    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a blood borne virus effectively spread through injection practices. Consequently, people who inject drugs (PWID) are at the center of the current HCV epidemic in industrialized countries, with regards both to prevalence and incidence. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Infections in allogeneic stem cell transplanted patients : clinical and immunological aspects

    Nyckelord :HSCT; bacteraemia invasive fungal infection; interstitial pneumonia; immunity.;

    Sammanfattning : In allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), 30 to 40 % of transplant related mortality is associated with infection complications. This includes invasive bacterial and fungal infection, and interstitial pneumonia (IP), which are two important causes of morbidity and mortality. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The cytotoxic effector lymphocytes of the immune system, the natural killer (NK) cells and the CD8+ T lymphocytes (CTL), have been ascribed a pivotal role in defense against malignancy. However, the function of these cells is frequently compromised, in particular at sites of malignant cell expansion. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Combination chemotherapy for human immunodeficiency virus infection

    Författare :Sarah Palmer; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The worldwide spread of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has spurred the search for effective drugs to combat this deadly virus. The limited effect of monotherapy treatment, in large measure due to the development of drug resistant viral strains, has led to increased emphasis on combination chemotherapy for the treatment of HIV, the focus of this study.
