21. Colonoscopic surveillance in familial colorectal cancer
Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a disease with a high and rising incidence in the industrialized countries. It is the third leading cause of death among cancers in Sweden and the forth worldwide. Important etiological factors are both environmental and lifestyle as well as heritable factors. LÄS MER
22. Cardiovascular disease prevention in Cochabamba, Bolivia : the importance of preventable risk factor distribution and inequalities for policy implementation
Sammanfattning : Background: The increase in the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and cardiovascular risk factors (CVRFs) is considered one of the most important public health problems in Latin American (LA) countries. Accordingly, an accurate and comprehensive picture of the CVRFs situation is needed to prevent CVDs and consequently support the development of health policies to improve population health and reduce health inequalities.

23. Soluble intercellular and vascular cell adhesion molecules-1 in lymphoid neoplasms : A clinical and prognostic study of Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and chronic B-lymphocytic leukaemia
Sammanfattning : The interaction of soluble adhesion molecules with adhesion ligands expressed by immunological cells interfere with the cell-cell adhesion essential for the signal transductions that initiate immunological responses. Preliminary data suggest that soluble adhesion molecules also promote angiogenesis. LÄS MER
24. Next Generation Sequencing for Measurable Residual Disease Detection in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Sammanfattning : Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common form of acute leukemia and generally associated with a poor prognosis. For both children and adults, the treatment is based on chemotherapy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (alloHCT) is reserved for patients with intermediate or high risk of relapse, due to its associated risks. LÄS MER
25. Stochastic dynamic modelling and statistical analysis of infectious disease spread and cancer treatment
Sammanfattning : Mathematical models have proven valuable for public health decision makers as they can provide insights into the understanding, control and, ultimately, the prevention of diseases. This thesis contains four manuscripts dealing with stochastic dynamic modelling and statistical analysis of infectious disease spread and optimization of cancer treatment. LÄS MER
