Preface
Celebrated, Contested, Criticized : Anita Ekberg, a Swedish Sex Goddess in Hollywood
Persons' experiences of suffering from nephrotic syndrome.
BackgroundLittle is known about health and wellbeing among patients with nephrotic syndrome (NS), despite it being a serious condition in patients with renal failure. In order to promote health, it is important that both healthcare professionals and patients are aware of the signs and symptoms of the disease.ObjectivesThe aim was to explore patients’ experience of suffering from nephrotic syndrome
Comparison of outcomes in infected cardiovascular implantable electronic devices between complete, partial, and failed lead removal : an ESC-EHRA-EORP ELECTRa (European Lead Extraction ConTrolled) registry
AIMS: The present study sought to determine predictors for success and outcomes of patients who underwent cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) extraction indicated for systemic or local CIED related infection in particular where complete lead removal could not be achieved.METHODS AND RESULTS: ESC-EORP ELECTRa (European Lead Extraction ConTRolled Registry) is a European prospective lead ex
Målstyrningens förvandlingar inom svensk högre utbildning
Med Bolognareformen 2007 blev i princip all högre utbildning i Sverige, som omfattas av Högskoleförordningens examensordning, målstyrd på basis av ett särskilt sätt att relatera olika kunskapsformer till varandra, vilka kommer till uttryck i både Blooms taxonomi och den s.k. SOLO-taxonomin (= structure of the observed learning outcome). Sedan 2007 delas därför lärandemålen i examensordning, studie
Membrane processes and applications for biorefineries
The chapter provides an overview of membrane applications in conventional and lignocellulosic biorefineries. Driven by the trend towards “white biotechnology” the market and applications for membrane processes in biorefineries are growing rapidly since membrane processes have been identified as energy-efficient and highly selective separation processes in the different stages of biorefining. The a

Recruited fibroblasts reconstitute the peri-islet membrane : a longitudinal imaging study of human islet grafting and revascularisation
Aims/hypothesis: Rapid and adequate islet revascularisation and restoration of the islet–extracellular matrix (ECM) interaction are significant factors influencing islet survival and function of the transplanted islets in individuals with type 1 diabetes. Because the ECM encapsulating the islets is degraded during islet isolation, understanding the process of revascularisation and engraftment afte
Antibodies against neo-epitope of microbial and human transglutaminase complexes as biomarkers of childhood celiac disease
Tissue transglutaminase (tTG) and microbial transglutaminase (mTG) cross-link gliadins to form complexes that expose immunogenic neo-epitopes to produce tTG and mTG-neo-epitope antibodies. The aim of this study was to test the diagnostic performance of antibodies against non-complexed and complexed forms of transglutaminases, to correlate their activities to the intestinal damage and to explore ag
Self-assessment and subsequent external review as an effective model for improving drug use for elderly in primary care : A descriptive study of SÄKLÄK2
Rationale, Aims, and Objectives: Primary health care often has overall responsibility for elderly patients and their medication treatment. This is a challenging task due to the issue of multiple caregivers, different systems for documentation and multimorbidity among the elderly. The multiprofessional project SÄKLÄK2 was developed to raise drug safety in Swedish primary health care, and this study
Beyond participation : when citizen engagement leads to undesirable outcomes for nature-based solutions and climate change adaptation
Scholars and practitioners are increasingly promoting so-called nature-based approaches for urban climate change adaptation. There is widespread consensus that they both support and require transdisciplinary approaches, notably by involving citizens in the change process and finding innovative ways to unite different actors’ efforts and capacities. However, there is little empirical evidence regar

Mechanisms and therapeutic prospects of thrombopoietin receptor agonists
The second-generation thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor agonists eltrombopag and romiplostim are potent activators of megakaryopoiesis and represent a growing treatment option for patients with thrombocytopenic hematological disorders. Both TPO receptor agonists have been approved worldwide for the treatment of children and adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia. In the EU and USA, eltrombopag is
Treating murine inflammatory diseases with an anti-erythrocyte antibody
Treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases typically involves immune suppression. In an opposite strategy, we show that administration of the highly inflammatory erythrocyte-specific antibody Ter119 into mice remodels the monocyte cellular landscape, leading to resolution of inflammatory disease. Ter119 with intact Fc function was unexpectedly therapeutic in the K/BxN serum transfer model o
The tyrosine kinase receptor Tyro3 enhances lifespan and neuropeptide y (Npy) neuron survival in the mouse anorexia (anx) mutation
Severe appetite and weight loss define the eating disorder anorexia nervosa, and can also accompany the progression of some neurodegenerative disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Although acute loss of hypothalamic neurons that produce appetite-stimulating neuropeptide Y (Npy) and agouti-related peptide (Agrp) in adult mice or in mice homozygous for the anorexia (anx) mutation ca
DJ-1/PARK7 Impairs bacterial clearance in sepsis
Rationale: Effective and rapid bacterial clearance is a fundamental determinant of outcomes in sepsis. DJ-1 is a well-established reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger. Objectives: Because cellular ROS status is pivotal to inflammation and bacterial killing, we determined the role ofDJ-1 in bacterial sepsis. Methods: We used cell and murine models with gain- A nd loss-offunction experiments, pla
