Glycolipids such as gangliosides affect the properties of lipid membranes and in extension the interactions between membranes and other biomolecules like proteins. To better understand how the properties of individual lipid molecules can contribute to shape the functional aspects of a membrane, the spatial restriction and dynamics of C–H bond segments can be measured using nuclear magnetic re

The aim of the current study was to examine the prevalence of ideal cardiovascular health (iCVH) in the general Swedish middle-aged population. To address this aim, we utilised data from the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS) which is a large Swedish population-based study (N=30,154) that combined comprehensive state-of-the-art imaging technology with clinical examinations and include

Background Anorexia nervosa is associated with high personal and financial costs for sufferers, carers and society in general, but little is known about the long-term health economic burden. Aims To examine healthcare utilisation, social assistance, sick leave and disability pension in individuals with anorexia nervosa over a period of 30 years. Method Fifty-one individuals with adolescent-onset a

Agenda 2030 Graduate School monthly newsletter #6 2023-09-11 Ylva van Meeningen Hi! There is a feeling of change in the air. Not just because autumn is fast approaching, but a lot seem to be happening locally and globally. In our own little bubble, there will be a change in the graduate school office. In a bigger context the United Nations will convene in one week’s time where the leaders of the w

Hematopoiesis is initiated by a rare population of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in the bone marrow (BM). HSCs give rise to red blood cells and white blood cells of myeloid and lymphoid lineages. The red blood cells are responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body, while the myeloid and lymphoid cells are essentially required for immune responses. The HSCs reside in special niches in t

Rektor Handlingsplan för Lunds universitets samarbete med Latinamerika 2021-2024 Beslutad av rektor 2020-12-10 Bakgrund Utrikesdepartementet fastslog 2018 en nationell handlingsplan för Latinamerika där universitet betonas som relevanta aktörer för att främja samarbetet med regionen. För Lunds universitet (LU) är internationalisering ett prioriterat område (strategiska planen 2017-2026) och handli

Purpose: The goal of this study was to determine the degree of consensus in the management of spinal cord tethering (TC) in patients with anorectal malformation (ARM) in a large cohort of European pediatric centers. Methods: A survey was sent to pediatric surgeons (one per center) members of the ARM-Net Consortium. Results: Twenty-four (86%) from ten different countries completed the survey. Overa

Overweight and obesity is associated with lower rates of suicide. However, little is known about the association with different suicide methods. We studied the association between groups of body mass index and suicide methods. We identified all medicolegal autopsy cases with a cause of death due to external causes in Sweden during 1999-2013 (N = 39,368) and included 11,715 suicides and 13,316 acci

In a population-based case-control study in Sweden on multiple myeloma, the occurrence of different diseases in relatives, particularly hematologic malignancies and different types of cancer, was investigated. Through a questionnaire mailed to all living subjects, i.e. cases and controls, and to the next-of-kin for deceased subjects, information was obtained on malignant and certain other diseases

Cognitively-normal people with evidence of β-amyloid (Aβ) pathology and subtle cognitive dysfunction are believed to be at high risk for progression to mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Clinical trials in later stages of AD typically include a coprimary endpoint to demonstrate efficacy on both cognitive and functional assessments. Recent trials focus on cognitively-normal

The use of clinical autopsy has been in decline for many years throughout healthcare systems of developed countries despite studies showing substantial discrepancies between autopsy results and pre-mortal clinical diagnoses. We conducted a study to evaluate over time the use and results of clinical autopsies in Sweden. We reviewed the autopsy reports and autopsy referrals of 2410 adult (age > 17)

This paper studies volatility prediction on OMX Stockholm 30, OMX Helsinki 25 and OMX Nordic 40. The models used are a historical variance model, an exponentially weighted moving average model and three models from the GARCH family. These are GARCH(1,1), EGARCH(1,1) and GJR(1,1), with normal and t-distribution respectively. The volatility for 2008-2013 is forecasted with a rolling window technique

In mining for extraction of metals residues are often produced. A frequently produced residue is tailings, which potentially contains high amount of metals, soluble salts and acids. Therefore, it is often necessary to deposit, the tailings in stable impoundments, namely tailings dams, if not all tailings produced is used as backfill in mines. In the construction of the tailings dam in Garpenberg,

Dagens familjer ser inte ut på samma sätt som de gjorde ”förr i tiden”, då kärnfamiljen med mamma, pappa och biologiska barn var den enda socialt accepterade familjekonstellationen. Sedan dess har stora förändringar skett hos den svenska befolkningen, som kämpat för bland annat kvinnlig frigörelse och mot patriarkala strukturer och normer. I dag erkänner det svenska rättssystemet ett flertal andraWe live in a time where one can form a family in numerous ways. A time where the nuclear family is no longer the only accepted option in our society. The movement towards women’s rights and equality, as well as the fight against patriarchal and normative structures has led to the acknowledgement of other types of families. New structures however, require new legislation. Today same-sexed marriage

Past results suggest that fear extinction and the return of extinguished fear are compromised in adolescents. However, findings have been inconclusive as there is a lack of fear extinction and extinction retention studies including children, adolescents and adults. In the present study, 36 children (6–9 years), 40 adolescents (13–17 years) and 44 adults (30–40 years), underwent a two-day fear cond

Background: The feedback of the surveillance results to the employee and the employer largely determines the impact of workers’ health surveillance on workers’ health and exposure. We are unaware of any guidebooks or articles on performing feedback on regulated workers’ health surveillance, e.g., for vibration-exposed workers. Objectives: To identify existing knowledge of the communication aspects
