1. 16. Aspects of the inflammatory response and formation of polys in the nasal and sinus mucosa

   Författare :Tomas Norlander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Experimental sinusitis was induced in rabbits by ostial occlusion, with or without subsequent inoculation of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus or Bacteroides fragilis The general inflammatory response, including goblet cell differentiation and polyp formation, was morphologically investigated. Polyps were experimentally induced by a combining mechanical trauma the mucosa with infection or by injection of agarose or N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) into the maxillary sinus.

3. 17. Aspects on the cytokine load in trauma with special reference to blood components and local versus systemic cytokine activity

   Författare :Marianne Kristiansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Autotransfusion Coagulation Cytokines Cytokine inhibitors Fibrinolysis Infection Red blood cell concentrates Surgery Trauma. Stockholm 1997;

   Sammanfattning : Cytokines and their inhibitors are thought to be involved in many of the pathophysiological changes associated with trauma and infection. Therapeutic measures such as transfusion of blood components could have a bearing on the systemic cytokine load in these conditions. LÄS MER

4. 18. On the treatment of tibial shaft fractures

   Författare :Abbas Karladani; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cast; Distraction; Dynamometry; Fracture; Limb lengthening; Nailing; Outcome; Psychometry; Shaft; Soft tissue; Tibial;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to evaluate those factors, which have predictive value for development of complications after tibial shaft fractures, and to evaluate the outcome of the available treatment methods for closed, as well as open tibial shaft fractures associated with extensive soft-tissue injury. To determine the factors, which influence healing speed, we reviewed 100 consecutive patients with 104 tibial shaft fractures tibial shaft fractures. LÄS MER

5. 19. Environmental risk factors for the occurrence of multiple sclerosis

   Författare :Martin Biström; Peter Sundström; Johan Hultdin; Jonatan Salzer; Kjell-Morten Myhr; Umeå universitet; []

   Sammanfattning : Background. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory and degenerative disease of the central nervous system that typically debuts around age 30. About 2.3 million people are affected in the world today, and besides trauma it is the most common cause of neurological disability among young adults in the western world. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Biomarkers for organ damage and/or dysfuntion are used in almost all areas of medicine. The brain has eluded this technological development for some time. Recently, the S100B protein has been shown to be a promising marker of brain damage. However, before S100S can reach clinical reality, several problems must be solved. LÄS MER
