    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; History; political history; social history; Bosnia and Herzegovina; World War II; slavic studies; genocide; mass killing; twentieth century; terror; demographics; Yugoslavia; Chetniks; Ustasha; Historia; History subjects; Historieämnen; Historia; History;

    Sammanfattning : This study analyses the mechanisms of local mass violence perpetrated by the Croatian fascist Ustasha organisation and the Serbian nationalist Chetniks in Bosnia and Herzegovina during 1941–42. A theoretical and methodological model has been devised, that is based on an investigation the three “dimensions” of mass killing, namely intent, systematics and magnitude. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Proteome-wide analysis of severe bacterial infections. The battle between host and pathogen

    Författare :Anahita Bakochi; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Proteomics; Mass Spectrometry; Systems biology; Host adaptation; Meningitis; Streptococcus pneumoniae;

    Sammanfattning : The pathogenesis of severe infectious diseases is a complex interplay between the host and the pathogen. The development and progression of a disease encompasses a multitude of processes, which balance between host-damage and host-protection. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Salvadora persica (MISWAK) : an effective way of killing oral pathogens

    Författare :Abier Hamed Sofrata; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Miswak; Salvadora persica; chewing stick; traditional medicine; gingivitis; periodontitis; dental plaque; plaque pH; salivary flow; acid production; microelectrodes; oral hygiene; subgingival microbiota; antibacterial agent; isothiocyanate; chromatography; Porphyromonas gingivalis; Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans;

    Sammanfattning : Mechanical removal of dental plaque is regarded as an effective means of controlling the progression of dental caries and periodontal disease. The habitual use of chewing sticks (Miswak) as an oral hygiene method is still wildly spread throughout parts of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. LÄS MER

  4. 4. On ionising radiation and breast cancer risk

    Författare :Anders Mattsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :ionising radiation; breast cancer induction; cancer induction; risk models; risk modification; pooled analysis; mammmographic screening; gained lost years of life;

    Sammanfattning : Background: It is well known that exposure to ionising radiation increases the risk for breast cancer occurrence. However, better understanding of breast cancer risks in terms of dose-response relationships formulated according to radiobiological target theories, age-at-exposure patterns and temporal dependence are important for the understanding of the underlying biological mechanism of radiation carcinogenesis as well as for the concern about possible risks associated with the very low doses received from routine mammographic screening.

  5. 5. Antimicrobial polypeptides and lipids as a part of innate defense mechanism of fish and human fetus

    Författare :Gudmundur Bergsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Animals are constantly threatened by vast numbers of microbes and have consequently evolved an array of strategies to prevent microbial invasion. In this thesis, I have studied natural antimicrobial lipids and polypeptides associated with immediate host defense. LÄS MER
