16. Human papillomaviruses of skin and genital lesions
Sammanfattning : Around 5% of all cancer cases worldwide are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) which has been established as the cause of cervical cancer and genital warts (condylomas). Cutaneous HPV types have been weakly associated with non-melanoma skin lesions such as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and actinic keratosis (AK). LÄS MER
17. Studies on the occurrence and effects of human papillomavirus in tumors of the head and neck
Sammanfattning : The presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) was first reported in 1985. Since then, this association has been studied intensively and today there is substantial evidence for HPV as a causative agent and positive prognostic factor for clinical outcome in tonsillar cancer, but the association to other HNSCC is still unclear.

18. Tonsillar cancer : incidence, prevalence of HPV and survival
Sammanfattning : Since human papilloma virus (HPV) in the mid 1980ies was first observed in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, its role and impact, especially on oral and oropharyngeal cancer, have attracted extensive interest. The aim of this thesis was to investigate if the clinical impression of increased incidence of tonsillar cancer was true, and if HPV could be linked to this increase. LÄS MER
19. Virus Host Interactions in SARS Coronavirus Infection
Sammanfattning : The global outbreak of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome which began in 2002 and ended in 2003 resulted in over 8000 cases in 29 countries, causing an atypical pneumonia which resulted in a case fatality rate of ~10%. The etiological agent of this disease was found to be a novel coronavirus dubbed SARS Coronavirus (SARS-CoV). LÄS MER
20. Automorphic forms and string theory: Small automorphic representations and non-perturbative effects
Sammanfattning : This compilation thesis stems from a project with the purpose of determining non-perturbative contributions to scattering amplitudes in string theory carrying important information about instantons, black hole quantum states and M-theory. The scattering amplitudes are functions on the moduli space invariant under the discrete U-duality group and this invariance is one of the defining properties of an automorphic form. LÄS MER
