  1. 16. On the pathophysiology of idiopathic adult hydrosephalus syndrome : energy metabolism, protein patterns, and intracranial pressure

    Författare :Aina Ågren Wilsson; Per Enblad; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :hydrocephalus; biochemical markers; microdialysis; cerebrospinal fluid; B waves; brain tissue oxygen tension; Neurology; neurologi;

    Sammanfattning : The symptoms in Idiopathic Adult Hydrocephalus Syndrome (IAHS) – gait disturbance, incontinence, and cognitive deficit – correlate anatomically to neuronal dysfunction in periventricular white matter. The pathophysiology is considered to include a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) hydrodynamic disturbance, including pressure oscillations (“B waves”), in combination with cerebrovascular disease. LÄS MER

  3. 17. The Role of Transesophageal Echocardiography in Clinical Decision-Making in Patients with Stroke or Atrial Fibrillation

    Författare :Anders Roijer; Kardiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kardiovaskulära systemet; Cardiovascular system; stroke; cardioversion; Transesophageal echocardiography; embolic sources; atrial fibrillation;

    Sammanfattning : The subject of this thesis is the clinical use of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in patients with stroke or atrial fibrillation. Subjects were examined with echocardiography and sonography of the carotid artery. A control group of randomly selected volunteers without cerebrovascular disease was compared to patients with ischemic stroke. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Prostaglandin E2 in immune-to-brain signaling

    Författare :David Engblom; Tamas Bartfai; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Upon immune-challenge, signaling from the immune system to the brain triggers an array of central nervous responses that include fever, anorexia, hyperalgesia and activation of the hypothalamus-pituitary adrenal axis. These symptoms are dependent on cytokines produced at the site of inflammation. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Studies on Neuropsychiatric Manifestations and Genetic Factors in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

    Författare :Andreas Jönsen; Reumatologi och molekylär skelettbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Skeleton; Genetics; Systemic Lupus Erythematosus; Neuropsychiatric; rheumatology locomotion; Skelett; muskelsystem; reumatologi; muscle system;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease encompassing a wide range of symptoms that can emanate from pathology in virtually any organ system. Severe SLE includes involvement of the central nervous system and kidneys. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Molecular studies of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome

    Författare :Hanna Sagelius; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a very rare genetic disease, with an incidence of 1 in 4-8 million live births, that causes segmental premature aging in children. The children look normal at birth but begin to develop symptoms of disease within the first years of life. LÄS MER
