Background and objective: To assess the effect of surgeon sex on short- and long-term outcomes after colon cancer resections. Methods: Clinical data of patients who underwent colon cancer resections between 2010 and 2020 at Helsingborg Hospital, Sweden, were retrospectively obtained from medical records. The sex of the surgeon of each procedure was recorded. Morbidity, mortality, and long-term sur
Background: Women with mild breast cancer-related arm lymphedema (BCRAL) mostly receive treatment with compression garments and instructions in self-care to prevent the progression of lymphedema. However, wearing a compression garment may be experienced as negative and may affect health-related quality of life (HRQOL) more than the lymphedema itself. The aim of this study was to investigate if the
Objective: Late night spontaneous growth hormone (GH) pulses may influence the pituitary GH response to provocation tests. We evaluated GH response during arginine-insulin-tolerance test (AITT) after a GH peak during a short spontaneous nocturnal profile (SSNP) in children with short stature or low growth velocity. Design: Using SSNP and subsequent AITT, we examined 257 children 4–18 years old (13
Background: Despite newer treatments with immunosuppressive agents, there still exists a considerable morbidity and mortality risk among patients with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV). Since 1994 the European Vasculitis Society (EUVAS) has aimed for an improved outcome for patients with AAV, conducting several prospective randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
At the emergency department (ED), it is important to quickly and accurately determine which patients are likely to have a major adverse cardiac event (MACE). Machine learning (ML) models can be used to aid physicians in detecting MACE, and improving the performance of such models is an active area of research. In this study, we sought to determine if ML models can be improved by including a prior
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vi är under ständig attack från mikroorganismer som vill leva på oss och i oss. Vissa av dessa är vanligtvis nyttiga medan andra är sjukdomsframkallande. Kroppens försvar mot invaderande organismer består av många delar. Ytterst sitter huden som en mekanisk barriär, vi har slem och epitelceller i luftvägar och magtarmkanal samt skyddande ämnen i exempelvis tårvätska. I Transplantation antigens encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) bind peptides and present them to T cells. We showed that mouse T cells expressing transgenic human CD8 can recognise human MHC class I. Expression on mature T cells is sufficient for activation in a mixed lymphocyte culture but expression both on thymocytes and mature T cells is necessary for peptide specific MHC restr
Employing high-resolution spectra obtained with the near-UV-sensitive detector on the Keck I HIRES, supplemented by data obtained with the McDonald Observatory 2d-coudé, we have performed a comprehensive chemical composition analysis of the bright r-process-rich metal-poor red giant star HD 221170. Analysis of 57 individual neutral and ionized species yielded abundances for a total of 46 elements
AbstractHuman papillomaviruses (HPVs) are small non enveloped viruses that contain a double-stranded circular DNA genome of approximately 8kb in size. It has been estimated that approximately 5% of all cancers are caused by HPV infection. Cervical cancer represents the majority of HPV-associated anogenital cancers worldwide. HPV type16 (HPV16) accounts for 65% of cervical cancer and approximately
The human brain is a complex and finely tuned organ, constantly monitored and maintained by its resident immune cells.Among these, microglia are the primary regulators of the brain immune environment under physiological conditions, and monocyte-derived macrophages contribute mainly to pathological states such as ischemic stroke and neuronopathic Gaucher’s disease (GD). These two diseases, although
Purpose: In 2019 Varian EthosTM linear accelerator (Varian Medical Systems, CA, USA) with integrated artificial intelligence (AI) was installed at Herlev Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark, enabling online adaptive radiotherapy (oART) e.g for bladder cancer patients with a large margin reduction. The AI utilizes so called influencers for initial delineation of the targets and organs at risks (OAR) usin
We present a parton-level phenomenological study of triple-Higgs production at leading order in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 100 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 30 ab^-1. This study aims to estimate the prospects for measuring the signal hhh production observable at the Future Circular Collider. We explore interesting final states that could be used for this purpose
The battle for Aleppo culminated in the year 2016 when Syrian regime forces captured northern parts of Aleppo making a siege a reality for many people. A question of who was to blame isn’t always clear when looking at complex conflicts. People often look towards media to make meaning of such complexities. This paper examines two different news organizations, RT and CNN, role in depicting perpetrat
The world under globalization is moving toward a single market, where national economies are becoming more integrated and interconnected. In this context, over the last decades, the perception of FDI positive spillovers has made developed and developing countries competing to attract foreign investors. This study analyses the determinants of FDI during the globalization process, both theoretically
This thesis explores the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) to convert natural language questions into SQL (Structured Query Language) queries within the field of sports analytics, with a focus on a real-world use case for Spiideo, a provider of cloud-based video analysis tools. The study compares different system designs, including single-agent and multi-agent setups, various prompting strategie
The pulmonary route has emerged as a promising strategy for delivering protein therapeutics, particularly for patients suffering from respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pulmonary infections. This project investigated the effect of operating parameters of a laboratory spray dryer on the characteristics of powders composed of Bovine Serum Albumin
Low-temperature vacuum spray drying (VSD) is a potential drying approach for probiotic and live biotherapeutic product (LBP) formulations. This thesis investigated VSD for Limosilactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 as a model probiotic strain, with the aim of identifying a feasible lab-scale operating window and using data-driven analysis to support process understanding. Sucrose–maltodextrin formulati
