21. Chemosensitivity in Breast Cancer
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer mortality in Sweden is now in decline, thanks to early detection and the wide use of adjuvant endocrine therapy and chemotherapy. While hormone receptor status is predictive of response to endocrine treatment, there is no clinically useful predictive marker of a patient’s response to chemotherapy. LÄS MER
22. Structural and Magnetic Properties of Fe/Co (001) and Fe/V (001) Superlattices
Sammanfattning : The structural and magnetic properties of Fe/Co (001) and Fe/V (001) superlattices have been investigated. The thin film structures were deposited on MgO (001) substrates using a four source ultra-high-vacuum based sputtering equipment. LÄS MER
23. Insights into Materials Properties from Ab Initio Theory : Diffusion, Adsorption, Catalysis & Structure
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, density functional theory (DFT) calculations and DFT based ab initio molecular dynamics simulations have been employed in order to gain insights into materials properties like diffusion, adsorption, catalysis, and structure. In transition metals, absorbed hydrogen atoms self-trap due to localization of metal d-electrons. LÄS MER
24. Genetic variation in genes involved in Abeta-degradation in Alzheimer disease
Sammanfattning : Alzheimer disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that causes dementia among mainly elderly people and is increasing in prevalence in industrialized societies from 1 to 3 % in 60-65 year-olds to as much as 50 % by age 95. This disease is complex. Multiple genes are involved, and they potentially affect each other. LÄS MER
25. Everyday living with persistent pain in old age. Pain and its alleviation as perceived by functionally dependent older persons and by staff
Sammanfattning : This thesis explores everyday living with persistent pain from the perspectives of functionally dependent older persons in pain and of staff. A combination of qualitative and quantitative methods was chosen. Data were collected using interviews and tools for assessing pain. LÄS MER
