  1. 31. Achilles Tendon Ruptures Predictors; functional and economic impact

    Författare :Olof Westin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Achilles tendon rupture; re-rupture; predictors of outcome; health economics; Achilles tendon Total Rupture Score ATRS ;

    Sammanfattning : Acute Achilles tendon rupture is a common injury, which leads to significant morbidity in patients. Many patients never recover their full function even after long rehabilitation, whereas others make a good recovery. The factors behind this are unknown. The optimal treatment strategy, whether or not to treat surgically, is still controversial. LÄS MER

  2. 32. The elite cross-country skier : clinical and sports related functional tests, dance training, injuries and self-related health

    Författare :Marie Alricsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The general aim of this thesis was to study cross-country skiers regarding the effect of dance training on joint mobility and muscle flexibility of the spine, hip and ankle and on speed and agility. Another aim was to perform test-retests of joint mobility and muscle flexibility of the hip and of sports related functional tests. LÄS MER

  3. 33. Cognitive function, quality of life and functional brain networks : before and after glioma surgery

    Författare :Mattias Stålnacke; Rickard L. Sjöberg; Tommy Bergenheim; Johan Eriksson; Kenneth Hugdahl; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glioma; Neuropsychology; Neurosurgery; Quality of life; Supplementary Motor Area; Primary motor area. rsfMRI; fMRI; neurokirurgi; Neurosurgery; Oncology; onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate how cognitive function and quality of life are affected by glioma surgery in the supplementary motor area (SMA) and the lower primary motor cortex (M1), as well as to explore possible changes in functional network connectivity after surgery in the SMA.Sixteen patients subject to resective neurosurgical procedures due to gliomas in either the SMA or the M1 were studied.

  4. 34. Sample-to-answer paper-based nucleic acid amplification tests

    Författare :Georgios Chondrogiannis; Mahiar Hamedi; Jeff Mold; Keith Pardee; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests (NAATs) with PCR technology to amplify DNA, are the golden standard for infectious disease diagnostics, but they require benchtop instruments and trained users to be performed. For this reason, we all had to send PCR test to centralized laboratories during the Covid-19 pandemic. LÄS MER

  5. 35. Structural and functional studies of Malassezia sympodialis-derived allergens

    Författare :Monica Vilhelmsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Atopic eczema (AE) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterised by pruritic (itchy) skin lesions. The pathogenic mechanisms underlying AE are still unclear, although several factors such as genetic predisposition, a dysfunctional skin barrier, exposure to environmental allergens and skin colonisation with microorganisms appear to be of importance.
