  1. 36. Pain, mechanisms of fatigue and autonomic function in rheumatoid arthritis

    Författare :Reem Altawil; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a disabling chronic autoimmune disease characterized by joint pain, and potentially leading to a serious decay of life quality. Pain remains the most important problem for patients with RA, and there is an obvious need to increase the knowledge of pain patterns in early disease and relation to anti-rheumatic treatment.

  2. 37. Prognostic Factors in First-Episode Schizophrenia : Five-year Outcome of Symptoms, Function and Obesity

    Författare :Robert Bodén; Johan Sundström; Leif Lindström; Lena Flyckt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; First-episode; psychosis; schizophrenia; community mental health services; remission; functional outcome; biochemistry; obesity; weight-gain; prediction; autonomic balance; electrocardiography; Psychiatry; Psykiatri; Psychiatry; Psykiatri;

    Sammanfattning : Our knowledge of prognostic factors and optimal treatment organisation in schizophrenia is incomplete. The disparity of outcome measures used has been a major obstacle for research. Increasing evidence has shown that schizophrenia is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality, development of obesity and autonomic nervous system imbalance. LÄS MER

  3. 38. The diagnostic challenge of Parkinsonian syndromes. Clinical and laboratory evaluation

    Författare :Björn Holmberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Parkinson s disease; MSA; PSP; autonomic tests; differential diagnosis; levodopa test; NFL; GFAP;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The differentiation between Parkinson's disease (PD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and multiple system atrophy (MSA) may be difficult, but it is important for prognostic and therapeutic purposes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the differential diagnostic capacity of laboratory tests in a population of patients fulfilling strict clinical criteria for these disorders. LÄS MER

  4. 39. Immunofluorescence Investigation on Neuroendocrine Secretory Protein 55 (NESP55) in Nervous Tissues

    Författare :Yongling Li; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NESP55; neuropeptdides; chromogranins; the CAD cell line; rat; spinal cord; sympathetic ganglia; retrograde tracing; immunofluorescence; confocal microscopy; secretory pathway;

    Sammanfattning : The chromogranin family is a group of acidic, soluble, and heat-stable proteins widespread in various neuronal, neuroendocrine and endocrine tissues, where they are subcellullarly located in the secretory granules, participating in the formation of the granules. Extracellularly, chromogranins may act as protein precursors, proteolytically processed to various small bioactive peptides. LÄS MER

  5. 40. Anatomical studies of the dopamine system in the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland

    Författare :Arash Hellysaz; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The hypothalamus is a small, evolutionarily conserved brain region, necessary for our survival as individuals and as a species. It collects various sensory inputs, process them to maintain homeostasis and to overcome stressors, and generates outputs that affect the autonomic nervous system, the endocrine system and somatomotor behaviors.
