Mutation-bearing peptide ligands from mutated nucleophosmin-1 (NPM1) protein have been empirically found to be presented by HLA class I in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We hypothesized that HLA genotype may impact allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) outcomes in NPM1-mutated AML owing to differences in antigen presentation. We evaluated the effect of the variable of predic
The ways in which we experience life through, with and around media constitutes creative practices in our daily routines. However, media use is in part associated with harmful effects, for example television viewing amongst children and young people (Livingstone 2009). Discourses around digital games have been echoing the same type of concerns, becoming one of the focal points of these struggles i
According to medieval canon law, a marriage could be declared invalid if the consent had been given through force or fear. This ruling was a natural consequence of the insistence on free consent as the only requirement for a valid marriage. It did, however, entail a number of both practical and theoretical problems. It could be difficult to prove force and fear within the family, but also to defin
Bakgrund Inläggning av central venaccess, exempelvis central venkateter (CVK), är en invasiv åtgärd som kräver sterila betingelser för att förhindra introduktionen av mikroorganismer till blodbanan med en ökad risk för kolonisation respektive kateterrelaterad infektion. Med ett strukturerat arbetskoncept kan man uppnå en infektionsincidens nära noll. Flera aspekter är betonade i riktlinjerna, men
High-resolution physical, mineralogical, sedimentological and micropalaeontological studies were carried out on North Atlantic cores from the Reykjanes Ridge at 59degreesN and from the region southwest of the Faeroe Islands. All core sites are situated along the pathway of Iceland-Scotland Overflow Water (ISOW) and the various parameters measured display similar features. Previously identified car
Specific alterations (mutations, deletions, insertions) of virus genomes are crucial for the functional characterization of their regulatory elements and their expression products, as well as a prerequisite for the creation of attenuated viruses that could serve as vaccine candidates. Virus genome tailoring can be performed either by using traditionally cloned genomes as starting materials, follow

This thesis is about self-knowledge, self-regulation and self-control. All three of these terms are easily understandable, and apply to situations in our daily lives (like misjudging one’s own competence at retiling the bathroom floor, or feeling the anxiety and thrill of doing unsupervised work, or guiltily hitting the snooze-button for the fifth time, and missing half a day of school). The five
Popular Abstract in Swedish Okontrollerad proliferation och invasion är två viktiga egenskaper i tumörutveckling och tumörprogression. Tidigare studier har visat att invaderande tumörceller i kolorektalcancer har låg proliferation parallellt med en uppreglering av tumörsuppressorn p16. Vi undersökte p16-uttrycket och proliferation i basalcellscancer och skivepitelcancer i huden, tumörer som är lokUncontrolled proliferation and invasion are two characteristics in tumour development and progression. Previous studies have shown that invading tumour cells in colorectal cancer have low proliferation in parallel to upregulation of the tumour suppressor p16. We set out to detail the p16 expression and proliferation in basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, tumours that are
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar den kristna minoriteten Old Order Amish i USA ur ett ecklesiologiskt perspektiv. Genom att dels använda centrala begrepp som utgår från den undersökta gruppens egen religiösa vokabulär, dels några av de angreppssätt som är förhärskande inom det kyrkovetenskapliga studiet, framträder en fördjupad bild av amishfolkets insida. Hur uppfattar amish si
There is an increasing use of distributed computer systems to provide services in both traditional telephony as well as in the Internet. Two main technologies are Distributed Object Computing (DOC) and Web based services. One common DOC architecture investigated in this thesis is the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), specified by the Object Management Group. CORBA applications con
Popular Abstract in Swedish För att en flercellig organism ska kunna fungera krävs det att alla celler har en förmåga att svara på och anpassa sig till förändringar i dess inre och yttre miljö. För att kunna uppfylla detta krav utnyttjar cellerna utnyttjar ett komplext nätverk av signaleringsvägar där många av cellens enzymer och andra proteiner ingår. Proteinkinas C (PKC) är en enzymfamilj som beProtein kinase C (PKC) is a serine/threonine kinase family with 10 identified isoforms. The contribution of PKC isoforms to cell growth and differentiation, with focus on neurite outgrowth, was investigated, using neuroblastoma and immortalised neural cells as model systems. In neuroblastoma cells one or several of the classical PKC isoforms are of importance for driving proliferation, protecting
The thesis deals with ritual remembrance ceremonies enacted in the three towns of Mostar, Jajce and Višegrad in BiH. The Old Bridge in Mostar, the Bridge over the Drina in Višegrad and the AVNOJ Museum in Jajce all carry a material presence that influences everyday life in these localities. Through ethnographic fieldwork, insights into local practices in relation to those World Heritage Sites are
The idea for nature based research design emerged in preparation of a workshop and subsequent exhibition regarding minimal surfaces, supervised by Andreas Hopf, Senior Lecturer at Lund University School of Industrial Design, and supported by Prof. Dr. Konrad Polthier (Chair Mathematical Geometry Processing, FU Berlin) at the DESIGNMAI digital crafts event in Berlin in 2007, for which Swedish desig
Popular Abstract in Swedish Stroke är en vanlig och mycket allvarlig form av hjärt-kärlsjukdom som uppkommer på grund av försämrat blodflöde i en del av hjärnan. Eftersom hjärnan är extremt beroende av kontinuerlig tillförsel av syre och näringsämnen leder tillståndet snabbt till hjärnskada. Det finns tre typer av stroke; hjärninfarkt, hjärnblödning och subaraknoidalblödning (blödning under en hjäThe present thesis aimed to examine how ischemic stroke affects the vascular endothelin and angiotensin systems in cerebral arteries. To study vascular receptor changes in ischemic stroke transient focal ischemia was induced in rats. In addition, rat cerebral arteries and arterial smooth muscle cells were cultured for further analysis of cerebrovascular receptor regulation. For functional studies
Objectives: The aim is to estimate agreement between two-dimensional transvaginal ultrasound (2D-TVS) and three-dimensional volume contrast imaging (3D-VCI) in diagnosing deep myometrial invasion (MI) and cervical stromal involvement (CSI) of endometrial cancer and to compare the two methods regarding inter-rater reliability and diagnostic accuracy. Methods: Fifteen ultrasound experts assessed off
