BACKGROUND: Prediction models for sentinel lymph node (SLN) status could potentially substitute surgical axillary staging in patients with early breast cancer. Several imaging modalities have been used with various feature extraction and selection approaches. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate prediction models for SLN status based on breast imaging in patients with early b

Assessment of bilingual children in only one language fails to acknowledge their distributed linguistic competence and has been shown to overidentify language disorder in bilingual populations. However, other factors, sometimes associated with bilingualism, may also contribute to low results in language assessments. Our aim was to examine the impact of these factors on language abilities. We used
BACKGROUND: In 2013, it was discovered that a subset of the population in Ronneby, Sweden was exposed to high levels of perfluorinated compounds (PFAS) from drinking water that had been provided by the local Brantafors waterworks and was contaminated by fire-fighting foam from a nearby airport. The start and time-course of population exposures are not known.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the start of P
Perceiving and understanding human motion is a fundamental problem in computer vision, with diverse applications encompassing sports analytics, healthcare monitoring, entertainment, and intelligent interactive systems. Multi-camera systems, by capturing multiple viewpoints simultaneously, enable robust tracking and reconstruction of human poses in 3D, overcoming limitations of single-view approach
Introduction Asthma may increase the risk of comorbidities and systemic inflammation, but population data are scarce. This study aimed to compare comorbidities and systemic inflammation between those with and without current asthma and to identify characteristics linked to comorbidities and biomarkers. Methods In a cross-sectional analysis of 28 828 people aged 50–64 in the Swedish CArdioPulmonary
Background: Obstetrical anal sphincter injuries are complications of vaginal birth that have the potential to cause substantial maternal morbidity. Predicting these injuries might help to improve maternal care as well as antenatal counseling and patient education. Previous attempts to create prediction models have in many cases involved variables only known postpartum, which limits their use in an
Objectives: To assess the existence of international, scientifically validated methods for manual surgical skills training and assessment. The aim was to create a descriptive chronological summary of the existing evidence and conclusions in the included articles. Methods: PubMed and Scopus were searched twice for reviews published between 1997 and October 2023 and between 1997 and January 2024. Th
Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is performed by surgeons from various specialties and remains central to minimally invasive surgical training. This study assessed whether surgeon subspecialty affects patient outcomes and explored aspects of LC education. Methods: This population-based study included 46,700 LCs performed between 2020 and 2023, using data from the Swedish Registry for
Background: There is limited data on the organisation of paediatric echocardiography laboratories in Europe. Methods: A structured and approved questionnaire was circulated across all 95 Association for European Paediatric and Congenital Cardiology affiliated centres. The aims were to evaluate: (1) facilities in paediatric echocardiography laboratories across Europe, (2) accredited laboratories, (
Background: Butaro Cancer Center of Excellence (BCCOE) was founded to serve Rwanda’s rural low-income population, providing subsidized cancer diagnosis and treatment with transport stipends for the lowest-income patients. We examined whether travel distance to BCCOE was associated with advanced-stage diagnoses and treatment completion. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using medic
INTRODUCTION: An increasing number of sub-Saharan African countries are implementing national health insurance schemes (NHISs) to support the aspiration of universal health coverage (UHC). A growing body of literature recognises the private sector role in improving NHIS equity in service access, public provider complementarity and overall member satisfaction. Zambia has implemented the NHIS since
Background and Hypothesis: To clarify, in a large, representative, longitudinal sample, the rate and predictors of diagnostic conversion from Bipolar Disorder (BD) to Schizophrenia (SZ) and from SZ→BD. Design: From individuals born in Sweden 1950–1995 and living there in 1970 or later, we identified at least one initial diagnoses of SZ (n = 8449) and BD (n = 8438) followed for a minimum of 10 and

Med 2024 officiellt uppmätt som det varmaste året hitills är klimatförändringarna och behovet av att minska utsläppen är mer aktuella än någonsin. Sveriges viktigaste uppgift i denna utmaning är att effektivt elektrifiera sina två största källor till koldioxidutsläpp: industrin och transportsektorn. Dessa två sektorer står tillsammans för hela 65 % av landets utsläpp. Elektrifieringen förväntas leThere is an urgent need to reduce CO2 emissions in Sweden, primarily caused by industry and the transport sector, which together accounted for nearly 65% of the country's total CO2 emissions in 2023. A key solution to this challenge is the rapid and effective implementation of green electrification, which involves transitioning industry and transportation to electricity and electricity-based f
Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka huruvida det kan utgöra en kränkning av de mänskliga rättigheterna i Europakonventionen när stater inte lever upp till sina klimatåtaganden och inte gör tillräckligt för att motverka klimatförändringarna. Uppsatsen inleds med en allmän överblick av klimatförändringarna och dess konsekvenser i förhållande till mänskliga rättigheter samt en genomgång av dThe purpose of this thesis has been to examine whether it can constitute a violation of the human rights protected by the European Convention on Human Rights when states do not do their part to counteract climate change. The essay starts off with a general overview of climate change and its consequences in relation to human rights, as well as a review of the two most central climate agreements, th
5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a versatile bio-based platform chemical that can substitute fossil-derived intermediates in polymers, solvents, and fuels, thereby contributing to a fossil-free chemical industry. While first-generation feedstocks such as high-fructose corn syrup have been widely studied, their use raises concerns about competition with food supply. In contrast, second-generation r
