1. Extra-articular Rheumatoid Arthritis Risk Factors and Consequences
Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic disease not only restricted to the joints, but can also be associated with the development of extra-articular manifestations. Extra-articular RA (ExRA) is of clinical importance because of the associated morbidity and increased risk of premature mortality compared with RA patients in general. LÄS MER
2. Rheumatoid Arthritis in a 10-Year Perspective, Outcome for Patients Followed from Early Disease
Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by persistent inflammation, progressive joint damage and disability. This thesis describes the outcome after 10 years in a cohort of 183 RA patients (116 women, 67 men) recruited 1985-89. The mean age was 51 years and symptom duration 11 months at inclusion. LÄS MER
3. Progression and treatment of experimental peri-implantitis
Sammanfattning : Peri-implantitis is characterized by inflammatory lesions in peri-implant tissues and loss of supporting bone. The aims of the present series of studies were to analyze (i) spontaneous progression and (ii) the effect of surgical treatment of experimental peri-implantitis at different types of implants. Labrador dogs were used. LÄS MER
4. Early rheumatoid arthritis : biomarkers and hormonal factors in relation to disease progression
Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory joint disease, affecting approximately 0.5 to 1% of the adult population. Although the aetiology is not fully known, a complex interaction between genetic, environmental and stochastic factors is thought to trigger the pathogenic mechanisms. LÄS MER
5. Quantitative Imaging-Biomarker in Prostate Cancer. Validation of Automated Bone Scan Index in the Context of Radiographic Disease Progression in Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer
Sammanfattning : Background: Metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is a bone dominant lethal disease. Progression in bone scan of mCRPC disease is assessed with the Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG) two and three criteria, which relies on the appearance of two or more new lesions. LÄS MER
