    Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer globally, with approximately 1.2 million new cases every year. The highest incidence rates are seen in developed countries, thereby imposing dietary and lifestyle factors in the etiology of CRC. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Sex and symbionts : New discoveries in local and regional patterns of coral ecology and reproduction

    Författare :Micaela Hellström; Michael Tedengren; Mats Grahn; John A. H. Benzie; Nancy Knowlton; Stockholms universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Coral reefs belong to the most diverse and the most threatened ecosystems on earth. Anthropogenic stressors and climate change have led to mortalities at levels unprecedented in modern times. The aims of this thesis are to investigate aspects of the corals’ ability to reproduce, disperse, adapt and survive. LÄS MER

  4. 13. The alluring nature of episodic odor memory : Sensory and cognitive correlates across age and sex

    Författare :Christina Blåvarg; Peter Juslin; Mats J. Olsson; Steven Nordin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Olfaction; Age; Sex; Episodic odor memory; Odor identification; Recollective experience; Hedonic; Healthy; Adults; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Episodic memory for olfactory information is still relatively uncharted. The overall purpose of this thesis is to investigate the sensory and cognitive causes of the well-established age-related decline in olfactory episodic odor memory and of the age-independent sex difference in olfactory episodic memory.

    Sammanfattning : Background.  Sepsis is a syndrome associated with high mortality rates, substantial morbidity and high costs of care. The incidents of sepsis is reported to be high and controversy exists whether gender affect severity or outcome. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Growth factors in spermatogenesis

    Författare :Aida Wahlgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Testis; seminiferous tubules; proliferation; growth factors; sex steroids;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to increase the knowledge of die effects of locally produced growth factors and hormones on germ cell proliferation in rat testis in vitro. Since impaired sperm production and function accounts for half the cases of infertility, it is important to understand the physiological actions in germ cell development. LÄS MER
