  1. 1. Refining the particulate matter airway deposition arising from indoor cooking-related biomass combustion for children in the Haramaya district in Ethiopia

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Författare :Kasper Malmborn; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Air pollution exposure; charcoal; wood; animal dung; low-income setting epidemiology; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Air pollution, a global issue affecting millions of individuals, is linked to adverse health effects on the respiratory system, but also to e.g., cancer and cardiovascular ailments. In low-income countries, cooking is often conducted by biomass-combustion, causing women and children to be exposed to high levels of indoor air pollution. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Developing Wastewater-based Early Warning System for the Detection of Disease Outbreaks and Emerging Variants with focus on SARS-CoV-2

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Industriell bioteknologi

    Författare :Ayda Kiyar; [2023]
    Nyckelord :wastewater-based epidemiology; early warning system; RT-qPCR; normalization; SARS-CoV-2; avloppsvattenbaserad epidemiologi; förvarningssystem; RT-qPCR; normalisering;

    Sammanfattning : Under covid-19-pandemin har avloppsvattenbaserad epidemiologi (WBE) använts i stor utsträckning som ett komplement till kliniska tester över många delar av världen. Detta projekt syftade till att detektera och kvantifiera belastningen av Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) i avloppsvattenprover med hjälp av Revers transkriptas kvantitativ polymeraskedjereaktion (RT-qPCR).

  3. 3. Epidemiology and genotyping of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus with amplicon-based Nanopore-sequencing : Creating a panel of clinically relevant genes

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Författare :Max Koivistoinen Jonsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Amplicon-sequencing; Genomic typing; MRSA; MSSA; MinION;

    Sammanfattning : Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a variant of the more common Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA), an opportunistic pathogen a portion of the human population carries as normal bacterial flora. When an outbreak of MRSA occurs, it is often important to determine if and how these strains are related to each other. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Effect of cardiovascular diseases on the severity of patients with renal failure

    Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Abdulla Hil Kafi; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Chronic Kidney Disease; Cardiovascular disease; Meta-analysis; Odds ratio;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic kidney disease greatly raises cardiovascular disease risk. Heart disease and death risk grow proportionately with renal disease progression. Investigate the link between cardiovascular disease prevalence and chronic renal disease severity and mortality using meta-analysis. LÄS MER
