    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to examine what happens when three-year-olds are given access to digital cameras, and what shape and form children’s photographic capacity takes within the framework of everyday pre-school activities. The notion that young children in pre-school rarely get to use cameras themselves, and that they take part in photographs produced by pre-school educators as part of an ongoing documenting practice rooted in the curriculum is the point of departure.

  2. 22. Neuroblastoma as a target for effector mechanisms of the immune system

    Författare :Anna De Geer; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common solid extracranial tumor in children. Despite intensive multimodal treatment, the prognosis for high-risk NB patients remains poor and therefore new treatment modalities are needed. The main aim of my studies was to assess NB as a target for cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated immunotherapy. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Intravenous induction of anaesthesia in children : aspects on propofol and etomidate

    Författare :Yvonne Nyman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Propofol is today the most commonly used drug for induction of anaesthesia and for short-term sedation. However, one specific problem is that intravenous injection of propofol often results in quite severe injection pain, which in the paediatric population is a serious clinical dilemma. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Intracellular free amino acids and nutritional status in children with chronic renal failure on different treatments

    Författare :Alberto Canepa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Chronic renal failure; transplantation; nutritional status; children; amino acids; plasma muscle; polymorphonuclear granulocytes; proteolysis; red blood cells;

    Sammanfattning : In untreated adult patients with chronic renal failure (CRF), and in chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and kidney-transplanted patients, typical plasma and muscle intracellular amino acid (AA) patterns have been described. Similar AA abnormalities to those seen in adult patients have been observed in plasma and muscle tissue of children with CRF, but no studies have been undertaken to evaluate the AA levels in plasma and muscle in children on CAPD or after kidney transplantation.

  5. 25. Cell death mechanisms of anti-cancer agents and treatment response in acute leukemia

    Författare :Edward Laane; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :acute leukemia; glucocorticoids; doxorubicin; apoptosis; autophagy; minimal residual disease; dendritic cells;

    Sammanfattning : Acute leukemia (AL) is a fatal disease, which causes rapid death in the absence of appropriate chemotherapeutic intervention. Long-term survival rates vary from 80% in childhood lymphoblastic AL (ALL) to 10-20% in adult myeloid AL (AML). LÄS MER
