BACKGROUND: Current follow-up strategies for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after curative surgery rely mainly on risk models and the treatment delivered, regardless of the histological subtype. OBJECTIVE: To determine the impact of RCC histological subtype on recurrence and to examine the incidence, pattern, and timing of recurrences to improve follow-up recommendations. DESIGN, SETTING
A number of deleterious health effects have been identified from exposure to outdoor air-borne particulate matter. This issue is complicated by the fact that people are spending most of the time indoors, where particles of both indoor and outdoor origin are present. The aim of this work was to assess the differences in particle chemical composition inside and outside of the residence and gain bett
Normal birth is a eustress reaction, a beneficial hedonic stress with extremely high catecholamines that protects us from intrauterine hypoxia and assists in the rapid shift to extrauterine life. Occasionally the cellular O2 requirement becomes critical and an O2 deficit in blood (hypoxemia) may evolve to a tissue deficit (hypoxia) and finally a risk of organ damage (asphyxia). An increase in H+ c
In radiotherapy (RT), the treatment is thoroughly planned and optimized to fulfil the goal of delivering a high dose to the target, while sparing as much normal tissue as possible. This implies that the patient position and anatomy should be the same as they were during the planning image acquisition. To achieve this, it is important to have motion management methods for predicting, monitoring, an
Background/Purpose: There has been increasing interest in diet as a factor that may contribute to the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). There is limited and somewhat contradictory information on the impact of dairy products in this context. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between intake of various dairy products and the risk of RA in a nested case-control study.Me
Bakgrund: För att tillverkande företag skall kunna vara konkurrenskraftiga, så är det viktigt att kontinuerligt sträva efter att eliminera alla orsaker till slöseri. En av de verktyg som kan användas för att bekämpa slöseri är TPM, vilket huvudsakligen är ett strukturerat sätt för att öka företagets tillförlitlighet till sina maskiner och produktionseffektiviteten genom att förstärka företagets unBackground: In order for manufacturing companies to stay competitive today, it is important to continuously strive towards eliminating any sources of waste. One of the tools to address waste elimination is to work with Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), which essentially is a structured way of improving the company’s machine reliability and production effectiveness through enhancing the sites mai
Runt om i världen pågår en omställning av energisystem på internationell, nationell och regional nivå av en omfattning som inte noterats på många årtionden. Omställningen innebär i första hand en övergång från fossila, icke förnybara energikällor till fossilfria, förnybara sådana med huvudsakligt syfte att begränsa de antropologiska klimatförändringarna och andra negativa effekter på miljön. Den f
Genom samhällsutvecklingen utmanas gamla sjukdomsbegrepp och lagar. I medierapportering och forskning har självskadebeteende uppmärksammats allt mer. Självskadebeteenden kan ta olika uttryck och även sex har påvisats kunna utgöra ett medel för att skada sig själv. Idag finns det medicinsk forskning om sex som självskadebeteende och rättsvetenskaplig forskning om tillämpningen respektive tolkningenSocietal development is constantly challenging old concepts of disease and law. In media reporting and medical research, self-injurious behavior has received increased interest. Self-injurious behavior can be expressed in various forms. Sex as self-injury is a new concept in the research field and the current knowledge of sex as self-injury did not exist when the Care of Young Persons Act, hereaft
De senaste tio åren har antalet sökta bygglov för småhus med träregelstomme mer än fördubblats. I dagsläget finns inget allmänt krav att säkerställa horisontalkapacitet för småhus men är något som beställaren kan efterfråga och som många konstruktörer någon gång upplevt problematiskt. Projekteringsfasen kan bli tidskrävande där lösningar för att fastställa kapacitet mot vindlast blir dyra och kompIn the last ten years, the number of building permits applied for houses with timber frame structure has more than doubled. Today, there is no general requirement to establish horizontal capacity, but is something that can be demanded and that many structural engineers have occasionally experienced as problematic. The design phase can then be time-consuming, where solutions for determining capacit
