Proud to present our new publication, fresh off the print at #EHJ ⁦⁦@ehj_ed⁩ and highlighted in the KI news ⁦⁦@MMK_research⁩ 🥳 Mapping of atherosclerotic plaque cells may predict future risk of stroke or heart attack news.ki.se/mapping-of-athero…

Mapping of atherosclerotic plaque cells may predict future risk of stroke or heart attack

In a new study published in the European Heart Journal, researchers at Karolinska Institutet show that genetic traits influence the cellular composition of atherosclerotic plaques, which over time...

Simulation-based training for groin hernia repair in Sierra Leone. Registered at #ISRCTN by @jennyloefgren @MMK_research @karolinskainst isrctn.com/ISRCTN14168492 #clinicaltrials
The surgical human resource is a limiting factor in meeting the demands for surgical services in low-income settings. Groin hernia represents a common surgical condition and its repair is among the most commonly performed surgical procedures worldwide. Still, the number of procedures performed needs to increase drastically in order to meet the need for this procedure. In this study, trainees enrolled in the CapaCare surgical training program in Sierra Leone will participate in a simulation-based course in inguinal hernia repair. The aim of the study is to investigate if the learning curve to learn how to perform inguinal hernia repair on patients is affected as a result of first learning how to perform this procedure on 3D models.

Ny studie av Gisela Barbany och Fatemah Rezayee mfl vid grp klinisk genetik visar att helgenomsekvensering kan upptäcka kliniskt relevanta genomiska avvikelser vid akut lymfatisk leukemi hos barn

30 Aug 2023
Barn som drabbats av leukemi kan tack vare helgenomsekvensering få mer individanpassad cancerbehandling. Ny information gör att såväl över- som underbehandling kan undvikas. Nu hoppas forskarna att metoden på sikt kan fasa ut dagens diagnosmetoder. barncancerfonden.se/press/he…
