  1. 1. Towards Improved Diagnostics and Monitoring in Childhood Asthma : Methodological and Clinical Aspects of Exhaled NO and Forced Oscillation Technique

    Författare :Charlotte Heijkenskjöld Rentzhog; Malinovschi Andrei; Lennart Nordvall; Kjell Alving; Lauri Lehtimäki; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; asthma; children; exhaled NO; forced oscillation technique; airway inflammation; small airways; asthma diagnostics; Pediatrik; Pediatrics; Lungmedicin; Lung Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Asthma is a heterogeneous disease. Diagnosis relies on symptom evaluation and lung function tests using spirometry. Symptoms can be vague. Spirometry is effort-dependent and does not reliably evaluate small airways. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Neuroborreliosis in childhood : Clinical, immunological and diagnostic aspects

    Författare :Barbro Hedin Skogman; Pia Forsberg; Jan Ernerudh; Birger Trollfors; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neuroborreliosis; Immune response; Diagnostics; Children; Lyme Borreliosis; Paediatric medicine; Pediatrisk medicin;

    Sammanfattning : Lyme Borreliosisis is a multi-organ infectious disease caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi. The spirochete is transmitted to humans by tick bites. Neuroborreliosis (NB) is a disseminated form of the disease, in which the spirochetes invade the nervous system. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Study of Resistance in Hepatitis C Virus Prior to Treatment with Direct Acting Antivirals

    Författare :Midori Kjellin; Johan Lennerstrand; Nina Weis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hepatitis C; HCV; DAA; RAS; resistance-associated substitution; baseline resistance; NS5A; NS3; SVR; Medical Virology; Medicinsk virologi; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious Diseases;

    Sammanfattning : The rapid advancement of Hepatitis C (HCV) treatment presents a great challenge to clinicians in optimising therapy for their patients. Genotype (GT), efficacy, side-effects, drug combinations and treatment durations must be tailored to individual patients, considering comorbidities, degree of fibrosis, adherence and antiviral resistance.

  5. 4. Spatial immune analyses in clinical cancer tissue

    Författare :Max Backman; Patrick Micke; Fredrik Pontén; Johan Botling; Kurt Schalper; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; immune landscape; non-small cell lung cancer; immune cells; multiplex immunofluorescence; spatial analysis; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is a leading cause of premature death and lung cancer is the deadliest cancer type, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) representing 85% of lung cancer cases. Despite promising development in cancer treatment in recent decades, overall prognosis is poor. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Advancing isothermal nucleic acid amplification tests : Towards democratization of diagnostics

    Författare :Felix Neumann; Mats Nilsson; Paul Yager; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; molecular diagnostics; infectious diseases; point-of-care; digital quantification; fluorescence detection; rolling circle amplification; padlock probes; microfluidic enrichment; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Modern healthcare is the result of scientific advancement across disciplines and has enabled us to understand the rationale behind many diseases and how to treat or cure them; but still a myriad of unanswered questions remains. Especially infectious diseases play an important role in healthcare as they pose a constant threat for global health and well-being. LÄS MER
