11. Biomarkers and surgical predictors in temporomandibular joint disease
Sammanfattning : Background: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc displacement (DD) is associated with pain and impaired function and has two main sub-diagnoses, DD with or without reduction (DDwR/DDwoR). DD synovial tissue has been sparsely investigated, and further characterisation is needed. LÄS MER
12. Immunopathology and signalling molecules involved during experimental African trypanosomiasis
Sammanfattning : In humans, African trypanosomiasis occurs in two forms; the chronic West African form is caused by T.b. gambiense and the acute or subacute East African form is caused by T.b. LÄS MER
13. In vitro studies on human first trimester forebrain cells : differentiation and interactions with immunoregulating molecules
Sammanfattning : This thesis has focused on understanding, at the molecular level, growth regulation and differentiation of human first trimester forebrain cells, and the immune signals mediating these processes. Primary cultures were established from human forebrain tissue derived from elective first trimester abortions. LÄS MER
14. Ventilator-associated sinusitis : a clinical investigation into the inflammatory response : reactive – infective – infectious?
Sammanfattning : Critically ill mechanically ventilated patients regularly have inflammatory reactions in the paranasal sinuses. Infectious sinusitis, which is difficult to diagnose, may occur, mainly in the maxillary sinuses. This study was performed with the object of improving the knowledge of inflammatory and/or infectious disease. LÄS MER
15. Immunological factors in breast milk in relation to allergy in mother and child
Sammanfattning : Background: The allergy preventive effect of breast-feeding against the development of allergy is controversial and some of this controversy may be due to differences in the composition of breast milk between different mothers.Aim: To analyse IgA, cytokine and chemokines levels in human milk and relate the findings to matemal allergy and to development of atopic disease and IgA production in the infants, and furthermore, to assess the effects of breast milk on CBMC cytokine production.
