Introduction: Back pain is common in idiopathic scoliosis. The aim of this study was to study known genetic variants associated with pain in individuals with idiopathic scoliosis.
Methods: We included 1442 individuals with juvenile or adolescent idiopathic scoliosis from Sweden and Denmark.
Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the impact of alcohol control policies on health outcomes related to alcohol in Nordic countries from 1990 to 2019.
- More restrictive alcohol policies were generally linked to lower levels of alcohol-attributed harm, especially in Sweden and Norway, while Denmark, with the least restrictive policies, had higher harm levels.
- Findings suggest that while stricter policies can reduce alcohol-related disease burdens, other factors like sex and specific locations also play crucial roles, indicating that policy effectiveness is context-dependent.
Article Synopsis
- Heparin is a key polysaccharide that regulates cellular activities by interacting with proteins like growth factors and cytokines, but studying its effects on larger scales is challenging with traditional molecular dynamics.
- Coarse-grained models simplify these systems by reducing complexity, allowing for better exploration of protein/heparin interactions over extended time frames and larger sizes.
- A new coarse-grained model has been developed and validated with UNRES software, showing strong alignment with experimental results, making it suitable for investigating complex biological processes involving heparin.
Individuals with chronic illnesses and those infected with SARS-CoV-2 often face stigma, shame, and psychological distress related to their conditions. Higher psychological flexibility and self-compassion are often associated with less stigma and shame. Examining and comparing these experiences between people with chronic illness and people who have recovered from SARS-CoV-2 can provide valuable insights into the shared and unique challenges they encounter.

In this study, we examined the association between exposure to parental substance use disorder (SUD) during childhood, and adolescence and offspring psychiatric conditions in young adulthood.
Method: This was a register-based cohort study comprising 562,095 males and 531,130 females born between 1981 and 1990 in Sweden.
