Abstract:

Suicide affects hundreds of thousands of people around the world each year. Despite many coordinated efforts to address this problem, in multiple domains, these numbers have risen over the last decade. The Interpersonal Theory of Suicide is a relatively recent theory that has received considerable attention and investigation. Perceived burdensomeness is one of the constructs from this theory. The belief that you are a burden on others is a robust predictor of suicidal ideation and, to a less understood extent, suicidal behavior. To my knowledge, few studies have looked at the factors that lead

Abstract:

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is defined as a cancer appearing in the colon or in the rectum. In Sweden, ~ 6300 individuals were diagnosed with the disease in 2014 and ~ 2550 individuals diagnosed with CRC die each year due to their cancer. Surgery is the main treatment option of CRC and a survival rate of ~ 10 % is estimated if distant metastases have developed. It is therefore of importance to find factors that may be useful together with tumour, node, metastasis (TNM) stage to establish early CRC diagnosis, prognosis and follow-up of CRC patients. The aim of this thesis was to study the possible

Abstract:

The development of fatigue has been an area of interest to athletes and scientists alike for many years. Often, particularly during prolonged exercise in the heat, there is no obvious peripheral reason for fatigue and the central nervous system is cited as the source. The mechanisms and potential manipulations of this fatigue remain largely unclear. Chapters Three and Four attempted to reduce the transport of the serotonin precursor tryptophan into the brain in order to reduce or delay serotonin synthesis and therefore increase exercise capacity. In Chapter Three branched-chain amino acid drin

Abstract:

Adolescence is a developmental period characterized by multiple changes in virtually every aspect of an individual’s life, calling for new psychological adaptations. Exposure to different stressors caused by these changes represents a central and normal part of the process of growth and development during adolescence. However, experience of cumulative and simultaneous negative stressors remains central as a potential threat to the well-being and healthy development during adolescence. Meanwhile, when faced with identical stressors, the stress process and the health outcomes of stress vary indi

Abstract:

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious disease caused by the FMD virus (FMDV) belonging to the Picornaviridae family. The virus affects cloven-hoofed animals and occurs as seven immunologically distinct serotypes where six of the seven serotypes occur in Africa. This fact, as well as the role of wildlife in virus maintenance, makes eradication and control of FMDV in Africa difficult. Thus, it is imperative to attain more information regarding the genetic diversity of FMD viruses prevalent on the African continent to further our knowledge of the virus as well as to enable better co

Bone defects are a pervasive complication arising from many clinical conditions, both mechanical and pathological. Current treatments for large bony defects focus on applying bone grafts or synthetic materials to the defect area. Cell-based—and especially stem-cell—therapies have advanced greatly thanks to increasing attention focused on their ability to generate new tissues in situ with biomechanical properties approaching that of native tissue, but they suffer from their own shortcomings as well.

A growing literature has reported a significant reduction in pain sensitivity among hypertensioe animals and humans.

Blood pressure was re-assessed in one hundred and fifteen 19 year-old boys initially tested at age 14, when they were also presented with a pain stimulus (mechanical finger pressure).

Externalizing disorders, as described by DSM-V (2013), are an empirically supported group of mental health conditions characterized by impulsiveness, antisocial behaviors, and disruptive conduct.

Symptoms often emerge during childhood or adolescence, when brain development is still ongoing. A prematurely-developed prefrontal cortex, paired with reward-seeking and emotional responses in youth, can contribute to impulsive behaviors and l

Improved contact between the cochlear implant electrode array and the auditory nerve fibres is also likely to enhance the benefits received by cochlear implant patients.
