ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Patients with uncharacteristic inflammatory symptoms such as long-standing fatigue or pain, or a prolonged fever, constitute a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. The aim of the present study was to determine if an extended immunophenotyping of lymphocytes and monocytes including activation markers can define disease-specific patterns, and thus provide valuable diagnostic i
Popular Abstract in Swedish Urinvägsinfektioner (UVI) är en av våra vanligaste infektionssjukdomar och orsakas oftast av bakterien Escherichia coli (E. coli). Infektionernas svårighetsgrad varierar, beroende på samspelet mellan bakterie och värd. Njurbäckeninflammation kan orsaka allvarliga störningar av njurfunktionen och kan till och med vara livshotande. Blåskatarr är en mindre allvarlig sjukdoUrinary tract infections (UTI) are among the most common bacterial infections in humans. Symptomatic UTIs may be acute, recurrent or chronic but the most frequent form of UTI is asymptomatic bacteruria (ABU). In ABU, the mucosa remains inert, despite the presence of large bacterial numbers in urine. The difference in disease severity reflects the virulence of the infecting strain and the propensit
Capsazepine is known as a transient receptor potential channel vanilloid subfamily 1 (TRPV1) antagonist that inhibits bronchoconstriction evoked in animals by TRPV1 agonists. In this study, effects of capsazepine and chemically related analogues, so called capsazepinoids, were examined in vitro on contractile effects in human small airway preparations. Repeated cycles with 1 h of LTD4-free physiol
BACKGROUND: An increasing number of monogenic conditions underlying stroke are being identified. We explored the possibilities of increasing the diagnostic yield of monogenic stroke in a population under 56 years of age. METHODS: Fifty probands ≤55 years at their first stroke episode were characterized clinically and investigated by whole genome sequencing. Probands had one or more of: (1) one or
PURPOSE: Clinical relapse is the major threat for patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) undergoing hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). Early detection of measurable residual disease (MRD) would enable preemptive treatment and potentially reduced relapse risk.METHODSPatients with MDS planned for HSCT were enrolled in a prospective, observational study evaluating the association b
The aim of this thesis is to examine archival clerks within the City of Malmö in regards to their position within their organisations and how their practical work coincide with the policy documents. The thesis also examines the archival clerks own thoughts on their work. In a Swedish context of the public sector archival clerks handle the practical work concerning the archive in their workplace. T
This master thesis contributed to a project financed by the Swedish Energy Agency and managed by the housing company Eksta AB in collaboration with the consulting Company WSP. The main aim of this master thesis was to perform a theoretical optimization on the usage of own used solar electricity by transferring the surplus PV between buildings in a demonstration area in a DC-microgrid. To achieve th
This thesis orbits around the changes in the Swedish abortion laws during the last century, and the relation to religion. The aim is to make visible the values enshrined in the first abortion law, and those in the current abortion law, as the legislation made a volte-face in the 1970’s. Today, abortion is a right and the state is the duty-bearer. This construction collides with the conscience of r
Abstract Microfluidics is the field where the behavior of fluids is studied in very small channels, and small means that the size of the channels normally is only a couple of hundred microns. Fluids in the µL/nL/pL range are handled in microfluidics. There´s a difference in the behavior of fluids on the microscale compared to the macroscale. This difference, taken into consideration yields severa
The large-scale expansion of wind energy is an important element of the energy transition in Germany and a necessary tool to mitigate climate change. Yet, it is contested in many rural settings across the country. This thesis builds on the argument that rural areas are a crucial factor for the energy transition. They serve as the sites that host most of the infrastructure needed in the transition
Background: Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in the intestines is an inflammatory condition which activates leukocytes and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and leads to lipid peroxidation and DNA damage. Bilberry and chokeberry fruits are rich sources of polyphenols which may act as antioxidants and prevent lipid peroxidation. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) may improve microbial status in the intestines and in
Purpose: This study explores how people account for their translation, negotiation and shaping of environmentally relevant practices as information practices in their everyday life during the holidays and asks further how these narratives can be seen as accounting for situated information practices. It focuses on how summer guests holidaying in southern Sweden talk about how they connect different
Catchment-scale material transport models are today important tools for water and environmental management. However, modelling of material transport is extremely complex due to the physical, chemical and biological processes involved. The complexity calls for spatial distribution and thereby a need for large amounts of input data that generally are not available. Lumped models based on conceptual
This study used the urban context of Brunnshög, Sweden as a real case study to assess non-visual daylight conditions in urban environments. More precisely, the work was focusing on how the light spectrum – through surrounding façade colour and window type – can have an impact on the circadian potential. A one-bedroom apartment opening onto a courtyard on the ground floor and the same apartment on
The Central Valley of Cochabamba is located in the Andes mountain range, Bolivia. This region experiences several water related challenges such as a scarcity of surface water, an increasing water demand, a growing urbanization in groundwater recharge areas, and a declining water table due to intensive groundwater extraction. The valley has been influenced by both alluvial and fluvial depositions t
There is widespread consensus that teamwork constitutes one of the key requirements in today’s multidisciplinary and highly complex system of delivering care. In recent years, increasing attention has been given to questions of how to define, teach, measure, and improve teamwork in healthcare. However, one cannot help but feel a certain disconnect between this ongoing trend, with an associated bia
Centrala lägen av städerna vilka tidigare nyttjats för industri har genom ett förändrande samhälle och ekonomi kommit att lämnats orörda och i förfall. Detta medför att det idag finns attraktiva fastigheter med potentiella föroreningar i mark och byggnader vilka samhället nu önskar utnyttja för andra ändamål såsom bostäder, kontor och handel. Exploatering av dessa områden innebär stora kostnader oAttractive locations in cities, previously used for industry, have been left untouched and in disrepair due to changes in society and the economy. This situation has resulted in central properties with potentially contaminated land and buildings that society now wishes to redevelop for housing, offices and commerce. Developing these areas involves significant costs and uncertainties for potential
