Aspects on menstrual physiology, pathology and medical treatment of menorrhagia
(2003-11-07)
Menstruation is the monthly process by which the endometrium in fertile women is discarded if no pregnancy occurs. The physiology and pathology of menstruation has been extensively studied; still several steps are not fully ...
Deciphering mechanisms of transcriptional activation and repression in B lymphocytes
(2004-05-14)
regulated. Oct1 and Oct2, by altering their conformation upon binding to different cis sequences can differentially associate with the transcriptional co-repressor Grg4. A second method of complex formation with Grg4 is witnessed in the 3' enhancer...
New evidence on germ-cell testicular cancer aetiology
(2004-01-09)
and later periods in life, such as childhood and adolescence, are important time windows for determining lifetime risk for testicular cancer.
A case-control study, including 3,051 cases and 9,007 controls born in Sweden after 1940, was carried out using...
Significance of polymorphisms in human xenobiotic metabolising enzymes
(2002-12-20)
Cigarette smoke is the primary cause of lung cancer but urban air pollution and certain occupational exposures have also been found to elevate the incidence of lung cancer. These exposures contain polycyclic aromatic ...
Molecular studies of Wig-1, a p53-induced zinc finger protein
(2003-11-14)
previously used the PCR-based differential display technique to identify mRNAs induced by wild type p53 expressed from the temperature-sensitive Val-135 mouse mutant p53 construct in J3D mouse T lymphoma cells. This system led us to the identification of a...

The aim of the thesis is 1) to assess equity in the provision, financing and utilization of health services in the study counties, after the launching of the Chinese health reform, in relation to income and health status, ...
On transplantation of fetal ventral mesencephalon with focus on dopaminergic nerve fiber formation
(2002-04-11)
Poor cell survival and striatal reinnervation are two of the postulated limiting factors of fetal ventral mesencephalic (VM) grafting in Parkinson's disease. It has, however, been reported that an increased survival of VM ...
Gene mapping of atopic dermatitis
(2001-11-14)
in 109 pedigrees forming 193 full-sib pairs and 9 half-sib pairs affected with atopic dermatitis. In total, five chromosome regions reaching the level for suggestive linkage (p<7.4x10-4) were identified. Four of these chromosome regions: 3q, 13q14, 15q14...
Central venous access devices in patients with haematological malignancies care, complications and home treatment
(2002-12-27)
A well functioning central venous access device (CVAD) that will remain in situ free from complications during the entire treatment period, is highly desirable in the management of patients with aggressive haematological ...
Immunological studies in the brain and signaling pathways in experimental African trypanosomiasis
(2001-11-23)
African Trypanosomiasis is a disease prevalent among humans and animals in tropical Africa which is caused by the extracellular hemoflagellate Trypanosoma brucei (T. b.). The infection is initiated when a tsetse fly commences ...
