OBJECTIVE: Childhood obesity may impact the risk of islet autoimmunity (IA). The trajectory of BMI through childhood resembles the early peak incidence of first-appearing autoantibodies against insulin (IAA-first) but not GAD65 (GADA-first). We studied whether a child's BMI can impact the age-related risk of first-appearing IA phenotypes.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We identified 7,724 children at
This study examines how two collaborating professions, midwifery and obstetrics, are influenced by women requesting caesarean sections. The empirical material consists of semi-structured interviews with Swedish midwives (n=6) and obstetricians (n=6). Analysed through Tilly’s terms, the categorical pair and triad, midwife and obstetrician function as complementary categories in a triad with the wom
CD40-stimulating immunotherapy can elicit potent anti-tumor responses by activating dendritic cells and enhancing T-cell priming. Tumor vessels orchestrate T-cell recruitment during immune response, but the effect of CD40-stimulating immunotherapy on tumor endothelial cells has not been evaluated. Here, we have investigated how tumor endothelial cells transcriptionally respond to CD40-stimulating

This paper argues that although solidarity was developed as a principle in EU law to enhance the unity and cooperation between the Member States, its viability at the transnational level remains ultimately a function of its efficacy at the micro level of EU citizens. The question at the core of this inquiry concerns, therefore, how micro and macro dimensions of solidarity are related to each other
This paper presents a millimeter-wave (mm-wave) phase-locked loop (PLL), with an output frequency centered at 54.65 GHz. It demonstrates a mode-switching architecture that considerably improves the lock time, by seamlessly switching between a low-noise mode and a fast-locking mode that is only used during settling. The improvement is used to counteract the increased lock-time caused by cycle-slips
This is an explorative and, at times, tentative text on the potential meanings and uses of the concept Existential Sustainability in social work and social work research. The overall argument is that to create a positive change in the lives of people in general, service users more specifically, and to sustain such change over time, it is necessary to acknowledge an existential dimension and existe
This article compares Swedish social workers, teachers, and journalists’ experiences of workplace violence. It addresses similarities and differences between the three professional groups in terms of who exposed them to workplace violence, what it was about, and what triggered it. The article is based on an online survey study, and the findings suggest that consumer-related violence from target gr

Research Areas The research area of clinical and epidemiological research in cognition aims to study risk factors of reduced cognitive ability particularly vascular mechanisms. Another aim entails taking care of already reduced cognitive ability. Several clinical and longitudinal studies have involved mechanisms of interrupted autoregulation of cerebral blood flow, correlation between hypertension
