    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

  3. 22. On the cytotoxic and proinflammatory properties of eosinophils

    Författare :Terese Dajotoy; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi; bacteriology; Microbiology; CXC chemokines; inflammation; eosinophils; cytotoxic mechanisms;

    Sammanfattning : Eosinophils are multi-functional leukocytes involved in the pathophysiology of inflammatory diseases such as asthma and inflammatory bowel disease. Participation in some neoplastic diseases and in the host defense against helminths has also been postulated. They are considered both good and bad, protecting or harming the host. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Pollinosis in children with special reference to the development of asthma

    Författare :Hosne Ara Ferdousi; Leif Rosenhall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Children with rhinoconjunctivitis and increased bronchial hyperreactivity (BHR) are prone to develop asthma later in life. Eosinophil granule proteins in serum are indirect measures of eosinophil activity and regarded as markers of inflammation. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Studies on sensitization and atopic disease in infants and children

    Författare :Nele Sigurs; Inga-Lisa Strannegård; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Sensitization to food allergens dominated in infancy and IgE antibodies to inhalant allergens appeared later in a cross-sectional multicentre study of 224 children with atopic disease (113 children aged 0-3 years and 111 children aged 4-15 years). IgE antibodies to peanut, hazelnut, and almond were important in both age groups and even before known ingestion in infancy, suggesting sensitization through breast-milk. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Exhaled Breath Condensate in Obstructive Lung Diseases : A Methodological study

    Författare :Anette Davidsson; Birgitta Schmekel; Rolf Andersson; Sven‐Erik Dahlén; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are two common inflammatory airway diseases characterized by airway inflammation and mucus hypersecretion. Prediction of the outcome of these diseases may not be performed and the need for non-invasive diagnostic tools capable of identifying inflammation in asthma and COPD becomes therefore obvious.
