Multiple sclerosis is a neuroinflammatory degenerative disease, caused by activated immune cells infiltrating the CNS. The disease etiology involves both genetic and environmental factors. The mouse genetic locus, Eae27, linked to disease development in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model for multiple sclerosis, was studied in order to identify contributing disease susceptibi
Objectives To investigate the impact of a multifactorial treatment programme in a real-life setting on clinical outcomes and estimated cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Design A retrospective observational cohort study, using data from the electronic medical records and national registers. Setting Tertiary diabetes centre in Denmark. Participants Patients with type 2 diabetes (n=4299) referred to
The incidence of obesity in the developed world is increasing at an alarming rate. Concurrent with the increase in the incidence of obesity is an increase in the incidence of type 2 diabetes. Cyclic AMP (cAMP) and cGMP are key second messengers in all cells; for example, when it comes to processes of relevance for the regulation of energy metabolism, cAMP is a key mediator in the regulation of lip
To evaluate the performance of dried blood spots (DBSs) with subsequent analyses of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GADA) and islet antigen-2 (IA-2A) with the RSR-ELISAs, we selected 80 children newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and 120 healthy women. DBSs from patients and controls were used for RSR-ELISAs while patients samples were analysed also with in-house RIAs. The RSR-ELISA-GADA performed
CD46 is a cell surface complement inhibitor widely expressed in human tissues, in contrast to mice, where expression is limited to the testes. In humans, it has been identified as an important T cell costimulatory receptor, and patients deficient in CD46 or its endogenous ligands are unable to mount effective Th1 T cell responses. Stimulation of human CD4(+) T cells with CD3 and CD46 also leads to

This thesis provides an account of the pledge-making and eventual pledge fulfilment of the Swedish government of 2014, which consisted of the Social Democratic Party and the Green Party. It is grounded in the theoretical approaches of the mandate model of representation and promissory representation. It explores whether the pledges these two parties made within issue areas that their voters identi
This thesis is dedicated to exploring and understanding public reactions within negotiated peace settlements based on social media data. Concretely, to modeling public opinion and sentiment within the context of the Colombian peace process using a curated dataset of N= ~1.3 million user comments expressing discord on 15,509 Facebook posts, throughout three years (2020-2022). A critical period embr
This study attempts to unravel the stock market participation puzzle. It approaches the puzzle with the idea that access to information reduces entry costs and, hence, encourages stock market participation. The literature suggests that information dissemination occurs through social interaction. Therefore, higher social engagement increases the odds of stock market participation. This study questi
This thesis is structured around one central question: This study will determine the extent to which political change in the discourse topics of European Political Groups (EPGs) can be traced in European election manifestos through the use of Structural Topic Modeling (STM). This thesis asserts that there is a significant gap in our understanding of how to assess Euromanifestos and of the macrostr
Social factors within educational settings have been repeatedly highlighted as a key determinant of students' academic achievements and school success. This thesis investigates the interplay between peer relations, social belonging, cultural identity, school culture, and academic outcomes in Swedish upper secondary schools. Utilizing survey data gathered in 2013 from students across eleven upp
This study investigates the framing of populism in the speeches of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan from 2014 to 2024. It aims to understand how populist frames are constructed and transformed over time by centralizing social mobilization beyond party classification as populist or not and media perspectives. The main research question explores how populism is framed and aligned over the spec
Persons with disabilities are often not considered in larger-scope studies on domestic violence. Domestic violence services, such as crisis shelters or support groups, do often not offer flexibility and accessibility in their services. This can have vast consequences for persons with a disability exposed to domestic violence, and it can prove difficult to leave a violent relationship. The followin
John Lucas and Roger Penrose attempted to refute Computationalism, the theory that the human mind is a computational system. They did so by utilizing meta-mathematical proofs by Kurt Gödel. I will explore various objections made against the attempt and discover that it relies on two uncertain premises – human consistency and proof for the consistency of a formal system. Revisions of the argument a
The European spruce bark beetle is considered as one of the most destructive forest insects to Norway spruce trees in Europe. Climate change may increase the frequency and intensity of bark beetle outbreaks. It is therefore of vital importance to detect the bark beetle outbreaks and take it under control to prevent further damages. Remote sensing techniques may provide a cost-efficient solution to
This study employs large-scale Chinese pre-trained language models (BERT series) and the Fill-Mask Association Test (FMAT) to systematically measure gender- and age-based, as well as class-based, heterogeneity in marital status stereotypes embedded in natural language. Four sub-studies were designed to examine the effects of age (22–40 years), residence (urban vs. rural), and education (high vs. l
