21. Cancer risks in Swedish pesticide applicators in agriculture, forestry and gardening : a toxicological and epidemiological approach
Sammanfattning : The aims of this thesis were (1) to study the cancer risks in Swedish pesticide applicators, which is one of the occupational groups that is most exposed to pesticides in Sweden. This could be done by utilizing a complete register kept by the Swedish Board of Agriculture which include 20,245 subjects with licenses issued between 1965 and 1976, for epidemiological studies.

22. Quality of life in patients with malignant blood disorders : a clinical and methodological study
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to evaluate and, improve measurements of, health-related quality of life (HRQL) in patients with malignant blood disorders. Patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation (SCT), long-term (>5 years) survivors of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) and a randomly selected control group were studied. LÄS MER
23. Expression and function of the small immune adaptor protein SAP
Sammanfattning : The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) carrier state is widespread in humans. Primary infection can cause infectious mononucleosis (IM) that presents with variable clinical severity, but almost always subsides. For 50% of boys with a rare hereditary immunodeficiency, X-linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP), primary infection with E13V has a fatal course. LÄS MER
24. Indicators of apoptosis and proliferation in haematological malignancies : with special reference to drug resistance and prognosis
Sammanfattning : Successful treatment of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (HG- NHL) is hampered by development of drug resistance. A better understanding of mechanisms responsible for drug resistance and the identification of factors that predict response to therapy is essential to improve treatment. LÄS MER
25. Epidemiological studies of host susceptibility in malignant lymphomas and colorectal cancer
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate the role of host susceptibility in malignant lymphomas and colorectal cancer. Specifically, the associations between infection and malignant lymphomas, skin cancer and survival from subsequent cancer, and the association between inflammatory bowel disease, familial disease, and colorectal cancer were assessed using Swedish population-based and nation-wide registers.
