paleolithic diet. In randomized controlled trials higher PDFs have been associated with healthier levels of cardiometabolic risk markers. Our aim was to build upon these findings by examining associations between PDF and mortality and incidence of cardiometab

Background : In order to increase access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) in HIV-infected children, paediatric HIV care has been introduced in health centres in Ethiopia, where patients are managed by health professionals with limited training. Objective : To compare outcomes of paediatric HIV care in hospital and health centre clinics and to determine risk factors for death and loss to follow-up (
