  1. 1. Oxidized nucleotides as a predictor of radiation sensitivity

    Författare :Ali Pour Khavari; Siamak Haghdoost; Marie Öhman; Anders Nilsson; Bo Stenerlöw; Neus Visa; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 8-oxo-dG; Radiation; Sensitivity; Oxidized; Nucleotides; ROS; NOS; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : The direct and indirect effects of IR can lead to DNA damage and activation of DNA repair. The indirect effects of ionizing radiation mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) which produced through radiolysis of water and if not taken care of by the antioxidant system, can also give rise to oxidative stress.

    Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori and Chlamydia pneumoniae are common infectious agents in the Swedish population, causing gastritis ulcers and respiratory infections. The metabolic syndrome is characterised by overweight, insulin resistance, hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidaemia. LÄS MER

  3. 3. IgA Nephropathy – Mucosal Immunity and Treatment Options

    Författare :Hilde Kloster Smerud; Bengt Fellström; Gudjon Kristjansson; Roger Hällgren; Johan W. de Fijter; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; IgA nephropathy; mucosal immunity; gastrointestinal sensitivity; food allergens; pharmacological treatment; budesonide; statin; clinical trial; renal transplantation; recurrence; Internal Medicine; Internmedicin;

    Sammanfattning : In the present studies we have explored the link between food hypersensitivity and IgA nephropathy (IgAN) and evaluated treatment options in primary and recurrent disease. Approximately one third of our IgAN patients had a rectal mucosal sensitivity to gluten, as demonstrated by increased local mucosal nitric oxide production and/or myeloperoxidase release after gluten challenge.

  4. 4. The significance of low-grade inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract

    Författare :David Lundgren; Pontus Karling; Mårten Werner; Klas Sjöberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Low-grade inflammation; gastrointestinal tract; faecal calprotectin; inflammatory bowel disease; Ulcerative colitis; irritable bowel syndrome; biomarkers; colonoscopy; proton pump inhibitors; albumin; C-reactive protein; Medicine; medicin;

    Sammanfattning : BackgroundGastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are commonly reported in a normal population. Mostly, the symptoms are of benign cause but occasionally the symptoms can be signs of a more harmful disease. In general, it is difficult to distinguish whether the reported symptoms are caused by a benign (functional) or organic (i.e. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Faecal Calprotectin Diagnostics : Focus on Primary Care and Suspected Sources of Error

    Författare :Zlatica Rendek; Henrik Hjortswang; Magnus Falk; Ewa Grodzinsky; Stergios Kechagias; Mikael Lilja; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Calprotectin; Inflammatory bowel disease; Gastrointestinal disease; Primary health care; Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents; Proton pump inhibitors; Respiratory tract infection;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with gastrointestinal symptoms often present a diagnostic challenge for general practitioners. Faecal calprotectin (FC) is commonly used as a marker of intestinal inflammation and is useful for differentiating between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as well as for the follow-up of patients with IBD and monitoring treatment response.