I studien undersöks utmaningar och förbättringsförslag relaterade till arbetsmiljö, säkerhet och kommunikation inom byggindustrin för utländska arbetstagare, med extra fokus på länderna Polen och Litauen. Fri rörlighet för arbetstagare inom EU, som fastställs av artikel 45 i EUF-fördraget, möjliggör lika tillgång till både arbetsmöjligheter och behandling oavsett nationalitet. Syftet med studien The study examines challenges and improvement suggestions related to the work environment, safety, and communication within the construction industry for foreign workers, with a particular focus on Poland and Lithuania. The free movement of workers within the EU, as established by Article 45 of the treaty on the functioning of the European Union, ensures equal access to both employment opportuniti
In the future atmospheric CO2 concentrations might exceed 550 ppm according to the RCP8.5 scenario by mid-century from our current 410 ppm, while our world population is projected to surpass the 9.7 billion threshold within the same time span. This challenge leads to the raising of questions addressing future food security. Elevated CO2 has been shown to not only increase photosynthetic rates in
Alla människor har rätt till hälsa enligt artikel 12 Konventionen om ekonomiska, sociala och kulturella rättigheter (ICESCR) och artikel 35 i EU:s rättighetsstadga (stadgan). För många människor är läkemedel livsviktiga. Emellertid har läkemedelsbolag med patenträttigheter en möjlighet till fri prissättning. Företag behöver tjäna pengar för att kunna forska fram nya produkter och läkemedelsbolag kAccess to pharmaceuticals can be vital for a lot of people. The public’s right to health is ensured by article 12 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and by article 35 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European union (the EU Charter). However, pharmaceutical companies with patent rights can charge whatever price they want on medicines. Companies
Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an immune-mediated disease where the pancreatic beta cells are selectively destroyed by autoreactive CD8+ T cells. However, the triggering events that eventually leads to autoreactive CD8 T cells infiltrating the pancreatic islets and, subsequently, destroying them still needs to be unveiled. Genetic and epidemiological evidence points to a substantial influence of environ
Radiotherapy is commonly used for cancer treatment, given to approximately half of all cancer patients in Sweden. Despite its widespread usage, there is currently no non-invasive and reliable imaging method that can identify regions of radiation resistance. These regions may be identified by hypoxia, given that radiobiological research has demonstrated a significant correlation between oxygen leve
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka integrationsklausulen utifrån ett svenskt civilprocessrättsligt perspektiv. En integrationsklausul syftar till att visa att det skriftliga avtalsdokumentet utgör avtalsparternas fullständiga avtalsförhållande. Således ska det skriftliga avtalet ersätta alla tidigare förhandlingar, diskussioner och andra sådana prekontraktuella mellanhavanden som förekommitThe purpose of this paper is to analyze the integration clause from a Swedish civil procedural perspective. An integration clause is typically intended to show that the written contract is the entire agreement between the contracting parties. It thus supersedes all agreements, discussions and other such pre-contractual dealings that were undertaken before the establishment and signing of the writt
In the last couple of decades in Sweden, there has been an adoption of “workfare”-oriented policy approaches to unemployment (as opposed to the former, less conditioned welfare-oriented ones). Consequently, labour market policies more and more have started to encompass the Social Services Department (in Swedish; “socialtjänsten”). In Scandinavia, active labour market policies are commonly referred
Background: Middle Eastern (ME) immigrants to Europe have a higher prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) as compared to Europeans. Previous findings from the MEDIM population-based cohort (Impact of ethnicity and migration on diabetes in Malmö) have shown that ME immigrants are more insulin resistant before developing T2D as compared to native Swedes. However, knowledge is still lacking if there are
In the plant-based beverage industry, a residue called okara, is generated in large quantities in the liquid-solid separation step. Despite the high nutritional value of okara from soy and oat beverages with respect to fiber and protein content, these residues are generally discarded or used as animal feed or compost. It would be more sustainable to utilize okara for human consumption, however, th
Eye movements originally made during memory formation are often spontaneously reproduced during retrieval, even in the absence of visual input, directing gaze back to the locations where goal-relevant episodic information was previously encountered. This behavior, known as gaze reinstatement, is thought to support the reactivation of episodic content associated with those locations (e.g., Johansso
