11. Exposures in utero and chronic disease : an alternative methodological approach
Sammanfattning : The aims of this thesis were to evaluate maternal and birth characteristics as risk factors for breast cancer and cardiovascular disease later in life, and to assess maternal serum concentrations of insulin-like growth factors in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia. Birth characteristics and risks of breast cancer were studied in a case-control study nested within the population-based Swedish Twin Register (Paper 1). LÄS MER

It manifests in diverse clinical and serological patterns and is considered to represent a prototype multisystemic autoimmune disease. The etiopathigenesis of SLE remains incompletely understood.

13. Carbon monoxide in biological systems : An experimental and clinical study
Sammanfattning : Background: Carbon monoxide (CO) is a toxic gas, but it is also produced endogenously when haem is degraded. When produced in vivo, CO is believed to have positive biological effects. For example it activates the production of cyclic guanosine mono-phosphate and causes vasodilatation. LÄS MER
14. Sex steroids and gene variants in bipolar disorder
Sammanfattning : Bipolar disorder is a chronic, cycling disorder affecting circa 2% of the population and whose pathophysiology is still largely unknown. It has been suggested that common treatments used for bipolar disorder have effects on the sex steroids yet sex steroids have also been shown to have widespread effects in the brain in systems of relevance to bipolar disorder.

15. Search for susceptibility loci and candidate genes for breast cancer
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most frequent cancer among women in the western world. Family history is a wellestablished and important risk factor for breast cancer. Both a population-based twin study and a study based on a large family cancer database have suggested that hereditary factors account for about a quarter of breast cancers. LÄS MER
