   Sammanfattning : Bacterial adhesion to the bladder mucosa is a critical step for the establishment of Escherichia coli bacteriuria. The P-fimbriae, encoded by the pap gene cluster, are considered as virulence factors but the mechanisms have been debated. This study defined the roles for P fimbriation during the early colonization of the human urinary tract. LÄS MER

3. 12. Malaria in infants : asymptomatic and symptomatic infections the first year of life

   Författare :Akua Kyerewaa Botwe; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Malaria causes the majority of deaths in children below five years of age, but asymptomatic infections are more frequent. An understanding of the interplay of human and parasite factors which predispose to symptomatic malaria has guided clinical and preventive practices including intermittent preventive treatment and bed net usage, to reduce the global malaria burden.

4. 13. The mandibular third molar. Dentists' judgement in the removal of asymptomatic molars

   Författare :Kerstin Knutsson; Lunds universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; visual analogue scale; oral surgery; tooth extraction; third molar; linear models; judgment; Decision making; impacted tooth; Odontology; stomatology; Odontologi;

   Sammanfattning : The aim was to study dentists' judgement on the removal of and on the development of pathology associated with asymptomatic mandibular third molars. Thirty general dental practitioners (GDPs) and 10 oral surgeons were asked to judge 36 molars with equal distribution of three cues: patient's age, angular position and degree of impaction of the molar.

5. 14. Asymptomatic Bacteriuria. Protection against, and differential diagnosis towards symptomatic Urinary Tract Infection

   Författare :Fredrik Sundén; Helsingborg Kliniska Vetenskaper; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common infectious diseases in humans, with a subset of sus- ceptible individuals who experience recurrent episodes. e increase in antibiotic resistance in gram-negative uropathogens, due to antibiotic overuse, is a strong rationale for developing therapeutic alternatives and to improve diagnostics.

7. 15. Screening for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in Asymptomatic Children and Adolescents. Psychosocial consequences and impact on quality of life and physical activity

   Författare :Ewa-Lena Bratt; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Adolescents; Beta-blocker therapy; children; exercise performance; family screening; hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; parents experiences; psychosocial consequences; quality of life; transition;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to describe the consequences of being diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) while being asymptomatic, taking into consideration psychosocial effects and medical aspects of diagnosis and treatment. Methods: Quality of life (QoL) was measured according to Lindström before the diagnosis, and after two years, comparing with healthy controls. LÄS MER
