Sugar-sweetened beverage consumption and genetic predisposition to obesity in 2 Swedish cohorts
Background: The consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), which has increased substantially during the last decades, has been associated with obesity and weight gain. Objective: Common genetic susceptibility to obesity has been shown to modify the association between SSB intake and obesity risk in 3 prospective cohorts from the United States. We aimed to replicate these findings in 2 large

Incidence and risk factors for thromboembolism and major bleeding in patients with mechanical valve prosthesis : A nationwide population-based study
Risk factors of stroke/thromboembolism (TE) and major bleeding, and incidence of these events in specific age categories in warfarin-treated patients with mechanical heart valves (MHV) are uncertain. Our objective was to calculate event rates in specific age categories and identify risk factors for adverse events. Methods and results We identified 4,810 treatment periods with MHV between January 2

Hypertension in adults with repaired coarctation of the aorta
Aims In adults with coarctation of the aorta (CoA), hypertension (HTN) is a common long-term complication. We investigated the prevalence of HTN and analyzed factors associated with HTN. Methods and results In the national register for congenital heart disease, 653 adults with repaired CoA were identified (mean age 36.9 ± 14.4 years); 344 (52.7%) of them had HTN, defined as either an existing diag
No breast cancer subgroup can be spared postoperative radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery. Fifteen-year results from the Swedish Breast Cancer Group randomised trial, SweBCG 91 RT
Background Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) followed by radiotherapy (RT) is an established treatment for women with T1-2N0 breast cancers. Since subgroups of patients have low ipsilateral breast tumour recurrence (IBTR) rates, it is important to study whether RT is necessary for all patients. Patients and methods A total of 1187 women with primary T1-2N0M0 breast cancer were randomised, after stan
Torsten Almén (1931-2016) : The father of non-ionic iodine contrast media
The Swedish radiologist Torsten Almén is the first clinical radiologist ever to have made a fundamental contribution to intravascular contrast medium design, the development of non-ionic contrast media. He became emotionally triggered by the patients' severe pain each time he injected the ionic "high-osmolar" contrast media when performing peripheral arteriographies in the early 1960s. One day he
Increased risk of hip fracture among spouses : evidence of a homogamy effect
Summary: Spouses tend to share habits and therefore have an increased risk of same diseases. We followed all married couples in Sweden, born 1902 to 1942, in hospital records from 1987 to 2002, and found that individuals whose spouse had a hip fracture had an increased risk of hip fracture. Introduction: The purpose of this study was to determine whether spouses of hip fracture patients have an el

Causal links of past climate change in Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 climate models
Klimatsystemet påverkas av diverse externa faktorer (vulkanism, solaktivitet och förändringar i växthusgaskoncentration) och dess eget interna klimatvariabilitet. När man utvärderar orsakerna till tidigare klimatförändringar är det viktigt att öka vår kunskap om påverkan från externa faktorer samt förstå sambandet mellan de större interna faktorer som styr klimatet för att kunna förutsäga framtidaThe climate system is influenced by various external forcings (e.g. volcanic forcing, solar forcing and change of greenhouse gas concentrations) and its own internal climate variability. While evaluating the causes of past climate change is important to expand our knowledge of the impacts of different external forcings, understanding the coupling between major internal climate drivers is crucial f

Entangled Cities : Transnational Municipal Climate Networks and Urban Governance
This thesis investigates the influence of transnational municipal climate networks (TMCNs) on urban climate governance in Germany. The reality of climate change means that cities all over the world are faced with two challenges. First, they need to go through decarbonisation transitions to mitigate climate change. Second, they need to adapt to the conditions of a changing climate. The growth of ci

Digitalisering och konsumentintresset. En litteraturöversikt
Detta är en pilotstudie som är utförd av Stefan Larsson, docent i teknik och social förändring vid Lunds universitets internetinstitut (LUii). Studien har utförts under 2016 på uppdrag av Konsumentverket i syfte att peka ut några av de för konsumentintresset viktigaste aspekterna med digitaliseringen. När man studerar digitalisering och dess konsumentbetydelse så ser man ganska snart att dess effe
