  1. 11. Risk factors for atopic disease in childhood

    Författare :Lennart Nilsson; John Taranger; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Background: It is important to assess risk factors for the development of allergic diseases, primarily because these diseases are so common and affect one third of all children in the western world, sometimes with serious manifestations, and also because these diseases have continued to increase over the last few decades.Aims: To study the difference between the cumulative incidence of allergic diseases in 7-ycarold children in 1974 and 1994.

  3. 12. Prediction and prevention of allergy in infants and children

    Författare :Hannes Odelram; Tony Foucard; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Atopic disposition is hereditary with varying penetrance. A carefully obtained family history of atopic disease (FH) is useful as a predictor but has low sensitivity. Other tested predictors such as cord blood (CB) IgE, counts of different CB cell elements and combinations of predictors all have a similar, or even lower sensitivity and specificity. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Early life factors and the long-term development of asthma

    Författare :Hartmut Vogt; Lennart Nilsson; Lennart Bråbäck; Karin Fälth-Magnusson; Catarina Almqvist Malmros; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; asthma; birth cohort; national register;

    Sammanfattning : Asthma, a huge burden on millions of individuals worldwide, is one of the most important public health issues in many countries. As genetic and   environmental factors interact, asthma may be programmed very early in life, perhaps even in utero. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Biochemical and immunological characterization of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor from Torpedo marmorata electric organ

    Författare :Lena Elfman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Neuronal information transfer in vertebrate skeletal muscle and in the electric organ of e.g. Torpedo is mediated by acetylcholine (ACh). The nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) complex translates the binding of ACh into permeability changes. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Signaling capacity of ß2-integrins in relations to neutrophil motility

    Författare :Ragnhild Löfgren; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Sammanfattning : The neutrophil granulocyte is one of the most mobile cell types in the human body and represents the first line of defense against invading pathogens. Adhesion and chemotactic receptors on the cell surface work together through modulations of the cytoskeleton and thereby cause the cell to move. LÄS MER
