  1. 6. Oral lichen planus : studies of factors involved in differentiation, epithelial mesenchymal transition and inflammation

    Författare :Karin Danielsson; Karin Nylander; Ylva Britt Wahlin; Linda Boldrup; Jesper Reibel; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; oral lichen planus; differentiation; inflammation; autoimmune; premalign; odontologi; Odontology; patologi; Pathology;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Lichen planus is a chronic inflammation of skin and mucosa with unknown cause. Oral Lichen Planus, OLP, affects around 2% of the population. Autoimmunity has been suggested as a possible cause as the disease has autoimmune features such as female predominance, cyclic nature and cytotoxic T-cell infiltrate. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Carotid calcifications in panoramic radiographs in relation to carotid stenosis

    Författare :Maria Garoff; Jan Ahlqvist; Eva Levring Jäghagen; Per Wester; Kostas Tsiklakis; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; carotid stenosis; panoramic radiography; calcification; atherosclerosis; odontologi; Odontology;

    Sammanfattning : Calcifications in carotid atheromas can be detected in a panoramic radiograph (PR) of the jaws. A carotid artery calcification (CAC) can indicate presence of significant (≥ 50%) carotid stenosis (SCS). LÄS MER

  4. 8. Probiotic Lactobacilli in the context of dental caries as a biofilm-mediated disease

  5. 9. Exploring temporomandibular disorders : longitudinal and qualitative perspectives

    Författare :Aurelia Ilgunas; Anna Lövgren; Frank Lobbezoo; Corine M. Visscher; Birgitta Häggman-Henrikson; Malin Ernberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cohort studies; decision-making; dental health services; dentistry; epidemiology; evidence-based dentistry; facial pain; population health; qualitative studies; temporomandibular joint disorders; women; odontologi; Odontology;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Ideally, all clinical decision-making should enable care provision on the best available scientific evidence, clinical experience, and evaluated risks and benefits. Even though there are validated and evaluated decision tools for identification, diagnostics and treatment of temporomandibular disorders (TMD), patients with TMD still seem to go undetected, undiagnosed and undertreated in dentistry.
