  1. 1. Studies on the Epidemiology of Open-angle Glaucoma

    Författare :Curt Ekström; Albert Alm; Bertil Lindblom; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Ophtalmology; Open-angle glaucoma; Epidemiology; Capsular glaucoma; Chronic simple glaucoma; Normal tension glaucoma; Pseudoexfoliation; Pseudoexfoliation glaucoma; Prevalence; Incidence; Intraocular pressure; Oftalmiatrik;

    Sammanfattning : Glaucoma is a common disease in the elderly population. Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is the predominant form of glaucoma. Chronic simple glaucoma and capsular glaucoma, characterized by the occurrence of pseudoexfoliation in the anterior eye segment, are the most frequent types of OAG. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Long-term follow-up of pseudoexfoliation, intraocular pressure and glaucoma : epidemiological studies in northern Sweden

    Författare :Siv Åström; Christina Lindén; Hans Stenlund; Bertil Lindblom; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pseudoexfoliation; glaucoma; intraocular pressure; age cohort; screening; long-term follow-up;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose An age-cohort was studied with long-term follow-up. The population was born in 1915, living in the municipality of Skellefteå in 1981. The purpose was to investigate the prevalence and incidence of pseudoexfoliation (PEX), its influence on intraocular pressure (IOP) and development of open-angle glaucoma (OAG). LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Development and improvement of analytical techniques are vital in analytical chemistry research. This thesis describes the development and use of tailored surfaces for bioanalytical applications. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Molecular and epidemiological studies on eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome

    Författare :Amelie Botling Taube; Jonas Bergquist; Albert Alm; Eva Larsson; Hannu Uusitalo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pseduoexfoliation syndrome; PEX; aqueous humor; cataract; cataract surgery; lens capsule; proteomics; mass spectrometry; MS; MALDI TOF MS MS; quantitative proteomics; iTRAQ; dimethyl labeling; imaging mass spectrometry; IMS; time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry; TOF-SIMS; crystallin; epidemiology; risk factor; Ophtalmology; Oftalmiatrik;

    Sammanfattning : Pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome is an age-related condition characterized by the production and accumulation of extracellular fibrillary material in the anterior segment of the eye. PEX predisposes for several pathological conditions, such as glaucoma and complications during and after cataract surgery. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Laser treatment in glaucoma : efficacy and safety

    Författare :Erika Rasmuson; Gauti Jóhannesson; Christina Linden; Björn Lundberg; Mika Harju; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glaucoma; laser treatment; intraocular pressure; glaucoma treatment; glaukom; laserbehandling; ögontryck; glaukombehandling; oftalmiatrik; ophthalmology; oftalmiatrik; ophthalmology;

    Sammanfattning : Glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy and the major cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Although the pathogenesis of glaucoma is not completely understood, the most important risk factor for development and progression of the disease is an elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). LÄS MER
