16. Reproductive Factors and Breast Cancer - Parity, Breastfeeding and Genetic Predisposition in Relation to Risk and Prognosis
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to study reproductive factors and genetic polymorphisms in relation to breast cancer risk and survival. An important component of this was to investigate the risk of specific breast cancer subgroups. LÄS MER
17. The Complex Genetics behind Neurodegeneration and Susceptibility to Parkinson’s disease
Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder and affects over 1% of people above the age of 65. This progressive and debilitating disease is usually thought of as a motor disease, with symptoms such as muscle rigidity, slowness of movement, and tremor at rest. LÄS MER
18. Enhancing prediction and causal inference in metabolic dyshomeostasis
Sammanfattning : This thesis is focused on two globally prevalent diseases: i) non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and ii) type 2 diabetes (T2D), with an overall aim of improving prediction and causal inference in the context of these conditions. Our projects were mainly conducted using IMI DIRECT and UK Biobank datasets including multi-omics data, extensive environmental exposures, and biological intermediates. LÄS MER
19. Placental molecular mechanisms as pathways linking prenatal exposure to ambient air pollution to preeclampsia and fetal growth
Sammanfattning : Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is a “multifactorial syndrome” in which ambient air pollution may contribute to the etiology of PE. However, the underlying mechanism of this association is not clearly elucidated. LÄS MER
20. Circulatory Failure and Outcome in Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
Sammanfattning : Circulatory failure is considered one of the entities of the post cardiac arrest syndrome contributing to poor outcome. It is reported at 15-70% of all patients successfully resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). LÄS MER
