Background – Advancing the development of highly efficacious and long-lasting malaria vaccines is hampered by incomplete knowledge of protective immune mechanisms and an absence of established correlates of immunity. Antibody avidity is frequently evaluated as an indicator of a high-quality or protective antibody response to vaccination. However, the importance of avidity in vaccine-induced immuni
This thesis deals with policy processes concerning implementation of bottle bills in Colorado and Maine, USA. The empirical data was collected using mostly online sources and analyzed using theories from Kingdon and Baungartner et al. The conclusion is that the industry lobby organizations have less power than usually perceived. The real influential power lies with the people of the two different
Background: Malaria kills almost 1 million people every year, but the mechanisms behind protective immunity against the disease are still largely unknown. Methodology/Principal Findings: In this study, surface plasmon resonance technology was used to evaluate the affinity (measured as kd) of naturally acquired antibodies to the Plasmodium falciparum antigens MSP2 and AMA1. Antibodies in serum samp
A range of researchers with different specialties have expressed an interest in the MDC dietary data: Nutritional epidemiologists with experiences from other dietary datasets.Nutritional researchers established in clinical or experimental research, but with little experience of epidemiology.Epidemiological researchers with limited experience of food science and nutrition.Clinical researchers with

The purpose of this thesis is to explore how marketing freelancers perceive personal branding and how they practice it. Both offline and online environments for practicing personal branding have been included. The aimed contribution is to broaden the understanding of personal branding by adding the perceptions that marketing freelancers have towards this topic. Additionally, the attempt is to prov
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are expressed and secreted during fracture repair. Although they are likely to be required for this process, little is known about their physiological role in bone regeneration. Noggin is a protein that specifically binds and inactivates several BMPs, It plays fundamental roles during early embryonal development and limb morphogenesis by this BMP-inactivating act
In this work the intermetallic systems formed by transition-metals from group 5 to 9 with Ga, In and Zn have been experimentally and theoretically studied in detail. Syntheses, compositional analyses, X-ray and neutron diffraction (single crystal as well as powder) and measurements of physical properties, e.g. magnetic susceptibility and resistivity has been made for all compounds. Electronic-stru
The purpose of this thesis is to examine how state biographical narratives can change and how this process might affect a state’s ontological security. Moreover, it looks at whether interstate friendship could alleviate any feelings of anxiety caused by such changes. Using the case of Austria after World War II, the analysis focuses on political elites’ articulations of Austrian state identity alo
This thesis is a study of the articles published in the Chinese newspaper 人民日报 Renmin Ribao, the People’s Daily, during the Great Chinese famine 1959-1961. The famine is considered to be the worst famine in the history of China and an estimated more than 30 million people died of starvation or illnesses brought about by starvation during these years. This thesis will be focusing on the articles pu
Background We aimed to document international practices in small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE), measuring adherence to European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) technical and clinical recommendations. Methods Participants reached through the ESGE contact list completed a 52-item web-based survey. Results 217 responded from 47 countries (176 and 41,
