Background and aim: Repeat hepatectomy is increasingly performed for the management of recurrent colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). The aim of this study was to evaluate longterm functional liver volume (FLV) after a second hepatic procedure and to measure survival outcome. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, patients treated for recurrent CRLM in the years 2005-2015 at two liver centers

Vattenkraften står för hälften av vårt elbehov i Sverige idag. Merparten av vattenkraftverken är gjutna i betong och som många andra betongkonstruktioner så drabbas betongen av sprickbildning av olika orsaker. För vattenkraften är genomgående sprickor ett problem då dessa skapar läckage. För att förhindra dessa sprickor har en ny metod börjat undersökas där bakterier som kan avsätta kalciumkarbonHalf of the electricity needed in Sweden today is produced by hydro power. Most structure parts in hydro power stations are made of concrete and as many of other concrete structures they contain cracks. Cracking through dams are a big problem for hydro power since they create leakage. To prevent cracking a new method is under investigation. It consists of incorporating calcium carbonate precipita

I takt med ökad nederbörd och urbanisering ökar risken för pluviala översvämningar i våra urbana miljöer som följd av den ökade effekten av klimatförändringar. En allvarlig konsekvens som följd av alltmer kraftiga nederbörd och skyfall är att den hydrauliska kapaciteten i ett befintligt dagvattenledningssystem är överbelastad, vilket kan leda till översvämning. Detta arbete syftade att belysa hur The number of flooding incidents in our urban cities and communities has increased drastically as a result of the increased effect of global warming in recent years. The probability of occurrence for heavy rainfalls and cloudburst events is higher, increasing the risks of pluvial flooding in urban areas. As a result of more frequent flooding, the hydraulic capacity of existing stormwater pipe syst

In this study, effects of a dust hole and its location on the flow structure, endwall heat transfer and friction factor in a U bend channel used for a gas turbine blade tip cooling are numerically studied. The dust hole is placed on the endwall of a U bend at different locations. The U bend channel without dust hole is considered as Baseline. The Reynolds number ranges from 50,000 to 440,000. Resu

Homografts have long been used for right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reconstruction. Tissue banks struggle to meet the clinical demand of tissue, with insufficient donor availability and strict recommendations on tissue quality with high proportions of discards. This study analyzes the long-term outcome of patients receiving a homograft with small fenestrations of the cusps or other structura

This paper examines the effect of various factors on the commuting behaviour of one- and two- worker households. The households' choices in the land- and labour markets are modeled in the context of Becker's common-preference framework. The empirical investigation using data from the 2007 American Community Survey also tests the Household Responsibility Hypothesis. I find that women have s

Does the host derived peptide really effect the silent killer? Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the leading infectious cause of death in the world via the manipulative agent Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Despite the decrease in deaths over the following years and available drug treatments, the dieses still rank the top of the list and remains a global pandemic. Constant rise of resistant M. tuberculosis

Introduction: FLASH radiotherapy (RT) has emerged as a promising modality, demonstrating both a normal tissue sparing effect and anticancer efficacy. We have previously reported on the safety and efficacy of single fraction FLASH RT in the treatment of oral tumors in canine cancer patients, showing tumor response but also a risk of radiation-induced severe late adverse effects (osteoradionecrosis)

This study explored serious mental illness (SMI) in young adult offenders imprisoned for violent or sexual crimes, estimating the effects of neurodevelopmental disorders and early-life risk factors on the development of SMI, and its prospective long-term adverse outcomes. An all-male cohort of 266 violent offenders, assessed during imprisonment when aged 18–25 years (M = 21.8, SD = 1.9), was follo

The purpose of this phase II randomized trial was to evaluate the effect and safety of interferon-2a (IFN) in combination with extended dosing rituximab in patients with symptomatic, advanced indolent lymphoma responding to a standard single course of rituximab. Totally 123 patients were treated with rituximab 375mg/m2 once weekly for 4 weeks leading to 14 complete response (CR; 11%), 56 partial r

Even though recent studies suggest that a high intake of heme iron is associated with several types of cancer, epidemiological studies in relation to gastric cancer (GC) are lacking. Our previous results show a positive association between red and processed meat and non cardia gastric cancer, especially in Helicobacter pylori infected subjects. The aim of the study is to investigate the associatio

PurposeTo evaluate the long-term effect of laser trabeculoplasty (LTP) in patients randomized to multi-treatment in the Glaucoma Intensive Treatment Study (GITS).MethodsPatients with untreated newly diagnosed open-angle glaucoma were treated with three intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering substances for 1 week and then 360° argon or selective LTP was performed. IOP was measured just before LTP and

BACKGROUND: Mild cases of acute kidney injury (AKI) are identified by a small rise in serum creatinine (SCr) according to the KDIGO AKI definition. The aim of this study was to examine the long-term outcomes of individuals with mild AKI.Methods. This was a retrospective cohort study of all adult patients who underwent abdominal, cardiothoracic, vascular or orthopaedic surgery at Landspitali-The Na

En wollastonitförekomst vid Stor Hulta gruvor i närheten av Nora har undersökts. I den nedlagda gruvan har tidigare skarnjärnmalm tillhörande leptitformationen brutits. I jämförande syfte har även wollastonit från Akatjvare i Tjåmotisområdet undersökts. Detta är LKAB:s prospekteringsobjekt och är beläget i Jokkmokks kommun. Resultaten för detta material, som utgörs av fyra stuffer av dubbel knytnäThe wollastonite occurrence at Hulta is a skarn deposit associated with iron ore within the Leptite Formation of central Sweden. Wollastonite is found in carbonate layers within the leptite and the rocks have been subject to regional metamorphism. These layers are normally approximately 10 cm thick. Corelogging, microscopic studies and X-ray diffraction show a varied composition of the rock, with

We examined the association between self-reported consumption of fruits and vegetables and prostate cancer risk in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Data on food consumption and complete follow-up for cancer incidence were available for 130,544 men in 7 countries recruited into EPIC between 1993 and 1999. After an average of 4.8 years of follow-up, there were

Popular Abstract in Swedish Cystisk Fibros Cystisk Fibros (CF) är en relativt vanlig ärftlig sjukdom. Ungefär 1/37 personer i Sverige bär på anlag till CF, men bärare har inga symptom och vet därför inte att de har anlagen. För att få sjukdomen måste fostret få två anlag, ett från vardera föräldern, vilket är 25% risk vid varje graviditet för föräldrapar där båda är bärare. CF är en dödlig sjukdomCystic Fibrosis (CF) is a severe hereditary disorder leading to progressive deterioration of lung function and death. This thesis describes the demography of CF in Sweden, its treatment, with special reference to physiotherapy, and its effects on lung function and peak working capacity (PWC). The study is based on Swedish CF patients and evaluates our current CF treatment package, which differs fr
