For a CD8 epitope-based vaccine to match different geographic locations, the targeted epitopes for cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) must be present in the local circulating HIV-1 strains. Secondly, the vaccine epitopes should match the host population HLA types. We characterized two new HIV-1 isolates from Guinea-Bissau. Also, we have identified 15 subdominant CD8 epitopes representing common HLA su

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease of unknown etiology. A characteristic feature of RA is the presence of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA). Since ACPAs are highly specific for RA and are often present before the onset of RA symptoms, they have become valuable diagnostic and prognostic. As a result, several assays for detection of ACPAs exist, which vary in sensitivity a

Heat-shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a molecular chaperone that activates oncogenic transformation in several solid tumors, including lung and breast cancers. Ganetespib, a most promising candidate among several HSP90 inhibitors under clinical trials, has entered Phase III clinical trials for cancer therapy. Despite numerous evidences validating HSP90 as a target of anticancer, there are few studies o

Introduction: Survival in patients with cyanotic congenital heart disease (CCHD) has improved dramatically. The result is an ageing population with risk of acquired heart disease. Previous small uncontrolled studies suggested that these patients are protected against the development of atherosclerosis. To test this hypothesis, we sought to determine the prevalence of subclinical atherosclerosis in

Polysaccharides derived from plant foods are major components of the human diet, with limited contributions of related components from fungal and algal sources. In particular, starch and other storage carbohydrates are the major sources of energy in all diets, while cell wall polysaccharides are the major components of dietary fiber. We review the role of these components in the human diet, includ

Central nervous system (CNS) involvement is rare in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Thus, the clinical features and outcomes are not well described. Cases of histologically confirmed CNS HL diagnosed between 1995 and 2015 were retrospectively identified in institutional (n = 7), national (n = 2), and cooperative group (n = 1) databases. We screened 30,781 patients with HL in our combined data

PURPOSE: Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are particularly susceptible to developing pressure injuries. Epidemiologic data is however unavailable. We aimed to provide an international picture of the extent of pressure injuries and factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries in adult ICU patients.METHODS: International 1-day point-prevalence study; follow-up for outcome assessment unti

Changes in gene regulation and expression govern orderly transitions from hematopoietic stem cells to terminally differentiated blood cell types. These transitions are disrupted during leukemic transformation, but knowledge of the gene regulatory changes underpinning this process is elusive. We hypothesized that identifying core gene regulatory networks in healthy hematopoietic and leukemic cells

Uppsatsens syfte är att ur ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv undersöka frivillighetsrekvisitet i 6 kap. 1 § brottsbalken. Först genom att undersöka hur lagstiftaren be-skrivit rekvisitet i förarbetena och lagtexten för att sedan analysera hovrättsdomar som tillämpat det. Detta för att avgöra om kritiken gällande oförutsebarheten i lagstiftningen varit befogad. Diskussionen om frivillighet kom på allvaThe purpose of this thesis is to examine the requirement of consent in chapter 6 section 1 of the Swedish Criminal Code (brottsbalken, SFS 1962:700) from a legal security perspective. First by examining how the legislator described the requirement in the legislative history and in the text of the law and thereafter by analyzing court cases where the requirement has been applied. This is to decide

Detta examensarbete är utfört i samarbete med Tankens Trädgård, en förening som startade 2004. De strävar efter att skapa ett affärsnätverk för kvinnligt företagande. Via Campus Helsingborg sökte de studenter som kunde ingå i projekteringsgruppen Design och kommunikation. Tillsammans skulle vi formge ett mobilt rum, influerat av renässansen i Florens. Grundtanken är att skapa en mötesplats där man

Gröna tak kan minska problem med s.k. urban heat islands och kan användas för dagvattenhantering. Andra miljöfördelar som en förbättring av luftkvalitet, biodiversitet och bullerminskning finns också. Detta projekt fokuserar på lokala (kommunala) medel för att skapa en bättre miljö med extensiva gröna tak, vilka är nästan underhållsfria. Ett delområde i Lund som inkluderar Universitetet och UniverGreen roofs have the potential to mitigate problems with an urban heat island and to act as an element in stormwater management. Other environmental benefits exist as well, such as improvement of air quality, biological diversity and noise reduction. This project focuses on local community efforts to create a better environment through the use of extensive green roofs, which require almost no main

Att köpa sexuella tjänster har varit brottsligt i Sverige sedan 1999. Även om kriminaliseringen i förarbetena delvis motiverades med att prostitution är skadligt för individerna som befinner sig i situationen så är det inte, åtminstone inte tydligt, ett brott mot person. Samtidigt finns det personer med erfarenhet av att sälja sex som vittnar om utsatthet och övergrepp inom prostitutionen, något sBuying sexual services has been illegal in Sweden since 1999. Although the criminalization in the preparatory work was partly motivated by the fact that prostitution is harmful to the individuals who are in the situation, it is not, at least not clear, a crime against an individual. At the same time, there are people with experience of selling sex that tells about their experiences, showing that a

Abstrakt Bakgrund: Ambulanstransporter av intensivvårdspatienter kan vara nödvändiga för att genomföra undersökningar eller behandlingar på ett annat sjukhus. Transporten ska vara så säker som möjligt och inte öka riskerna för patienten. Syfte: Studiens syfte var att kartlägga de interhospitala transporter som utfördes av Region Skånes Intensivvårdsambulans mellan 2010-2013. Metod: Retrospektiv,

Sveriges medlemskap i EU medför att förordningar och direktiv måste implementeras. Sverige har vid flertalet tillfällen mottagit kritik både från EUkommissionen och via en anmälan från TCO, för bristande tillämpning i nationell lagstiftning vad gäller visstidsdirektivet. Kommissonen anser att Sverige inte uppfyller direktivets krav något TCO instämmer i. Svenskt Näringsliv och svenska staten bifal

Kvantitativ analys är en teknik som syftar till att förstå komplexa system genom att använda matematisk och statistisk modellering. Det är en viktig del av dagens finansiella system och innebär bland annat att modellera den slumpmässiga utvecklingen av finansiella tillgångar, och för att förutspå verkliga händelser som till exempel förändring av riksbankens styrränta. En mycket vanlig metod som anDiffusion processes are the most commonly used models in mathematical finance, and are used extensively not only by academics but also practitioners. Nowadays a wide range of models, that can capture many of the effects observed in financial markets, are available. A very important task is to calibrate the models to observed market data and to achieve a good fit, since a slight misspecification ca
