Education in twins and their parents across birth cohorts over 100 years : an individual-level pooled analysis of 42 twin cohorts
(Inst för medicinsk epidemiologi och biostatistik / Dept of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, 2017-12-22)Whether monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twins differ from each other in a variety of phenotypes is important for genetic twin modeling and for inferences made from twin studies in general. We analyzed whether there ... -
A total-population multigenerational family clustering study of autoimmune diseases in obsessive-compulsive disorder and Tourette’s/chronic tic disorders
(Inst för medicinsk epidemiologi och biostatistik / Dept of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, 2017-11-29)The association between obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and Tourette's/chronic tic disorders (TD/CTD) with autoimmune diseases (ADs) is uncertain.

Why doesn’t everyone love reading e-books?
(Karolinska Institutet Universitetsbiblioteket / Karolinska Institutet University Library, 2017-11-15)Why do many students still prefer paper books to e-books? This article summarizes a number of problems with e-books mentioned in different studies by students of higher education, but it also discusses some of the unexploited ... -
Smoking cessation and risk of esophageal cancer by histological type : systematic review and meta-analysis
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2017-11-06)Smoking cessation is associated with a rapid and strong reduction in the risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The benefits of smoking cessation on esophageal squamous cell carcinoma are stronger in Western populations ... -
eIF5A facilitates translation termination globally and promotes the elongation of many non polyproline-specific tripeptide sequences
(Inst för mikrobiologi, tumör- och cellbiologi / Dept of Microbiology, Tumor and Cell Biology, 2017-10-31)eIF5A is an essential protein involved in protein synthesis, cell proliferation and animal development. High eIF5A expression is observed in many tumor types and has been linked to cancer metastasis. Recent studies have ... -
From transcriptional complexity to cellular phenotypes : lessons from yeast
(Inst för mikrobiologi, tumör- och cellbiologi / Dept of Microbiology, Tumor and Cell Biology, 2017-10-27)Pervasive transcription has been reported in many eukaryotic organisms, revealing a highly interleaved transcriptome organization that involves thousands of coding and non-coding RNAs. However, to date, the biological ... -

(Inst för klinisk neurovetenskap / Dept of Clinical Neuroscience, 2017-10-05)This report describes the results of a survey undertaking by NatMEG (the Swedish national facility for magnetoencephalography; www.natmeg.se), performed under the auspices of Swedish Bioimaging. The three Swedish national ... -
Health‑related quality of life after gastrectomy, esophagectomy, and combined esophagogastrectomy for gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma
(Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2017-09-04)BACKGROUND: The postoperative health-related quality of life (HRQOL) outcomes in patients with gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma after gastrectomy and esophagectomy are unclear.

Sensitivity of Salmonella YG5161 for detecting PAH-associated mutagenicity in air particulate matter
(Institutet för miljömedicin / Institute of Environmental Medicine, 2017-07-07)The Salmonella/microsome assay is the most used assay for the evaluation of air particulate matter (PM) mutagenicity and a positive correlation between strain TA98 responses and benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) levels in PM has been ... -
Interactions between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in complex mixtures and implications for cancer risk assessment
(Institutet för miljömedicin / Institute of Environmental Medicine, 2017-07-07)In this review we discuss the effects of exposure to complex PAH mixtures in vitro and in vivo on mechanisms related to carcinogenesis. Of particular concern regarding exposure to complex PAH mixtures is how interactions ... -
Nanomolar levels of PAHs in extracts from urban air induce MAPK signaling in HepG2 cells
(Institutet för miljömedicin / Institute of Environmental Medicine, 2017-07-07)Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are common environmental pollutants that occur naturally in complex mixtures. Many of the adverse health effects of PAHs including cancer are linked to the activation of intracellular ... -
