Purpose: Preeclampsia is a serious pregnancy complication without curative treatment. The central nervous system (CNS) is affected in severe cases of preeclampsia. Until now, no biomarker or other predictive method has been established for predicting severe CNS injury, including the development of eclampsia and/or long-term complications. In this systematic review, we aimed to investigate the asso
The Special Section on Post-growth food systems for a just social-ecological transition within planetary boundaries explores post-growth and degrowth approaches that advocate for sufficiency, care, regeneration, and the democratization of food systems. It shows that post-growth food initiatives face multiple structural barriers, including capitalist systems that prioritize profit over ecological a
Stjärnböckerna is a book series for teenagers that was published by Svensk läraretidnings förlag 1937–1950. This article investigates the launch of the book series in 1937, the content of the first four books, their reception and the marketing of the book series, with the aim to gain a deeper understanding of how the publisher performed literary value. The study draws on theories about literary
Fencing to exclude livestock is one of the effective strategies to passively reshape grassland ecosystem function, yet the dynamics of microbial community construction and their functional traits during restoration remain poorly understood. This study systematically sampled from various microhabitats (phyllosphere, litter, soil) within long-term fenced restoration areas, as well as areas with pers
Background: – The use of antibiotic-loaded bone cement (ALBC) in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is debated. Some argue that ALBC might only be justified in high-risk patients. This study assessed the effectiveness of ALBC vs. plain bone cement (PBC) in reducing risk of revision for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in TKA patients considered to have a high risk of infection.Methods: – Co
Background and purpose —The use of a tourniquet in knee replacement surgery is debated. Given the conflicting evidence, we aimed to compare the risk of revision after total knee replacements (TKR) with or without the use of tourniquet. Methods — In this register based observational study, we included the 5 most common cemented primary TKR models due to osteoarthritis reported to the Swedish Arthro
Aim: To evaluate the impact of initial mono- versus multitherapy on the ocular surface and related quality of life after 5 years follow-up in the Glaucoma Intensive Treatment Study (GITS). Method: The study included patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma who completed 5-year follow-up in GITS. Assessment of ocular surface disease (OSD) symptoms was done using a Sw
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the experiences of school nurses working with refugee children from Ukraine. Design: This research was conducted as a qualitative interview study, using an inductive approach and a semi-structured interview guide. Sample: School nurses (n = 8) from different parts of Sweden were interviewed, and the data were analyzed through a qualitative conten
BackgroundAcute-phase proteins (APPs) reflect systemic inflammation and nutritional status, yet their perioperative trajectories and clinical utility as biomarkers of outcome in advanced ovarian cancer (aEOC) remain unclear. We aimed to characterise perioperative APP fluctuations and assess their associations with postoperative complications.MethodsThis observational study included patients underg
Introduction: HIV guidelines recommend switching from a three-drug regimen (3DR) to dolutegravir + lamivudine (DTG+3TC) for eligible individuals. This retrospective national cohort study used Swedish InfCareHIV registry data to evaluate long-term outcomes of adults with HIV RNA <50 copies/ml who switched to DTG+3TC or a guideline-recommended 3DR between July 2019 and May 2023 in routine clinical c
INTRODUCTION: People with longstanding hip and groin pain (LHGP) are often referred to orthopaedic care. Physical therapist-led interventions are recommended in consensus statements as the first line of treatment, but it is unknown if structured interventions are more effective than usual care. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured physical therapist-led treatment
Background: Over time, family structures have grown more complex, diversifying adult relationships. While research has compared marital, cohabiting and living apart together relationships based on quality and health, less is known about their sexual dynamics. Theoretical frameworks suggest that co-resident relationships may integrate sexuality differently from living apart together unions, where p
BACKGROUND: Preeclampsia is a hypertensive pregnancy disorder marked by endothelial damage. Healthy endothelium is covered by a protective glycocalyx layer, which, when degraded, releases detectable products into the blood. Sphingosine-1phosphate (S1P) is a cardiovascular biomarker involved in glycocalyx preservation, linked to placentation and preeclampsia development. The study aimed to test the
Background and purpose — In complex primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA), constrained condylar knee (CCK) or rotating hinge knee (RHK) designs may be required to provide stability or address bony deficiencies. We analyzed trends in incidence of these designs in primary TKA and evaluated the mid-to long-term survivorship of CCK and RHK in 4 Nordic countries. Methods — From 2000 to 2017, 5,134 CCK
The report presents a bibliography of academic literature on transdisciplinary urban research. It includes journal articles, book chapters, and reports that engage with a wide range of theories, methods, evaluation techniques, and experiences of academic and non-academic stakeholders who conduct collaborative research on or related to cities.
The aim of this report is to provide insights on the expertise, knowledge, and experiences of conducting transdisciplinary urban research. To gather insights, we developed a set of questions based on a review of transdisciplinary research publications from 2010 to 2023 in the disciplines of Architecture, Planning, Geography, Urban Studies, and Sustainability Science. We used these questions as a g
This report summarises the insights we developed by conducting a literature review of the dominant approaches and experiences of transdisciplinary urban research. We conducted a World Wide Web search to identify key academic and non-academic publications between 2010 and 2023 in the disciplines of Architecture, Planning, Geography, Urban Studies, and Sustainability Science. We focused on those con
