- We describe a method whereby microscale spatial information such as the relative positions of biomolecules on a surface can be transferred to a sequence-based format and reconstructed into images without conventional optics. Barcoded DNA “polymerase colony” (polony) amplification techniques enable one to distinguish specific locations of a surface by their sequence. Image formation is based on pairwise fusion of uniquely tagged and spatially adjacent polonies. The network of polonies connected by shared borders forms a graph whose topology can be reconstructed from pairs of barcodes fused during a polony cross-linking phase, the sequences of which are determined by recovery from the surface and next-generation (next-gen) sequencing. We developed a mathematical and computational framework for this principle called polony adjacency reconstruction for spatial inference and topology and show that Euclidean spatial data may be stored and transmitted in the form of graph topology. Images are formed by transferring molecular information from a surface of interest, which we demonstrated in silico by reconstructing images formed from stochastic transfer of hypothetical molecular markers. The theory developed here could serve as a basis for an automated, multiplexable, and potentially superresolution imaging method based purely on molecular information.

Mood Regulation Focused CBT Based on Memory Reconsolidation, Reduced Suicidal Ideation and Depression in Youth in a Randomised Controlled Study
- 2018
-
In: Int J Environ Res Public Health. - : MDPI AG. - 1660-4601. ; 15:5
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Suicide attempts and suicidal ideation in adolescence are considered to be related to suicide and psychiatric adversity later in life. Secondary prevention by improving the treatment of suicidal youth is a distinct possibility. In this study, treatment with a systematised mood-regulation focused cognitive behavioural therapy (MR-CBT) (n = 15) was compared with treatment as usual (TAU) (n = 12) in a group of depressed adolescents in a clinical setting. MR-CBT focuses on mood regulation by means of counter conditioning with memory reconsolidation being the proposed mechanism of change. Subjects practice keeping emotionally positive memories to diminish the emotional impact of negative memories. Symptoms of depression were tested with a short version of the Mood and Feelings Questionnaire (SMFQ), and wellbeing with the World Health Organization 5 Wellbeing Index (WHO-5). Suicidal events were rated according to the clinical interview Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS). Suicidal events at the end of treatment were significantly reduced in the MR-CBT group, but not in the TAU group. Depression and wellbeing improved significantly in both treatment groups. While far from conclusive, the results are encouraging enough to suggest that further studies should be undertaken to examine whether psychotherapy focusing on mood regulation for young individuals at risk might enhance secondary prevention of suicide.

The impact of active intervention on the spread of penicillin-resistant streptococcus pneumoniae in Swedish day-care centres
- 2004
-
In: Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1651-1980 .- 0036-5548. ; 36:9, s. 629-635

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Policies for handling cases of penicillin-non-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae (PNSP) in day-care groups vary between different counties in Sweden. The aim of this study was to evaluate the epidemiological effect of excluding PNSP-carriers from children's day-care centres (DCC). We followed the incidence in 14 DCC groups with ongoing PNSP-spread, by repeated group screens until no further cases could be identified. All identified carriers were excluded from DCC attendance in study area A (Skane region) while they remained in the group in study area B (Goteborg and Orebro), according to local policies. The intervention effect was evaluated by comparing the number of additional cases after the baseline screen (start of the intervention period) between the 2 study areas. All PNSP-isolates were characterized by resistance pattern, serotype and pulse-field gel electrophoresis. The relative risk for children in DCCs without active intervention was 6.4 (95% CI: 2.0-20.7). Each prevented case in area A can be estimated to have demanded the exclusion of 2 other children from day care for approximately 4 weeks each. The total cost-benefit outcome of this action has to be seen in the light of the local situation with regard to the population prevalence and the distribution of other risk factors.

Prognostic nomogram to predict progression-free survival in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer
- 2011
-
In: British Journal of Cancer. - : Cancer Research UK. - 0007-0920 .- 1532-1827. ; 105:8, s. 1144-1150

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- BACKGROUND: Patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer are a heterogeneous group, and it is not possible to accurately predict the progression-free survival (PFS) in these patients. We developed and validated a nomogram to help improve prediction of PFS in patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. METHODS: The nomogram was developed in a training cohort (n = 955) from the CALYPSO trial and validated in the AGO-OVAR 2.5 Study (n = 340). The proportional-hazards model (nomogram) was based on pre-treatment characteristics. RESULTS: The nomogram had a concordance index (C-index) of 0.645. Significant predictors were tumour size platinum-chemotherapy-free interval, CA-125, number of organ metastatic sites and white blood count. When the nomogram was applied without CA-125 (CA-125 was not available in validation cohort), the C-indices were 0.624 (training) and 0.594 (validation). When classification was based only on the platinum-chemotherapy-free interval, the indices were 0.571 (training) and 0.560 (validation). The calibration plot in the validation cohort based on four predictors (without CA-125) suggested good agreement between actual and nomogram-predicted 12-month PFS probabilities. CONCLUSION: This nomogram, using five pre-treatment characteristics, improves prediction of PFS in patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer having platinum-based chemotherapy. It will be useful for the design and stratification of patients in clinical trials and also for counselling patients.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Sputtered Ni and Ti layers were investigated as a diffusion barrier to substitute electroplated Ni between Ti-Si-C and Ti-Si-C-Ag nanocomposite coatings and Cu or CuSn substrates. Samples were subjected to thermal annealing studies by exposure to 400 degrees C for 11 h. Dense diffusion barrier and coating hindered Cu from diffusing to the surface. This condition was achieved for electroplated Ni in combination with magnetron-sputtered Ti-Si-C and Ti-Si-C-Ag layers deposited at 230 degrees C and 300 degrees C. and sputtered Ti or Ni layers in combination with Ti-Si-C-Ag deposited at 300 degrees C.

Randomized study on adjuvant chemotherapy in stage I high-risk ovarian cancer with evaluation of DNA-ploidy as prognostic instrument
- 2000

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- PURPOSE: Adjuvant chemotherapy versus observation and chemotherapy at progression was evaluated in 162 patients in a prospective randomized multicenter study. We also evaluated DNA-measurements as an additional prognostic factor.PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients received adjuvant carboplatin AUC 7 every 28 days for six courses (n = 81) or no adjuvant treatment (n = 81). Eligibility included surgically staged and treated patients with FIGO stage I disease, grade 1 aneuploid or grade 2 or 3 non-clear cell carcinomas or clear cell carcinomas. Disease-free (DFS) and disease-specific (DSS) survival were end-points.RESULTS: Median follow-up time was 46 months and progression was observed in 20 patients in the treatment group and 19 in the control group. Estimated five-year DFS and DSS were 70% and 86% in the treatment group and 71% and 85% in the control group. The hazard ratio was 0.98 (95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.52-1.83) regarding DFS and 0.94 (95% CI: 0.37-2.36) regarding DSS. No significant differences in DFS or DSS could be seen when the log-rank test was stratified for prognostic variables. Therefore, data from both groups were pooled for the analysis of prognostic factors. DNA-ploidy (P = 0.003), extracapsular growth (P = 0.005), tumor rupture (P = 0.04), and WHO histologic grade (P = 0.04) were significant independent prognostic factors for DFS with P < 0.0001 for the model in the multivariate Cox analysis. FIGO substage (P = 0.01), DNA ploidy (P < 0.05), and histologic grade (P = 0.05) were prognostic for DSS with a P-value for the model < 0.0001.CONCLUSIONS: Due to the small number of patients the study was inconclusive as regards the question of adjuvant chemotherapy. The survival curves were superimposable, but with wide confidence intervals. DNA-ploidy adds objective independent prognostic information regarding both DFS and DSS in early ovarian cancer.
