    Abstract : This thesis consists of two parts with the common theme of statistical modelling in chemistry. The first part is concerned with applications in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, while the second part deals with applications in polymerase chain reaction (PCR). READ MORE

  5. 3. Dried blood sampling and digital readout to advance molecular diagnostics

    Author : Johan Björkesten; Ulf Landegren; Björn Högberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; molecular diagnostics; dried blood sample; DBS; digital readout; digital enumeration; DNA detection methods; proximity extension assay; protein stability; genotyping; rare mutations; cell free DNA; multiplex protein measurement.; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Abstract : A drastically increased capacity to measure large sets of molecular features in numerous patient samples in great detail will be required to fulfill the vision of precision medicine and wellness, which may characterize molecular diagnostics in the 21st century. Also sampling procedures need a renaissance to permit continuous sampling at population levels at reasonable cost. READ MORE

  6. 4. Telomere length as prognostic parameter in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

    Author : Pawel Grabowski; Göran Roos; Ylva Paulsson Karlsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; telomere length; chronic lymphocytic leukemia; prognosis; longitudinal sampling; genomic aberrations; IGHV; CD38; ZAP70; prognostic factors; Pathology; Patologi; patologi; Pathology;

    Abstract : B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is the most common leukemia among the adult population in western countries and accounts for 30-40% of all leukemias. With survival time ranging from months to decades, the clinical course of individual CLL patients is highly variable. READ MORE

  7. 5. Optimisation of dengue diagnostic tools in order to increase the knowledge of the pathogenesis

    Author : Gunnel Lindegren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Dengue fever (DF) is the most common global viral mosquito-borne infection, with 100 million estimated cases annually in tropical and subtropical areas. The dengue viruses (genus Flavivirus, Flaviviridae) occur in 4 serotypes (DENV-1 to DENV-4). Dengue diseases range from a mild febrile disease to severe hemorrhagic fever. READ MORE
