21. Semantic Spaces of Clinical Text : Leveraging Distributional Semantics for Natural Language Processing of Electronic Health Records
Sammanfattning : The large amounts of clinical data generated by electronic health record systems are an underutilized resource, which, if tapped, has enormous potential to improve health care. Since the majority of this data is in the form of unstructured text, which is challenging to analyze computationally, there is a need for sophisticated clinical language processing methods. LÄS MER
22. Interindividual Variability of Drug Transport Proteins : Focus on Intestinal Pgp (ABCB1) and BCRP (ABCG2)
Sammanfattning : The appearance of adverse drug reactions is a common reason for hospitalization in Western countries. Research on underlying biological mechanisms for interindividual variability in drug response aims to better identify patients with exceptional genetic traits, disease conditions or risk of drug-drug interactions and thereby help to prevent adverse drug reactions.

23. Sex differences in adverse drug events from cardiovascular medicines in routine care
Sammanfattning : In preventive drug treatment of cardiovascular disease, adverse drug effects often lead to suboptimal compliance with a risk of disability and shorter life expectancy. The overall aim of this thesis was to assess the nature and extent of adverse drug events (ADEs) from cardiovascular drugs in both women and men treated in routine care. LÄS MER
24. CYP2C-dependent drug metabolism in vivo : influence of genetics and drug interactions
Sammanfattning : Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) are responsible for the metabolism of the majority of therapeutic drugs. This thesis focuses on one of the CYP subfamilies, CYP2C, especially CYP2C9 and CYP2C19, which are responsible for the metabolism of 15– 20% of all drugs. All CYP2C enzymes are polymorphic, i.e. LÄS MER
25. Inappropriate prescribing, non-adherence to long-term medications and related morbidities : Pharmacoepidemiological aspects
Sammanfattning : Background: Inappropriate use of medications (IUM), in particular inappropriate prescribing and non-adherence to prescribed medications, are important causes of drug-related morbidities (DRMs). They are increasing problems with the ageing populations and the growing burden of chronic conditions. LÄS MER
