- Living with a child with a disability is often perceived as a permanent stressor to the family and it affects all aspects of family life including the well-being of family members. Since little is known about parenting teenage daughters diagnosed with ADHD, the aim of the study was to gain a deeper understanding of the main problem involved using a grounded theory approach. Interviews were carried out with 12 parents, 11 mothers and 1 father, of teenage daughters diagnosed with ADHD. The parents' situation was conceptualized as living at the edge of one's capability with the properties having the sole parental responsibility, fighting for professional support, being on duty around the clock and trying to solve family conflicts. Parents described how their health was negatively affected by their life situation.

- The purpose of the study was to analyse how cross-border commuting differed from intranational commuting in Sweden, and how cross-border mobilities affected spatial integration. The authors analysed patterns and spatial flows of cross-border commuting by comparing them with characteristics of intranational commuting. In the article, they explore the assumption that the border constitutes an ‘engine’ for work-related mobility, which affects processes of spatial integration in cross-border areas. The empirical material comprised data from surveys of commuting from the Swedish county of Värmland to Norway and commuting within Värmland. The findings showed that cross-border commuting shared common features with intranational commuting, including how the frequency of commuting was dependent on distance. The motives for commuting differed, and the reasons for working in Norway were economic rather than professional. In terms of spatial integration, cross-border commuting was mainly one-directional, from Sweden to Norway, while leisure mobility and migration tended to be in the opposite direction. The authors conclude that the border region is characterised by integration through specialisation, which involves a permanent state of ‘transient’ mobility. Thus, a win-win situation can be distinguished, in which the border serves as a resource and an ‘engine’ for cross-border integration, mobility and economic activities.

Angiogenesis inhibitor TNP-470 augments the effect of repeated arterial ischemia on growth but does not affect take in a rat liver tumor model

- Transient hepatic arterial occlusion causes necrosis in solid hepatic tumors in the rat, but regrowth of tumor cells and capillaries takes place from the tumor periphery. It was therefore considered of interest to combine this treatment with the angiogenesis inhibitor TNP-470 (therapeutic model). Wistar rats with a dimethylhydrazine-induced adenocarcinoma implanted into the liver received one of the following treatments: TNP-470 + transient hepatic ischemia, transient hepatic ischemia alone, TNP-470 alone or sham solution alone. Rats were sacrificed one week after the start of treatment. In addition, we investigated if TNP-470 decreases the risk of tumor take in the liver after intraportal injection of viable tumor cells (adjuvant study). Transient hepatic ischemia combined with TNP-470 gave a smaller increase in tumor volume than transient hepatic ischemia (p < 0.01), TNP-470 (p < 0.001) alone or no treatment (p < 0.001). Transient hepatic ischemia or TNP-470 caused a significant suppression of tumor growth when compared to controls (p < 0.01 in both cases). In the adjuvant study, TNP-470 caused retardation of tumor growth (p < 0.01 as compared to controls) but did not affect tumor number. It is concluded that TNP-470 suppressed tumor growth, both alone and in combination with transient hepatic ischemia, but did not affect take of tumor.

Interstitial laser thermotherapy in pig liver : Effect of inflow occlusion on extent of necrosis and ultrasound image

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background/Aims: The aim was to investigate the effect of blood inflow occlusion on lesion size and ultrasonographic findings during interstitial laser thermotherapy of normal liver. Methodology: Pigs were treated with or without hepatic inflow occlusion at a laser power of 3 W or without inflow occlusion at 5 W (target temperature 43°C). The thermotherapy system consisted of an Nd:YAG laser and a temperature feedback circuit. Ultrasonography was performed immediately after treatment. Lesion size was determined using light microscopy including immunohistochemistry with bromodeoxyuridine. Results: Hyperechoic ultrasonographic changes were observed after treatment with inflow occlusion or when there was carbonization. If carbonization did not occur, unoccluded blood flow was associated with hypoechoic lesions. Following inflow occlusion, maximum lesion width 2 and 6 days after thermotherapy averaged 21.9 ± 1.3 and 20.2 ± 0.8 (means ± SEM) mm, respectively. This was larger than the corresponding values of 10.8 ± 0.8 and 11.1 ± 2.0 observed after treatment without inflow occlusion at 3 W (p < 0.01). Increase in laser power from 3 to 5 W in experiments without inflow occlusion produced early carbonization and a slight increase in lesion size that did not match that produced by inflow occlusion. Ultrasound gave a correct prediction of necrosis size after treatment with inflow occlusion but overestimated the necrosis when inflow occlusion was not used. Ultrasound was furthermore unable to predict size of necrosis in individual experiments. Conclusion: Blood flow has a major influence on lesion size in interstitial laser thermotherapy of the liver and affects ultrasonographic images. Also, it appears that intraoperative ultrasonography cannot monitor lesion size with an accuracy that is sufficient for clinical use.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Objective: To examine the effect of different temperatures and exposure times in interstitial laser thermotherapy. Design: Controlled laboratory study. Setting: University hospital, Sweden. Material: 48 male Wistar FU rats with dimethylhydrazine-induced adenocarcinoma transplanted into the liver. Intervention: Treatment was given with an Nd:YAG laser and a feedback system for temperature regulation. Light was delivered into the centre of the turnout and the feedback thermistor probe was placed 3 mm from the tumour margin. Rats were treated at steady-state temperatures at the feedback thermistor of 43, 46, or 50°C for 30 minutes, and at a steady-state temperature of 46°C at the feedback thermistor also for 10 and 20 minutes. Main outcome measurement: Tumour control as assessed 6 days after treatment using light microscopical examination including immunohistochemical determination of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation into DNA as a measure of cell viability. Results: Complete tumour necrosis was achieved in all rats treated for 30 minutes, in 6/8 rats treated for 10 minutes and in 6/8 rats treated for 20 minutes at 46°C. During steady-state thermotherapy, temperatures at the tumour margin were about 11°higher than at the feedback thermistor (range 54-61°C). The surrounding liver tissue also became necrotic so that the total necrosis volume exceeded the pretreatment tumour volume. Conclusion: Interstitial laser thermotherapy at temperatures ranging from 54-61°C at the tumour margin ensures total necrosis of a transplanted rat liver carcinoma provided that treatment is given for 30 minutes.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A gap exists between guidelines and real-world clinical practice for the management and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although this has narrowed in the last decade, there is room for improvement in detection rates, treatment choices and disease monitoring. In practical terms, primary care practitioners need to become aware of the huge impact of COPD on patients, have non-judgemental views of smoking and of COPD as a chronic disease, use a holistic consultation approach and actively motivate patients to adhere to treatment.This article is based on discussions at a virtual meeting of leading Nordic experts in COPD (the authors) who were developing an educational programme for COPD primary care in the Nordic region. The article aims to describe the diagnosis and lifelong management cycle of COPD, with a strong focus on providing a hands-on, practical approach for medical professionals to optimise patient outcomes in COPD primary care.
