21. Passive immunotherpay and probiotic agents in enteric infections in children
Sammanfattning : Diarrhoeal disease remains one of the leading causes of global childhood morbidity and mortality. Rotavirus and pathogenic Escherichia coli are the most common causes of acute diarrheal illness in children. LÄS MER
22. Acute gastroenteritis in Rwandan children under five years of age investigated by real-time PCR
Sammanfattning : Acute gastroenteritis is a major cause of illness and death among children in developing countries. Knowledge about the aetiology is important to make the right priorities regarding preventive measures, and for the recommendation to use or not use antibiotics. LÄS MER
23. Targeting of viral proteins to axons and dendrites
Sammanfattning : In the thesis distribution of different proteins of enveloped and non-enveloped viruses was studied in neurons, which are polarized cells with an axonal and a somatodendritic domain. Such studies may give better insight not only into virus spread within neuronal populations and selective changes in infected neurons as a consequence of the spread, but they may also contribute to an understanding of the basic sorting mechanisms, which are responsible for asymmetric targeting of macromolecules to the pre- and postsynaptic regions in a nerve cell.

24. Children's diarrhea in Hanoi, Vietnam : importance of enteric pathogens
Sammanfattning : Diarrhea is one of the leading causes of illnesses and death among children in developing countries, where an estimated 1.3 billion episodes and 4 to 10 million deaths occur each year in children less than 5 years of age. LÄS MER
25. Dynamic Modelling of Communicable and Non-Communicable Diseases
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of two papers dealing with the stochastic dynamic modelling of one communicable and one non-communicable disease respectively. In the first paper we derive a patient- and organ-specific measure for the estimated negative side effects of radiotherapy using a stochastic logistic birth-death process. LÄS MER
