  • The ethical dilemma ofgranulocyte transfusions
  • 2020

    • Granulocyte transfusions have been administered to patients with life-threatening infections for more than five decades. However, to what extent this should be the case is far from established. On the one hand, the clinical effects of these transfusions are difficult to prove in clinical studies, and the donors of granulocytes may be exposed to certain risks. On the other hand, clinical experience seems to support the idea that granulocyte transfusions do play an important role for severely ill patients, and the donors are primarily motivated by altruistic reasons. In this paper, we first discuss the ethical issues that arise from the fact that there is a conflict between clinical experience and the results from the attempts to perform randomized control trials, and second, the risk/benefit assessment that has to be made between two different parties, namely the recipient and the donor of granulocyte transfusions.

  • An experimental study of methods for the analysis of variance components in the inference of laboratory information
  • 2020

    • Measurement uncertainty (MU) can be estimated and calculated by different procedures, representing different aspects and intended use. It is appropriate to distinguish between uncertainty determined under repeatability and reproducibility conditions, and to distinguish causes of variation using analysis of variance components. The intra-laboratory MU is frequently determined by repeated measurements of control material(s) of one or several concentrations during a prolonged period of time. We demonstrate, based on experimental results, how such results can be used to identify the repeatability, pure reproducibility and intra-laboratory variance as the sum of the two. Native patient material was used to establish repeatability using the Dahlberg formula for random differences between measurements and an expanded Dahlberg formula if a non-random difference, e.g. bias, was expected. Repeatability and reproducibility have different clinical relevance in intensive care compared to monitoring treatment of chronic diseases, comparison with reference intervals or screening.

  • God prognos för unga vuxna med mycket låg födelsevikt [Follow-up study of very low birthweight children in Sweden at the age of 27-28]
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Läkartidningen. - Stockholm, Sweden : Sveriges Läkarförbund. - 0023-7205 .- 1652-7518. ; 117
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Studies show that very low birthweight can be an important risk factor for mental problems, disturbed fertility and neuroendocrine dysregulation. In a regional long-term study 56 of 86 adult individuals 27 to 28 years of age with a very low birthweight were compared with normal birthweight controls. Analyses of self-reported mental health, socio-demographic factors, sex hormone levels, and hair cortisol levels showed no significant differences between the groups. However, in order to analyse subgroups with different risk factors from the newborn period or children with a variety of social background factors, larger patient groups are needed.

  • Self-reported mental health and cortisol activity at 27-28 years of age in individuals born with very low birthweight
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Acta Paediatrica. - : Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Inc.. - 0803-5253 .- 1651-2227. ; 109:5, s. 948-958

    • AimTo assess mental health outcomes of very low birthweight (VLBW, <1500 g) subjects to adulthood and to examine salivary cortisol and hair cortisol levels and their relation to birth characteristics and mental health.MethodsA Swedish regional cohort of 56 VLBW subjects and 55 full‐term controls were assessed at the ages 27‐28 with adult self‐reported scales and the mean of 2 days diurnal salivary cortisol and hair cortisol. The cohorts had been assessed at 15 years of age with youth self‐reported scales.ResultsThere were no differences between the groups in youth self‐reported scales and adult self‐reported scores. The 24 participating VLBW girls scored lower on youth self‐reported scales externalising and total problem scores than the control girls. In adulthood, the 21 participating VLBW women had significantly higher morning concentrations of salivary cortisol than control women, P = .014. No significant associations were found between cortisol concentrations and adult self‐reported scales internalising, externalising and total scores.ConclusionSelf‐reported mental health in VLBW subjects was comparable with normal birthweight controls indicating a satisfying transition from adolescence to adulthood. VLBW females had higher morning salivary cortisol concentrations, suggesting a gender difference. We found no correlations between cortisol and mental health.

  • Hair cortisol in horses (Equus caballus) in relation to management regimes, personality and breed
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Journal of Veterinary Behavior. - : Elsevier. - 1558-7878. ; 37
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Hair cortisol is a promising biomarker to measure long-term stress since cortisol is incorporated into the hair shaft as it grows. However, few studies have previously assessed hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in horses. In this study, HCC was evaluated in both mane hair from the neck and body hair from the withers in 153 horses of different breeds, from seven different stables with three different management regimes (Free-roaming horses, Riding school horses, Trotter horses). In addition, 4 hours of behavioral observations were performed at each stable, and for 43 of the horses, a personality survey was completed. Mane and withers HCC correlated moderately, but significantly (rs=0.48, p<0.001). Differences between the stables were found for both mane and withers hair (both p<0.01) and the stable with lowest HCC also showed highest occurrences of positive social and resting behaviors (both p<0.01). There were no significant differences in HCC between the management regimes even though Free-roaming horses showed less negative social behavior compared to Riding school horses (p=0.041) and Trotter horses (p=0.055). The personality traits Dominance, Anxiousness, and Excitability revealed weak to moderate correlations with mane HCC (rs=-0.34, p=0.027; rs=-0.46, p=0.002; rs=-0.31, p=0.043 respectively) which might suggest that personality could also be related to long-term stress levels in horses.
