Low Physical Activity is Associated with Higher BMI and Body Composition in a Middle-Aged and Elder Swedish Population, whereas Irregular Meals Show Weak Associations
Alpha-1 microglobulin as a potential therapeutic candidate for treatment of hypertension and oxidative stress in the STOX1 preeclampsia mouse model
Preeclampsia is a human placental disorder affecting 2-8% of pregnancies worldwide annually, with hypertension and proteinuria appearing after 20 weeks of gestation. The underlying cause is believed to be incomplete trophoblast invasion of the maternal spiral arteries during placentation in the first trimester, resulting in oxidative and nitrative stress as well as maternal inflammation and organ
Efficacy and safety of secukinumab in active rheumatoid arthritis with an inadequate response to tumor necrosis factor inhibitors : a meta-analysis of phase III randomized controlled trials
Objectives: To address the efficacy and safety of secukinumab in comparison with placebo in active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients who had an inadequate response to tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors. Methods: Databases of PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were searched to identify the relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were
The future of trans-jurisdictional water law and governance
An Okinawan-based Nordic diet improves glucose and lipid metabolism in health and type 2 diabetes, in alignment with changes in the endocrine profile, whereas zonulin levels are elevated
The Okinawan-based Nordic diet has been developed to improve glucose metabolism. The aim of the present study was to summarize all anthropometric, subjective, and biochemical findings obtained following two different studies investigating this diet. The diet was administered i) as a single breakfast to healthy volunteers and ii) as a 12-week dietary intervention to patients with type 2 diabetes. T

Parents’ journey caring for a preterm infant until discharge from hospital-based neonatal home care—A challenging process to cope with
Aims and objectives: To present parents’ lived experience of having a preterm infant cared for at the neonatal unit until discharge from hospital-based neonatal home care (HNHC). Background: Becoming a parent to a preterm infant has been reported as an experience that may influence the parent's lifeworld also after discharge. Interventions have been implemented at the NICUs, for example introducti

Present state analysis of business performance measurement systems in large manufacturing companies
The purpose of this article is to empirically investigate the present state of the performance measurement systems (PMS) at 7 sites of 6 different large Swedish manufacturing companies. The methodology has both a bottom-up and a top-down perspective. Important findings are that the PMSs are very similar in how they function but differ a lot in what is measured.
The Evaluation Of The Arterial Wall By High Definition Ultrassonography: The Impact Of The Atherosclerotic Risk Factors And its Relation With Advanced Forms of the Disease
Inadequate evaluation and management of suspected infections after TKA surgery in Lithuania : a retrospective study of 2,769 patients with 2-year follow-up
Background and purpose — The evidence-based algorithms for treatment of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) recommend surgical intervention in combination with the use of systemic antibiotics. However, still it is not unusual to treat total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients with suspected infection using only antibiotics. We investigated treatment pathways for TKA patients with suspected infection

Collective Leadership Dynamics among Professional Peers : Co-constructing an unstable equilibrium
Professional service firms (PSFs) are characterized by contingent and contested power relations among an extended group of professional peers. Studies of such firms can therefore yield important insights for the literatures on collective leadership and leader–follower relations. Yet to date PSF scholars have neglected the topic of leadership, and leadership scholars have neglected the context of P
Higher levels of serum zonulin may rather be associated with increased risk of obesity and hyperlipidemia, than wih gastrointestinal symptoms or disease manifestaiton
Zonulin is considered a biomarker of increased intestinal permeability, and elevated levels have been found in celiac disease. The primary aim of this study was to examine the association between serum zonulin levels and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, and secondarily, between zonulin levels and anthropometric and metabolic factors. The offspring (n = 363) of the participants of the Malmö Diet and
Peripheral and Central Sensitization of Pain in Individuals With Hand Osteoarthritis and Associations With Self-Reported Pain Severity
Objective: Pain sensitization, an important osteoarthritis (OA) pain mechanism, has not been substantially investigated in patients with hand OA. It is unknown how peripheral and central sensitization are related to self-reported hand pain. Methods: Individuals with verified hand OA in the Nor-Hand study underwent quantitative sensory testing of pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) locally (painful and
Nanoscale imaging of electric pathways in epitaxial graphene nanoribbons
Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are considered as major building blocks in future carbon-based electronics. The electronic performance of graphene nanostructures is essentially influenced and determined by their edge termination and their supporting substrate. In particular, semi-conducting, as well as metallic GNRs, can be fabricated by choosing the proper template which is favorable for device archi
RF reliability of gate last InGaAs nMOSFETs with high-k dielectric
A complete reliability study of the high-frequency characteristics for nMOSFETs on InGaAs channel with Al2O3/HfO2 gate dielectric is presented. DC gate voltage stress causes an increase in the transconductance frequency dispersion. Stress induced border traps degrade the maximum DC-transconductance, but do not react at high frequencies. The main degradation characteristics of the high-frequency me
Self-aligned gate-last surface channel In0.53Ga0.47As MOSFET with selectively regrown source and drain contact layers
III-V MOSFETs are currently being considered as a candidate for future high performance transistors [1]. In particular, In1-xGaxAs compounds are investigated for application in digital logic due to their advantageous electronic properties [2]. III-V technologies may be introduced beyond the 22 nm node, which will require a self aligned III/V device architecture as well as integration of high-¿ gat
