1. Cardiometabolic risk indicators in bipolar disorders
Sammanfattning : In addition to disabling mood episodes, bipolar disorders (BDs) predispose individuals to high cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. This thesis explores the association between BDs and the metabolic risk indicators body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), blood pressure, and lipid profile. LÄS MER
2. Role of birds in the biology of Lyme disease Borrelia
Sammanfattning : Lyme disease is a tick-transmitted illness caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.), a group of spirochetes with at least three human pathogenic species, B. burgdorferi sensu stricto, B. LÄS MER
3. Experimental Observations and Theoretical Modeling of Lightning Interaction with Tall Objects
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates various discharge processes associated with upward lightning initiated from tall objects, both experimentally and theoretically, trying to bridge the knowledge-gap in understanding the mechanisms of the phenomena.Upward lightning initiation has attracted a great deal of interest during recent years due to the proliferation of tall communication towers and wind turbines.

4. Engineered ion-bombardment as a tool in thin film deposition
Sammanfattning : Energetic-ion bombardment has become an attractive route to modify the crystal growth and deposit high quality thin films. In high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) where the discharge is characterized by a significant amount of ions of the sputter-ejected atoms, energetic-ion bombardment effects could not be underestimated.

5. On Neuroimmunology and Brain Function: Experimental and Clinical Studies
Sammanfattning : The immune system has been implicated in the mechanisms underlying many psychiatric disorders. Immune mediators are expressed in the central nervous system (CNS) not only in response to harmful stimuli, but also in a constitutive manner, and serve as important plasticity factors during development.
