  1. 1. On the necessity of screening and national registration of congenital cataracts

    Författare :Gunilla Magnusson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :congenital cataract; glaucoma; intraocular surgery; posterior capsular opacification PCO ; prevalence; visual acuity VA ; visual impairment; screening; newborn examination; blindness prevention; cost-utility analysis; quality- adjusted life year QALY ;

    Sammanfattning : Objectives: The overall aim of this thesis was to contribute to improvements in the management of congenital cataract by defining the most efficient screening procedure, examining the magnitude of the morbidity rate, optimizing the timing of surgery by relating surgical outcome to age at intervention and severity of visual deprivation and furthermore by evaluating costs versus consequences of introducing the most efficient screening procedure found, on a national basis.Methods: Paper I: 72 children born between 1992 and 1998 in the Stockholm County Council region, Västra Götaland and Halland county, Linköping-Motala, Malmö, and Lund, who had surgery for congenital cataract before the age of one year were included in a retrospective study.

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to study the effects of endogenous and exogenous hormones and mammographic breast density (BD) on cellular markers in non-cancerous female breast tissue. Women on the waiting list for breast reduction plastic surgery were recruited (n = 79), and randomized to 2 months of hormone therapy or no therapy before surgery. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Functional Studies of Collagen-Binding Integrins α2β1 and α11β1 : Interplay between Integrins and Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptors

    Författare :Gunilla Grundström; Kristofer Rubin; Karl-Eric Magnusson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Integrins are heterodimeric cell surface receptors, composed of an α- and a β-subunit, which mediate cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions. Integrins mediate intracellular signals in response to extracellular stimuli, and cooperate with growth factor and other cytokine receptors. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Eczema in young children : aspects of clinical investigation and treatment

    Författare :Gunilla Norrman; Karin Fälth-Magnusson; Magnus Borres; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; allergy; eczema; skin tests; food allergy; food challenge; IgG4; IgE; elimination diet; SCORAD; children; infants; adolescents; Allergology; Allergologi;

    Sammanfattning : Bakgrund: Eksem förekommer hos 10-20% av barn i hela världen. En tredjedel av barnen med eksem har födoämnesallergi. Hos de flesta växer födoämnesallergin bort innan skolåldern. Förbättrat kliniskt omhändertagande och bättre förståelse av hur klinisk tolerans uppkommer är viktiga mål för forskning inom barnmedicin. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Towards Digital Product-Service Platforms in Manufacturing Firms : Exploring Organizational and Managerial Aspects

    Författare :Johan Simonsson; Mats Magnusson; Gunilla Sandström; Anders Johansson; Anna Öhrwall Rönnbäck; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Keywords: Servitization; product-service system; digitalization; digital transformation; platform;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is positioned at the intersection of product and service development and enabling digital technologies in the context of incumbent manufacturing firms. When these concepts are blended together into digital product-service systems, value growth and business model innovation may be achieved. LÄS MER
