  2. 1. On Perceived Exertion and its Measurement

    Author : Elisabet Borg; Birgitta Berglund; Ana Garriga-Trillo; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Perceptual scaling; psychophysics; Category-Ratio scale; perceived exertion; interindividual comparisons; Psychology; Psykologi; psykologi; Psychology;

    Abstract : The general aim of the thesis is to answer questions on general and differential aspects of perceived exertion and on the measurement of its intensity variation. Overall perceived exertion is commonly treated as a unidemensional construct. This thesis also explores its multidimensional character. Four empirical studies are summarized (Study I-IV). READ MORE

  4. 2. Photon migration in tissue : laser induced fluorescence for cancer diagnostics and influence of optical properties on microvascular Doppler spectroscopy

    Author : Henrik Nilsson; Othar Svaasand Svansand; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Laser induced flourescence (LIF) is an "optical biopsy" method, based on the selective accumulation of fluorophores in neoplastic tissue. Two recently developed, non-photosensitizing tumor seeking carotenoporphyrins were assessed regarding tumor selectivity, and biodistribution, in experimental animals. READ MORE

  5. 3. Immune cell composition and cytokine expression in the pregnant and non-pregnant uterus

    Author : Ylva Crona Guterstam; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The success of implantation and further development of the embryo is heavily dependent on the endometrial immune cell composition and its ability to communicate with fetal semi-allogeneic trophoblast cells. Although our understanding of the immune cell population in the uterus has improved, its precise role in normal reproduction and reproductive disorders is still not fully resolved. READ MORE
