1. 1. “Sweat is weakness leaving the body” : A study on the self-presentational practices of sporty top managers in Sweden

   Författare :Janet Johansson; Torkild Thanem; Karin Berglund; Jenny Helin; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; sport; athleticism; self-expressive behaviours; self-presentation; företagsekonomi; Business Administration;

   Sammanfattning : Embracing the symbolic interactionist view of the notion of self, applying dramaturgical theories of self-presentation, this study unpacks the linkage between leaders’ lifestyle behaviours (in athletic endeavours) and the formation of their sense of self as occupants of the leadership role from a self-expressive perspective.  I conducted a study of a group of sporty top managers in Sweden.

   Sammanfattning : Excessive sweating may cause considerable disability, with psychological, social and occupational consequences. Primary hyperhidrosis may also play a key role in the pathogenesis of dyshidrotic dermatitis and some other skin diseases. LÄS MER

4. 3. Human secretoglobins in normal and neoplastic cells and tissues

   Författare :Anna Sjödin; Håkan Hedman; Roger Henriksson; Mårten Fernö; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; secretoglobins; mammaglobin; lipophilin; breast cancer; pituitary; sweat gland; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; onkologi; Oncology;

   Sammanfattning : Secretoglobins is a newly described polypeptide family that has gained a lot of interest in human cancer and inflammation research. Although the first secretoglobin polypeptide was discovered more than 30 years ago, their physiological function is still not known. LÄS MER

5. 4. Functional Aspects of Epithelia in Cystic Fibrosis and Asthma

   Författare :Zhanna Servetnyk; Godfried Roomans; Michael Wilschansky; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Cell biology; cystic fibrosis; CFTR; chloride transport; airway epithelium; sweat gland; asthma; corticosteroids; montelukast; Cellbiologi;

   Sammanfattning : The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), a cAMP activated chloride channel in the apical membrane of epithelial cells, is defective in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Research efforts are focused on chloride channel function in order to find a cure for the disease. LÄS MER

7. 5. Metal Particles – Hazard or Risk? Elaboration and Implementation of a Research Strategy from a Surface and Corrosion Perspective

   Sammanfattning : Do metal particles (including particles of pure metals, alloys, metal oxides and compounds) pose a hazard or risk to human health? In the light of this question, this thesis summarizes results from research conducted on metal particles, and describes the elaboration and implementation of an in vitro test methodology to study metal release from particles through corrosion and dissolution processes in synthetic biological media relevant for human exposure through inhalation/ingestion and dermal contact. Bioaccessible metals are defined as the pool of released metals from particles that potentially could be made available for absorption by humans or other organisms. LÄS MER
