Blood neurofilament light concentration at admittance: a potential prognostic marker in COVID‑19
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Objective To test the hypotheses that blood biomarkers for nervous system injury, serum concentrations of neurofilament light chain protein (NfL) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAp) can serve as biomarkers for ... -
Blood steroid levels predict survival in endometrial cancer and reflect tumor estrogen signaling
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-02)Objective Blood-based biomarkers are attractive due to ease of sampling and standardized measurement technology, reducing obstacles to clinical implementation. The objective of this study was to evaluate a clinically ... -
Bloodlettings in Hemochromatosis Result in Increased Blood Lead (Pb) Concentrations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Hemochromatosis is a hereditary disorder, most often associated with mutations of the HFE (High FErrum) gene. If left untreated, it can result in severe parenchymal iron accumulation. Bloodletting is the mainstay treatment. ... -
BLR1 and FCGR1A transcripts in peripheral blood associate with the extent of intrathoracic tuberculosis in children and predict treatment outcome
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-12-12)Biomarkers reflecting the extent of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-induced pathology and normalization during anti-tuberculosis treatment (ATT) would considerably facilitate trials of new treatment regimens and the identification ... -
BMI and BMI SDS in childhood: annual increments and conditional change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Background: Early detection of abnormal weight gain in childhood may be important for preventive purposes. It is still debated which annual changes in BMI should warrant attention. Aim: To analyse 1-year increments of Body ... -
Body mass index and childhood symptoms of depression, anxiety, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder: A within-family Mendelian randomization study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background: Higher BMI in childhood is associated with emotional and behavioural problems, but these associations may not be causal. Results of previous genetic studies imply causal effects but may reflect influence of ... -
Bone mineral density and vitamin D in paediatric intestinal failure patients receiving home parenteral nutrition
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background & aims Patients with intestinal failure (IF) are dependent on long-term home parenteral nutrition (HPN) to ensure growth and development. The primary aim of the present study was to assess bone mineral density ... -
Bones, blood and steel: How bioelectrical impedance analysis is affected by hip fracture and surgical implants
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Introduction: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is in widespread use, but there is uncertainty about its validity in patients with metal implants or after acute hip fracture and surgery. We aimed to investigate the ... -
Boosting of cross-reactive and protection-associated T cells in children after live attenuated influenza vaccination
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-05)Background. Live attenuated influenza vaccines (LAIVs) stimulate a multifaceted immune response including cellular immunity, which may provide protection against newly emerging strains. This study shows proof of concept ... -
Boosting Schizophrenia Genetics by Utilizing Genetic Overlap With Brain Morphology
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Schizophrenia is a complex polygenic disorder with subtle, distributed abnormalities in brain morphology. There are indications of shared genetic architecture between schizophrenia and brain measures despite ... -
Borderline values of troponin-T and high sensitivityC-reactive protein did not predict 2-year mortality inTnTpositive chest-pain patients, whereas brain natriureticpeptide did
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-04-08)Background: Troponin-T (TnT), high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), and Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) have been shown to be independent prognostic indicators of total and cardiac death during short- and long-term ... -
Bounding the average causal effect in Mendelian randomisation studies with multiple proposed instruments: An application to prenatal alcohol exposure and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background As large-scale observational data become more available, caution regarding causal assumptions remains critically important. This may be especially true for Mendelian randomisation (MR), an increasingly popular ... -
The brain and brown fat
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-06-10)Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a specialized organ responsible for thermogenesis, a process required for maintaining body temperature. BAT is regulated by the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), which activates lipolysis and ... -
‘Brain fog’, guilt, and gratitude: experiences of symptoms and life changes in older survivors 6 months after hospitalisation for COVID-19
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Purpose Several of those who have been infected with COVID-19 suffer from the post-COVID-19 condition months after the acute infection. Little is known about how older survivors have experienced the consequences and how ... -
