    Sammanfattning : Financial assets are volatile, and volatility becomes more intense in terms of size and rate of recurrence when markets are uncertain and growing rapidly. The fact that the recurrence rate increased during crisis periods, such as the IT bubble in the early 2000 and the global financial crisis that started in 2007, is a key finding in the literature.

  2. 2. Type l diabetes in childhood and adolescence, environmental exposures and gut microbiota

    Författare :Mona-Lisa Wernroth; Tove Fall; Bodil Svennblad; Katja Fall; Catarina Almqvist; Mikael Knip; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Type 1 diabetes; gut microbiota; antibiotics; stress; dogs; mode of delivery; Epidemiologi; Epidemiology;

    Sammanfattning : Environmental factors leading to disturbances in the gut microbiota might play an important role as triggers for, and/or contributing factors in, the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D). The overall aim of the research underlying this thesis was to study the influence of environmental factor exposure on the risk of T1D in childhood and adolescence, and gut microbiota composition in early childhood.

  3. 3. Medical interventions and gastric cancer risk : an observational approach

    Författare :Katja Fall; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Gastric cancer; cardia cancer; histological subtypes; H. pylori; antibiotic treatment; eradication; aspirin; NSAIDs; cholecystectomy; reactive gastritis; cohort; epidemiology;

    Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori infection is undoubtedly the most important risk factor for gastric cancer. A causal relationship with gastric cancer, however, has not been clearly established and the carcinogenic mechanism is still ambiguous. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Childhood bereavement, stress resilience, and cancer risk : an integrated register-based approach

    Författare :Beatrice Kennedy; Katja Fall; Fang Fang; Unnur Valdimarsdottír; Scott Montgomery; Meena Kumari; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; alcohol; bereavement; cancer; drug use; epidemiology; health behaviour; psychological resilience; smoking; stress;

    Sammanfattning : Accumulating evidence suggests that psychosocial stress and susceptibility to stressful exposures – stress resilience – influence the risk of various health outcomes, but the potential link with cancer occurrence is unclear. The aims of this thesis were to test if loss of a close relative, a marker of severe psychological stress, and stress resilience measured during late adolescence are associated with cancer risk later in life, as well as to explore potential underlying mechanisms.

    Nyckelord :Parkinson s disease; PD; treatment; epidemiology; electroconvulsive therapy; ECT; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose was to investigate some aspects of epidemiology, risk factors and treatment with ECT in advanced Parkinson’s disease (PD).In study I, we performed a descriptive epidemiologic population-based survey in the Central Health Care District in Östergötland in south-east Sweden, with a population of almost 150,000 inhabitants 1989.
