Abstrakt Bakgrund: Kompressionsbehandling är avgörande för behandling av venösa bensår. Risken att drabbas av venösa bensår ökar med åldern och i takt med en stigande äldre befolkning innebär det ett växande behov av sårvård samt kompressionsbehandling. Behandling av venösa bensår sker främst i primärvården där distriktssköterskan har huvudansvar för sårvården. Patienter kan uppleva vissa svårig

Background: This project plan proposes a new learning activity and assessment model of medical students' empathy and communication skills. An empathic ability and communication skills are crucial in a student future role as a physician. Empathy and communication skills are also Entrustable Professional Activities in most undergraduate medical educational programs1.Method: The students are first in

This study explores the relationship between women's economic empowerment and intimate partner violence (IPV), measured as women's hospital visits for assault. Using longitudinal Swedish administrative data, I proxy women's economic empowerment with a measure of potential relative earnings of married spouses caused by local changes in gender-specific labour demand. The findings reveal that an incr

This paper introduces P-expo, a do-it-yourself open-source software solution for enhancing online lectures. P-expo seamlessly integrates text, images, videos, webcams, and audio, with support for text-based tools like git for collaboration. Additionally, the paper introduces affordable DIY hardware components to enrich online education seminars, and presents a curated selection of accessible open-

Evidence grows that standard toxicity testing might underestimate the environmental risk of neurotoxic insecticides. Behavioural endpoints such as locomotion and mobility have been suggested as sensitive and ecologically relevant additions to the standard tested endpoints. Possible interactive effects of chemicals and additional stressors are typically overlooked in standardised testing. Therefore

Background: Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a prevalent cardiovascular disorder after COVID-19 infection. Although POTS is characterized by the presence of sinus tachycardia, other hemodynamic disturbances including blood pressure (BP) regulation, remain largely unexplored.Aims: We investigated BP changes using 24-hour ambulatory-BP-monitoring in patients with new-onset POTS af

This exhibition of new sculptural works by the artist coincides with the launch of a new series of prints by Rosa Barba published by, and only available through Cahiers d’Art; featuring two distinct series of unique Monoprints and two Limited Edition print series. After spending time among the archives of Cahiers d’Art, Rosa Barba drew inspiration from the original copper printing plates featuring

The exhibition features Aggregate States of Matters (2019), a film shot in the Peruvian Andes with the support of proyectoamil, in addition to a selection of her recent work. In 2002, Rosa Barba had one of her first exhibitions at the Sala Luis Miro-Quesada Garland in Miraflores (Lima) which started her enduring connection with Peru. During that visit Barba travelled extensively throughout the cou

Observations of ionized H αgas in high-redshift disc galaxies have ubiquitously found significant line broadening, σH α∼10 -100 km s-1 . To understand whether this broadening reflects gas turbulence within the interstellar medium (ISM) of galactic discs, or arises from out-of-plane emission in mass-loaded outflows, we perform radiation hydrodynamic simulations of isolated Milky Way-mass disc galax

IMPORTANCE: In patients with clinically node-negative (cN0) breast cancer and 1 or 2 sentinel lymph node (SLN) macrometastases, omitting completion axillary lymph node dissection (CALND) is standard. High nodal burden (≥4 axillary nodal metastases) is an indication for intensified treatment in luminal breast cancer; hence, abstaining from CALND may result in undertreatment.OBJECTIVE: To develop a

The left lateralization of language has been attributed to hemispheric specialization for processing rapidly changing information. While interhemispheric differences in auditory cortex organization support this view, the macrostructure of the entire cerebral cortex has not been thoroughly examined from this perspective. This study investigated hemispheric asymmetries in cortical surface area and t

Objective. Despite the growing interest in understanding the role of triggers of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), solutions beyond questionnaires to identify a broader range of triggers remain lacking. This study aims to investigate the relation between triggers detected in wearable-based physiological signals and the occurrence of AF episodes. Approach. Week-long physiological signals were co

UNLABELLED: Serine protease inhibitors (serpins) constitute the largest family of protease inhibitors expressed in humans, but their role in infection remains largely unexplored. In infected macrophages, the mycobacterial ESX-1 type VII secretion system permeabilizes internal host membranes and causes leakage into the cytosol of host DNA, which induces type I interferon (IFN) production via the cy
