Flera forskningsprojekt vid vår avdelning är inriktade på att bättre förstå mekanismer som ligger bakom utvecklingen av svåra infektionssjukdomar, fr.a. orsakade av bakterier men också av virus och svampar. Utgångspunkten för arbetet har ofta varit upptäckten av bakteriella ytproteiner och enzymer som på olika sätt interagerar med människans försvarssystem (medfödd och förvärvad immunitet och blodSeveral research projects at our Division are focused on molecular and cellular mechanisms that contribute to the development of severe infections caused preferentially by bacteria, but also by viruses and fungi. The starting point for this work has often been the discovery of bacterial surface proteins and enzymes that interact with human defenses (innate and acquired immunity and blood coagulati

Background The prognosis in adults with congenital aortic valve disease is usually favourable; nevertheless, a number of medical and social factors might hamper long-term prognosis and quality of life. With a focus on physical exercise level, data from the Swedish National Registry on Congenital Heart Disease (SWEDCON) were analysed and variables associated with health-related quality of life in a

Background Due to improved care, the numbers of patients with tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) are increasing. However, long-term morbidity and need for reinterventions are concerns and also address issues of quality of life (QoL). Methods Patients with ToF and valid EuroQol-5 dimensions questionnaire (EQ-5D) were identified in the national Swedish register on congenital heart disease. EQ-5D index was ca

Geospatial data is becoming increasingly important as artificial intelligence develops rapidly, creating new opportunities in the field of Geographic Information Systems. The thesis investigates the possibility of establishing a method to automatically calibrate a network camera’s geolocation and heading direction by using a camera view image and its corresponding satellite image. The aim is to lo

Enligt AB 04 kap. 6 § 10 p. 1 åläggs entreprenören att utföra sitt arbete på ett sådant sätt att beställaren erhåller både bästa tekniska resultat och bästa ekonomiska resultat. I praktiken är dessa två resultat ofta svåra att förena, då de sällan korrelerar. Ytterligare komplexitet tillförs genom entreprenörens incitament att maximera sin vinst. Eftersom entreprenörens arvode ofta beräknas som et

ALS is characterized by the degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons. In about 70% of patients with ALS the disease has an spinal onset, while about 30% of the patients have a bulbar onset. Cognitive dysfunction and behavioral changes are seen in about 50% of the patients, and 15% develop frontotemporal dementia. There is no single test that provides the ALS diagnosis. The diagnosis is based

Syftet med denna uppsats är att ge en grundläggande överblick över materiell- och processuellrättsliga överväganden som aktualiseras vid en ansökan om civilprocessuella säkerhetsåtgärder inom ramen för ett aktieägaravtalsförhållande. Målet är att illustrera den praktiska tillämpningen och funktionen av civilprocessuella säkerhetsåtgärder i en situation där en aktieägaravtalspart hotas av kontraktsThe purpose of this thesis is to give a general view over the procedural and material considerations that arise at the application for precautionary or interim measures in the context of shareholders agreements, according to Swedish law and jurisprudential doctrine. The objective is to illustrate the possibility, function and application of precautionary and interim measures in a situation where a

Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is one of the most used and established therapies for steroid-refractory graft-vs-host disease (GvHD), with a good effect to side effect profile. In this review, we present a summary of present literature and provide evidence-based treatment guidelines for ECP in GvHD. The guidelines constitute a consensus statement formed by the Nordic ECP Quality Group represen

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) for medicine and health care is rapidly evolving. However, the automation, scale and data dependency of AI-driven decision-making and decision-support calls for a reassessment of principal ethical and legal norms of transparency, in the light of these novel methodologies. The quality of AI-driven health care, we argue, is depending on it. In this cha

Background: Emerging evidence indicates that estrogen receptor-low (ER-low)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer (BC) may more closely resemble ER-negative (ER-zero, < 1%) rather than ER-positive disease in terms of biological and clinicopathological characteristics. In Sweden, ER-low (ER 1–9%) BC is managed as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and is thus eli
