Objectives: Genome-wide association studies have revealed over 200 genetic susceptibility loci for prostate cancer (PCa). By combining them, polygenic risk scores (PRS) can be generated to predict risk of PCa. We summarize the published evidence and conduct meta-analyses of PRS as a predictor of PCa risk in Caucasian men. Patients and methods: Data were extracted from 59 studies, with 16 studies i
Dynamic restructuring of silver catalysts during the industrial conversion of methanol to formaldehyde leads to surface faceting and pinhole formation. Subsequent sintering under reaction conditions, followed by increased pressure drop and decreased catalyst activity requires catalyst bed replacement after several months of operation. This necessitates a comprehensive understanding of the bulk cat
Noncoding RNAs control critical cellular processes, although their contribution to disease remains largely unexplored. Dyskerin associates with hundreds of H/ACA small RNAs to generate a multitude of functionally distinct ribonucleoproteins (RNPs). The DKC1 gene, encoding dyskerin, is mutated in the multisystem disorder X-linked dyskeratosis congenita (X-DC). A central question is whether DKC1 mut

Over the years, Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS) has been recognized as a crucial element in the toolkit of measures to combat climate change. At the European Union (EU) level, CCS plays a vital role in climate policy, particularly in reducing CO2 emissions from hard-to-abate industries. However, no comprehensive legal framework covers all stages of CCS. These stages include carbon capture t
The field of organ transplantation is experiencing a transformative shift with the rise of Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs), which include gene therapies, somatic cell therapies, and tissue-engineered products. These therapies offer new, potentially curative treatments for longstanding medical challenges, impacting numerous patients. However, their adoption is hindered by complex regula
Background: To support care after discharge following surgery for anorectal malformations (ARM) and Hirschsprung's disease (HD), an eHealth device was invented, offering families bilateral communication through chat, photo, questionaries and video. Aim: To explore the impact of eHealth on postoperative patterns of expert consultation, complications and treatment after discharge following surgery f
Studiens syfte var att undersöka betydelsen av joint engagement för tre-fyraåringars prestation på false belief-testet Maxi. Joint engagement, som beskriver upplevelsen av att dela ett objekt eller händelse med någon annan, har i tidigare studier associerats med perspektivtagande. En testsituation designades där false belief-testet administrerades i form av en film om karaktären Maxi. Ett nytt tesThe aim of this study was to investigate the effect of joint engagement on three- to four year old children’s performance on the false belief-task Maxi. Joint engagement has been associated with perspective taking in previous studies and refers to the child’s and the adult’s mutual engagement in an object. The false belief-task in this study was designed as a film about the character Maxi. Another
Author: Hanna Fridhed Title: Fort McMurray; the gentrification of the Lower Town Site Supervisor: Roberto Scaramuzzino Assessor: Torbjörn Hjort This study was conducted with the aim to examine the past and current development and future redevelopment of the Lower Town Site of Fort McMurray, AB, Canada, and to analyze the possible consequences for the current residents. Using the theory of gentrif
Current trends show that the number of people affected by natural disasters is likely to increase in coming decades. Today, more than half the world's population lives in cities and the number is expected to rise in the future. To make cities safe is therefore vital. Making Cities Resilient is an ongoing global campaign in the area of disaster risk reduction and aims to build resilient cities
A cost-benefit analysis is performed following inevitable renovation requirements for the public outdoor swimming facilities situated in Ljungbyhed and Östra Ljungby. The purpose of the thesis is to evaluate whether or not it is economically acceptable to perform the necessary investments to keep the facilities operating. The benefits are estimated using observed data regarding the number of visi
As globalization increases and our societies progressively rely on information technology, the methods of modern warfare are facing a paradigm shift. Russia plays a significant role in this development using subversive methods to achieve political goals around the world. This topic has, in recent years been subject of discussion in Sweden where non-military actions against our country and neighbor
Viktigt för rättssäkerheten i Sverige är att ingen ska kunna dömas oskyldig och att medborgare anklagade för brott ska betraktas som oskyldiga till dess att motsatsen bevisats. Misstag sker dock och därför finns regler kring resning i brottmål till förmån för den tilltalade i 58 kap. 2 § Rättegångsbalken (RB). Rättelse kan därmed nås genom att den dömde begär resning och på så sätt får sin dom ompIt is of importance that citizen’s accused of crime is seen as innocent until proven guilty and no one should be innocently convicted. But mistakes happen and therefor there are rules for granting convicted citizens a new trial in 58 kap. 2 § Rättegångsbalken (RB). It is essential in a legal certain society that a verdict which has gained legal force is not easily removed, but as previously menti
Ectomycorrhizal fungi (ECM) form symbiotic relationships with trees by connecting to the roots, procuring soil nutrients in exchange for carbohydrates, and are an important contributor to plant growth. The forestry practice of clearcutting can be detrimental to the ECM community by removing its source of energy and creating unfavorable soil conditions, acutely reducing ECM diversity. This paper ai
