  1. 1. Respiratory tract infections in primary care - aspects of diagnosis and treatment

    Författare :Karin Rystedt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Group A streptococci; Penicillin V; Phenoxymethylpenicillin; Rapid antigen detection test; Antimicrobial resistance; Faecal microbiota; C-reactive protein; Influenza-like illness; Influenza A; Primary care;

    Sammanfattning : Background Primary health care is accountable for most of the antibiotic prescriptions in humans. In Sweden, most of these antibiotics are used for respiratory tract infections, and pharyngotonsillitis (acute sore throat) is the single respiratory tract infection that leads to most antibiotic prescriptions.

  3. 2. Methods for detection of HIV-2/SIV infections

    Författare :Lilian Walther Jallow; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The main objective of this thesis was to develop and improve laboratory methods for detection of HIV-2 in infected humans and detection of HIV-2/SIV in experimentally infected cynomolgus monkeys. Early in the HIV epidemic no assays were commercially available for detection of HIV-2/SIV infections and laboratory testing often relied on cross-reactivity in the assays. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Design of a rapid point-of-care immunoassay : Based on a single-step non-competitive immunoassay with magnetic permeability detection

    Författare :Filiz Ibraimi; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Superparamagnetic nanoparticles; magnetic permeability; two-site immunoassay; point-of-care; diagnostic test; biomarkers;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the development of a one-step, specific, cost-effective and rapid in vitro point-of-care immunoassay test based on a unique magnetic immunoassay principle. The principle in question is based on a non-competitive heterogeneous immunoassay in a one-step analysis, relying on magnetic permeability detection. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Tuberculosis case finding in HIV-positive adults receiving care at health centres in Ethiopia

    Författare :Taye Balcha; Enheten för infektionssjukdomar; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HIV; Case detection; Treatment outcome; Health centres; Ethiopia.;

    Sammanfattning : Rapid, accurate diagnosis and management of TB in HIV-positive individuals is critical for the success of antiretroviral treatment programmes in primary health care in Sub-Saharan Africa. These studies aim to develop and evaluate methods for TB case finding in adults receiving care at Ethiopian health centres. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Rapid microbiological diagnosis of infections in sterile body fluids including blood

    Författare :Osman Altun; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Infections of normally sterile body fluids (SBF) including blood, cerebrospinal-, pleural-, peritoneal-, pericardial and synovial fluid are critical and require early diagnosis and rapid initiation of appropriate antimicrobial therapy. With the advanced and invasive care of modern medicine, infections of SBF are increasing worldwide. LÄS MER
