  1. 1. Atopic dermatitis and distress

    Författare :Saly Mustafa Abdelhadi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition characterized by itching, redness, and skin lesions, affecting approximately 10–20% of children and 1–3% of adults worldwide. Distress associated with AD can negatively impact quality of life, work, and daily activities. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Experimental and Clinical Studies of SLPI, with Special Reference to IgE-Mediated Allergic Reactions

    Författare :Ulla Westin; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; in situ hybridisation; immunohistochemistry; allergic rhinitis; atopic subjects; IgE-mediated histamine release; mast cell proteases; plasma protease inhibitors; SLPI; human leukocyte proteases; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi;

    Sammanfattning : In this study we demonstrated the production of SLPI (Secretory Leukocyte Protease Inhibitor) in serous glands in the nasal mucosa. We have shown that the pattern of the expression of mRNA corresponds to the encoded protein. The encoded protein was detected by immunohistochemical methods and mRNA was discovered by in situ hybridisation. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Studies on inflammation in atopic keratoconjunctivitis

    Författare :Emma Nivenius; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :allergy;

    Sammanfattning : Atopic keratoconjunctivitis (AKC) is an ocular inflammatory condition associated with atopic dermatitis. AKC is classified as ocular allergy but with features quite different from common seasonal allergic conjunctivitis. The clinical picture includes eyelid eczema, blepharitis, conjunctivitis, and some degree of keratitis. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Asthma : Respiratory Symptoms, Atopy and Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness in Young Adults in Estonia and Sweden

    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Asthma; atopic sensitisation; prevalence; epidemiology; ECRHS; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicine; medicin;

    Sammanfattning : Morbidity of asthma has increased over the world. The reasons for this increase have remained unclear. Studies in children have reported considerable East-West difference in the prevalence of atopy and respiratory allergies. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The impact of airway-irritating exposure and wet work on subjects with allergy or other sensitivity : epidemiology and mechanisms

    Författare :Pernilla Wiebert; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Air pollution; allergic rhinitis; allergy; asthma; blood; carbonaceous; circulation; clearance; cohort; dermatitis; epidemiology; exposure assessment; Indium-111; inhalation; job-exposure matrix; lung; occupation; retention; Technegas generator; Technetium-99m; translocation; ultrafine particles;

    Sammanfattning : The prevalence of asthma and allergies is increasing, which means that the proportion of workers on the labour market with allergy or other sensitivity also increases. It is as of yet not known to what extent these persons with an elevated sensitivity in the airways or the skin are affected by exposure to irritating substances at work. LÄS MER
