  1. 21. Neutropenic fever during treatment of hematological malignancy : etiology and diagnostics

    Författare :Lennart Persson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Fever is the principal and sometimes the only manifestation of serious infection in the neutropenic patient because signs of inflammation may be minimal or absent in this group of patients. The aim of this thesis was to improve the clinical management of the febrile neutropenic patient. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Herpes Simplex Virus 1 DNA replication and its role in recombination and transcription

    Författare :Ka-Wei Tang; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Herpes Simplex Virus 1; DNA replication; DNA recombination; Transcription;

    Sammanfattning : Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is one of nine different herpesvirus infecting man. They are all capable of establishing a life-long latent state following the primary infection. HSV-1 as well as other herpesviruses may reactivate from the latent state and give rise to a productive infection with clinical symptoms or asymptomatic shedding. LÄS MER

  4. 23. NK cell recognition of herpesviruses : mechanisms of viral immune escape

    Författare :Alexander Rölle; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Herpesviruses are ubiquitous pathogens which after an often asymptomatic infection establish lifelong latency in the host. Control of the viral infection depends on both innate and adaptive immune system. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Usefulness of archival biobank samples for genetic epidemiologic studies

    Författare :Malin Sjöholm; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :formailn-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue; biobank; serum; dried blood spots; plasma; archival samples;

    Sammanfattning : Sweden has a long history of maintaining population-based registries and biobanks. This has resulted in large sample collections with long follow-up and large numbers of prospectively occurring disease endpoints providing an extensive resource for genetic research. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Cytomegalovirus Infection in Immunocompetent and Renal Transplant Patients : Clinical Aspects and T-cell Specific Immunity

    Författare :Fredrik Sund; Britt-Marie Eriksson; Olle Korsgren; Halvor Rollag; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cytomegalovirus; renal transplantation; cellular immunity; valacyclovir; mismatched; prophylaxis; tetramer; CD4 T cells; CD8 T cells; Infectious diseases; Infektionssjukdomar;

    Sammanfattning : Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a β-herpesvirus that, after primary infection, establishes a life-long persistence in the human host. Up to 90% of humans are infected with CMV, that is kept under control by CMV-specific CD8+ and CD4+ T cells. In patients with an impaired cellular immunity, however, CMV infections can be life-threatening. LÄS MER
