To expand our knowledge of the genomic diversity of human papillomaviruses (HPVs), we searched for new HPVs in squamous cell carcinomas of the skin (SCC) and seemingly HPV-negative, otherwise typically HPV-associated lesions. We describe the characterization of three novel HPV types. HPV109 was isolated from an SCC, HPV112 from a condyloma and HPV114 from a low-grade cervical lesion. Pairwise alig

A qualitative pilot study on the attitudes of some citizens in southern Sweden toward predictive genetic testing – and a quantitative nation wide opinion poll targeting the same issues, was initiated by the Cultural Scientific Research Team of BAGADILICO. The latter is an international biomedical research environment on neurological disease at Lund University. The data of the two studies crystalli
In order to investigate how well-being and ill health is affected by the process of aging, the main aim was to investigate these self-perceived aspects of health over a 10-year period among older Swedish adults. The aim was also to study how these aspects correlated with objectively assessed functional limitations, use of mobility device, person-environment (P-E) fit (also denoted accessibility),
How can we understand the multi-ethnic workplace as a social meeting place? And what happens if we do not 'frame' in advance the social meeting in the widespread anti-racist frame of understanding? These are the questions that are central to this thesis. Starting from a phenomenological methodology, it is the ambition of the thesis to challenge our usual preconceptions and not pre-define how inter
Att forska med och om ungdomar och i skolan är spännande och skrämmande. När jag forskade om ungdomar i en tysk (och sedan även i en kanadensisk) skola hade jag bestämt mig för att inte komma ut i forskningsprocessen. Vad jag inte hade väntat mig var hur det kändes att återigen befinna sig ’i garderoben’, som jag dessutom kom att reproducera. Det var å andra sidan väldigt produktivt forskningsmäss
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a new technical equipment for continuous recording of human fetal scalp temperature in labor.DESIGN: Experimental animal study.METHODS: Two temperature sensors were placed subcutaneously and intracranially on the forehead of 10 fetal lambs and connected to a temperature monitoring system. The system records temperatures simultaneously on-line and stores data to be analyzed o
Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome has been associated with dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway. In this study, a novel heterozygous C3 mutation was identified in a factor B-binding region in exon 41, V1636A (4973 T > C). The mutation was found in three family members affected with late-onset atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome and symptoms of glomerulonephritis. All three patients
Preventing haemarthroses and arthropathy is a major challenge in patients with haemophilia and inhibitors, as treatment options are limited. One potential strategy is short-term episodic prophylaxis, which extends bypassing agent therapy beyond the resolution of bleeding to include the post-bleed inflammatory phase. At the 13(th) Zürich Haemophilia Forum, an expert panel reviewed the rationale beh
Popular Abstract in English Human life in general, depends on having access to useable forms of energy for meeting the basic needs such as preparation of food and provision a comfortable place to live. Energy is also necessary for running the societal services for instance, transportation, health care and education. It is important to know what energy resources are available, how much energy is nEnergy is among the main driving forces needed for sustainable development. Provision of energy services, from the supply side to transmission/distribution and use, must include management, and good management requires tools. Energy planning is a tool for managing the community energy system through assessing and balancing supply and demand. This thesis explains an approach to energy planning whic
