Quadrivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine has been shown to provide protection from HPV 6/11/16/18-related cervical, vaginal, and vulvar disease through 3 years. We provide an update on the efficacy of the quadrivalent HPV vaccine against high-grade cervical, vaginal, and vulvar lesions based on end-of-study data from three clinical trials. Additionally, we stratify vaccine efficacy by sever

Many neurons typically fire action potentials in brief, high-frequency bursts with specific consequences for their synaptic output. Here we have examined short-term plasticity engaged during burst activation using electrophysiological recordings in acute rat hippocampal slices. We show that CA3-CA1 glutamate synapses exhibit a prominent depression of presynaptic release probability for approximate

Objectives: Occupational exposure to diesel exhaust is common due the widespread use of dieselpowered combustion engines. Diesel exhaust is chemically complex and consists of thousands of compounds present as gases and particulate matter. Both nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and elemental carbon(EC) have been used as markers for diesel exhaust exposure. Currently EC is regarded as the best surrogate of die

Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by an expanded polyglutamine tract in the protein huntingtin (htt). Although HD has historically been viewed as a brain-specific disease, htt is expressed ubiquitously, and recent studies indicate that mutant htt might cause changes to the immune system that could contribute to pathogenesis. Monocytes from HD patients and mouse models are hyperactive in response

Background Sub-Sahara Africa has seen tremendous economic growth the last years. Between 2001-2011 six of the world’s fastest growing economies were in Sub-Sahara Africa. This makes the region a very attractive market for firms and investors interested in growing their business. Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to identify the key factors that affect growth for firms that are active or plann

The aim of this thesis was to expand the knowledge regarding the use and need of assistive devices, in particular mobility devices, and to investigate how, from a European perspective, the use of them changed during the ageing process. An additional aim was to explore the use of mobility devices in everyday life among very old Swedish women during a five-year period. Further, the aim was to contri

ABSTRACT Author: Malena Cronholm-Nouicer Title: When a parent gets cancer – the family viewed from a resilience perspective (translated title) Supervisor: Bodil Rasmusson Assessor: Mats Hilte The aim of this study was to examine how parents describe family members´ experiences when a parent suffers from cancer, how the family has dealt with the situation, how the parents describe the access to su

Listeners are constantly trying to predict what the speaker will say next. We concurrently measured the electrophysiological and haemodynamic correlates of syntactic pre-activation, investigating when and where the brain processes speech melody cues to upcoming word order structure. Pre-activation of syntactic structure was reflected in a left-lateralised pre-activation negativity (PrAN), which wa

The Primeiras and Segundas archipelagos are a string of coralline islands in northern Mozambique. The presence of upwelling, clockwise and anticlockwise eddies, and the influence of Zambezi river’s discharge result in nutrient and biodiversity dispersion along the coastline and a connection between Mozambique’s southern and northern reef systems. The fringing spur and groove reef structure and rel

The present study examined assertiveness and responsiveness in two different conversational contexts: children with specific language impairment (SLI) interacting with an age-matched peer with typical language development (TLD) and children with SLI interacting with a language-matched peer with TLD. The dialogues where the 10 participating children with SLI interacted with an age peer were charact

Domstolarnas och de enskilda domarnas självständighet och oberoende är av grundläggande betydelse för rättsstaten och för ett fungerande demokratiskt samhällsskick. Syftet med uppsatsen är att beskriva och analysera gällande rätt om ordinarie domares arbete ur konstitutionellt och arbetsrättsligt perspektiv. Metoden är rättsdogmatisk och rättsanalytisk. Materialet som används är dels de traditioneThe autonomy of the court and the individual judges is of fundamental importance for the rule of law and for a functioning democratic social order. The purpose of this thesis is to describe and analyze the law as it applies to ordinary judges from the perspective of constitutional law and labor law. The method of inquiry is legal dogmatic and legal analytic. The materials used in this thesis are p

Röststörningar och halsirritation anses ofta bero på gastroesofageal refluxsjukdom (GERD). Emellertid är såväl röstsymtomen som fynden vid svalg- och larynxundersökningar oftast ospecifika hos patienter med misstänkt reflux. Dessutom baseras refluxdiagnosen hos flertalet patienter enbart på just forekorosten av röst- och halssymtom. Därfor är sambanden mellan GERD och röststörningar fortfarande in

The purpose of this master thesis is to establish the underlying factors that explain why limited companies’ in Sweden switch audit firm. We have applied existing economic theories that have been used in prior studies. The findings in our study demonstrate that a small amount of Swedish limited companies switch audit firm and that only audit quality is significant. Thus, we can conclude that there

Stress within the venture creation is a fundamental part of the entrepreneurial journey, if not handled properly, it will have a detrimental impact on entrepreneurial success. Stress coping mechanisms are a well renowned tool to reduce a stressor. Furthermore, life partners play a tremendous role in the life of an entrepreneur, either being supportive or straining. Yet, their influence is underexp

The aim of the study was to investigate how professionals working with men who are victims of violence in heterosexual relationships perceive how norms and expectations in society affect the target group and the work in this field. The empirical material was based on eight interviews with professionals in different parts of Sweden who have come into contact with the target group in their work. The

A reliable serological marker of acute cellular rejection (ACR) after small bowel transplantation (SBTx) is still missing. Plasma citrulline level (PCL) reflects the functional integrity of intestinal mucosa which is partially lost during ACR. The aim of our study was to investigate the role of PCL as marker of ACR after SBTx. Eighteen German landrace pigs were used and divided into three groups.

Background. Treatment of childhood medulloblastoma has evolved to reduce neurotoxicity while improving survival. However, the impact of evolving therapies on late neurocognitive outcomes and adult functional independence remains unknown. Methods. Adult survivors of childhood medulloblastoma (n = 505; median [minimum–maximum] age, 29 [18–46] years) and sibling controls (n = 727; 32 [18–58] years) f

There is an increasing focus on the importance of reducing red meat consumption for environmental as well as health reasons. In this study, we have assessed how consumers' choice of protein source in a meal could be affected by two nudging tools. The first nudge consisted of serving a plant-based steak as the default option instead of beef, alongside placing the plant-based steak at the top of the
