  2. 1. Susceptibility gene mapping in multiple sclerosis

    Author : Bing He; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by relapsing or progressive demyelination of the central nervous system (CNS). Increasing evidence supports that genetic factors confer susceptibility to MS resulting in an unknown mode of inheritance as a complex trait. READ MORE

  4. 2. Towards an Earlier Detection of Progressive Multiple Sclerosis using Metabolomics and Machine Learning

    Author : Stephanie Herman; Kim Kultima; Ola Spjuth; Joachim Burman; Johan Lengqvist; Camilla Svensson; Gabi Kastenmüller; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bioinformatics; biomarkers; progressive multiple sclerosis; metabolomics; machine learning; advanced analytics; mass spectrometry;

    Abstract : Decision-making guided by advanced analytics is becoming increasingly common in many fields. Implementing computationally driven healthcare solutions does, however, pose ethical dilemmas as it involves human health. READ MORE

  5. 3. Linkage and association analysis in multiple sclerosis

    Author : Yamei Dai; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system, which is characterized by relapsing or progressive demyelinating plaques in the brain and spinal cord. It is well established that complex genetic factors influence susceptibility to MS. READ MORE

  6. 4. Engineering Equality? : Assessing the Multiple Impacts of Electoral Gender Quotas

    Author : Pär Zetterberg; Li Bennich-Björkman; Per Adman; Christina Bergqvist; Anne Maria Holli; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; quotas; gender; women; equality; representation; participation; candidate selection; Latin America; Political science; Statsvetenskap; Statskunskap; Political Science;

    Abstract : The driving question of this compilation thesis is whether quotas for political assemblies represent an effective tool for breaking down gender inequality in the political sphere. To put it differently, focus is on the possibilities for policy-makers to engineer equality. READ MORE

  7. 5. Molecular epidemiology approach : nested case-control studies in glioma and lymphoid malignancies

    Author : Florentin Späth; Beatrice S. Melin; Carl Wibom; Ann Sofie Johansson; Ingvar Bergdahl; Ola Landgren; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glioma; B cell lymphoma; multiple myeloma; risk; repeated samples; prospective longitudinal study; nested case-control study; circulating sEGFR and sERBB2; circulating immune markers and growth factors; marker disease association; disease progression; NSHDS; Janus; linear mixed modeling; epidemiologi; Epidemiology; Oncology; onkologi;

    Abstract : BACKGROUND: Nested case-control studies aim to link molecular markers with a certain outcome. Repeated prediagnostic samples may improve the evaluation of marker-disease associations. However, data regarding the benefit of repeated samples in such studies are sparse. READ MORE
