OBJECTIVES: This study investigates the expansion of CAR T-cells and its association to treatment outcome.METHODS: Patients with aggressive B-cell lymphomas treated with anti-CD19 CAR T-cell therapy axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) at Skåne and Sahlgrenska University Hospitals from 2019 to October 2024 were included. CAR T-cells in peripheral blood were measured by flow cytometry. Association bet

Whereas a considerable literature emphasizes the role and function of municipalities and regions in the European Union (EU) as an expression of multilevel governance, a parallel literature has emerged which projects a view of the EU as an example of multilevel administration. This latter literature directs attention towards emerging vertical linkages implying new chains of accountability and

The role of quantum coherence in photochemical functions of molecular systems such as photosynthetic complexes is a broadly debated topic. Coexistence and intermixing of electronic and vibrational coherences has been proposed to be responsible for the observed long-lived coherences and high energy transfer efficiency. However, clear experimental evidence of coherences with different origins operat

Previous work has suggested that the βArg-10 residue forms part of the binding site for the B800 bacteriochlorophyll in the LH2 complex of Rhodobacter sphaeroides [Crielaard, W., Visschers, R. W., Fowler, G. J. S., van Grondelle, R., Hellingwerf, K. J., Hunter, C. N. (1994) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1183, 473−482], and this is consistent with the X-ray crystallographic data that have been subsequent

Background: We aimed to study the long-term effect of smoking on coronary atherosclerosis progression at the segmental level. Methods: Angiographic data (1989-2017) on current, former, and nonsmokers were collected from the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry. The Western Denmark Heart Registry was used to validate the results. Patients with clinically indicated angiography with

Digitalization is transforming the tax landscape, reshaping the operations of tax departments, authorities, and professionals. With rapid digital advancement, there has been a shift toward real-time reporting, e-invoicing, and greater reliance on digital data. This change is driven by investments in data analytics, robotic process automation, cloud platforms, and, more recently, artificial intelli

PURPOSE: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is defined as 30 decibels (dB) hearing loss in 3 consecutive frequencies occurring within 72 h. Pure-tone average of four frequencies (PTA4) is commonly used to evaluate hearing levels but may not accurately reflect the recovery. We aimed to identify prognostic factors for recovery and to evaluate how recovery should be assessed, by comparing PTA4

There is an urgent need for accurate and validated methods to measure plasma phosphorylated tau (p-Tau) biomarkers in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, we compared the performance of new commercially available plasma p-Tau217 assay developed by ALZpath to other established p-Tau assays in an autopsy-confirmed sample. We included 72 participants from the Arizona Study of Aging and Neurodegen

Background Olfactory dysfunction is a common non-motor symptom in Parkinson’s disease (PD). The objective was to evaluate the association between olfaction in PD with cross-sectional and longitudinal assessments of clinical variables and novel cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) markers. Methods Patients with PD and baseline olfactory function assessed using the Brief Smell Identification Test (B-SIT) were

Background There is limited knowledge on whether prior knee surgery impacts the clinical profile and treatment outcomes for individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Objectives The study aimed to (i) compare individual and clinical characteristics, and (ii) evaluate whether outcomes of first-line treatment differ between individuals with prior knee surgery and those without. Methods This study us

Objectives There is a lack of knowledge about whether occupational exposures increase the risk of emphysema, especially in never-smokers. Our objective was to determine if occupational exposures are associated with emphysema and impaired diffusing capacity. Methods In the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS), persons from the general population aged 50–64 answered a questionnaire and un

During graded exercise, systolic blood pressure (SBP) is expected to increase linearly, but other responses are observed. To date, a framework for algorithmic assessment of the shape of the SBP response is lacking, making its physiological and clinical relevance poorly understood. We aimed to algorithmically identify distinct SBP response shapes and analyze their association with clinical factors

Nanoplastics are emerging environmental contaminants that increasingly threaten soil ecosystems, yet their effects on microbial behavior remain poorly understood. This is mainly due to the lack of experimental tools capable of directly observing microbial dynamics in situ under realistic soil-like conditions. Here, we present a proof-of-concept system that enables real-time, high-throughput monito

The purpose of this study was to examine and understand young people's expectations and perceptions of romantic relationships and their views on control and jealousy within them. The aim of this study was also to explore how young people understand control and jealousy in relation to psychological and digital violence. The study was based on a qualitative method, and seven semi-structured inte

Obesity may exacerbate colorectal cancer (CRC) prognosis, yet previous studies have shown inconsistent findings due to methodological limitations. In this nationwide cohort study, we investigated the association between body mass index (BMI) on CRC recurrence and mortality, while examining the influence of demographic, clinical, and socioeconomic characteristics.
