  2. 1. Experimental Studies of the Interaction of Atmospheric Aerosol Particles with Clouds and Fogs

    Author : Göran Frank; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; unipolar charger; Physics; DMA; differential mobility analyser; DAA; droplet aerosol analyser; fog microstructure; cloud microstructure; fog droplet; cloud droplet; cloud; fysisk instrumentering; fog; Metrologi; physical instrumentation; Metrology; Kärnfysik; Nuclear physics; Fysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2001:Frank;

    Abstract : In this work, cloud and fog droplet formation was studied in three joint field experiments. The instrument, the droplet aerosol analyser (DAA), has also been further developed and verified as part of this work. The DAA is an instrument especially developed for studies of cloud and fog droplet formation and growth. READ MORE

  4. 2. Study of Resistance in Hepatitis C Virus Prior to Treatment with Direct Acting Antivirals

    Author : Midori Kjellin; Johan Lennerstrand; Nina Weis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hepatitis C; HCV; DAA; RAS; resistance-associated substitution; baseline resistance; NS5A; NS3; SVR; Medical Virology; Medicinsk virologi; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious Diseases;

    Abstract : The rapid advancement of Hepatitis C (HCV) treatment presents a great challenge to clinicians in optimising therapy for their patients. Genotype (GT), efficacy, side-effects, drug combinations and treatment durations must be tailored to individual patients, considering comorbidities, degree of fibrosis, adherence and antiviral resistance.

  5. 3. Towards the elimination of hepatitis C : identifying the infected population, and remaining hepatitis C related risks after successful treatment

    Author : Charlotte Lybeck; Ann-Sofi Duberg; Soo Aleman; Scott Montgomery; Magnus Gottfredsson; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HCV; HCC; epidemiology; MTCT; pregnancy; DAA; OCI;

    Abstract : Chronic Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection can lead to liver fibrosis and cirrhosis with increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and liver failure. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has set a goal to eliminate viral hepatitis as a global health threat by 2030. READ MORE

  6. 4. Cloud Studies with the Droplet Aerosol Analyzer

    Author : Maria Berghof; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cloud; Aerosol; DAA;

    Abstract : Climate change and atmospheric aerosols are a threat for human health and life. Reducing aerosol emissions would save human lives close to the aerosol source, but could lead to more death due to the implications of a warmer climate. READ MORE

  7. 5. MHC polymorphism and host-pathogen interactions: The case of Borrelia in its reservoir host, the bank vole Myodes glareolus

    Author : Kristin Scherman; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Host-pathogen interaction; Negative frequency dependent selection; Myodes glareolus; Borrelia;

    Abstract : The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class IIB genes exhibit extensive allelic polymorphism, most likely maintained by pathogen-mediated balancing selection (PMBS). PMBS may operate in the form of heterozygote advantage (HA), and/or through the interaction of pathogens and specific MHC alleles via fluctuating selection (FS) or negative frequency-dependent selection (NFDS).
