ICT use and mental health in young adults. Effects of computer and mobile phone use on stress, sleep disturbances, and symptoms of depression
(2012-03-01)The overall aim of this thesis was to explore possible associations between information and communication technology (ICT) use and mental health symptoms among young adults. By “ICT” in this context is meant mainly computer ... -
Identification and characterization of progenitor populations in the human adult heart
(2014-01-17)Traditionally, the heart has been regarded as a non-regenerative organ. During the last 10 years, this notion has been challenged. By 14C measurements, it was calculated that at the age of 50, about 45% of all cardiomyocytes ... -
Identification and early detection of cancer patients in primary care
(2018-03-21)Aim The aim of this thesis was to investigate how general practitioners (GP) can identify patients in primary care with potential common cancers, at an early stage. It was also to design a risk assessment tool for colorectal ... -
Identification and imaging of lipids in tissues using TOF-SIMS
(2008-08-19)Introduction: Normal lipid metabolism in the adipose tissue, skeletal muscle and aortic wall is important for the physiological function of these tissues. Dyslipidemia that is often associated with intake of high energy ... -
Identification of esters in carious dentine Staining and chemo-mechanical excavation
(2017-02-17)Dental caries is clinically seen as a yellowish-brown discoloration that can be explained by the reactions between proteins and sugars resulting in Maillard products. However, the discoloration of carious dentine is an ... -
Identification of novel antibiotic resistance genes through the exploration of mobile genetic elements
(2020-05-12)Backgrounds and aims: The evolution of multi-resistant pathogens is seriously threatening our ability to provide modern healthcare. Many of the mobile resistance factors in clinics appear to originate from environmental ... -
Identification of novel growth hormone-regulated factors
(2009-11-27)The studies described in this thesis aimed to identify novel factors involved in the regulation of longitudinal growth and bone mineralization in response to growth hormone (GH) treatment. This was done by performing a ... -
Identification of stem cell factors - Novel protein-protein interactions and their functions
(2010-09-10)Embryonic stem (ES) cells provide an unlimited source of cells potentially useful for regenerative medicine, however, prior to clinical implementation, additional basic research is needed. This thesis is focused upon ... -
IL-6 and GLP-1 in body fat regulating parts of the CNS in healthy mice
(2016-01-29)It has previously been shown that mice lacking interleukin-6 (IL-6) develop mature onset obesity. The weight-suppressing effects of IL-6 have been assumed to be exerted at a central level, as supported by the fact that ... -
ILC2s and miRNA regulation in allergy and asthma
(2018-04-12)Asthma is a common respiratory disease that is characterized by chronic inflammation of the airways. In most asthmatic subjects, the immune response is driven by pro-inflammatory type 2 cytokines (interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5 ... -
