I staden växer ett fält50 konstnärer i Malmö 1.10 2022–15.1 2023I höstens grupputställning på Malmö Konsthall med Malmöbaserade konstnärer möter vi energin och styrkan från stadens konstscen. Utställningen I staden växer ett fält innehåller verk av 50 konstnärer från olika generationer och med olika uttryck. I en myllrande och rik presentation speglas konstens egensinnighet och integritet, men ock
The structure of the η′ phase, one of the most important age-hardening precipitates in commercial Al-Zn-Mg alloys, has been studied at the atomic level by means of high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM). A structural model of the η′ phase has been constructed on the basis of the structural characteristics in the observed images and the structure of the η-MgZn2 phase. Image simulation of this m
COVID-19 is a major public health threat associated with increased disease burden, mortality, and economic loss to countries and communities. Safe and efficacious COVID-19 vaccines are key in halting and reversing the pandemic. Low confidence in vaccines has been one of the factors leading to hesitancy. We aimed to assess the COVID-19 vaccine confidence (safety and effectiveness), associated facto
Purpose: Caveolin-1 (CAV1) has been implicated in breast cancer oncogenesis and metastasis and may be a potential prognosticator, especially for non-distant events. CAV1 functions as a master regulator of membrane transport and cell signaling. Several CAV1 SNPs have been linked to multiple cancers, but the prognostic impact of CAV1 SNPs in breast cancer remains unclear. Here, we investigated CAV1
Among hereditary colorectal cancer predisposing syndromes, Lynch syndrome (LS) caused by mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 or PMS2 is the most common. Patients with LS have an increased risk of early onset colon and endometrial cancer, but also other tumors that generally have an earlier onset compared to the general population. However, age at first primary cancer varies wit
Urbanisation is one of the biggest environmental challenges of our time, yet we still lack an integrative understanding of how cities affect behaviour, physiology and parasite susceptibility of free-living organisms. In this study, we focus on carotenoids, strictly dietary micronutrients that can either be used as yellow-red pigments, for integument colouration (signalling function), or as antioxi
Background: Lumbar puncture (LP) is a common invasive procedure, most frequently performed to diagnose infection. Physicians perform LP in newborn infants with the help of an assistant using a strict aseptic technique; it is important to monitor the infant during all the steps of the procedure. Without adequate analgesia, LP can cause considerable pain and discomfort. As newborns have increased se
Background and purpose — Antibiotic-loaded bone cement (ALBC) and systemic antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) have been used to reduce periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) rates. We investigated the use of ALBC and SAP in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Patients and methods — This observational study is based on 2,971,357 primary TKAs reported in 2010–2020 to national/regional joint arthroplasty
BACKGROUND: Quality of life (QOL), sense of coherence (SOC) and occupational balance (OB) have been found to increase after rehabilitation among people living with depression and anxiety. However, these aspects have not been investigated over time in participants with different paid work situations, such as being on sick leave or not. OBJECTIVE: To describe and compare the self-rated QOL, SOC and
Knowledge resistance can be defined as the state where we are “almost immune to evidence, or experiences of others” (Klintman 2022:323). The phenomenon, often described using related terms, remains highly relevant to understanding the challenges and opportunities of agreeing on the existence, severity, causes and solutions to environmental problems. The concept of knowledge resistance is related t
Aim: Assess effects on waist circumference from diet with or without cereal grains and with or without long-term physical exercise. Background: Elevated waist circumference is an indicator of increased abdominal fat storage and is accordingly associated with increased cardiovascular mortality. This is likely due to the association between lifestyle-induced changes in waist circumference and cardio
The COVID-19 pandemic put a lot of strain on healthcare organizations. Nurses accountfor over 50% of healthcare staff, and how nurses perform in their work is influenced by a number ofhuman and work environmental factors. However, to our knowledge, there has not been a previousstudy with the intention to look at all areas that affect a sustainable working life and how theseimpact nurses’ mental we
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Adaptive radiotherapy (ART) involves treatment re-planning based on anatomical changes, which may improve target coverage and sparing of organs-at-risk (OARs). This study retrospectively assessed the technical feasibility and potential benefits of daily ART in combination with reduced planning target volume (PTV) margins for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).MAT
Background and Objectives: Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) is an umbrella term for pain and dysfunction involving jaw muscles and/or the temporomandibular joint, with whiplash trauma suggested to be one risk factor. The aim was to evaluate prevalence and relative risk of TMDs in the acute and chronic stages after whiplash trauma. Databases and Data Treatment: This review was registered in Prosp
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syn är avgörande för många djurs överlevnad. En väldigt viktig del av ögat är linsen då ljuset fokuseras genom den. I denna studie har jag undersökt hur fisklinser fokuserar ljus. Valet av fiskar som försöksdjur berodde på att de är lätta att skaffa och deras linser är klotformade, vilket underlättar beräkningen av strålgången och linsens optiska egenskaper. Hos fiskar Vision is an important source of information for many animals. The lens plays a central role in the visual pathway and hence the ecology of these animals. Fish have spherically shaped crystalline lenses that contain a gradient of refractive index. Like all refracting elements, lens performance depends on the wavelength of the refracted light. This wavelength dependent focusing leads to chromatic a
