  1. 21. Benefits and risks with digital dermoscopy and teledermoscopy

    Författare :Johan Dahlén Gyllencreutz; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; melanoma; non-melanoma skin cancer; teledermoscopy; dermoscopy; teledermatology; e-health;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing incidence of malignant melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) makes it necessary to optimize the management of patients with suspicious skin lesions, from triaging, to establishing a diagnosis and planning treatment. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the use of teledermoscopy (TDS) as a way of achieving such an optimization, as well as to study safety aspects of digital dermoscopy and teledermoscopy while pointing out risks and pitfalls so that they can be avoided.

  3. 22. Inflammation as a therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease

    Författare :Erik Hjorth; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder which is characterised by impairment of memory and learning. The impairment is caused by neuronal death which originates in the parts of the brain that execute memory functions: the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to study polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUPA) in relation to the appem11nce of anergic diseases in children and mothers in late pregnancy and during the lactation period and to the development of atopy in children, as well as the influence of maternal PUF A on their babies.The levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6n-3) and total n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCP) were lower (p = 0.

  5. 24. Influence of Herring (Clupea harengus) Intake on Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease

    Författare :Helen Lindqvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Herring; cardiovascular disease; metabolic syndrome; overweight; intima media thickness; lipoproteins; n-3 fatty acids; antioxidants; fish;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes four studies that investigated whether or not herring (Clupea harengus) intake decreases cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors. It has previously been shown that fatty fish and fish oil intake decreases the risk of atherosclerosis and CVD. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Finding the ligand : retinoid receptor activation in the CNS

    Författare :Alexander Mata de Urquiza; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Nuclear hormone receptors (NRs) comprise a large family of ligand activated transcription factors, found in vertebrates, arthropods and nematodes. Among the members of the NR family are the receptors for small, lipophilic ligands such as the steroid hormones, vitamins A and D, thyroid hormone oxysterols and bile acids. LÄS MER
