Introduction This study aimed to evaluate the clinical impact of implementing routine emergency computed tomography (eCT) for all patients presenting with suspected acute renal colic at the emergency department (ED). Material and methods We did a retrospective observational study of all patients who underwent eCT for suspected acute renal colic at the ED in Helsingborg between May 9, 2023 and May

In this report, we present findings from a Swedish Universities of the Built Environment (SBU) project (2023) where we collected and synthesized examples of pedagogic tools used to strengthen students’ conceptual understanding in structural engineering—i.e., understanding key structural concepts, how they relate to each other, and how they connect to real-world structures and practice. The project

Background Treatment of severe hemophilia A (SHA) with FVIII concentrates is complicated by the development of neutralizing inhibitors in about 30% during the first 50 exposure days (EDs). Despite extensive research, inhibitor risk of different FVIII concentrates remains to be elucidated. Objectives This study aimed to analyze inhibitor development according to (classes of) individual FVIII concen

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

BACKGROUND: The study aimed to investigate patient and spouse perception of cognitive functioning 1 to 2 years after coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODS: Seventy-six married patients who had undergone coronary artery bypass grafting were selected and sex- and age-matched with 75 concurrent married patients who had undergone percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. Couples received a le

The recognition of a strong etiological relationship between infection with high-risk human papillomavirusses and cervical cancer has prompted research to develop and evaluate prophylactic and therapeutic vaccines. One prophylactic quadrivalent vaccine using L1 virus-like particles (VLP) of HPV 6, 11, 16 and 18 is available on the European market since the end of 2006 and it is expected that a sec

Lysine acetylation occurs in many protein targets, including core histones, transcription factors, and other proteins. Metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) is implicated in the progression and metastasis of various epithelial tumors. Because MTA1 functions as a transcriptional coregulator, much of its role in cancer promoting processes are likely to involve its ability to regulate the transcript

Background: The C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR) seems to mirror disease severity and prognosis in several acute disorders particularly in elderly patients, yet less is known about if CAR is superior to C-reactive protein (CRP) in the general population. Methods: Prospective study design on the UK Biobank, where serum samples of CRP and Albumin were used. Cox regression analyses were conduct

The effect of adrenalectomy (Adx) on pancreatic lipase and colipase activities in normal, streptozotocin-induced diabetic, and obese Zucker rats was studied. It was found that Adx induced a rapid decrease in amylase activity, a rapid increase in lipase activity, and a slow increase in colipase activity in normal rats. Twenty days after Adx, the levels of amylase activity were 70% lower than contro

Total offers have become increasingly common in the aircraft industry during recent years. The total offers bring on challenges as well as possibilities for the providers of engine maintenance. The possibilities, increased profitability and efficiency, are depending on how the organisation copes with the challenges. An important challenge is the transfer of risk that occurs in a fixed price situat

Although combined heat and power (CHP) production in Sweden is already largely decarbonised, this technology has further potential to alleviate pressing environmental concerns. Today, biobased CHP plants connected to district heating (DH) grids dominate the Swedish residential heating sector. The societal context in which CHP plants operate is, however, subject to continuous change. New aims and r

This article investigates the geographies of subprime urbanization, and by extension, the displacement of 2007–08 financial crisis to the Global South. Previous research examined the formative ways that technological innovations enabled mortgages to deterritorialize and circulate on secondary markets. Less is known about how cities with underdeveloped financial systems and housing markets have bee

Aim: Very preterm birth may be associated with lung function impairment later in life. It is not known if this is caused by prematurity per se or by associated perinatal events, such as maternal–foetal inflammation and severity of early neonatal lung disease. We assessed these factors in a prospective cohort of very preterm infants followed from birth to middle school age. Methods: In 71 infants w

Airway basal cells are crucial for regeneration of the human lung airway epithelium, and are thought to be important contributors to Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and other lung disorders. In order to reveal how basal cells contribute to disease, and to discover novel therapeutic targets, these basal cells need to be further characterized. In this study, we optimized a flow cytometr
