  1. 21. Muscle function in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis : A two-year follow-up

    Författare :Hans Lindehammar; Lars Larsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; arthritis; juvenile rheumatoid; physiopathology; muscle; skeletal; pathology; physiopathology; Muscular atrophy; etiology; physiopathology; arthritis; juvenile rheumatoid; complications; Medicine; Medicin;

    Sammanfattning : This is a study of muscle function in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA). Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a disease that primarily affects the synovial membrane of joints. Muscle weakness, atrophy and pain occur in adult RA. This may be a consequence of joint pain, stiffness and immobility. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Gene expression studies of pregastrulation development: the basement membrane is essential for cell differentiation

    Författare :Mikael Åkerlund; Muskelbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; muscular dystrophy; development; Basement membrane; laminin; stem cells; FGF;

    Sammanfattning : Basement membranes (BMs) are sheet-like structures of extracellular matrix. They act as a supporting structure but can also significantly influence cellular behavior in development, tissue homeostasis and disease. Laminins, a major BM component, are multidomain proteins, consisting of three polypeptide chains (α, β and γ). LÄS MER

  4. 23. Non-nutritive sucking in the neonate

    Författare :Maria Hafström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Numerical-Analysis-Computer-Assisted; Non-nutritive sucking. Sucking behaviour; Infant; Newborn; Premature; Development; Disease-Susceptibility; Follow-up; Meperidine;

    Sammanfattning : Non-nutritive sucking (NNS) by the newborn infant is a fundamental behaviour and is one of the first coordinated muscular activities in the foetus. A new specially designed computer-based method for automatic analysis of the NNS pattern in neonates has been produced. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Functional role of cytoskeletal, contractile and regulatory proteins in muscle disease

    Författare :Mei Li; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The function of skeletal muscle is an essential component of animal physiology and daily life. Hereditary muscle diseases are comparatively rare in humans, but often very severe. The disease causes are heterogeneous, defects in nerves, intracellular components, structural proteins and the contractile apparatus can be involved. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Experienced physical functioning and effects of resistance training in patients with chronic kidney disease

    Författare :Susanne Heiwe; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Exercise; Adult; Kidney Failure; Chronic; Biopsy; Muscle Fibers; Health Behaviour; Rehabilitation; Qualitative research; Adaptation; Psychological;

    Sammanfattning : Physical fitness declines as chronic kidney disease progresses, and is approximately 50% of the expected norm when starting dialysis therapy This means that physical fitness in these patients is so reduced that it impinge on their ability and capacity to perform activities of daily livings. Muscular weakness, caused by for instance abnormal protein metabolism, is one of the main reasons for this decline in physical functioning. LÄS MER
