1. 1. Streptococcus pyogenes - a manipulator of human defences

   Författare :Fredrik Kahn; Infektionsmedicin; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Streptococcus pyogenes; M protein; neutrophils; platelets; platelet-neutrophil complexes; fibrinogen; IgG; abscess; venous thrombosis; heparin binding protein; thrombocytopenia;

   Sammanfattning : Streptococcus pyogenes is a major human pathogen with more than 500 000 casualties annually of which at least 163 000 are due to invasive infections. The remainder is due to post-streptococcal complications with rheu¬matic heart disease constituting the majority. S. LÄS MER

3. 2. Kinin System Activation in Vasculitis

   Författare :Robin Kahn; Lund Pediatrik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; kinin receptors; inflammation; vasculitis; proteinase 3; neutophils; anti-neutrophil-cytoplasmic antibodies; Kinin;

   Sammanfattning : The kinin system is activated when high-molecular-weight kininogen (HK) is cleaved by plasma kallikrein thus generating bradykinin. Bradykinin is a potent proinflammatory peptide that induces plasma leakage, blood pressure drop, liberation of inflammatory cytokines and pain. LÄS MER

4. 3. Dying to make a fresh start : mortality and health transition in a new South Africa

   Författare :Kathleen Kahn; Anneli Ivarsson; Stig Wall; Michel Garenne; Debbie Bradshaw; Vinod Diwan; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; age-specific mortality; agincourt; demographic surveillance system; epidemiologic transition; health transition; mortality trends; rural; South Africa; verbal autopsy; vital registration.; Epidemiology; Epidemiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Rationale: Vital registration is lacking in developing settings where health and development problems are most pressing. Policy-makers confront an “information paradox”: the critical need for information on which to base priorities and monitor progress, and the profound shortage of such information. LÄS MER

5. 4. Neurotrophins and nitric oxide in relation to airway responses in experimental asthma in vivo

   Författare :Lydia Bennedich Kahn; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Asthma is an inflammatory disease of allergic or non-allergic genesis characterized by intermittent reversible airway obstruction and variable degrees of persistent airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). Increase in AHR likely arises from augmented airway inflammation, such as associated with a late airway response. LÄS MER
