  • The double electrostatic ion ring experiment : A unique cryogenic electrostatic storage ring for merged ion-beams studies
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: Review of Scientific Instruments. - : AIP Publishing. - 0034-6748 .- 1089-7623. ; 82:6, s. 065112-
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We describe the design of a novel type of storage device currently under construction at Stockholm University, Sweden, using purely electrostatic focussing and deflection elements, in which ion beams of opposite charges are confined under extreme high vacuum cryogenic conditions in separate rings and merged over a common straight section. The construction of this double electrostatic ion ring experiment uniquely allows for studies of interactions between cations and anions at low and well-defined internal temperatures and centre-of-mass collision energies down to about 10 K and 10 meV, respectively. Position sensitive multi-hit detector systems have been extensively tested and proven to work in cryogenic environments and these will be used to measure correlations between reaction products in, for example, electron-transfer processes. The technical advantages of using purely electrostatic ion storage devices over magnetic ones are many, but the most relevant are: electrostatic elements which are more compact and easier to construct; remanent fields, hysteresis, and eddy-currents, which are of concern in magnetic devices, are no longer relevant; and electrical fields required to control the orbit of the ions are not only much easier to create and control than the corresponding magnetic fields, they also set no upper mass limit on the ions that can be stored. These technical differences are a boon to new areas of fundamental experimental research, not only in atomic and molecular physics but also in the boundaries of these fields with chemistry and biology. For examples, studies of interactions with internally cold molecular ions will be particular useful for applications in astrophysics, while studies of solvated ionic clusters will be of relevance to aeronomy and biology.

  • Sorting breast cancer cells based on deformability
  • 2015
  • Ingår i: MicroTAS 2015 - 19th International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences. - 9780979806483 ; , s. 364-366
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Due to their direct coupling to the physiology of the cells, the physical properties are especially attractive as markers for sorting and characterization of cancer cells. Where molecular surface markers are lacking, the physical properties can instead serve as inherent markers for separation. This is especially interesting for cancer cells where there are indications that soft cells are more metastatic than hard cells. Our work is expected to provide a deeper understanding of deformability based sorting based on deterministic lateral displacement (DLD). This will subsequently be used to optimize DLD devices for characterization and fractionation of cancer cells into subpopulations of different mechanical properties. Our aim is to develop a device to help oncologists gain more accurate prognoses and better monitoring of the effect of treatment.

  • Surface based fluidics for particle sorting
  • 2015
  • Ingår i: MicroTAS 2015 - 19th International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences. - 9780979806483 ; , s. 2136-2137
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We have created devices that are extremely simple to fabricate, function without pumps, are reusable and capable of dealing with very large differences in particle sizes without clogging. Our new approach to microfluidic particle sorting is precise enough for applications in blood fractionation, cancer cell sorting, parasite detection and sample decomplexing in general. We achieve this using Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD) in an open channel where particles flow across a patterned surface under the impetus of capillary forces alone.

  • Tuberculosis incidence in foreign-born people residing in European countries in 2020
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Eurosurveillance. - : European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC). - 1025-496X .- 1560-7917. ; 28:42
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: European-specific policies for tuberculosis (TB) elimination require identification of key populations that benefit from TB screening.Aim: We aimed to identify groups of foreign-born individuals residing in European countries that benefit most from targeted TB prevention screening.Methods: The Tuberculosis Network European Trials group collected, by cross-sectional survey, numbers of foreign-born TB patients residing in European Union (EU) countries, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and the United Kingdom (UK) in 2020 from the 10 highest ranked countries of origin in terms of TB cases in each country of residence. Tuberculosis incidence rates (IRs) in countries of residence were compared with countries of origin.Results: Data on 9,116 foreign-born TB patients in 30 countries of residence were collected. Main countries of origin were Eritrea, India, Pakistan, Morocco, Romania and Somalia. Tuberculosis IRs were highest in patients of Eritrean and Somali origin in Greece and Malta (both > 1,000/100,000) and lowest among Ukrainian patients in Poland (3.6/100,000). They were mainly lower in countries of residence than countries of origin. However, IRs among Eritreans and Somalis in Greece and Malta were five times higher than in Eritrea and Somalia. Similarly, IRs among Eritreans in Germany, the Netherlands and the UK were four times higher than in Eritrea.Conclusions: Country of origin TB IR is an insufficient indicator when targeting foreign-born populations for active case finding or TB prevention policies in the countries covered here. Elimination strategies should be informed by regularly collected country-specific data to address rapidly changing epidemiology and associated risks.

