  2. 16. Norovirus and rotavirus susceptibility : studies from a Nicaraguan birth cohort

    Author : Yaoska Reyes; Johan Nordgren; Lennart Svensson; Miren Iturriza-Gómara; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Norovirus; Rotavirus; Birth cohort; Gastroenteritis; Incidence; Children; Secretor; Immune response.;

    Abstract : Norovirus and rotavirus are major causes of pediatric acute gastroenteritis (AGE). It is estimated that norovirus is responsible for ~20% of all diarrheal diseases in children worldwide and causes approximately 200,000 deaths each year, mostly in young children and the elderly.

  4. 17. Enhancing the therapeutic effect of biological drugs with protein engineering : Focusing on pre-clinical Alzheimer’s disease therapy

    Author : Fadi Rofo; Greta Hultqvist; Stina Syvänen; Sara Mangsbo; Joy Zuchero; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer’s disease; amyloid-beta; blood-brain barrier; transferrin receptor; protein-drugs; multivalent-bispecific antibodies;

    Abstract : Aggregation of the amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) is one of the main pathological hallmarks in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The soluble Aβ aggregates (oligomers and protofibrils) have shown to be the most harmful species. Hence, targeting these aggregates can be of therapeutic potential. READ MORE

  5. 18. A Composable and Extensible Environment for Equation-based Modeling and Simulation of Variable Structured Systems in Modelica

    Author : John Tinnerholm; Adrian Pop; Martin Sjölund; Peter Fritzson; Christopher Rackauckas; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Modeling and Simulation are usually used to solve real-world problems safely and efficiently by constructing digital models of Cyber-Physical Systems. The models can be simulated and analyzed with respect to requirements, and decisions about their design can be based on this analysis. READ MORE

  6. 19. Workplace Social Relations in the Return-to-Work process

    Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to explore the impact of workplace social relations on the implementation of return-to-work interventions. The thesis consists of four separate papers with specific aims. READ MORE

  7. 20. Mesoporous transition metal oxides for oxygen electrocatalysis in energy conversion technologies

    Author : Zhixing Wu; Emma Björk; Magnus Odén; Mikhail Vagin; Freddy Kleitz; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Electrocatalysis, the foundation of electrical to chemical energy transformation, enables the mitigation of the electrical energy losses during reactions and the control of selectivity of the process to certain chemical products. The slow rate and the multi-step complexity of oxygen-associated reactions, namely oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER), motivate the use of platinum group metals (PGM) catalysts, which significantly increase the price of the technologies due to the cost and scarcity of PGM-based materials.
