Colorectal cancer is the third most common type of cancer, and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the Western world. Chronic inflammation, such as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), increases the risk of cancer. Cysteinyl leukotrienes are pro-inflammatory mediators that are involved in IBD. They are ligands to the G-protein coupled receptors CysLT1R and CysLT2R, of which CysLT1R
Transcriptional factors of the GntR family regulate numerous physiological and morphological processes in response to the nutrient state of bacterial cells. The number of GntR transcriptional factors in genomes of soil-dwelling actinomycetes is one of the highest among bacteria, reflecting both the large size of their chromosomes and the complex ecological niche that they occupy. However, very lit
Popular Abstract in Swedish Socioekonomiska mönster av övervikt och fetma i Skåne, Sverige I världen idag är fetma och övervikt ett av de största hoten mot människors goda hälsa.

The obesity epidemic is caused by a widespread chronic energy imbalance between high-energy intake and low-energy expenditure, but this mechanism appears to be modified by a number of other biological, behavioral, and social factors that interact in a complicated manner. It has become a great challenge to understand the e

This master’s thesis is about public libraries and how the work they do for children and youth in the summer holidays relates to public policy and reading research. Triangulation of methods is used with literature review, policy analysis, questionnaire survey and interviews. My primary theoretical framework is Carol Bacchi’s ’What’s the problem represented to be’ (WPR) approach, which is also us
Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) are stars located in the Galactic halo travelling with extremely high speeds. They are produced when a binary approches the supermassive black hole (SMBH) in the Galactic Center (GC) and gets tidally broken up. In this process one of the stars is ejected with high velocity. The angle between the velocity of the incoming binary and the velocity of the ejected HVS is alm
Many of our cities have problems with air pollution and it have been shown to cause a lot of damage to human health. There are different kinds of air pollution, some are gaseous air pollutions like NOx or ground-level ozone and other air pollutions are particles. NOx forms in high temperatures from combustion processes like in a car motor. Ground-level ozone form in combination with NOx, hydrocarb
The famous problem of Canadian Literature in the contemporary critical landscape is how it, as an institution, denies all but certain kinds of identities. Alexander Beecroft suggests that a national literature, through its attempts to locate and articulate a communal identity and a notion of fellow-feeling, curates characteristics among members of previously numerous groups which can function to d
Centralt för uppsatsen är Leo-lagen som tillkom efter en företagsskandal på 1980-talet där ledande befattningshavare i AB Leo fått teckna aktier i bolaget till fördelaktiga villkor. Leo-lagen som nu återfinns i 16 kap. ABL stadgar att ett beslut om nyemission måste fattas av bolagsstämman med minst nio tiondelars majoritet om de som ska ha rätt att teckna aktier ingår i den av Leo-lagen utpekade fIn the centre of this paper is the 16 chapter of the Swedish Companies Act (Sw. aktiebolagslag (2005:551) (ABL)). The law was adopted after a big company scandal in Sweden during the 1980s where officials in the company where given shares at profitable terms.

Sustainable development “which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs,” (WCED 1987) is a global development objective of paramount importance. However, on the ground, ‘sustainable development’ is – in my experience – often little more than a buzzword for securing grants. From a strong sus-tainability standpoint, this thesis doc
All people, regardless of gender, are entitled to participate in cultural life. 41% of the permanent actors and actresses at the Royal Dramatic Theater in Stockholm are women. Only 34% of the Malmö Theater roles in 2009 went to actresses. There is a male norm, not only in Swedish society, but also in the Swedish theater. How does this norm look like and what methods are required to change it? Eve
Åberopandet av bevis i de svenska domstolarna styrs av principen om fri bevisföring, som ger parterna rätt att presentera de bevis de önskar, utan krav om att beviset ska ha tillkommit i enlighet med viss reglering. Från denna princip finns dock vissa undantag. Bevis som härstammar från en anonym källa har ansetts utgöra ett sådant undantag, på grund av oförenligheten med processrättens krav och pThe presenting of evidence within Swedish courts is controlled by the principle of free production of evidence, which gives the parties a right to refer to any evidence, without any requirements regarding its conception. There are however a few exceptions. Evidence originating from anonymous sources has been considered an exception, due to the discrepancy between such evidence and the principles o

Background: Apnea of prematurity is a common problem in preterm infants that may have significant consequences on their development. Methylxanthines (aminophylline, theophylline, and caffeine) are effective in the treatment of apnea of prematurity. Doxapram is used as a respiratory stimulant in cases refractory to the methylxanthine treatment. Objectives: To evaluate the benefits and harms of doxa
Autoantibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GADA) are found frequently in patients with autoimmune diabetes. Immunoglobulin (Ig)G(1) is the most frequent subclass among the GADA IgG subclasses. IgG(4) is a more common subclass in latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) at clinical onset compared to type 1 diabetes. The aim of this work was to study the different GADA-IgG subclass pr
BACKGROUND: Anisakis simplex (A.s.) allergy is an emerging disease. The third-stage larvae of this nematode are a source of hidden allergens in fish. There are no clear guidelines concerning dietary restrictions for patients with serum-specific IgE to this parasite. OBJECTIVE: To follow up the clinical data and immunological parameters of patients sensitized to A.s. during 6 to 23 months. METHODS:
