Background and aims The pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) shares several common pathways with atherosclerosis. Prospective clinical plasma biomarker studies in AAA have been hampered by the need for very large cohorts and long follow-up time. Methods We analyzed a prospective longitudinal cohort of middle-aged individuals from the cardiovascular cohort of the Malmö Diet and Cancer st

BACKGROUND: Biomarkers reflecting diverse pathophysiological pathways may play an important role in the pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (aortic diameter ≥30 mm, AAA), levels of many biomarkers are elevated and correlated to aortic diameter among 65-year-old men undergoing ultrasound (US) screening for AAA.PROBANDS AND METHODS: To evaluate potential relationships between biomarkers and ao

We are reporting an efficient, label-free and continuous separation of mononuclear cells (MNC), from blood using microchip acoustophoresis. In standard PBS buffer, MNCs and red blood cells (RBC) display overlapping acoustophoretic mobilities which compromise separation of these cell types from each other. In this paper we capitalize on the fact that MNC and RBC display different acoustophysical pr

BACKGROUND: Kinetic energy (KE) of intracardiac blood flow reflects myocardial work spent on accelerating blood and provides a mechanistic window into diastolic filling dynamics. Diastolic dysfunction may represent an early stage in the development of heart failure (HF). Here we evaluated the hemodynamic effects of impaired diastolic function in subjects with and without HF, testing the hypothesis

A 1-m normal-incidence monochromator has been designed and installed on a bending-magnet beam line at the MAX storage ring in Lund. The optical properties of the beam line have been investigated via ray-tracing studies and with flux measurements of the beam line-monochromator combination. A resolution of 0.9 Å at 919.8 Å was measured in first-order diffraction with an argon hollow-cathode lamp for

Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka om det finns skillnader mellan den bevisvärdering som sker då målsägandens utsaga är huvudbevisning i våldtäktsmål jämfört med rånmål samt att resonera kring problematiken kring en sådan eventuell diskrepans för våldtäktsoffer. För att uppfylla uppsatsens syfte görs en rättsfallsstudie för att analysera våldtäktsmålen och sedan jämföra bevisvärderingen med den i rThe purpose of this essay is to examine if there are differences between evaluation of evidence when the main evidence is the statement of the victim in cases of rape compared with cases of robbery (rån) and to discuss the problems with a possible discrepancy from the view of victims of rape. To fulfill the purpose a comparing legal case study is used in which the evaluation of evidence in cases o

Original/Value: This paper contributes to the narrow body of research on a complex phenomenon: brand activism and customers’ perception. It presents a new framework for analysing the relationship between the brand vision and brand image. Furthermore, it compares and contrasts the brand activism of two different fashion companies.

Allmänna pensionsfonderna, oftast omnämnda som AP-fonderna, är de största förvaltarna id et allmänna inkomstpensionsystemet. Fonderna har i uppdrag att investera pensionssystemets buffertkapital och eftersträva en hög långsiktig avkastning för att bidra till en hög pension för framtida generationer. För att uppfylla sitt uppdrag investerar fonderna i tusentals företag runt om i världen. Under de sThe Swedish Public Pension Funds, also known as the AP-funds, are the biggest trustees of Swedish pension payments. Their mission is to invest the buffer capital of the pension system and ensure growth that will provide pension disbursements for generations to come. To fulfil this mission investments are made in thousands of companies all over the world. During the last years the AP-funds have bee

Höksångarens Sylvia nisoria flyttning och övervintring Fåglars flyttning har fascinerat forskare under en lång tid. Från att ha varit begränsat till visuella observationer har utvecklingen tagit forskningsfältet framåt via bland annat ringmärkning, radar, satellit- och GPS-sändare. Det senaste decenniet har mycket små ljusmätande apparater gjort det möjligt att detaljerat följa även mindre fåglarTechnological advancements in the past few decades have been pushing the research field of animal migration forward rapidly. In this study light-level geolocators were used to track Swedish barred warblers Sylvia nisoria, a long-distance migrant wintering in equatorial East Africa. We obtained data on autumn migration events and on wintering sites. Ringing data from populations in Northern Europe

With the foreign political turbulence after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the world came into a change. The post-cold war environment meant that the politics of the bipolarity no longer were the case. This period leads to pressure in redefining Sweden’s foreign and security policy, resulting in an emergence of a different commitment to the countries neutrality and non-alignment. In the light of Kje

This essay investigates the need for prioritizing resilience and mindfulness in academia and elaborated on a pragmatic approach to how we as scholars can improve our well-being collectively in today’s demanding academic environment.

The advent of diffraction-limited storage rings (DLSRs) has boosted the brilliance or coherent flux by one to two orders of magnitude with respect to the previous generation. One consequence of this brilliance enhancement is an increase in the flux density or number of photons per unit of area and time, which opens new possibilities for the spatiotemporal resolution of X-ray imaging techniques. Th

Background: P-wave indices reflect atrial abnormalities contributing to atrial fibrillation (AF). We aimed to assess a comprehensive set of P-wave characteristics for prediction of incident AF in a population-based setting. Methods: Malmö Preventative Project (MPP) participants were reexamined in 2002–2006 with electrocardiographic (ECG) and echocardiographic examinations and followed for 5 years.

To investigate whether coronary artery disease (CAD) burden is associated with plasma levels of the myocardial biomarkers Troponin I (TropI) and NT-proBNP in a large population-based sample using a cross-sectional design. Coronary computerized tomography (CT) angiography was performed in 25,859 subjects without a history of atherosclerotic disease from SCAPIS study (age 50-65, 52% women). TropI an
