High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are responsible for removing cholesterol from arterial walls, through a process known as reverse cholesterol transport. The main protein in HDL, apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I), is essential to this process, and changes in its sequence significantly alter HDL structure and functions. ApoA-I amyloidogenic variants, associated with a particular hereditary degenerative di
Objective: We investigated differences in somatosensory profiles (SSPs) assessed by quantitative sensory testing in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy (CCP) with and without chronic pain and compared these differences to those in a group of typically developed children and adolescents (TDC) with and without chronic pain. Method: All included subjects were consecutively recruited from and
This study explores the variability in nutritional composition of spinach at different maturity stages and assesses the effects of fermentation on reducing oxalates and enhancing minerals bioaccessibility. Spinach harvested at the age of 4th to 6th weeks was processed as raw, blanched, and fermented to develop freeze-dried powders. The growth stages of spinach from the 4th to the 6th week showed a
ObjectivesCancer related pain (CRP) is among the most frequent collateral effects of cancer, with chronic CRP, lasting at least three months, affecting >40% of cancer survivors.Evidence based treatments, including pain-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT) are available, but it appears that cancer patients/survivors are often poorlyinformed about CRP or the potential benefits of CBT for such p
BACKGROUND: [Corrected] Clinical assessment is not always sufficient to predict postoperative (PO) cardiac complications. B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) has an important prognostic value in patients with heart failure. Its value as a predictor of events in orthopedic surgeries has not yet been tested.OBJECTIVE: To assess the value of BNP in predicting cardiac complications in the PO period of or
Background: Patients in the forensic mental health services (FMHS) with a mental disorder, a co-occurring substance use disorder (SUD), and high risk of aggressive antisocial behavior (AAB) are sometimes referred to as the ‘triply troubled’. They suffer poor treatment outcomes, high rates of criminal recidivism, and increased risk of drug related mortality. To improve treatment for this heterogene
BACKGROUND: Identifying variables predictive of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in women is important. The use of the ratio of total cholesterol-to-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (TC/HDL-C) is often overlooked. The aim was to study TC/HDL-C in relation to later AMI, in a large sample of women, adjusted for age, educational status, smoking, waist-hip ratio, blood pressure, and neighbourhood
Conspiracies regarding vaccines are widely prevalent, with negative consequences on health-seeking behaviors. The current study aimed to investigate the possible association between the embrace of vaccine conspiracies and the attitude to booster COVID-19, seasonal influenza, and monkeypox (mpox) vaccinations as well as the perceived side effects following COVID-19 vaccination. The target populatio
Paleo-proxy data indicate that a “Green Sahara” thrived in northern Africa during the early- to mid-Holocene (MH; 11 000 to 5000 years before present), characterized by more vegetation cover and reduced dust emissions. Utilizing a state-of-the-art atmospheric chemical transport model, TM5-MP, we assessed the changes in biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions, dust emissions and seconda
Even if much is known regarding the effects of internet-delivered cognitive behaviour therapy (ICBT) for depression there are several topics that have not been studied. In this factorial design trial with 197 participants we investigated if clients in ICBT could select treatment modules themselves based on a selection of 15 tailored treatment modules developed for use in ICBT for depression. We co
Breastfeeding confers a wide range of benefits to mothers and children, and in many contextsmay continue for several years after the birth of a child. As a result, breastfeeding duringpregnancy (BDP) is a common occurrence throughout low- and middle-income countries.Nevertheless, yet there has been little research into its association with the health of breastfedchildren or the outcomes of the pre
Background Multimorbidity, the co-occurrence of two or more non-communicable diseases (NCDs), is common and has been linked to venous thromboembolism (VTE). Whether multimorbidity diagnosed in primary-care is associated with incident VTE remains unclear. We aimed to examine this association. Methods Multimorbidity was defined using Swedish primary-care data. Individuals without prior VTE were incl
To examine longitudinal trajectories of pain occurrence in children with cerebral palsy (CP) aged 1 year to 17 years.A longitudinal register-based study was conducted using data from the Swedish Cerebral Palsy Follow-up Program (2007-2023). Individuals (n = 4887) with confirmed CP, a minimum of three pain assessments, and any Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) levels were included
PURPOSE: To respond to the psychological needs of adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors, we developed and evaluated a theoretically grounded online intervention to teach adaptive coping skills to promote resilience in early survivorship: 'Recapture Life'. This qualitative study aimed to evaluate the process of implementing Recapture Life into community organisations, after having been
Abstract Title: Social services department’s modern centaurs – about social worker's dual role in cases of suspected crimes contribution Authors: Branislav Ros; Carl-Johan Martinsson Tutor: Lena Palvén Examiner: Elizabeth Martinell Barfoed The purpose of this study was to examine how social workers, in the social services department of economical aid, experience their dual role as helper
This comparative document analysis looks at the governmentality of the Finnish labor market policies (LMP’s). This study compares Sipilä’s and Marin’s government programs to see if there are differences. The focus is on depicting neoliberalization and power relations in the policies while investigating the framing of unemployment. The theoretical framework consists of the theory of neoliberal turn
