Popular Abstract in Swedish Under de senaste åren har nödvändigheten att ta hänsyn till utsatta grupper i den svenska befolkningen och deras varierande behov lyfts fram i rapporter och utredningar om utformningen av vård och rehabilitering av äldre. En sådan utsatt grupp är äldre teckenspråkliga döva. Svårigheten att kommunicera, i kombination med åldersrelaterade sjukdomar, funktionsbegränsningarVery little is known about the consequences of aging and the wellbeing of deaf sign language users. This thesis contributes to filling this knowledge gap. The overarching aim was to gain further understanding and to increase the knowledge about quality of life, in terms of subjective wellbeing and health, activity and social contacts, among older deaf sign language users. After having established

Introduction: Four-dimensional (4D) flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables kinetic energy (KE) quantification of intraventricular blood flow. In this study we aimed to quantify the KE in in patients with univentricular heart and to assess the change in the KE after different types of interventions. Methods: 4D flow MRI was acquired in patients with Fontan circulation (n=12; median age 12, r

The existing information supports the use of this material as described in this safety assessment. Hexyl hexanoate was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity/photoallergenicity, skin sensitization, and environmental safety. Data from read-across analog hexyl isobutyrate (CAS # 2349-07-7) show that hexyl hexanoate is not

Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome-positive leukemia is characterized by the BCR/ABL1 fusion protein that affects a wide range of signal transduction pathways. The knowledge about its downstream target genes is, however, still quite limited. To identify novel BCR/ABL1-regulated genes we used global gene expression profiling of several Ph-positive and Ph-negative cell lines treated with imatinib. Followi

The incidence of stroke and dementia are diverging across the world, rising for those in low- and middle-income countries and falling in those in high-income countries. This suggests that whatever factors cause these trends are potentially modifiable. At the population level, neurological disorders as a group account for the largest proportion of disability-adjusted life years globally (10%). Amon

Background: This prospective study focuses on factors associated with arterial damage in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Materials and Methods: Eighty children and adolescents with T1D (mean age 15, range: 8-20 yrs; mean diabetes duration 7, range: 0.5 to 19 years) were investigated twice, approximately 2 years apart, for carotid artery intima-media thickness (cIMT) and compliance (CAC), flow

Importance: International guidelines recommend body temperature control below 37.8 °C in unconscious patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA); however, a target temperature of 33 °C might lead to better outcomes when the initial rhythm is nonshockable. Objective: To assess whether hypothermia at 33 °C increases survival and improves function when compared with controlled normothermia in

Aim: Assess the prognostic ability of a non-highly malignant and reactive EEG to predict good outcome after cardiac arrest (CA). Methods: Prospective observational multicentre substudy of the “Targeted Hypothermia versus Targeted Normothermia after Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest Trial”, also known as the TTM2-trial. Presence or absence of highly malignant EEG patterns and EEG reactivity to externa

Natural sounds, and bird song in particular, play a key role in building and maintaining our connection with nature, but widespread declines in bird populations mean that the acoustic properties of natural soundscapes may be changing. Using data-driven reconstructions of soundscapes in lieu of historical recordings, here we quantify changes in soundscape characteristics at more than 200,000 sites

Purpose: Hyperoxemia is common in patients resuscitated after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and may increase the risk of mortality. However, the effect of hyperoxemia on functional outcome, specifically related to the timing of exposure to hyperoxemia, remains unclear. Methods: The secondary analysis of the Target Temperature Management 2 (TTM-2) r

Advances in liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry have significantly improved proteomic analyses of human plasma. However, information at the level of intact proteoforms remains limited due to the high dynamic range of protein abundance and the complexity of post-translational modifications. To address this challenge, we introduce soluble plasma proteoform analysis via acetonitrile precipitation

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasingly diagnosed early, close to its first occurrence due to: (i) increased public awareness with self-screening; (ii) health care initiatives including population screening and opportunistic case finding; and (iii) increased use and surveillance of implantable cardiac devices. At its onset, AF is often low burden, and cardiovascular co-morbidities may be absent o

BackgroundImmune-related hepatitis (ir-hepatitis) ranks among the most frequent adverse events of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Limited knowledge exists regarding the incidence, characteristics, and treatment of patients having an inadequate response to initial therapy with steroids. Characterizing ir-hepatitis phenotypes and treatment responses can provide valuable insights for guiding tre
