1. Novel risk factors for atrial fibrillation in an urban population
Sammanfattning : Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia in the general population, and a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Low-grade inflammation, erythrocyte volume variation, and subclinical atherosclerosis have repeatedly been associated with cardiovascular disease, but it remains unclear whether these risk factors are also associated with incident AF.

2. Studies on the structure of human ceruloplasmin
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
3. Inflammatory status in adolescents : the impact of health determinants such as overweight and fitness
Sammanfattning : Overweight prevalences are rising among youth and the prevention of associated chronic diseases is priority concern in public health. Inflammatory processes are involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases and may also play an important initiating role in the development of the cardiovascular lesion. LÄS MER
4. Blue copper proteins as bioelements for bioelectronic devices
Sammanfattning : This thesis is focused on bioelements for biological electric power sources,specifically, on blue copper proteins with and without an intrinsic biocatalyticactivity, i.e. ability to reduce oxygen directly to water. These proteins, viz. LÄS MER
5. Cell-protein-material Interactions on Bioceramics and Model Surfaces
Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis was to investigate and characterize the interaction between blood proteins and different surfaces with emphasis on protein adsorption to bioceramics and model surfaces. Special effort was made to monitor the spontaneous and selective adsorption of proteins from human plasma and to examine the orientation, conformation and functional behavior of single proteins after adsorption.
