  2. 11. Superantigens in group A streptococcus : gene diversity and humoral immune response

    Author : Linda Maripuu; Mari Norgren; Susan Hollingshead; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Group A streptococcus; Streptococcus pyogenes; superantigen SAg ; SAg-gene profile; M-protein; emm-genotype; biomedicinsk laboratorievetenskap; biomedical laboratory science;

    Abstract : Group A streptococcus (GAS) is a strictly human pathogen that causes infections ranging from asymptomatic carriage to the highly lethal streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS). GAS are classified according to the sequence of the variable 5’ end of the emm-gene that encodes the surface associated M-protein. READ MORE

  4. 12. Late complications after total hip arthroplasty

    Author : Erik B Mathiesen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The present study concerns late complications after total hip arthroplasty in relation to implant material, design, and mode of implant fixation. Frictional characteristics in retrieved and new acetabular sockets was studied under dry and lubricated conditions comparing conventional polyethylene sockets with polyacetal sockets from the Christiansen prosthesis.

  5. 13. Numerical methods for load and response prediction for use in acoustic fatigue

    Author : Johan Nilsson; Byggnadsmekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Acoustic fatigue; Sonic fatigue; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Large Eddy Simulation; Finite Element Method; Random response analysis; Separated flow; High Re; Backward-facing step; Fence flow; Aircraft; Proper Orthogonal Decomposition; Acoustic fatigue; Sonic fatigue; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Large Eddy Simulation; Finite Element Method; Random response analysis; Separated flow; High Re; Backward-facing step; Fence flow; Aircraft; Proper Orthogonal Decomposition;

    Abstract : Acoustic fatigue can occur in structural elements of an aircraft exposed to very high sound pressures. To deal with acoustic fatigue, mainly empirical methods have been applied and often late in the design phase. Current design guidelines have three main limitations. First, they do not say anything about the load intensities. READ MORE

  6. 14. Effect of allergen specific immunotherapy on allergic inflammation in the upper and lower airways

    Author : Monica Arvidsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; birch pollen allergy; cat allergy; specific immunotherapy; rush immunotherapy; experimental allergen challenge; late asthmatic response;

    Abstract : Experimental allergen challenge is widely used in diagnostic practice and research in allergy, but its relationship to environmental exposures is not clarified. Both models of allergic diseases have been used in order to examine the effects of allergen specific immunotherapy (SIT). READ MORE

  7. 15. On osseointegration in response to controlled surface nanotopography

    Author : Dimitrios Karazisis; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; in vivo; nanotopography; osseointegration; topography;

    Abstract : Knowledge about the biological responses provoked by the surface modification of titanium implants on the nanoscale is still in its infancy. Although in vitro studies claim superior effects considering higher adhesion and proliferation of osteoblasts in the short term and even differentiation towards the osteogenic cell lineage in the long term, these responses do not necessarily reflect the actual outcome in the complex in vivo environment.
