Intersubject variability in the processing of fearful faces in healthy adults
(2012-08-02)
Threatening stimuli have a privileged status in the brain, meaning they receive priority in the processing stream. This makes sense from an evolutionary perspective where quickly and accurately identifying threat is necessary ...
The preterm infant : evaluating and developing non-invasive respiratory strategies to avoid mechanical ventilation
(2021-05-11)
Avoiding mechanical ventilation of preterm infants is important to prevent morbidity and mortality. Non-invasive ventilation and CPAP has been shown to be superior to intubation and mechanical ventilation in preventing ...
Tec family kinases : transcriptional and posttranslational regulation
(2009-03-27)
Tec family tyrosine kinases consist of five members: Btk, Itk, Tec,
Rlk/Txk and Bmx. These kinases are highly expressed in hematopoietic
cells, including B cells, T cells and mast cells. Tec kinases execute
important ...
Antibiotic resistance and antibiotic consumption with focus on Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(2007-05-04)
Aims: The general aims of the present studies were to assess the levels of antibiotic resistance, in relation to antibiotic consumption at the Karolinska University Hospital, Solna (KS) and at 11 other Swedish hospitals, ...
Synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity in the mouse striatum
(2008-03-05)
The striatum is the major input nucleus of the basal ganglia and can be subdivided into a dorsal part and a ventral part that is also named nucleus accumbens (NAc). The dorsal part is involved in motor control and habit ...
Dynamic protein trafficking of the nuclear membrane and peroxisomes
(2009-01-30)
The cell nucleus is enclosed by the nuclear envelope (NE), a double lipid membrane separating the nucleoplasm from the cytoplasm. Transport of macromolecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm takes places through nuclear ...
Violent crime : addressing causation with family-based methods
(2012-05-15)
Violent crime is an important public health problem, and incurs major costs for society. The effect of interventions has so far been modest, often attributed to a research focus on risk factors for crime, but a relative ...
Peer learning on clinical wards : supervision, student activities and the learning environment
(2022-11-11)
Introduction: Worldwide, a growing number of healthcare students require clinical environments for learning. Multiple students are placed on clinical wards simultaneously with one supervisor to meet this demand. This can ...
Analysis and characterization of chemo- and radiation therapy sensitizing strategies in tumours with focus on effects of phenothiazines on DNA damage response signalling
(2015-09-22)
Cancer is, despite rapid progress in development of new targeted therapies, still mainly
treated with surgery, chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. The last two mentioned
conventional therapies often meet general ...
Genetic and metabolic studies towards personalized conditioning regimen prior to stem cell transplantation
(2014-08-11)
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative treatment for several malignant and non- malignant diseases. The busulphan (Bu)/cyclophosphamide (Cy) combination is one of the most common conditioning regimens ...
