1. 1. Coeliac disease : Clinical and immunological aspects

   Författare :Tony Hansson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; Coeliac disease; cytokines; TGF-beta; tissue transglutaminase; IL-4; IFN-gamma; TNF-alpha; ELISPOT; anti-endomysiumantibodies; anti-gliadin antibodies; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; Klinisk immunologi; Clinical Immunology;

   Sammanfattning : A better immunological definition of coeliac disease and highly discriminatory serum markers are needed to identify children with early mucosal lesions and for rapid follow-up and a better knowledge of antigen reactivity and cytokine production will be needed to clarify the pathogenic mechanisms.The numbers of circulating IgAanti-gliadin antibody-producing (IgAAGA SFC) cells were increased in patients with untreated coeliac disease compared to controls and treated coeliac disease patients.

3. 2. Hyperthyroidism : a chronic disease?

   Författare :Gabriel Sjölin; Göran Wallin; Mikael Lantz; Laszlo Hegedus; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hyperthyroidism; Graves’ disease; toxic nodular goitre; longterm follow-up; Quality of Life; radioactivated iodine; antithyroid drugs; thyroidectomy; index patient;

   Sammanfattning : During 2003-2005, approximately 3,000 de novo hyperthyroid patients were collected in Sweden and became one of the world's largest hyperthyroidism studies. This dissertation shows that many people diagnosed with hyperthyroidism live with its impacts even after excess of thyroid hormone has ended. LÄS MER

5. 4. Mass screening for celiac disease in 12-year-olds : Finding them and then what?

   Författare :Anna Rosén; Anneli Ivarsson; Olof Sandström; Hans Stenlund; Maria Emmelin; Claes Hallert; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adolescent; celiac disease; children; coeliac disease; focus groups; mass screening; qualitative methodology; questionnaire; transglutaminase antibodies; Epidemiology; epidemiologi; folkhälsa; Public health;

   Sammanfattning : Background Mass screening for celiac disease (CD) as a public health intervention is controversial. Before implementation, a suitable screening strategy should be outlined, and the acceptability of the screening scrutinized. Also, the benefits of early detection and possible negative consequences should be explored and compared. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Polyglandular Autoimmune (PGA) syndrome type II in idiopathic Addison's disease: In a retrospective study of idiopathic Ad-dison's disease (median age at diagnosis 32.5 years, range 8-62; median observation time 17 years, range 0.5-41), 50% met the criteria for PGA syndrome type II. In PGA syndrome type II, 73% had ATD and 41% had IDDM. LÄS MER
