”Varje läkare, vare sig han är i allmän tjänst eller enskilt utövar läkaryrket, åligger att i överensstämmelse med vetenskap och beprövad erfarenhet meddela patient de råd och, såvitt möjligt, den behandling, som patientens tillstånd fordrar,”Begreppet vetenskap och beprövad erfarenhet har åtminstone sedan 1800-talet följt svenska läkare, inte minst genom ovanstående bestämmelse i de läkarinstrukt
Sedan den första Harry Potter-boken publicerades år 1997 har intresset för fantasylitteratur ökat lavinartat. Miljoner av barn, ungdomar och vuxna har följt sina mest omtyckta fantasyhjältar och –hjältinnor på deras äventyr in i magiska världar, där verklighetens lagar utmanas, överskrids och ställs på ända. Men vad kan läsare lära sig om sin egen värld via karaktärernas upptäcksresor in i de magi
Objective Ventricular septal defects (VSDs), if haemodynamically important, are closed whereas small shunts are left without intervention. The long-term prognosis in congenital VSD is good but patients are still at risk for long-term complications. The aim of this study was to clarify the incidence of infective endocarditis (IE) in adults with VSD. Methods The Swedish registry for congenital heart
Purpose The AGO-OVAR 2.29/ENGOT-ov14/PENELOPE prospectively randomized phase III trial evaluated the addition of pertuzumab to chemotherapy in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian carcinoma with low tumor human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3)mRNA expression. We report the results of the primary efficacy analysis. Patients and Methods Eligible patients had ovarian carcinoma that progr
Joint pain is common in haemophilia and may be acute or chronic. Effective pain management in haemophilia is essential to reduce the burden that pain imposes on patients. However, the choice of appropriate pain-relieving measures is challenging, as there is a complex interplay of factors affecting pain perception. This can manifest as differences in patients’ experiences and response to pain, whic
Purpose: RENEB, ‘Realising the European Network of Biodosimetry and Physical Retrospective Dosimetry,’ is a network for research and emergency response mutual assistance in biodosimetry within the EU. Within this extremely active network, a number of new dosimetry methods have recently been proposed or developed. There is a requirement to test and/or validate these candidate techniques and inter-c
OBJECTIVE:: To evaluate auditory and vestibular function after presurgical treatment with gentamicin in schwannoma patients. BACKGROUND:: The vestibular PREHAB protocol aims at diminishing the remaining vestibular function before vestibular schwannoma surgery, to ensure less acute symptoms from surgery, and initiate a more efficient vestibular rehabilitation already before surgery. However, the po
Background and purpose — The epidemiology and optimal diagnostics of wrist injuries in children are not known. We describe fractures revealed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a prospective population of children and adolescents with posttraumatic radial-sided wrist tenderness, and compare the diagnostic value of radiographs and computed tomography (CT) with that of MRI. Patients and methods
Background: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive disease with short median survival. Molecularly, MCL is defined by the t(11;14) translocation leading to overexpression of the CCND1 gene. However, recent data show that the neural transcription factor SOX11 is a disease defining antigen and several involved signaling pathways have been pin-pointed, among others the Wnt/β-catenin pathway that
The associations of body mass index (BMI) and other anthropometric measurements with lung cancer were examined in 348,108 participants in the European Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) between 1992 and 2010. The study population included 2,400 case patients with incident lung cancer, and the average length of follow-up was 11 years. Hazard ratios were calculated using Cox proportional
Synucleinopthies are neurodegenerative diseases characterised by the formation of α-synuclein-rich intracellular inclusions in neurons and glia. Traditionally, animalmodels and immortalized cell lines have been used to investigate why and how theseinclusions form, and how they impact on cellular function. Recent advances incellular reprogramming and directed differentiation have enabled the genera
