CONTEXT: Mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) is associated with increased mortality in patients with adrenal incidentalomas (AI), but little is known regarding the potential risk associated with non-functional adrenal adenomas (NFAA), which constitute the majority of AI.OBJECTIVE: Compare mortality risk in patients with NFAA, and different levels of MACS, to matched controls.METHOD: This was
Background:Parentally bereaved children are at increased risk of negative consequences, and the mediating factors most consistently identified are found to be related to family function after the loss, including cohesion. However, existing evidence is limited, especially with respect to children and youths’ own perception of family cohesion and its long-term effects on health and well-being. There
ContextUp to half of patients with adrenal adenomas found as incidentalomas show biochemical signs of subtle cortisol hypersecretion without having clinical signs or symptoms of Cushing’s syndrome. A condition called autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS). Previous studies have indicated that ACS might be associated with increased mortality.ObjectivesExplore if ACS is an independent risk factor for i
In recent years, global technology-based competition has not only intensified, but become increasingly linked to a more comprehensive type of competition between different political and value systems. The globalist assumptions of the post-Cold War era that reliable mutually beneficial agreements could be reached with all nations, regardless of ideology, have been shattered. A previously less visib

Reshoring, which refers to the relocation of previously offshored activities back to the home country, is a topic of growing interest in the literature. Two primary motivations for reshoring have been identified: the adoption of automation technology by firms and rising wages in offshoring destinations. In this study, wepropose a novel method for identifying and quantifying reshoring using micro-d
När en ny samverkansform – idéburet offentligt partnerskap – mellan det civila samhällets organisationer och det offentliga lanseras och uppmärksammas också i statliga utredningar, är det relevant att fundera på vilken fråga detta kan vara ett svar på. IOP, som samverkansmodellen ofta förkortas, avgränsas administrativt av vad det inte är: varken ett bidrag eller en form för upphandling. Trots sta
In large-scale mining contexts and the consequent generation of socio-environmental inequalities related to access to water, indigenous peoples and peasant communities demand the recognition of other ways of understanding water. In these contexts of dispute, emerge what we call plural water governances, which position diverse relationships and infrastructures of control of water in mining contexts
En mor hämtar hem sin knappt vuxne son efter att ha varit ifrån honom nästan hela hans liv. Slutligen har hon lämnat bakom sig det mörker hon ständigt försökt skydda honom från. Hon skrattar, de dansar. on köper en motorcykel åt honom. Han stjäl saker från henne och säljer dem på den lokala marknaden. Hon sitter bakom honom när han kör genom staden. Hon lutar kinden mot hans ryggtavla och känner h
Background Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular disease with a mortality rate of >80% if ruptured. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been previously implicated in AAA pathogenesis. In this study, we aimed to characterize the mitochondrial genetic landscape in AAA. Methods and Results Whole mitochondrial genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were performed in comorbidity matched 48 cas
