This thesis aims to strengthen the scientific basis for forensic assessments of single stab injuries to the trunk, which have traditionally been based upon professional experience rather than scientifically evaluated evidence. Using nationwide registries maintained by the Swedish National Board of Forensic Medicine, we conducted five studies including both fatalities and survivors of sharp force t
Context Substantial diagnostic delay in acromegaly contributes to increased morbidity and mortality. Screening attempts in high-risk groups have yielded few positive cases, underscoring the need for simple and precise prescreening methods. Objective Machine-learning analysis of facial images shows promise for acromegaly detection but requires validation in larger, well-characterized cohorts using
Light chain monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (LC-MGUS) is an asymptomatic precursor of multiple myeloma (MM) and related disorders defined by abnormal free light chain (FLC) testing. Recently, revised FLC reference intervals were proposed by the iStopMM study group. We evaluated their performance in a large population-based cohort. MGUS cases were identified from the Danish Lymph
The initiation of adaptive immunity requires antigen presentation in immune inductive sites. Classical dendritic cells (cDC) sense peripheral immune response inducing cues and migrate to the tissue-draining lymph nodes upon engagement, where they present acquired antigen to cognate T cells. Vaccines include adjuvants, which enable cDC activation and migration, both essential steps in the cascade l

128 Tesman as failed patriarch The economic framework that underpins aunt Julle’s behavior toward Hedda centres on the tension between investing in one’s self or giving of one’s self to another. This issue is connected to the idea of having a purpose in life, in that living for someone else can be construed as having a vocation. A logic of investment is at work that involves children and adults, w

We investigated associations between metabolic factors and blood cancer subtypes. Data on body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, blood glucose, total cholesterol, and triglycerides from seven prospective cohorts were pooled (n = 578,700; mean age = 44 years). Relative risks of blood cancers were calculated from Cox regression models. During mean follow-up of 12 years, 2,751 incident and 1,070 fata
The enhancement of the electromagnetic field elicited by localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is conducive to the generation of charge carriers, which have an important effect in driving many kinds of chemical reactions. Nonetheless, the short lifespan of charge carriers generated by plasmon (typically femtoseconds to nanoseconds) limits their effectiveness in promoting chemical reactions. H
Background: There is an unmet clinical need for novel therapies addressing the residual risk in patients receiving guideline preventive therapy for coronary heart disease. Experimental studies have identified a pro-atherogenic role of the oxidized LDL receptor LOX-1. We investigated the association between circulating soluble LOX-1 (sLOX-1) and the risk for development of myocardial infarction. Me
A polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assay using primers against the hepatitis C core gene has been described [Okamoto et al. (1992a): Journal of General Virology 73:673-679]. Within the two major HCV genotypes 1 and 2, the Okamoto system identifies two subtypes each (1a, 1b and 2a, 2b, respectively). Typing is achieved by a primary PCR with consensus primers followed by a nested PCR with type
Popular Abstract in Swedish Varje år insjuknar ca 7000 kvinnor i Sverige i bröstcancer och antalet ökar för varje år. Fortfarande är kunskapen om orsakerna till bröstcancer relativt okända, men många av de kända riskfaktorerna är kopplade till en hög halt av könshormoner i blodet. Faktorer i kosten som kan motverka effekten av könshormonerna är därför av stort intresse. Under 1990-talet inbjöds Diets high in fibre have previously been associated with decreased risk of breast cancer in the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort. Several potent compounds may exist in high-fibre diets that might protect against breast cancer, for example lignans. Plant lignans are converted to enterolactone by the gut microflora and are similar in structure to estrogens. Enterolactone may interact with the estrogen r
Popular Abstract in Swedish Autoimmuna sjukdomar, såsom typ 1 diabetes, uppstår till följd av en obalans i immunsystemet där immunceller ser kroppens egna vävnader som ett hot och angriper dem. Vid typ 1 diabetes är det de insulin-producerande β-cellerna i bukspottskörteln som förstörs, vilket leder till att man resten av livet får tillföra kroppen insulin genom injektioner. Anledningen till varföAutoimmunity, such as type 1 diabetes (T1D), arises as a result of tolerance breakdown against host tissues, i.e. the β-cells. Central tolerance is established during thymic T cell development and defects in key events during this process could contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. The work presented in this thesis was aiming at unravelling some of those aspects. We have investi
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Differences in risk factor profiles between lacunar and other ischemic stroke subtypes may provide evidence for a distinct lacunar arteriopathy, but existing studies have limitations. We overcame these by pooling individual data on 2875 patients with first-ever ischemic stroke from 5 collaborating prospective stroke registers that used similar, unbiased methods to define ri
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex systemic autoimmune disease caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Genome scans in families with SLE point to multiple potential chromosomal regions that harbor SLE susceptibility genes, and association studies in different populations have suggested several susceptibility alleles for SLE. Increased production of type I interferon (IFN) an
BACKGROUND: Host-related and environment-related factors have been shown to play a role in the development of tuberculosis (TB), but few studies were carried out to identify their respective roles in resource-poor countries. METHODS: A multicentre case-control study was conducted in Guinee, Guinea Bissau, and The Gambia, from January 1999 to March 2001. Cases were newly detected smear positive TB
Popular Abstract in Swedish Mellanörats funktion är att överföra och förstärka ljudvågor från luften i hörselgången till innerörats vätska. Denna överföring är optimal när trumhinnan är i neutral position, dvs när trycket i mellanörat och omgivningen är lika. Avvikelser i mellanörats tryck ses vid kroniska mellanöresjukdomar, fr a är det visat ett samband mellan negativt tryck och sjukdomstillstånThe middle ear (ME) pressure is regulated by gas diffusion over the ME mucosa and pressure equalizations via the Eustachian tube (ET). Disturbance in the regulation of ME pressure is believed to contribute to the development of chronic ear diseases.
