Gene expression profiling together with unsupervised analysis methods, typically clustering methods, has been used extensively in cancer research to unravel, e.g., new molecular subtypes that hold promise of disease refinement that may ultimately benefit patients. However, many of the commonly used methods require a prespecified number of clusters to extract and frequently require some type of fea

The primary aim of this study was to determine whether an increase in DLQI score can predict an eczema flare up and thus a need for treatment escalation/physician appointment. The secondary aim was to explore variations in DLQI over time.

BACKGROUND: The recent systematic adoption of intracameral antibiotic injection during cataract surgery in Sweden, India, and the US serves as a model for the successful transitioning of local quality improvement initiatives to organization-wide implementation. Although the delivery of eye care in the 3 countries is distinctly organized with differing governances and technological infrastructure,

If the primary function of avian-dispersed fruit coloration were the maximization of detectability, then the commonest avian-dispersed fruit colors should be the ones most detectable to birds. We tested this prediction by photographing 63 fruit species primarily dispersed by birds, in situ in Sweden and Australia, with a multispectral camera closely mimicking the predominant spectral sensitivities

OBJECTIVE: To investigate influence of whole-body cooling on cyclic GMP (cGMP) in women with Raynaud's phenomenon and in healthy women.DESIGN: The study was performed as an open, parallel-group comparison between women with Raynaud's phenomenon and healthy women during the winter month of February.SETTING: The municipality of Västerås (Sweden).PARTICIPANTS: The Raynaud group comprised 24 female pa

Large-eddy simulation (LES) of multiple-injection spray combustion under engine-like conditions is performed using a coupled model of an Eulerian stochastic field transported probability density function (ESF T-PDF) and a flamelet generated manifold (FGM). This coupled model allows the use of the T-PDF methods in modeling the interaction of turbulence and chemistry at affordable computational cost

Primary Raynaud's phenomenon (PRP) is characterized by cold- or stress-induced transient attacks of impaired skin circulation in fingers and/or toes. PRP displays seasonal variation with less severe symptoms in the summer. The aetiology has not been clarified. The aims of the present study were (a) to assess the influence of cold exposure on the plasma levels of the nitric oxide (NO) metabolite, n

1. Primary Raynaud's phenomenon (PRP) is characterized by increased vasoconstrictor tone that develops during exposure to cold. The symptoms are most pronounced during the winter months with low outdoor temperature. The L-arginine-nitric oxide (NO)-cyclic GMP (cGMP) pathway plays an important role in counteracting vasospasm. The aim of the present study was to investigate if the venous cGMP respon

1. Primary Raynaud's phenomenon is characterized by white fingers and toes with impaired perfusion in response to cold or emotional stress. The aetiology has not been clarified. In previous studies we have demonstrated a season-linked inability in women with primary Raynaud's phenomenon to raise their plasma cGMP levels in response to whole-body cooling, suggesting a dysfunction of the L-arginine-

Obesity, and obesity-associated conditions such as hypertension, chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, are important risk factors for severe Coronavirus dis-ease-2019 (COVID-19). The common denominator is metaflammation, a portmanteau of metabolism and inflammation, which is characterized by chronically elevated levels of leptin and pro-inflam-matory cytokines. These

We see a potential for ESS to benefit from sharing alarm data for machine learning applications, by establishing data ecosystem. To achieve these goal, ESS must make a strategic decision to pursue data sharing, establish a technical platform to share a digital twin, continue advancing the data ecosystem, and work towards a standardized reference model.

Text till programblad till pjäsen "Trädgårdsgatan" som hade premiär på Helsingborgs stadsteater 2021-02-20. Texten handlar om gatans långa historia som symbol och verktyg för att förstå Helsingborg och dess invånare på olika sätt.

Intersectional discrimination against people on the move underpins inadequate responses to COVID-19. The right to enjoy the benefits of scientific progress and its applications clearly demands substantive racial equality when designing economic and public health measures to address the pandemic.

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer in young adults has been implicated with a worse outcome. Analyses of genomic traits associated with age have been heterogenous, likely because of an incomplete accounting for underlying molecular subtypes. We aimed to resolve whether triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in younger versus older patients represent similar or different molecular diseases in the context of g
