  1. 1. Estimating source area of pollen and pollen productivity in the cultural landscapes of southern Sweden - developing a palynological tool for quantifying past plant cover

    Author : Anna Broström; Kvartärgeologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerial photographs; pollen productivity estimates; relevant source area of pollen; southern Sweden; quantitative landscape reconstruction; GIS; pollen dispersal; simulation model; Geology; physical geography; Geologi; fysisk geografi;

    Abstract : Fossil pollen records retrieved from peat and lake sediments have great potential for quantifying past plant cover. This thesis is a contribution to the development of a palynological interpretation tool for reconstructing past cultural landscapes in terms of plant abundance and distribution. READ MORE

  2. 2. Slow progression in HIV-1 infection : clinical, virological and immunological study

    Author : Christina Broström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : HIV-1; PHI; prognosis; slow progression; LTNP; longitudinal; specific pattern; HIV-1 RNA; HIV-1 DNA; spontaneous decrease;

    Abstract : The aim of the present thesis was to study factors that could possibly influence the course of HIV-1 infection with special emphasis on slow progression of the disease. Clinical, virological and immunological parameters were evaluated. One important clinical factor for the outcome of HIV-1 infection was identified. READ MORE

  3. 3. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis : disease consequences and treatment effects on muscle strength, gait and pain

    Author : Eva Broström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Gait; muscle strength; kinematics; kinetics; pain;

    Abstract : Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) may have a profound effect on the life of a child. Rheumatic diseases in children manifest mainly as synovitis, pain, stiffness, deformity, growth disturbances and fatigue. It is not uncommon to have reduced activity, lower aerobic endurance, and decreased muscle strength. READ MORE

  4. 4. Towards Energy Efficient Control of Individual Wheel Drive Articulated Vehicles

    Author : Fredrik Broström; Jonas Fredriksson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to increase knowledge in the area of articulated vehicles and specifically energy efficient traction control. Eletrical propulsion of vehicles has started to be popular due to its versatility and freedom of design. READ MORE

  5. 5. Neuromotor development and brain structure in children born extremely preterm

    Author : Lina Broström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Children born extremely preterm (EPT) are increasingly surviving but it is well known that they face a high risk of brain injury and neurodevelopmental impairments. The overall aim of the studies included in this thesis was to investigate the relationships between brain alterations and neurodevelopment, with specific focus on neuromotor outcomes in children born EPT.
