Objectives: Rituximab (RTX) is an anti-CD20 antibody that selectively depletes B cells and has emerged as a therapy for ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) during the past decade. This study sought to quantify and determine potential risk factors for severe infections in AAV patients treated with RTX at rheumatology clinics in Mexico City, Mexico and Lund, Sweden. Methods: The study consisted of a re
Recent years have seen a rise in extreme heat event (EHE)-related deaths in India. However, the impact of specific temperature thresholds on health risks remains understudied. Using Distributed Lag Non-Linear Models (DLNM), we explored the link between EHEs, defined by various temperature thresholds, and mortality risk in Ahmedabad, India, from 2002 to 2018, considering a 21-day lag. We observed a
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an autoimmune disorder in which genetics and environmental factors play a role. Among the environmental factors, viruses (especially Coxsackie virus B [CBV]), and among genetic markers, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) DRB1*04-DQA1*0301-DQB1*0302 (DR4-DQ8) and DRB1*03-DQA1*0501-DQB1*0201 (DR3-DQ2), and major histocompatibility complex class I chain-related gene-A (M
It has been proposed that the developmentally supportive care of very-low-birthweight (VLBW) infants provided by the Newborn Individualized Developmental Care and Assessment Program (NIDCAP) can improve the infants’ opportunities for rest and sleep. The aim of the present study was to determine whether quiet sleep (QS) in VLBW infants is affected by NIDCAP care. Twenty-two infants with a gestation
The amyloid precursor protein intracellular domain (AICD) is an intrinsically disordered regulatory segment whose conserved YENPTY motif mediates transient interactions with multiple adaptor and signaling proteins. How sequence perturbations within this motif modulate its accessibility and interaction potential within a disordered ensemble remains poorly understood. Here, we combine small-angle X-
Background: Effectively identifying individuals exposed to drug underuse, overuse and potentially inappropriate medication (PIM) in older adults is essential for minimizing preventable drug-related harms. Methods: We analysed data from 54,296 individuals aged 60–74 years from the German National Cohort (NAKO). We assessed the frequency of PIM, untreated conditions (medication and vaccination under
Objectives: To use a population pharmacokinetic approach to define maximally effective meropenem dosing recommendations for treatment of Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in a large cohort of patients with septic shock. Methods: Adult patients with septic shock and conserved renal function, treated with meropenem, were eligible for inclusion. Seven blood samples were co
OBJECTIVES: Quantitative monitoring of human cytomegalovirus infections is helpful in determining appropriate antiviral management in patients who receive bone marrow transplants. We sought to design and evaluate a new cytomegalovirus capture hybrid polymerase chain reaction enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (PCR-ELISA) in plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells to monitor cytomegalovirus in
PowerPoint-presentation ALF - Tilldelningsberäkning Prioriteringskommittén gör en bedömning av ansökningarna om ALF-medel ur vetenskaplig synvinkel och sätter poäng på varje projekt. ALF beredningsgrupp bestämmer därefter hur mycket totala ALF projektmedel som ska avsättas, för år 2021 är det 209 Mkr. Själva fördelningen av ALF-projektmedel sker separat för två kostnadsslag; lokalkostnader och övr

The Canadian Arctic currently faces changing coastlines due isostatic rebound and climate change-driven sea-levels rising. This thesis seeks to answer how local coastlines will change over time under different Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios, where errors in modelled coastlines come from, and how much of an impact isostatic rebound has on sea-levels compared to climate-change
Smoked ham is commonly eaten in Sweden. However, smoked ham consists of a lot of salt (NaCl) which is an important component in the brine. Since a high salt consumption increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, it is of great interest to decrease salt and other sodium-binding compounds in various food products, especially in smoked ham. Nevertheless, this is a challenge because the salt and o
Light dark matter is a hypothesized form of dark matter in the 1 MeV to 1 GeV mass range. The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is an upcoming experiment to test the existence of light dark matter, by colliding an electron beam with a tungsten target and assembling a set of events that potentially indicate the existence of light dark matter. The three main detector components of the LDMX are a s
To maintain stability in the Swedish electricity grid, Svenska kraftnät must be able to predict future electricity production and consumption. Earlier this have been done by using historical data. Now the complexity of the system has increased, because the growing amount of electricity from nondispatchable sources as well as the impact of climate change. Thus using only historical data will give
Vi har undersökt om det fanns några skillnader mellan vuxna, internationellt adopterades psykiska välbefinnande hos två grupper individer, antingen med tidig (ett år eller yngre) eller med sen (fyra år eller äldre) ankomstålder. Dessutom undersökte vi om det fanns några skillnader mellan gruppernas kunskap, minnen och föreställningar om bakgrunden. Individer med olika mycket kunskap, minnen och fö
Accurate wireless channel models are crucial to simulate the effect of radio wave propagation in a channel on wireless communication systems. By calculating physical processing effects that signal undergoes while traveling from transmitter to the receiver, channel models help to analyze performance of wireless systems. State of the art channel model such as WINNER and COST 2100 are able to model t
OBJECTIVE: Recent studies suggest that administration of O2 in patients with acute myocardial infarction may have negative effects. With the use of cardiac MRI (CMR), we evaluated the effects of supplemental O2 in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) accepted for acute percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study was a randomized-controlled trial c
