1. Spray-Wall Interaction of Diesel Sprays
Sammanfattning : A promising combustion concept that aims at reducing emissions from DI Diesel engines is HCCI (Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition). To achieve a combustible air/fuel mixture in such an engine one possible strategy is early fuel injection during the compression stroke, even though the in-cylinder conditions are different from those in conventional DI diesel engines.

2. Systemic and local regulation of experimental arthritis by IFN-α, dendritic cells and uridine
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we have studied the immunological processes of joint inflammation that may be targets for future treatment of patients with arthritis. We focus on the immune-modulating properties of interferon-α (IFN-α) and uridine in experimental arthritis. LÄS MER
3. Diagnostic and prognostic potential of joint imaging in patients with anti-citrullinated protein antibodies
Sammanfattning : The introduction of novel therapeutic strategies set new goals for the patients’ outcome, which aims to achieve remission. This goal requires early diagnosis of RA and prompt efficient pharmacotherapy. The introduction of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) two decades ago allowed an earlier RA diagnosis. LÄS MER
