  1. 6. Bone tissue regeneration indento-alveolar surgery : clinical and experimental studies on biomaterials and bone graft substitutes

    Författare :Annika Sahlin-Platt; Maria Ransjö; Christer Dahlin; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biomaterials; bone graft substitutes; compomer; root end filling; Bio-Oss; Bioactive glass 45S5; Algipore; SEM EDAX; ICP-OES; Cryo-XPS;

    Sammanfattning : Pathological processes in the alveolar and facial bones can lead to bone loss that may not heal with complete regeneration. Biomaterials can be used to facilitate the healing process and/or as a bone substitute, but the mechanisms are not fully understood. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Alveolar macrophages and lung surfactant in the defense against Cryptococcus neoformans

    Författare :Norma Teresa Gross; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :alveolar macrophages; Cryptococcus neoformans; lung surfactant;

    Sammanfattning : Cryptococcus neoformans causes disease mainly in immunosuppressed patients, especially those with AIDS, and on corticosteroids. The yeast is normally inhaled and the lung is the primary site of infection, where the alveolar macrophages (AM) provide a first line of host defense. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Nitric oxide in experimental sepsis

    Författare :Peter Dahm; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intensive care; Nitric oxide; Sepsis; NO inhalation; Endotoxin; Acute lung injury; ARDS; Nitric oxide synthase; L-NMMA; L-NAME; Anestesiologi; Anaesthesiology; Pigs; intensivvård;

    Sammanfattning : Nitric oxide (NO) is important in the control of blood pressure and organ perfusion. In septic shock, NO produced by inducible NO-synthase (NOS) has been claimed to mediate pathological vasodilation and cell injury, while NO produced by constitutive NOS may be protective in counteracting hypoperfusion and organ injury.

  5. 9. Defense and inflammation by alveolar macrophages in response to inhaled fungi

    Författare :Khairun Nessa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Alveolar macrophage; Candida and Aspergillus species; C. neoformans; phagocytosis; oxidative metabolism; phagolysosomal pH; cytokines.;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Serious fungal infections have increased notably in patients receiving modern treatment like organ transplantation, parenteral nutrition, long term steroid therapy and broad spectrum antibiotics. Patients with HIV infections and drug addicts also contract fungal infections. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Exploring small airways using breath analyses

    Författare :Emilia Viklund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; exhaled particles; small airways; alveolar nitric oxide; SARS-CoV-2; birch pollen; smoking; lining fluid;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Airway irritants such as allergens, tobacco smoke and viruses may cause damage in the small airways, usually undetected with routine diagnostic methods. Analyses of endogenously produced nitric oxide (NO) and endogenously produced small droplets (i.e. LÄS MER
