Outpatient Use of Antimicrobials in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis Before and After Treatment With Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitors : A Nationwide Retrospective Cohort Study

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of tumor necrosis factor α inhibitor (TNFi) initiation on the use of antimicrobials among biologic-naïve patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: Information on all biologic-naïve patients with RA was extracted from ICEBIO, a nationwide registry. Each patient was matched on age, sex, and calendar time to five randomly se

Pollinators, pests and yield—Multiple trade-offs from insecticide use in a mass-flowering crop

Multiple trade-offs likely occur between pesticide use, pollinators and yield (via crop flowers) in pollinator-dependent, mass-flowering crops (MFCs), causing potential conflict between conservation and agronomic goals. To date, no studies have looked at both outcomes within the same system, meaning win-win solutions for pollinators and yield can only be inferred. Here, we outline a new framework

Distal radius fractures and risk of incident neurocognitive disorders in older adults : a retrospective cohort study

Introduction: Distal radius fractures (DRF) are associated with increased risk of subsequent fractures and physical decline in older adults. This study aims to evaluate the risk cognitive decline following DRF and potential for timely screening and intervention. Methods: A cohort of 1046 individuals 50–75 years of age with DRF were identified between 1995 and 2015 (81.5% female; mean age 62.5 [± 7

A Scatterer Localization Method Using Large-Scale Antenna Array Systems

As ultra-massive multiple-input multiple-output (UM-MIMO) has emerged as a key technology for millimeter-wave and terahertz communications, the spherical wave propagation should be considered for channel modeling. Therefore, it is critical to identify the locations and evolving behaviors of scatterers, i.e., the sources of the spherical wavefronts. In this contribution, a novel space-alternating g

A Non-Stationary 6G V2V Channel Model with Continuously Arbitrary Trajectory

In this paper, a novel three-dimensional (3D) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) millimeter wave (mmWave) geometry-based stochastic model (GBSM) is proposed for sixth-generation (6G) vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) channels. In the proposed GBSM, clusters in the environment are divided into static clusters and dynamic clusters. Furthermore, the time-variant acceleration together with the integ

Outcomes of "Anterior Versus Posterior Divisional Branches of the Hypogastric Artery as Distal Landing Zone for Iliac Branch Devices" : The International Multicentric R3OYAL Registry

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this multicentric registry was to assess the outcomes of "anteRior versus posteRior divisional bRanches Of the hYpogastric artery as distAl landing zone for iLiac branch devices (R3OYAL)."METHODS: The main exposure of interest for the purpose of this study was the internal iliac artery (IIA) divisional branch (anterior vs posterior) that was used as distal landing zone. Early

Riktlinjer för synergonomi - belysning och synförhållanden på arbetsplatsen

Belysningsområdet befinner sig i inledningen av ett omfattande teknikskifte. Ett teknikskifte som bland annat påverkar de synergonomiskaförhållandena i arbetet. Den nya LED-tekniken gör det möjligt att utformabelysningsanläggningar som minskar energibehov och kostnader, samtidigt som bättre och trivsammare arbetsmiljö som främjar hälsa ochvälbefinnande kan skapas. Men ny teknik innebär också nya u

The Importance of Dosimetry and Radiobiology in Nuclear Medicine : Quantitative methods and modelling

Nuclear medicine uses radioactive pharmaceuticals for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. The ionizing radiation emitted from the radiopharmaceutical is partially absorbed within the patient's body and internal dosimetry is the method to estimate the absorbed dose to a tumour or risk organ. This is of special importance in radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT), where particle-emitting radionuclides ar

Occupational exposure to particles and biomarkers of cardiovascular disease—during work and after vacation

Objective: Ambient particle matter is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, little is known about associations between particles in occupational settings and risk of CVD. We investigated associations between occupational dust exposure and biomarkers of CVD, and potential recovery effects after vacation. Methods: Personal dust exposure measurements (respirable silica, respirable

EAHP 2020 workshop proceedings, pediatric myeloid neoplasms

The first section of the bone marrow workshop of the European Association of Haematopathology 2020 Virtual Meeting was dedicated to pediatric myeloid neoplasms. The section covered the whole spectrum of myeloid neoplasms, including myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPN), and acute myeloid leukemia. The workshop ca

The recognition and management of neuropsychiatric symptoms in early Alzheimer's disease : a qualitative study among Dutch memory clinic physicians

Background: Timely recognition and treatment of neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) in Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia may improve quality of life, reduce caregiver burden, and delay disease progression. However, management of NPS in early AD dementia remains challenging. To date, little is known about the specific challenges for memory clinic-based physicians. The aims of this qualitative study wer
