  1. 21. Stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) muscle power, muscle strength and functional capacity in Scandinavian women and men - Effects of ageing

    Författare :Cecilia Elam; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Stretch-shortening cycle peak muscle power; Physical performance; Ageing; Physiotherapy; Functional capacity;

    Sammanfattning : Ageing is associated with a gradual decline in physical function due to age-related loss of muscle mass, strength, and muscle power, leading to loss of independence. Physical therapists employ various tests to assess of physical functional performance, postural control, and muscle strength. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Genetic Studies of Alzheimer's Disease

    Författare :Elin Blom; Anna Glaser; Martin Ingelsson; Lars Lannfelt; Jan Hillert; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer s disease; Linkage; Affected sib-pairs; APOE; APP duplication; 10q21; 19q13; Wnt signaling; Geriatrics and medical gerontology; Geriatrik och medicinsk gerontologi;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) often have a family history of the disease, implicating genetics as a major risk factor. Three genes are currently known to cause familial early-onset AD (65 years), only the APOE gene has repeatedly been associated to AD, where the ε4 allele increases disease risk and decreases age at onset.

  3. 23. Translating Cardiac and Cardiometabolic GWAS Using Zebrafish

    Författare :Benedikt von der Heyde; Marcel den Hoed; Anastasia Emmanouilidou; Erik Ingelsson; Shawn Burgess; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; GWAS; Zebrafish; Medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified thousands of loci associated with cardiac and cardiometabolic traits. However, the trait-associated variants usually do not clearly point to causal gene(s), mechanism(s) or tissue(s). Model systems that allow for a comprehensive and quick candidate gene screening are necessary, ideally in vivo. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Genetic polymorphism and breast cancer risk in young women

    Författare :Malin Bergman; Helena Jernström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women in the western world. Although the disease is rare in young women, it is one of the main causes of death at young age. The early onset breast cancer has demonstrated more aggressive pathological features than the late onset disease. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Experimental and Clinical Studies of Oxidative Stress in Pre-Eclampsia

    Författare :Peppi Nash; Ulf Eriksson; Matts Olovsson; Leif Jansson; Lucilla Poston; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Obstetrics and gynaecology; Pre-eclampsia; Oxidative stress; Diabetes; Placenta; Rat; Antioxidants; Suramin; Vitamin E; Vitamin C; PAI-1; PAI-2; Obstetrik och kvinnosjukdomar;

    Sammanfattning : Impaired placentation and oxidative stress are proposed to play major roles in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia (PE). It has recently been pointed out that PE might be more than one disease and may have several different pathogeneses. LÄS MER
