6. Characterization of human dopaminergic neurons in the developing mesencephalon and upon differentiation of stem cells- for replacement therapy in Parkinson´s disease
Sammanfattning : Cell-replacement therapy is a promising approach for treating patients with Parkinson ́s disease (PD). For this purpose, there is a need for developing a protocol that can generate high numbers of human transplantable mesencephalic dopaminer- gic (mesDA) neurons. LÄS MER
7. Parkinson's Disease with Device, Diary, or in Disguise. Dyskinesia reduction, motor state evaluation, and workforce participation among persons with Parkinson's disease
Sammanfattning : INTRODUCTION: In the wait for disease-modifying treatment for Parkinson’s disease (PD), efforts towards improved symptom control and reduced negative effects of PD can result in meaningful change patients. The general efficacy of levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) in advanced PD has been established, but its effects on dyskinesia need more investigation. LÄS MER
8. Housing Matters for People with Parkinson´s disease. Accessibility, Meaning, Control and Activities of Daily Living
Sammanfattning : Parkinson´s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurological diseases with both motor and non-motor symptoms that can be perceived as difficult to control despite medical treatment. This leads to several consequences in everyday life for example difficulties in activities of daily living (ADL), sometimes already at diagnosis. LÄS MER
9. Cell and Gene Therapy for Parkinson's Disease: Therapeutic Effect and Modulation of Dyskinesias in the 6-OHDA Rat Model
Sammanfattning : The main pathological feature in Parkinson's disease is the progressive loss of dopamine neurons in the midbrain, which in turn leads to the appearance of motor deficits such as akinesia/bradykinesia (loss/slowness of movements), rigidity, postural imbalance and tremor. To this day, there is no cure for the disease, but there are medications to relieve the symptoms. LÄS MER
10. Cardiovascular disease in dementia
Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis was to characterize the burden of cardiovascular diseases in patients with dementia, their treatment and association with survival. Further, we aimed to explore whether cardiac structure in young adults can affect the aging brain. LÄS MER
