  1. 1. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation : patients’ and sibling donors’ perspectives

    Författare :Annika M Kisch; Malmö högskola; []
    Nyckelord :Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation; Confidentiality; Information and care model; Quality of life; Perspectives; Sibling donor; Stem cell donation;

    Sammanfattning : Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hereafter HSCT) is an established treatment which offers a potential cure for a variety of diseases, mainly haematological malignancies. However, the treatment is also associated with significant risks of acute complications and late side effects, including mortality. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Potential Hazards for Haematopoietic Stem Cell Donors

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis has been to increase our knowledge about the allogeneic stem cell donation procedure and the associated risks for stem cell donors.  In a first study (paper I), we described the donation procedure and short-term side effects of 1957 donors included in the Nordic Register of Haematopoietic Stem Cell Donors.

    Sammanfattning : Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is mainly an intensive treatment option for hematology malignancies. During the past decades, improved care and treatment have been systematically developed. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Alloreactivity in stem cell transplantation

    Författare :Anna Nordlander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), relapse and graft rejection are the main complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The aim of this thesis was to achieve a better understanding of the alloreactivity seen after HSCT, focusing on graft rejection, but also including the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect and GVHD.

  5. 5. Immune reconstitution after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

    Författare :Brigitta Omazic; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Immune reconstitution; allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation; IgH gene expression; TcRVbeta gene expression; B lymphocytes; T lymphocytes; IGF-1 receptor; thyroid hormone receptor.;

    Sammanfattning : After treatment with allogeneic hernatopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) the patient suffers from a deficient immune system for at least 12 months or longer. During this period, the patient is susceptible to infections and if the state of immune deficiency is prolonged there is an increased risk of relapse of the underlying malignancy as well as development of secondary malignancies.
