36. Beyond IT and Productivity : Effects of Digitized Information Flows in Health Care
Sammanfattning : Denna avhandling undersöker hur investeringar i IT, och digitaliseringen av informationsflöden, har påverkat produktiviteten inom sjukvården. Genom empiriska undersökningar av avgränsade sjukvårdsprocesser – samt diskussioner baserade på idéer och teorier relaterade till ekonomi, ”produktivitetsparadoxen”, så kallade General Purpose Technologies (GPTs), och medicinsk informatik – detekteras och analyseras effekter av digitaliseringen.

37. Towards Effortless Use of Information Technology in Home Healthcare with a Networked Digital Pen
Sammanfattning : When care is moved from the hospital to the home the demands for high quality care still remain. For problems arising from the geographical separation of patients and professional caregivers, information and communication technology may offer important solutions. LÄS MER
38. Novel Computational Analyses of Allergens for Improved Allergenicity Risk Assessment and Characterization of IgE Reactivity Relationships
Sammanfattning : Immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated allergy is a major and seemingly increasing health problem in the Western countries. The combined usage of databases of molecular and clinical information on allergens (allergenic proteins) as well as new experimental platforms capable of generating huge amounts of allergy-related data from a single blood test holds great potential to enhance our knowledge of this complex disease.

39. New targeted therapies for malignant neural tumors : From systematic discovery to zebrafish models
Sammanfattning : Cancers in the neural system presents a major health challenge. The most aggressive brain tumor in adults, glioblastoma, has a median survival of 15 months and few therapeutic options. High-risk neuroblastoma, a childhood tumor originating in the sympathetic nervous system, has a 5-year survival under 50%, despite extensive therapy. LÄS MER
40. Applications of Knowledge Discovery in Quality Registries - Predicting Recurrence of Breast Cancer and Analyzing Non-compliance with a Clinical Guideline
Sammanfattning : In medicine, data are produced from different sources and continuously stored in data depositories. Examples of these growing databases are quality registries. In Sweden, there are many cancer registries where data on cancer patients are gathered and recorded and are used mainly for reporting survival analyses to high level health authorities. LÄS MER
