Survival after radiotherapy versus radical cystectomy for primary muscle-invasive bladder cancer : A Swedish nationwide population-based cohort study

Background: Studies of survival comparing radical cystectomy (RC) and radiotherapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer have provided inconsistent results and have methodological limitations. The aim of the study was to investigate risk of death after radiotherapy as compared to RC. Methods: We selected patients with muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma without distant metastases, treated with radio

Association between autoantibody markers and subtypes of DR4 and DR4-DQ in Swedish children with insulin-dependent diabetes reveals closer association of tyrosine pyrophosphatase autoimmunity with DR4 than DQ8

HLA DQA1(*)0301-DQB1(*)0302 (DQ8) and DQA1(*)0501-DQB1(*)0201 (DQ2) are positively and DQA1(*)0102-DQB1(*)0602 (DQ6) negatively associated with IDDM. In DQA1(*)0301-DQB1(*)0302 (DQ8)-positive patients, susceptibility is also mediated by DRB1(*)0401. The aim of the study was to determine the association between HLA-DR4 and DQ and the presence of GAD65, ICA512, and insulin autoantibodies as well as

Assessment of the mobile biofilm microbiome in distributed drinking water following installation of hybrid ultrafiltration process, in Varberg, Sweden.

Drinking water is delivered from the treatment plant to the consumer through kilometres of pipes. Lining these pipes are communities of bacteria living as biofilms. Little is known about the microbial ecology of these biofilms, as access to drinking water pipes for sampling is often limited to pipes sporadically removed for repair or replacement. Bacteria are constantly exchanged between the biofi

CP-North: living life in the Nordic countries? : A retrospective register research protocol on individuals with cerebral palsy and their parents living in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland and Iceland

INTRODUCTION: Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disabilities. Yet, most individuals with CP are adults. How individuals with CP fare in terms of health, quality of life (QoL), education, employment and income is largely unknown. Further, little is known about the effects of having a child with CP on the parents. The Nordic countries are known for their strong welfare

Scores of the Cleft Hearing, Appearance and Speech Questionnaire (CHASQ) in Swedish Participants With Cleft lip and/or Cleft Palate and a Control Population

Objective: The primary aim of this study was to investigate whether there was any difference in scores of the Cleft Hearing, Appearance and Speech Questionnaire (CHASQ) between patients with cleft lip and/or cleft palate (CL/P) and a control population. The second aim was to compare CL/P and control population scores in this study with a British norm CL/P population. Design: Single-site, cross-sec

The Historical Origins of the Mortality Gradient : Socioeconomic Inequalities in Adult Mortality over Two Centuries in Sweden

Mortality differentials by socioeconomic status (SES) are among the most pervasive facts of contemporary demography. However, while the mortality gradient by income, class and education is well-established for the period after 1970, evidence regarding the origins of the gradient is still scarce. The aim of this thesis is to explore the development of SES differences in all-cause and cause-specific

90Sr in northern Sweden : Relationships and annual variations from 1961 to 1969 in lichen, reindeer and man

The transport of fallout-90Sr has been investigated in the food-chain: Lichen-reindeer-man during 1961-1969. The maximum levels which occurred in lichen during 1963-1965 were about 13 nCi/kg dry wt. The90Sr-level in the lichen-carpet decreased to about 5 nCi/kg dry wt. in 1967-1969. The effective half-time of 90Sr in the lichen-carpet was estimated to be 2.5 ± 0.8 a. The vertical distribution of90

The Adolescents' Emotion Regulation Strategies Questionnaire: Initial validation and prospective associations with nonsuicidal self-injury and other mental health problems in adolescence and young adulthood in a Swedish youth cohort

Although there is extensive research indicating the vital role of functional emotion regulation (ER) in healthy psychological development, such research has neglected examination of adolescents. One potential reason for this neglect is the lack of valid ER instruments developed specifically for adolescents. Further, the available ER instruments for adolescents usually require elaborate forms of co

Effects of milk proteins and posttranslational modifications on noncoagulating milk from Swedish Red dairy cattle

Milk that does not coagulate after rennet addition, also called noncoagulating (NC) milk, is unwanted in cheese production due to prolonged processing time. Amounts of whey and casein proteins, genetic variants, as well as posttranslational modifications (PTM) of proteins are all contributing factors in rennet-induced coagulation of milk. In this study, we conducted a wide-ranging investigation of

Echocardiographic predictors of recoarctation following surgical repair – a Swedish national study

Background: Following surgical repair of aortic coarctation (CoA) there is a risk for restenosis (reCoA), particularly in the first year of life. It was the aim of this study to identify reCoA risk factors by analyzing postoperative pre-discharge echocardiograms. Methods: Retrospective analysis of echocardiograms of children born operated for CoA in Sweden 2011-2017. Results: 253 children were inc
