Type 1 diabetes is therefore in general believed to be caused by an immune-mediated beta cell destruction. READ MORE

3. Cytomegalovirus Infection in Heart and Lung Transplant Patients with focus on long-term outcome
Abstract : Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a common opportunistic infection after heart and lung transplantation. The aims of this thesis were to relate the incidence and severity of CMV infection and disease to different forms of antiviral prevention and to evaluate whether CMV is a risk factor for bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) after lung transplantation and coronary artery vasculopathy (CAV) after heart transplantation.
