  2. 6. Oral health and cardiovascular disease

    Author : Anders Holmlund; Lars Lind; Ulf. H Lerner; Anders Gustafsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medicine; Oral health; periodontal disease; number of teeth; cardiovascular disease; mortality; Medicin;

    Abstract : In the past two decades studies have indicated that oral health might be associated with the prevalence for cardiovascular disease (CVD), although the biological link still remains unknown. Bacteria and inflammatory mediators causing periodontal disease have also been suggested to influence the progression of atherosclerosis. READ MORE

  4. 7. The influence of numbers when students solve equations

    Author : Anna Holmlund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Equation-solving; algebra; phenomenography; coefficients;

    Abstract : Is it possible that some students’ primary difficulty with equation-solving is neither handling the literal symbols nor the equality, but the numbers used as coefficients? It is well known that many students find algebra a difficult topic, and there is much research on how students experience this strand of mathematics, with indications of how it can be taught. Still, a perspective not often fronted in this research – that has been suggested as an area potentially important – is how numbers, other than natural numbers, in algebra, are perceived by students.

  5. 8. Identification and investigations of leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains protein 2 (LRIG2)

    Author : Camilla Holmlund; Håkan Hedman; Roger Henriksson; Monica Nistér; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : LRIG; PDGF; oligodendroglioma; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; onkologi; Oncology;

    Abstract : Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) constitute a family of proteins controlling cell growth and proliferation and whose activities are tightly controlled in normal cells. LRIG1 is a negative regulator of RTK signaling and is a proposed tumor suppressor. The aim of this thesis was to identify and study possible paralogs of LRIG1. READ MORE

  7. 10. The polymorphism of the minisatellite system D2S44

    Author : Gunilla Holmlund; Bjrønar Olaisen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The polymorphism of the minisatellite system D2S44 comprises all the polymorphisms typical for a minisatellite sequence; from variation in fragment length caused by a restriction site polymorphism or due to variation in the number of a repeated core sequence, to a core sequence polymorphism comprising four variants and variation in the order in which these variants are iterated in tandem. All these polymorphisms can be utilised in paternity investigations, and analysis of the order of variant repeats in parent-child combinations showed that the D2S44 incompatibilities found are due to a mutation in the parental allele.
