    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; travel; travellers´diarrhea; microbiota; Campylobacter; Campylobacter jejuni; ST353CC; colonization resistance; enteritis; infection; Enterobacteriaceae; Christensenellaceae; Lachnospiraceae; whole genome sequence; vegetarian; bacterial resistance; ESBL; Extended spectrum beta-lactamase; probiotics; intestinal decolonization; eradication treatment; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious Diseases;

    Abstract : Up to 100 million people travel annually from industrialized countries to resource-limited ones. Each traveller contains an internal ecosystem composed of tens of trillions of microbes, known as the intestinal microbiota, which has a large effect on health. READ MORE

  4. 2. Cytokines as diagnostic biomarkers in canine pyometra and sepsis

    Author : Iulia Karlsson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Sepsis is a syndrome with high morbidity, mortality and astronomical health care costs and it is challenging to diagnose both in humans and animals due to the lack of suitable diagnostic biomarkers. Although several types of proteins have been suggested as diagnostic biomarkers of sepsis, none of them were shown to be reliable for routine use in the clinical practice. READ MORE

  5. 3. D-arabinitol in the diagnosis of invasive candidiasis

    Author : Gudrun Sigmundsdottir; Infektionsmedicin; []

    Abstract : Invasive candidiasis (IC) is a serious condition and timely diagnosis with early initiation of antifungal therapy is imerative for improving outcomes. Arabinitol is a sugar alcohol with two stereoisomers, D-arabinitol (DA) and L-arabintiol (LA). READ MORE

  6. 4. Haemophilus influenzae – typing, epidemiology and beta-lactam resistance

    Author : Viktor Månsson; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []

    Abstract : Haemophilus influenzae is a common cause of respiratory tract infections such as acute otitis media (AOM), exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pneumonia. The species is subdivided into encapsulated and non-encapsulated strains, designated type a-f and nontypeable H. influenzae (NTHi), respectively. READ MORE

  7. 5. The hepatitis B virus – Insights into genetic variability, evolution and Bayesian phylogeographic inference

    Author : Mikael Ingman; Malmö Klinisk virologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hepatit B; evolutionsbiologi; fylogeni; Hepatitis B; evolutionary dynamics; Phylogeography;

    Abstract : In terms of genome size, the hepatitis B virus is the smallest virus known to infect humans and its compactness with multiple overlapping reading frames puts restraints on the emergence of mutations. In the papers included in this thesis we aimed to investigate genetic variation within the precore and core promoter region and to describe the origin, spread and diversification of HBV genotype A.
