OBJECTIVES: To analyse survival rates and the causes of death in a systemic sclerosis (SSc) population, and to evaluate the occurrence of fatal malignant neoplasms and their possible association with oral cyclophosphamide (CYC) treatment. METHODS: Survival was calculated for 249 SSc patients followed up for up to 13 years. Mean (SD) follow up was 5.8 (4.2) years. The 49 decreased patients were sub

Aim: To record blood flow velocimetry in the superior mesenteric, hepatic and middle cerebral arteries for detection of circulation redistribution and prediction of perinatal outcome in fetuses with absent or reversed diastolic flow in the umbilical artery. Study design: The fetal superior mesenteric, hepatic and middle cerebral artery blood velocimetry was recorded in 33 pregnancies complicated b

Background: A family history of melanoma is associated with an increased risk of melanoma and probably of other, discordant cancers. Limited data are available on familial mortality in melanoma. If fatal forms of melanoma were associated with fatal forms of melanoma or of some other cancers, only studies on familial mortality rather than on familial incidence might be able to detect them. Furtherm

OBJECTIVE: Elevated levels of blood leukocytes have been associated with acute coronary events (CEs), but data on leukocyte subclasses are limited. This study aimed to explore whether blood lymphocyte and neutrophil counts are associated with incidence of CEs and with fatal outcome in subjects who subsequently experienced a first CE. METHODS AND RESULTS: Neutrophil and lymphocyte counts were measu

The aim: To record blood flow velocimetry in the fetal superior mesenteric artery in normal pregnancy and to evaluate if blood flow recordings in the vessel might predict adverse outcome in high-risk pregnancy. Methods: The fetal superior mesenteric artery blood velocimetry was recorded in a cross sectional manner in 75 normal pregnancies between 27 and 41 weeks of gestation. Reference curves were

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from 21 patients with a clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) participating in a 5-year treatment study with the choline esterase inhibitor tacrin were retrospectively analyzed for the contents of beta-amyloid (Abeta42), total tau (T-tau) and phosphorylated tau (P-tau). A significant positive correlation between the level of P-tau and the number of sympto

Aim: The aim was to scrutinize the report in March 2023 that Sweden’s excess mortality was lowest in 2020–2022 compared with other European Union and Nordic countries, a report that received great national and international attention. Study design: Comparison of excess mortality in Sweden and Norway. Methods: Excess mortality for 2020–2022 was calculated for Sweden and Norway, the country with per

Nödvärnsrätten stadgas i 24 kap. 1 § BrB. En handling som företagits i en nödvärnssituation är tillåten så länge den inte är uppenbart oförsvarlig. Om den angripne handlar uppenbart oförsvarligt, det vill säga nödvärnsexcess, går personen ändå fri från ansvar om denne svårligen kunde besinna sig. Detta fastställs i 24 kap. 6 § BrB. I denna uppsats undersöks vilka principer som styr domstolens föThe right of self-defense is stated in Chapter 24 section 1 in BrB (the Swedish penal code). An action taken in self-defense is allowed as long as it is not obviously unjustifiable. If the act is obviously unjustifiable, i.e. excessive self-defense, the attacked person can still avoid responsibility if the circumstances were such that he could hardly control himself. This provision is stated in Ch

Popular Abstract in Swedish Carex humilis - en ringbildande klonväxt Växter som kan föröka sig asexuellt kallas klonväxter. Det genetiska individet (geneten) består då av flera självständiga plantor (rameter). Exempel på klonväxter är hallon, jordgubbe, kvickrot, potatis, tulpan och vitsippa. Den här avhandlingen handlar om ett centraleuropeiskt klonalt halvgräs, som heter Carex humilis på latin Carex humilis forms rings of densely aggregated ramets in dry grassland vegetation in Central Europe. In the thesis I conclude that ramet demography is important both for analyzing fitness in clonal plants and for understanding how C. humilis rings are formed. I studied the ramet demography of C. humilis from 1993-1998 at the Hexenberg mountain, 300 m.a.s., 60 km east of Vienna, Austria. In total,

En omfattande samling koproliter från tre lokaler med sediment från sen kritatid i Münsterbassängen (nordvästra Tyskland) har studerats med en mängd olika analytiska tekniker med avsikten att belysa urtida trofiska nivåer och relationen mellan rovdjur och bytesdjur. Den fosfatiska sammansättningen, inneslutningar av benmaterial, storlek och form tyder på att de flesta eller samtliga koproliter proA large number of coprolites from three localities with Upper Cretaceous strata from the Münster Basin (northwestern Germany) have been subjected to a wide array of analytical techniques with the aim of shedding some light on ancient trophic structures and predator–prey interactions. The phosphatic composition, bone inclusions, size and morphology suggest that most or all coprolites were produced

Studien är en diskursanalys av statens språkbruk i rättsfallet mellan samebyn Girjas och svenska staten i Högsta domstolen. Girjas stämde staten år 2009 i Gäl-livare tingsrätt och ärendet avslutades i Högsta domstolen i Stockholm år 2020. Girjas fick ensamrätt på jakt och fiske på samebyns område, vilket gör att de lättare kan förvalta rennäringen i samband med jakten och fisket. Sverige har bliviThis study analyses the discourse used by the Swedish state in the trial between the Saami village of Girjas and the Swedish state in the Swedish Supreme court. Girjas sued the State for the first time in 2009, and then took the case to the su-preme court in 2020. The people of Girjas won the hunting and fishing rights on the land in question thanks to the concept of prescription from time immemor

Popular Abstract in English In this thesis I will compare and contrast two willow warbler subspecies, each with different migratory programs that meet in Central Sweden forming a migratory divide and hybrid zone. These migratory programs differ in the direction and distance traveled during migration. The "northern" willow warblers migrate south-southeast through the Balkan Peninsula to winter in eIn this thesis I will compare and contrast the two willow warbler subspecies (Phylloscopus trochilus trochilus and P. t. acredula) with differing migratory phenotypes (or "migratype") in the context of their migratory divide and hybrid zone in central Sweden. Their migratory programs differ in the direction and distance traveled during migration. The "northern" willow warblers migrate south-southe

Popular Abstract in Swedish Helicobacter pylori och Chlamydia pneumoniae är två mycket vanliga smittämnen i den svenska befolkningen. De vanliga kliniska manifestationerna är magsår respektive luftvägsinfektioner. På senare tid har det också diskuterats huruvida de kan bana väg för sjukdomsmanifestationer även inom andra organsystem. I många fall har de studeras var för sig men betydligt mera sällHelicobacter pylori and Chlamydia pneumoniae are common infectious agents in the Swedish population, causing gastritis ulcers and respiratory infections. The metabolic syndrome is characterised by overweight, insulin resistance, hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidaemia. Sera from a patient cohort (n=531) originally examined in 1987-89 were investigated for previous infection of H. pylori and C. pn
