Sammanfattning : Background: The burden of burn injuries is in developing countries, the majority of deaths (98%) related to fire burns are in developing countries.These injuries are associated with poverty and are mainly related to accidents with fires in the home environment. LÄS MER
2. Primary HIV-1 infection : diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic aspects
Sammanfattning : Primary HIV-1 infection (PHI) is usually defined as a mononucleosis-like illness associated with seroconversion to HIV. In earlier studies using 1st generation antibody tests, the duration of the 'window period' from infection to detection of specific HIV-antibodies, could be 2 to 3 months, or longer. LÄS MER
3. Mechanisms underlying impaired humoral immunity in primary and chronic HIV-1 infection
Sammanfattning : B cells of HIV-1-infected patients have both phenotypic and functional dysfunctions which may be important in HIV-1 pathogenesis. Immune activation during HIV infection is an essential part of the body s defense against the virus, but may be the root cause of B cell dysfunctions. LÄS MER

5. Development of novel molecular and microfluidics tools for identification and characterization of latent HIV-1 reservoir
Sammanfattning : The existence of latent HIV-1 reservoir (LR) in all HIV-1 infected patients serves as a major obstacle to completely cure HIV-1 infection. However, up to now there is still no available assay that provides an accurate measurement of the reservoir size. LÄS MER