  • Novel loci for childhood body mass index and shared heritability with adult cardiometabolic traits.
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: PLoS genetics. - : Public Library of Science (PLoS). - 1553-7404. ; 16:10
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The genetic background of childhood body mass index (BMI), and the extent to which the well-known associations of childhood BMI with adult diseases are explained by shared genetic factors, are largely unknown. We performed a genome-wide association study meta-analysis of BMI in 61,111 children aged between 2 and 10 years. Twenty-five independent loci reached genome-wide significance in the combined discovery and replication analyses. Two of these, located near NEDD4L and SLC45A3, have not previously been reported in relation to either childhood or adult BMI. Positive genetic correlations of childhood BMI with birth weight and adult BMI, waist-to-hip ratio, diastolic blood pressure and type 2 diabetes were detected (Rg ranging from 0.11 to 0.76, P-values <0.002). A negative genetic correlation of childhood BMI with age at menarche was observed. Our results suggest that the biological processes underlying childhood BMI largely, but not completely, overlap with those underlying adult BMI. The well-known observational associations of BMI in childhood with cardio-metabolic diseases in adulthood may reflect partial genetic overlap, but in light of previous evidence, it is also likely that they are explained through phenotypic continuity of BMI from childhood into adulthood.

  • Assessment of Chemotherapeutic Drug Sensitivity in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Using Primary Cultures of Tumour Cells from Patients
  • Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Sensitivity of epithelial ovarian cancer to chemotherapeutic drugs relevant in treatment of this cancer type was analysed in 125 tumour samples from 112 patients using a short-term primary culture assay based on the concept of total cell kill. Sensitivity was related to histopathological subtypes, treatment status and clinical tumour response. For cisplatin, doxorubicin, 5-FU, cyclophosphamide and topotecan, seropapillary high grade and clear cell ovarian cancer were the most sensitive subtypes and the mucinous tumours the most resistant subtype, whereas endometrioid tumours and the seropapillary low grade/borderline tumours showed intermediate sensitivity. In contrast, docetaxel showed the opposite pattern of activity. Samples from patients previously treated with chemotherapy tended, for the majority of drugs, to be slightly more resistant than samples from treatment naïve patients. The activity of cisplatin correlated strongly with that of the other drugs with the exception of docetaxel, implicating non-cross resistance between these key drugs in ovarian cancer. Tumour samples from two sites in the same patient at the same occasion showed similar and samples taken at different occasions different cisplatin sensitivity, which may implicate tumour clonal selection over time. At group level, samples from patients clinically responding to treatment were more sensitive to most drugs than samples from non-responding patients. At the individual patient level, optimized analyses of drug sensitivity in vitro compared with clinical response showed sensitivities and specificities in the 90 – 100% and 54 – 83% ranges, respectively. In conclusion, ovarian cancer subtypes exhibit different chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity in vitro, which needs consideration in treatment decisions for this disease. Furthermore, in vitro assessment of ovarian cancer tumour cell chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity provides clinically relevant information that could be useful in efforts to optimize treatment in individual patients with this disease.

  • Chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity of primary cultures of epithelial ovarian cancer cells from patients in relation to tumour characteristics and therapeutic outcome
  • 2014
  • Ingår i: Acta Oncologica. - : Informa Healthcare. - 0284-186X .- 1651-226X. ; 53:2, s. 242-250
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background. A number of chemotherapeutic drugs are active in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) but so far choice of drugs for treatment is mostly empirically based. Testing of drug activity in tumour cells from patients might provide a rationale for a more individualised approach for drug selection. Material and methods. Sensitivity of EOC to chemotherapeutic drugs was analysed in 125 tumour samples from 112 patients using a short-term primary culture assay based on the concept of total cell kill. Sensitivity was related to tumour histology, treatment status and clinical tumour response. Results. For most EOC standard drugs serous high grade and clear cell EOC were the most sensitive subtypes and the mucinous tumours the most resistant subtype. Docetaxel, however, tended to show the opposite pattern. Samples from previously treated patients tended to be more resistant than those from treatment naive patients. The activity of cisplatin correlated with that of other drugs with the exception of docetaxel. Tumour samples from two sites in the same patient at the same occasion showed similar cisplatin sensitivity in contrast to samples taken at different occasions. Samples from patients responding in the clinic to treatment were more sensitive to most drugs than samples from non-responding patients. At the individual patient level, drug sensitivity in vitro compared with clinical response showed sensitivities and specificities in the 83-100% and 55-83% ranges, respectively. Conclusions. Assessment of EOC tumour cell drug sensitivity in vitro provides clinically relevant and potentially useful information for the optimisation of drug treatment.

  • Effects of plasmapheresis on the plasma concentration of proteins used to monitor the disease process in multiple myeloma
  • 1988
  • Ingår i: Acta Medica Scandinavica. - : Wiley. - 0001-6101. ; 223:3, s. 263-267
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We studied the influence of plasmapheresis on the plasma concentrations of proteins (IgG, IgA, beta 2-microglobulin) used for estimation of tumour cell mass in patients with multiple myeloma. Simultaneously, the effects of plasmapheresis on plasma concentrations of proteins (CRP, alpha 1-antitrypsin, haptoglobin) used for the assessment of inflammatory processes were studied. Also, changes in the plasma concentration of protein HC, a recently described protein occurring both as a free protein and as an IgA complex, were studied. The influence of plasmapheresis varied for the different proteins. The plasma levels of IgG, IgA, CRP, alpha 1-antitrypsin, and haptoglobin decreased during plasmapheresis. The simultaneous reduction of the level of protein HC was smaller than that of IgG, IgA and haptoglobin. The plasma concentration of beta 2-microglobulin did not decrease during plasmapheresis. The recovery rates of the proteins were found to be approximately inversely related to their molecular weights.

  • Cerebellar mutism syndrome in children with brain tumours of the posterior fossa
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: BMC Cancer. - : BIOMED CENTRAL LTD. - 1471-2407. ; 17
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Central nervous system tumours constitute 25% of all childhood cancers; more than half are located in the posterior fossa and surgery is usually part of therapy. One of the most disabling late effects of posterior fossa tumour surgery is the cerebellar mutism syndrome (CMS) which has been reported in up to 39% of the patients but the exact incidence is uncertain since milder cases may be unrecognized. Recovery is usually incomplete. Reported risk factors are tumour type, midline location and brainstem involvement, but the exact aetiology, surgical and other risk factors, the clinical course and strategies for prevention and treatment are yet to be determined.Methods: This observational, prospective, multicentre study will include 500 children with posterior fossa tumours. It opened late 2014 with participation from 20 Nordic and Baltic centres. From 2016, five British centres and four Dutch centres will join with a total annual accrual of 130 patients. Three other major European centres are invited to join from 2016/17. Follow-up will run for 12 months after inclusion of the last patient. All patients are treated according to local practice. Clinical data are collected through standardized online registration at pre-determined time points pre- and postoperatively. Neurological status and speech functions are examined pre- operatively and postoperatively at 1-4 weeks, 2 and 12 months. Pre- and postoperative speech samples are recorded and analysed. Imaging will be reviewed centrally. Pathology is classified according to the 2007 WHO system. Germline DNA will be collected from all patients for associations between CMS characteristics and host genome variants including pathway profiles.Discussion: Through prospective and detailed collection of information on 1) differences in incidence and clinical course of CMS for different patient and tumour characteristics, 2) standardized surgical data and their association with CMS, 3) diversities and results of other therapeutic interventions, and 4) the role of host genome variants, we aim to achieve a better understanding of risk factors for and the clinical course of CMS - with the ultimate goal of defining strategies for prevention and treatment of this severely disabling condition.
