Characterization of gut microbiota composition and functions in patients with chronic alcohol overconsumption
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-20)Excessive alcohol intake can alter the gut microbiota, which may underlie the pathophysiology of alcohol-related diseases. We examined gut microbiota composition and functions in patients with alcohol overconsumption for >10 years, compared to a control group of patients with a history of no or low alcohol intake. Faecal microbiota composition was assessed by 16S rRNA sequencing. Gut microbiota ... -

Spatial extent of solar proton impact in the Earth's atmosphere - Observations and modeling
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2019-12-18)Solar proton events cause large-scale ionization in the Earth's middle atmosphere leading to chemical changes, changes in the energy budget of the middle atmosphere, and radio wave absorption. The accurate implementation of the spatial impact of solar protons and other particle ionization sources in climate models is necessary to understand the role of energetic particle precipitation in natural ... -
Composition of gut microbiota of children and adolescents with perinatal HIV infection taking antiretroviral therapy in Zimbabwe
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-24)<p><i>Background - </i>Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection causes impairment of the gastrointestinal barrier, with substantial depletion of CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells in the gut. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) restores CD4<sup>+</sup> counts and may have beneficial effects on gut microbiota in adults. Little is known about effect of long-term ART on gut microbiome in HIV-infected children. We ... -
