An Extended Swedish Adoption Study of Anxiety Disorder and Its Cross-Generational Familial Relationship With Major Depression

OBJECTIVE: To clarify, using an extended adoption design, the sources of parent-offspring transmission for anxiety disorder (AD) and its major subforms and their familial cross-generational relationship with major depression (MD). METHODS: Offspring (born 1960-1992) and their parents, from six family types (intact, not-lived-with biological father or mother, lived-with step-father or step-mother,

Ett osteologiskt återbesök till djurbenen från grophusen i Löddeköpinge 90:1 (SU1990)

[utdrag ur rapportens sammanfattning] Denna rapport behandlar djurbenen från grophusen i Löddeköpinge 90:1, vilka grävdes under 1990. Materialet består av 4638 fragment (ca 31 kg) från 28 grophus. Majoriteten kommer från vikingatida grophus. Analysen kan klassas som ett "återbesök" då materialet tidigare studerats av Johansson (2000). Analysen här aktualiseras av att Löddeköpinge kommer ingå i ett

Genealogy making and lineages in postsocialist China : Space, labor, and rituals under processes of heritagization

This photo essay addresses the work and rituals surrounding the making and printing of genealogies in post-socialist China. The essay documents how lineages and printmakers negotiate a new socio-economic environment under the process of heritagization, the materiality and labor of printmaking, and the spaces in which work and rituals takes place. It adds to our understanding of the continuing impo

Webs of World Order : A Relational Theory of Rising Powers and the Evolution of International Order

This dissertation advances a relational theory of rising powers and their influence on international order. The emergence of new great powers and the relative decline of incumbent ones is an inherent feature of world politics. In the modern world, these power transitions have taken place against the background of a core- periphery shaped structure of global relations. Great powers vied for dominan

Tensor-valued diffusion magnetic resonance imaging in a radiotherapy setting

Background and purposeDiagnostic information about cell density variations and microscopic tissue anisotropy can be gained from tensor-valued diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These properties of tissue microstructure have the potential to become novel imaging biomarkers for radiotherapy response. However, tensor-valued diffusion encoding is more demanding than conventional encoding, and

Prevalence of potential drug-drug interactions with disease-specific treatments in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension : A registry study

Polypharmacy increases the risk of drug-drug interactions that may disturb treatment effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of codispensing of potentially interacting or contraindicated drugs related to PH-specific treatment in the Swedish pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) population. All prescribed drugs, on an

Self-Perceived Competence of Ambulance Nurses in the Care of Patients with Mental Illness : A Questionnaire Survey

Ambulance nurses in prehospital emergency care must assess, treat, and triage patients with mental health issues. This study aimed to investigate the self-perceived competence of ambulance nurses in prehospital emergency care of patients with mental illness. A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was done, a question-index value (Q-IV; range: 0-1.0) was defined as a summary of the proportion of po

Correction of magnetization transfer saturation maps optimized for 7T postmortem MRI of the brain

PurposeMagnetization transfer saturation (MTsat) is a useful marker to probe tissue macromolecular content and myelination in the brain. The increased B1+ inhomogeneity at 7T and significantly larger saturation pulse flip angles which are often used for postmortem studies exceed the limits where previous B1+correction methods are applicable. Here, we develop a calibration-based correction model an

Postmenopausal overweight and breast cancer risk; results from the KARMA cohort

Purpose: To study the risk of incident breast cancer and subtype-specific breast cancer in relation to excess body weight in a contemporary Swedish prospective cohort study, The Karolinska Mammography Project for Risk Prediction of Breast Cancer, KARMA. Methods: A total of 35,412 postmenopausal women attending mammography and included in the KARMA study provided baseline data on body mass index (B

Massive MIMO for Dependable Communication

Cellulär kommunikation utvecklas ständigt; för närvarande installeras 5G-system och forskning kring 6G pågår. Tre användningsfall som diskuteras är enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine-type communication (mMTC) och ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC). För att uppfylla kraven i dessa användningsfall behövs ny teknik och en kandidat är massive multiple-input multiple-outputCellular communication is constantly evolving; currently 5G systems are being deployed and research towards 6G is ongoing. Three use cases have been discussed as enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine-type communication (mMTC), and ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC). To fulfill the requirements of these use cases, new technologies are needed and one enabler is massive mult

Playing in the yard : The representation of control in train-graffiti videos

During the last 10 years, the mobile phone and the emergence of websites, such as Youtube, which facilitate user-generated content, have enabled an explosion of pictures and video clips posted on the internet by civilians documenting the activities of authority figures. This “sousveillance” is a kind of inverse surveillance, reciprocal to surveillance, where members of the grassroots monitor those

An evaluation of data processing when using the ActiGraph GT3X accelerometer in non-ambulant children and adolescents with cerebral palsy

PURPOSE: To evaluate vertical acceleration, vector magnitude, non-wear time, valid day classifications and valid period classifications, in the data processing phase when using the ActiGraph GT3X accelerometer in non-ambulant children and adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP).MATERIAL AND METHODS: Accelerometer data retrieved from 33 non-ambulant children and adolescents (4-17 years) with CP, were

Increasing the Net Negative Charge by Replacement of DOTA Chelator with DOTAGA Improves the Biodistribution of Radiolabeled Second-Generation Synthetic Affibody Molecules

A promising strategy to enable patient stratification for targeted therapies is to monitor the target expression in a tumor by radionuclide molecular imaging. Affibody molecules (7 kDa) are nonimmunoglobulin scaffold proteins with a 25-fold smaller size than intact antibodies. They have shown an apparent potential as molecular imaging probes both in preclinical and clinical studies. Earlier, we fo

Site-Specific Radioiodination of HER2-Targeting Affibody Molecules using 4-Iodophenethylmaleimide Decreases Renal Uptake of Radioactivity

Affibody molecules are small scaffold-based affinity proteins with promising properties as probes for radionuclide-based molecular imaging. However, a high reabsorption of radiolabeled Affibody molecules in kidneys is an issue. We have shown that the use of (125)I-3-iodo-((4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl)maleimide (IHPEM) for site-specific labeling of cysteine-containing Affibody molecules provides high tum

Physiotherapists' knowledge of and adherence to evidence-based practice guidelines and recommendations for ankle sprains management : a cross-sectional study

BACKGROUND: Lateral ankle sprain (LAS) is a common and burdensome injury. However, the quality of its management is scant. Nowadays, physiotherapy management of musculoskeletal diseases seems to be generally not based on research evidence. Studies that investigated the knowledge-to-practice gap in LAS management are yet to be carried out. Therefore, this research investigated physiotherapists' kno
