2. 1. Structural Studies of Binding Proteins: Investigations of Flexibility, Specificity and Stability

   Author : Ulrika Magnusson; Sherry L. Mowbray; Anthony J. Wikinson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular biology; Periplasmic binding protein; X-ray crystallography; conformational change; acidophile; protein specificity; protein structure; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

   Abstract : Binding proteins are present both in gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. They are the recognition components of the ABC transport systems that transport different nutrients into the cell, and are in some cases also involved in chemotaxis. READ MORE

4. 2. Proteomic, metabolomic, and microbiome studies of blood pressure

   Author : Yi-Ting Lin; Johan Sundström; Martin Magnusson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Blood pressure; hypertension; proteomics; metabolomics; microbiome; molecular epidemiology; Mendelian randomization;

   Abstract : Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and premature death with a substantial global economic burden. To prevent and treat hypertension, it is crucial to improve our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms. Hypertension is a multifactorial condition influenced both by genetic and environmental factors. READ MORE

5. 3. Navigating Female Power : (De-) Constructing the Space of the Immortal Threat in Homer’s Odyssey

   Author : Paulina Partanen; Gabriella Beer; Jörgen Magnusson; Uppsala universitet; []

   Abstract : The purpose of this study is to locate spatial manifestations of power, and acts of agency, by conducting a subversive reading of the female immortal threats in Homer’s Odyssey. With an aim to question preconceived notions on sexuality, gender and power, I draw on the theoretical perspectives of gender theorists J. Butler and J. READ MORE

6. 4. Interpretation of diagnostic information given patient characteristics

   Author : Martin Gellerstedt; Hans Åhlfeldt; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; reference values; diagnostic theory; diagnostic tests; partitioning; prevalence function; reference values; diagnostic theory; diagnostic tests; partitioning; prevalence function;

   Abstract :  The aim with this thesis was to describe, exemplify and develop theory for reference values and diagnostic tests, especially focusing on the variability between individuals. To facilitate interpretation of medical information it is common to establish some kind of limit. There are several different rationales for the choice of such a limit. READ MORE

7. 5. Methods for measurements and analyses of cracks in flexible pavements

   Author : Petra Offrell; KTH; []
   Keywords : Cracking; Crack propagation; Data collection methods; Image analysis; Image processing; LTPP; Automatic identification systems; Flexible pavement; PAVUE; Laser RST; measures; characterisation; x-ray computerised tomography; asphalt; 3D analysis; top-;

   Abstract : When cracking has propagated through the entire asphaltbound layers, water may ingress into the unbound layers andaccelerate the deterioration of the road structure. Knowledgeon where cracks initiate and how they propagate vertically istherefore of great practical importance. READ MORE
