Background: Stroke and dementia are interrelated diseases and risk for both increases with age. Even though stroke incidence and age-standardized death rates have decreased due to prevention of stroke risk factors, increased utilization of reperfusion therapies, and other changes in healthcare, the absolute numbers are increasing due to population growth and aging. Objective: To analyze predictors
PURPOSE: To assess cognitive interference processing in adults with childhood craniopharyngioma (CP), with and without hypothalamic injury, respectively, in terms of behavioral performance and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) activity, using the multi-source interference task (MSIT).METHODS: Twenty-eight CP patients (median age 34.5 [29.0-39.5] years) were investigated at median 20.5 (
This investigation determined the effects of fermented oat-based products containing both native and microbial beta-glucans on plasma lipids and on fecal total bacterial count and Bifidobacterium ssp. The study was randomized, double blind with 3 parallel groups. Sixty-two free-living volunteers with moderately increased plasma cholesterol levels were recruited. In the final analysis, 56 subjects
The DyDOC model simulates the C dynamics of forest soils, including the production and transport of dissolved organic matter (DOM), on the basis of soil hydrology, metabolic processes, and sorption reactions. The model recognizes three main pools of soil C: litter, substrate (an intermediate transformation product), and humic substances. The model was used to simulate the behavior of C in the 0 ho
Introduction: Regional and hospital decision-makers increasingly require analyses assessing the cost-benefit profile of new cancer drugs. This analysis evaluates the cost-benefit profile of nano albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) in pancreatic cancer, versus other drugs indicated in high-unmet need solid tumour indications in Nordic countries (Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden). M
Background: The aim was to compare health-related quality-of-life (HRQOL) and cost-effectiveness between cytoreductive surgery with intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS + IPC) and systemic chemotherapy for patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases. Methods: Patients included in the Swedish Peritoneal Trial comparing CRS + IPC and systemic chemotherapy completed the EORTC QLQ-C30 and SF-36 questi
OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to examine long-term quality of life (QOL) and reintegration in patients with good neurological recovery after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and SAH of unknown cause (SAH NUD). METHODS: A long-term follow-up was performed in an original cohort of 113 individuals who had suffered SAH (93 with aSAH and 20 with SAH NUD) between 1977 and 1984. Self-rep
Due to the world’s growing population and an increase in food demand, new innovative food products need to be developed to maximize the use of limited farmland. Because of global warming and the fact that plant based products generate less greenhouse gases than meat based products, research should focus on new plant-based protein sources. Rapeseed press cake is a residue from rapeseed oil producti
As the greenhouse gas emissions keep on increasing the need for solutions to help reduce emissions across all sectors has never been greater. The European Union has pointed out green hydrogen as a step in increasing the sustainability of the energy sector in Europe. Goals has been set to boost the development of hydrogen technology since the green hydrogen production today is only existing in an i
Reducing microorganisms by UV light is has been commonly used for drinking water for many years. In other liquid products like apple juice it is a rather novel application. The advantages would be that quality parameters like aromas and vitamins are less affected by the UV treatment compared to a heat treatment. Furthermore it would probably be cheaper, as the lamps need less electrical energy tha
In the construction of high-speed railways, an important starting point is to make as little Intrusion on land as possible, therefore it is of high importance to carefully investigate which construction alternatives are the most advantageous. The purpose of this work is to compare and evaluate land use and building on viaduct. The work will be based on literature and interview studies. Sections of
Previous studies clarified that the electron enriched NADH and NADPH by RBC glycolysis could be used in an extracellular chemical reaction, where electron energies are extracted by an electron mediator methylene blue (MB). The reduced form of MB permeates the phospholipid bilayer of liposomes and reduce encapsulated ferric methemoglobin (metHb) to ferrous hemoglobin. Moreover, in vitro screening s
Relapsed or recurrent breast cancer is the chief cause of breast cancer related deaths and it is estimated that one-third of breast cancer patients would likely suffer a relapse. Due to high mortality and incidence, recurrent breast cancer requires better means of prediction, prevention and treatment. The AFFIRM platform uses recombinant antibody technology and selected reaction monitoring (SRM) m
In this master thesis, the topic of energy storage connected to concentrator photovoltaic power production is assessed. The end goal is to propose the optimal energy storage technology and its sizing, regarding power and energy capacity, for an existing concentrator photovoltaic power plant. The plant is located in the province of Algarve in Portugal, the installed production capacity is 4.5 MW, a

Connecting science to political agenda-setting is essential for a sustainable transition and acceptable politics. This task is complicated by phenomena like post-truth, for which facts are a non-issue. However, post-truth is not the only issue. The practice of political spin, in which the significance of facts is reconstructed according to specific interests poses another threat to scientific cred
