  2. 16. Developing new models of childhood malignancies using human induced pluripotent stem cells

    Author : Ana Marin Navarro; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Early onset diseases such as childhood malignancies and neurodevelopmental disorders have been intricate to study. For many years, research has relied and dependent upon different animal systems. READ MORE

  4. 17. Individual Support for Cancer Patients : Effects, Patient Satisfaction and Utilisation

    Author : Maria Hellbom; Christoffer Johansen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; Cancer; individual support; patient satisfaction; utilisation; prediction; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Caring Sciences; omvårdnadsforskning med samhällsvetenskaplig inriktning;

    Abstract : The aims of this thesis are threefold: (1) To investigate cancer patients’ satisfaction with and utilisation of an Individual Psychological Support (IPS) intervention. (2) To evaluate the effects of Individual Support (IS), comprising IPS combined with Intensified Primary Health Care and Nutritional Support, on psychological distress and quality of life during the first year after diagnosis.

  5. 18. Positional Cloning of Disease Causing Genes : A Genetic Study of Obesity, Ichthyosis Prematurity Syndrome and Meniere's Disease

    Author : Joakim Klar; Niklas Dahl; Catharina Larsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; Positional cloning; Obesity; Ichthyosis; Meniere’s disease; RORa; PIK3C2G; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : Positional cloning is a method to identify genes from their position in the genome without prior knowledge about function. We used this approach to investigate the basis for three distinct genetic disorders; Obesity, Ichthyosis Prematurity Syndrome and Meniere's disease. READ MORE

  6. 19. Hematopoiesis: Functional Insights by Cell Fate Conversion

    Author : Martin Wahlestedt; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Blood cell formation, or hematopoiesis, is maintained by rare hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) residing in the bone marrow (BM). HSCs may self-renew (the process whereby HSCs replicate to produce new HSCs) to preserve their own numbers, as well as initiate a highly coordinated hierarchical differentiation process that results in the production of mature effector blood cells.

  7. 20. Modelling and strength grading of structural timber and glulam lamellae on the basis of optical scanning and dynamic excitation

    Author : Andreas Briggert; Anders Olsson; Jan Oscarsson; Mikael Perstorper; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fibre direction; finger joint; machine strength grading; knots; tracheid effect; Norway spruce; Byggteknik; Civil engineering;

    Abstract : Machine strength grading of sawn timber is a sawmill process in which density, modulus of elasticity (MOE) and bending or tensile strength are predicted such that the timber can be assigned to strength classes. The predictions of these properties are performed using one or several so-called indicating properties (IPs), which represent a board property, or combination of board properties, measured non-destructively.
