Here, an acoustophoresis chip is presented that is capable of separating cancer cells from white blood cells (WBCs) and subsequently concentrating the recovered cells in the same chip. The chip utilizes ultrasound standing waves in two dimensions to pre-align, separate and concentrate the cells. 92% of the cancer cells could be recovered while keeping the contamination level of WBCs to only 0.6%.
Obesity and type 2 diabetes are causally related, yet there is considerable heterogeneity in the consequences of both conditions and the mechanisms of action are poorly defined. Here we show a genetic-driven approach defining two obesity profiles that convey highly concordant and discordant diabetogenic effects. We annotate and then compare association signals for these profiles across clinical an
BACKGROUND: Risk factors for Parkinson's disease (PD) can be more or less relevant to a population due to population-specific genetic architecture, local lifestyle habits, and environmental exposures. Therefore, it is essential to study PD at a local, regional, and continental scale in order to increase the knowledge on disease etiology.OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate the contribution of geneti
Developments in ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) technology have led to vast amounts of ECG data that currently need to be interpreted by human technicians. Here we tested an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm for direct-to-physician reporting of ambulatory ECGs. Beat-by-beat annotation of 14,606 individual ambulatory ECG recordings (mean duration = 14 ± 10 days) was performed by certified E
BACKGROUND: Self-reported mental stress is not consistently recognized as a risk factor for stroke. This prompted development of a novel algorithm for stress-phenotype indices to quantify chronic stress prevalence in relation to a modified stroke risk score in a South African cohort. The algorithm is based on biomarkers adrenocorticotrophic hormone, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-sensi
This study aims to investigate and disentangle the impact of land use and climate variability on the Baltic Sea coastal zone from a millennial perspective. To assess the environmental status of the coastal zone we make use of siliceous microfossils (mainly diatoms), stable nitrogen and carbon isotopes, organic carbon accumulation rates, and lithological changes analyzed in a sediment core collecte
Adolescent girls are particularly susceptible to iron deficiency due to increased iron requirements during the pubertal growth spurt, combined with iron loss following menarche. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of heavy menstrual bleeding in an adolescent population using the SAMANTA questionnaire and to explore its relationship with dietary habits and iron deficiency. This cross-sec
Single-cell and single-nuclei RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq and snRNA-seq) analyze cell-specific transcriptomes. However, only snRNA-seq applies to frozen biobanked samples. For human pancreatic islets, marker genes and reference-based cell type annotation methods are mainly from scRNA-seq datasets and may not be suitable for snRNA-seq. We compared human islet scRNA-seq and snRNA-seq data from the sam
By harnessing the powers of polycrystalline materials an unprecedented, technologically-driven age has taken formover the last 100 years. The polycrystal is today, arguably, the most central building block for electronics, renewableenergy, transportation and medical equipment industries. This material class is the reason for the emergence of thepowerful microprocessors, semiconductors, memory chip
Complex diseases are caused by a combination of genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors and comprise common noncommunicable diseases, including allergies, cardiovascular disease, and psychiatric and metabolic disorders. More than 25% of Europeans suffer from a complex disease, and together these diseases account for 70% of all deaths. The use of genomic, molecular, or imaging data to develop
The factors that influence the atherosclerotic disease process in high-risk individuals remain poorly understood. Here, we used a combination of vascular imaging, risk factor assessment, and biomarkers to identify factors associated with 3-year change in carotid disease severity in a cohort of high-risk subjects treated with preventive therapy (n = 865). The results show that changes in intima-med
AIM: SYT11 and SYT13, two calcium-insensitive synaptotagmins, are downregulated in islets from type-2 diabetic donors, but their function in insulin secretion is unknown. To address this, we investigated the physiological role of these two synaptotagmins in insulin secreting cells.METHODS: Correlations between gene expression levels were performed using previously described RNA-seq data on islets
AIMS: Our aim was to study the incidence of type 2 diabetes in a population-based cohort of Swedish and Iraqi born individuals, focussing on traditional risk factors, insulin action, insulin secretion and ethnicity.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The cohort consisted of 1164 Iraqi and 693 Swedish-born citizens. We investigated the association between new-onset type 2 diabetes and the predictors including l
Hur psykiskt störda lagöverträdare ska behandlas inom rättssystemet är en fråga som ständigt diskuteras. Denna grupp har sedan lång tid tillbaka särbehandlats inom straffrätten. Problematiken kring dessa lagöverträdare är väldigt komplex och några enkla lösningar går troligen inte att finna. Området präglas av motstående intressen, där humanitet och samhällsskydd är två av de mest centrala. UnderHow mentally disordered offenders should be treated in the justice system is an issue constantly under discussion. This group has for a long time been treated differently in criminal law. The questions of these offenders are very complex and no easy solutions are likely to find. This area is characterized by conflicting interests, where humanity and public protection are two of the most central.
