Background: Identification of disease-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) may be facilitated by focusing on genes in a disease-associated pathway. Objective: To search for SNPs in genes that belong to the T-cell receptor (TCR) pathway and that change in expression in allergen-challenged CD4+ cells from patients with SAR. Methods: CD4+ cells from pa
Popular Abstract in Swedish Teamarbete är en populär arbetsform inom hälso- och sjukvården och teamarbete anses kunna göra sjukvården både effektivare och säkrare. Detta gäller inte minst för arbete med kirurgi på operationssal. På operationssalen möts narkosläkare, narkossjuksköterskor, kirurger, operationssjuksköterskor och undersköterskor i olika konstellationer för att tillsammans behandla patThe topic of this thesis is teamwork in healthcare. Healthcare is often described as complex. This description is more appropriate now than ever with the extensive specialization that has taken place in recent decades resulting in increasingly specialized physicians and nurses. While this specialization has made it possible to cure even sicker patients, it has also resulted in less overlapping kno
Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common endocrine disorders in dogs and is commonly proposed to be of autoimmune origin. Although the clinical presentation of human type 1 diabetes (T1D) and canine diabetes are similar, the aetiologies may differ. The aim of this study was to investigate if autoimmune aetiology resembling human T1D is as prevalent in dogs as previously reported.
The purpose of this study was to investigate women's wishes and need for knowledge concerning sexuality and relationships in connection with gynecological cancer. A total of 11 women were interviewed following the completion of their treatment for gynecological cancer. The data was analyzed using latent content analysis. Two main categories were identified: "The absence of knowledge about the body
Fisher 344 rats with implanted N29 glioma tumours were treated with Pulsed Electric Fields (PEF) in combination with immunization using either IFN-gamma-gene-transfected syngeneic tumour cells or IFN-gamma transfected N29 cells treated with 10 micro-M 5-aza-2-deoxycytidine (DAC). Tumours (N29) were inoculated subcutaneously on both thighs of female F- 344 syngeneic rats. The left tumour was treate
This thesis explores the concept of youth organizing in the context of two interrelated youth-led organizations addressing climate change in Kenya. A growing body of interdisciplinary research points to the ways in which engagement in youth organizing initiatives can contribute to the individual development of the youth involved. By engaging youth in political mobilizing efforts against forms of s
Purpose – The purpose of this master thesis is to examine the profile of contemporary skills and knowledge provided in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (LSCM) postgraduate programs offered by Swedish universities and compares them with job requirements. Design/methodology/approach – This master thesis employs the desk-based research involving content analysis based on 14 postgraduate LSCM pro
Polyphenols are a group of compounds that are widely spread in the plant kingdom. These compounds are of great interest for researchers because of their antioxidant properties that are important for both plant life and human health. Sample preparation is a crucial step for the determination of phenolic compounds and their metabolites in biological samples. Methods for isolation and preconcentratio
Foreign invested SMEs have recently become increasingly interested in China. The enterprises are in this report categorized as second wave companies since they follow the footsteps of previous pioneers, of which mostly were larger companies. The ambitions of the SMEs are either to sell products on the ever expanding Chinese market or to utilize the potential of low cost production for global marke
Whether executed as full-scale war or acts short of war, acts of aggression have consistently shaped the history of humankind. Acts of aggression would not occur if it were not for the involvement of individuals. The historical development of aggression in international law has seen a shift from a regime solely focusing on the unlawfulness of the action by States, to include the unlawfulness of th
En av de stora utmaningarna inom den internationella handelsrätten idag är hur man ska kunna förbättra situationen för utvecklingsländer inom den internationella handeln. Denna uppsats belyser specifika undantagsregler, inom WTO-rätten, som har till ändamål att öka utvecklingsländers möjligheter att delta i den internationella handeln. Industriländer tilldelar utvecklingsländer, i enlighet med WTOOne of the current challenges within the field of international trade law is how to meet the special needs of developing countries and how to a greater extent include these countries in the world trading system. This thesis examines a particular set of exception rules that exist on behalf of developing countries. Developing countries are, in accordance with WTO law, granted different tariff prefer
This thesis is devoted to examining the recently established human rights regime within the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), consisting of the ASEAN Charter, the ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights (AICHR), and the ASEAN Commission on the Promotion and Protection of Women and Children (ACWC). The overall purpose is study if the regime will ensure better adherence of h
Zirkon (ZrSiO4) och baddeleyit (ZrO2) är två vanliga zirkoniuminnehållande mineral som båda är viktiga för U-Pb-geokronologi. Zirkon är stabilt under kiselmättade förhållanden medan baddeleyit under kiselmättade förhållanden torde reagera med det tillgängliga kislet och bilda zirkon. Trots detta har baddeleyit observerats som interna domäner i zirkon i kiselmättade bergarter från exempelvis sydväsZircon (ZrSiO4) and baddeleyite (ZrO2) are two common zirconium bearing minerals which are important for U-Pb geochronology. Zircon is stable at silica saturated conditions, while baddeleyite should react with the free silica to form zircon under the same conditions. Yet, baddeleyite have been observed as intergrowths within zircon grains in silica saturated rocks, e.g. from southern West Greenlan
In this paper we calculate the limit of the $L^1$-means of certain weighted Poisson kernels in the unit disc and show that this limit is equal to $1$. Our result is in sharp contrast to a recent result by George F\"ulep who has shown that some related limit superiors are strictly greater than $1$. Limits of this type are of interest from the point of view of approximation theory.
A method based on three-phase hollow fiber liquid phase microextraction was developed and successfully applied to aerosols for the analysis of lignin pyrolysis acids such as syringic acid, vanillic acid and p-salicylic acid. Important parameters related to extraction process like organic solvent for membrane phase, tri-n-octylphosphine (TOPO) oxide contents in organic solvent, stirring speed, extr
