Weekday of cancer surgery in relation to prognosis
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2018-10-11)BACKGROUND: Later weekday of surgery seems to affect the prognosis adversely in oesophageal cancer, whereas any such influence on other cancer sites is unknown. This study aimed to test whether weekday of surgery influenced ... -
Does treating vascular risk factors prevent dementia and Alzheimer’s disease? A systematic review and meta-analysis
(Institutet för miljömedicin / Institute of Environmental Medicine, 2018-07-05)Background: Epidemiological evidence has associated Alzheimer’s disease (AD) with vascular risk factors (VRFs), but whether treatment of VRFs reduces the incidence of dementia and AD is uncertain. Objective: To ... -

Nordic registry-based cohort studies : possibilities and pitfalls when combining Nordic registry data
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2018-03-09)Aims: All five Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden) have nationwide registries with similar data structure and validity, as well as personal identity numbers enabling linkage between registries. ... -
Association between laparoscopic antireflux surgery and recurrence of gastroesophageal reflux
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2018-03-09)IMPORTANCE: Cohort studies, mainly based on questionnaires and interviews, have reported high rates of reflux recurrence after antireflux surgery, which may have contributed to a decline in its use. Reflux recurrence ... -
Cohort profile : the Nordic antireflux surgery cohort (NordASCo)
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2018-03-06)PURPOSE: To describe a newly created all-Nordic cohort of patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), entitled the Nordic Antireflux Surgery Cohort (NordASCo), which will be used to compare participants having ... -
Gastrectomy compared to oesophagectomy for Siewert II and III gastro-oesophageal junctional cancer in relation to resection margins, lymphadenectomy and survival
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2018-02-12)It is unclear whether gastrectomy or oesophagectomy offer better outcomes for gastro-oesophageal junction (GOJ) cancer. A total of 240 patients undergoing total gastrectomy (n = 85) or oesophagectomy (n = 155) for Siewert ... -
Serum proteases potentiate BMP-induced cell cycle re-entry of dedifferentiating muscle cells during newt limb regeneration
(Inst för cell- och molekylärbiologi / Dept of Cell and Molecular Biology, 2018-02-12)Limb amputation in the newt induces myofibers to dedifferentiate and re-enter the cell cycle to generate proliferative myogenic precursors in the regeneration blastema. Here we show that bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) ... -
Tenascin-C and fibronectin in normal esophageal mucosa, Barrett's esophagus, dysplasia and adenocarcinoma
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2018-01-31)BACKGROUND: Tenascin-C and fibronectin are adhesive glycoproteins modulating the structure of the extracellular matrix and cellular functions. Their expression and function in esophageal adenocarcinoma is poorly known. The ... -
Prenatal maternal psychosocial stress and offspring’s asthma and allergic disease : a systematic review and meta-analysis
(Inst för medicinsk epidemiologi och biostatistik / Dept of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, 2018-01-31)BACKGROUND: Prenatal maternal stress may influence offspring's atopic risk through sustained cortisol secretion resulting from activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-axis (HPA), leading to Th2-biased cell differentiation ... -
Meta-analysis of health-related quality of life after minimally invasive versus open oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2018-01-31)BACKGROUND: The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to compare health-related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes between minimally invasive and open oesophagectomy for cancer at different postoperative time ... -
Skeletal muscle dedifferentiation during salamander limb regeneration
(Inst för cell- och molekylärbiologi / Dept of Cell and Molecular Biology, 2018-01-24)Salamanders can regenerate entire limbs throughout their life. A critical step during limb regeneration is formation of a blastema, which gives rise to the new extremity. Salamander limb regeneration has historically been ... -
Neoadjuvant therapy in relation to lymphadenectomy and resection margins during surgery for oesophageal cancer
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2018-01-17)It is unclear whether gastrectomy or oesophagectomy offer better outcomes for gastro-oesophageal junction (GOJ) cancer. A total of 240 patients undergoing total gastrectomy (n = 85) or oesophagectomy (n = 155) for Siewert ... -
Normal values for calprotectin in stool samples of infants from the population-based longitudinal born into life study
(Inst för medicinsk epidemiologi och biostatistik / Dept of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, 2018-01-11)Faecal calprotectin is a protein used as a diagnostic marker for inflammatory bowel diseases.
