  1. 1. Distributive justice and the welfare state

    Author : Andreas Bergh; Nationalekonomiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Social ekonomi; Social economics; social insurance; welfare state; Redistribution; inequality;

    Abstract : This thesis is an attempt to generate knowledge about the justification, measurement and consequences of public redistribution. The first paper poses the following question: How much redistribution from working to non-working can be justified by arguing that external resources are owned jointly by all, or that ownership should ideally be divided equally? This question is analyzed using bargaining theory in a setting with two types who differ in production skill and consumption-leisure preferences. READ MORE

  2. 2. Aspects of bone quality and risk assessments in fracture and elective orthopaedic patients

    Author : Camilla Bergh; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Fracture; Fracture incidence; Epidemiology; Mortality; Osteoporosis; Frailty; Spinal stenosis; Bone quality; Bone mineral density;

    Abstract : Background: Bone quality, bone strength, and bone remodelling are important in many orthopaedic conditions and can have an impact on fracture incidence, bone healing, implant failure, and different outcome aspects. There is relatively sparse information on fracture incidence and mortality both for all fractures compiled and for some of the individual fracture locations. READ MORE

  3. 3. From Static Structures to Free Energy Landscapes: Characterizing Conformational Transitions in Biological Macromolecules

    Author : Cathrine Bergh; Erik Lindahl; Gerhard Hummer; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein conformational transitions; molecular dynamics simulations; statistical mechanics; ion channels; Proteinkonformationsövergångar; molekyldynamiksimuleringar; statistisk mekanik; jonkanaler;

    Abstract : To be alive means to temporarily counteract the fundamental dispersive driving force described by the second law of thermodynamics, eventually leading all systems to decay and disorder. In cells, this task is partly carried out by proteins - small specialized molecular machines that utilize free energy to maintain the proper functioning of the cell. READ MORE

  5. 5. On the role of the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor gene in hematopoietic differentiation

    Author : Gösta Bergh; Helsingborg Kliniska Vetenskaper; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; antisense; leukemia; cell cycle; differentiation; hematopoiesis; p16; p53; tumor suppressor genes; RB; oligonucleotides; Haematology; extracellular fluids; Hematologi; extracellulära vätskor;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to investigate the role of some tumor suppressor gene products (with emphasis on the retinoblastoma suppressor gene product) in the regulation of differentiation and proliferation in leukemic and normal hematopoietic cells. For this purpose, the expression of the tumor suppressor genes RB, p53 and p16 were artificially altered. READ MORE
