  1. 1. Improved diagnosis and prediction of community-acquired pneumonia

    Författare :Alicia Edin; Anders F. Johansson; Anders Sjöstedt; Annika Allard; Thomas Schön; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Community-acquired pneumonia; infection; diagnosis; qPCR; metabolites; metabolomics;

    Sammanfattning : Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although there is wide variation in the microbial etiology, CAP may manifest with similar symptoms, making institution of proper treatment challenging. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Sex differences in immune response and sex hormone receptor expression in healthy individuals and during viral infection

    Författare :Peik M. A. Brundin; Anders F. Johansson; Ivan Nalvarte; Carl-Johan Treutiger; Umeå universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : There is sex-bias in morbidity and mortality from infectious diseases. Infections kill more men than women and several studies have pointed out differences in the immune system as a reason. The sex hormones estrogen, progesterone and testosterone all shape the effect of the immune response on multiple levels. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Francisella tularensis: persistence, dissemination and source attribution : a theoretical and computational approach

    Författare :Chinmay Kumar Dwibedi; Anders Johansson; Pär Larsson; Markus Antwerpen; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Francisella; genomics; evolution; microbial forensics; dispersal; persistence; mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : The bacterium Francisella tularensis causing tularemia in humans and other mammals displays little genetic diversity among genomes across temporal and spatial scales. F. tularensis infects humans with an extremely low infectious dose and causes natural seasonal tularemia outbreaks. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Genetic genealogy and epidemiology of Francisella

    Författare :Kerstin Svensson; Anders Johansson; Mats Forsman; Sam R. Telford III; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Francisella tularensis; tularemia; genotyping; epidemiology; GIS; Infectious diseases; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious Diseases; infektionssjukdomar;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is about analyzing genetic differences among isolates of Francisella tularensis – the tularemia-causing bacterium. To elucidate how these bacterial isolates are related, and their geographical and genetic origins, I have developed typing assays for Francisella and used them to study the epidemiology of tularemia.

  5. 5. Materiella vändningar : läsningar av Parland, Lispector, Berg och Byggmästar

    Författare :Jenny Jarlsdotter Wikström; Maria Jönsson; Elisabeth Friis; Sven Anders Johansson; Amelie Björck; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; The material turn; feminist new materialism; posthumanism; critical plant studies; ecocriticism; object-oriented ontology; queer ecocriticism; Henry Parland; Clarice Lispector; Aase Berg; Eva-Stina Byggmästar; Den materiella vändningen; Henry Parland; Clarice Lispector; Aase Berg; Eva-Stina Byggmästar; feministisk nymaterialism; posthumanism; kritiska växtstudier; ekokritik; objektorienterad ontologi; queer ekokritik; Literature; litteraturvetenskap; genusvetenskap; gender studies;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the dissertation is to examine the analytical potential of  the ”material turn” within the field of literary studies. In particular, it explores how theoretical perspectives associated with the material turn may shed light on the work of four writers: Henry Parland (Finland, 1908–1930), Clarice Lispector (Brazil, 1920–1977), Aase Berg (Sweden, b.
