Differential of the peripheral blood is an important tool when assessing blood-related diseases. Lymphocytes are part of the immune system and morphological changes thereof should raise attention. CellaVision’s current systems automatically detect and pre-classify lymphocytes that exhibit atypical morphologies but do not further distinguish those into subclasses. By adding the subclasses into the
Since 2005 lesbian families has been able to receive help from the Swedish healthcare system in their longing to become parents. As the waiting time is long and the regulation of the fertility treatment is not adapted for lesbian families, they sometimes turn abroad for fertility treatment or get help from a private donor. These families have to undergo an investigation conducted by social workers
The objectives of this study were to explore active aging among people listed with an interest in relocation, and the relationships between active aging and aspects of perceived home. Using cross-sectional data from the 2022 RELOC-AGE project ( N = 1,509, mean age = 70 years), linear regression analysis was conducted. Women and individuals with higher self-rated health and education reported hig
The number and costs associated with reported sharps injuries in Swedish hospitals and the potential cost offset by introducing safety devices with needle and syringe was estimated from a health care perspective. Data about reported sharps injuries were collected from infection control nurses at 18 Swedish hospitals and information about the procedures following such injuries from doctors at Swedi
Protein drugs, such as therapeutic antibodies, are complex and require careful handling to maintain their efficacy and quality. Stress factors in hospitals, like temperature variations and mechanical shocks during transport, may negatively impact the stability of protein drugs (e.g. various monoclonal antibodies). The pharmaceutical industry possesses extensive knowledge about their product formul
Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a fatal, progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic mutations in the ARSA (Arylsulfatase A) gene. With the advent of presymptomatic diagnosis and the availability of therapies with a narrow window for intervention, it is critical to define a standardized approach to diagnosis, presymptomatic monitoring, and clinical care. To meet the

Context. 55 Cnc e is an ultra-short period super-Earth transiting a Sun-like star. Previous observations in the optical range detected a time-variable flux modulation that is phased with the planetary orbital period, whose amplitude is too large to be explained by reflected light and thermal emission alone. Aims. The goal of the study is to investigate the origin of the variability and timescale o
Syfte: Cancerforskning och relaterade innovationsprocesser saknar ofta en viktig komponent; patientdeltagande. Vi nyanalyserar tre studier (a-c) för att undersöka hur teorin Nuets förnöjsamhet kan användas för att förbättra patientens deltagande och psykosociala hälsa.Metod: Vi återanalyserade data från den klassiska grundade teoristudien om Nuets förnöjsamhet, baserad på fyra års observation och Purpose: Cancer research and connected innovation processes often lack a major component; patient participation. We revisit three studies (a-c) in order to explore how Momentary contentment theory may be used to improve patient participation and psychosocial health.Method: We revisited data from the initial (a) classic grounded theory study on Momentary contentment, based on four years of observat
A recurrent concern in nature conservation is the potential competition for forage plants between wild bees and managed honey bees. Specifically, that the highly sophisticated system of recruitment and large perennial colonies of honey bees quickly exhaust forage resources leading to the local extirpation of wild bees. However, different species of bees show different preferences for forage plants
Background: Gastric bypass (GBP) is a surgical method with good evidence of sustainable weight loss, reduced obesity-related comorbidities, and improved health-related quality of life (HRQoL). However, long-term data post-GBP is scarce on HRQoL related to other factors than weight loss, such as impact of socio-economic, age, and gender. Aim: To investigate long-term HRQoL in GBP patients. Methods:
Whereas the nature of the post-COVID condition following mild acute COVID-19 is increasingly well described in the literature, knowledge of its risk factors, and whether it can be predicted, remains limited. This study, conducted in Norway, uses individual-level register data from 214,667 SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals covering a range of demographic, socioeconomic factors, as well as cause-speci
PurposeThis paper aims to explore articulations of how individuals internalise official demands on handling COVID-19 and the function of social media in this process, and further to discuss this from a human rights’ perspective.Design/methodology/approachA thematic analysis of qualitative data from an international survey on COVID-19 and social media. The analysis was inspired by Berger and Luckma
In the first month of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, Sweden took the same strategy as most other countries, working to “flatten the curve,” by slowing transmission so that the healthcare system could cope with the disease. However, unlike most other countries, much of Sweden’s implementation focused on voluntary and stepwise action, rather than legislation and compulsory measures, leading to consider

Bone conduction hearing implant systems (BCHIs) are established treatments for patients with conductive or mixed hearing loss or single-sided deafness when conventional hearing aids are unsuitable. This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of the active transcutaneous system Sentio versus a similar system, i.e., Osia in an Australian setting. Scenario analyses also compared Sentio to other syste
