  1. 1. Endocannabinoids and Related Lipids in Chronic Pain : Analytical and Clinical Aspects

    Författare :Niclas Stensson; Bijar Ghafouri; Björn Gerdle; Nazdar Ghafouri; Christopher Fowler; Per-Johan Jakobsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : In Europe, approximately one in five adults experience chronic pain, pain that lasts more than three months. Chronic pain is a significant problem not only for those people suffering from chronic pain but also for society. The prevalence of chronic pain is higher in women and lower socioeconomic groups.

  3. 2. Proteomics of the upper airways : studies on a new lipopolysaccharide-binding protein, PLUNC

    Författare :Bijar Ghafouri; Bo Jonsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : There is now significant interest in identifying, quantifying and characterizing the human proteome, and new powerful techniques (proteomics) have evolved to deal with this giant task. In the present study, proteomics have been applied for the first time to map the proteins of the upper airways. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Endocannabinoids and N-acylethanolamines in translational pain research : from monoacylglycerol lipase to muscle pain

    Författare :Nazdar Ghafouri; Christopher J Fowler; Andrew SC Rice; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Monoacylglycerol lipase; endocannabinoid; palmitoylethanolamide; N-acylethanolamines; microdialysis; chronic widespread pain; muscle pain; trapezius;

    Sammanfattning : In the early nineties cannabinoid receptors, the main target for Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive component of marijuana were identified. Shortly after their endogenous ligands, N-arachidonoylethanolamine (anandamide, AEA) and 2-diacylglycerol (2-AG) were characterized. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The Cerebrospinal Fluid in Severe Pain Conditions : Clinical, Pharmacological and Proteomic Aspects

    Författare :Emmanuel Bäckryd; Björn Gerdle; Jan Sörensen; Britt Larsson; Bijar Ghafouri; Mads Werner; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The treatment of both cancer pain and non-cancer chronic pain is still suboptimal. The overall aim of this PhD thesis was to conduct translational pain research at the interface between clinical pain medicine and the field of human proteomics, using the practice of intrathecal analgesia at our institution as a starting point.

  7. 5. The Temporomandibular Joint in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis : Psychosocial, clinical, imaging and parotid saliva biomarkers

    Författare :Alexandra Dimitrijevic Carlsson; Per Alstergren; Kerstin Wahlund; Carin Starkhammar Johansson; Martina. Frodlund; Bijar Ghafouri; Robin Kahn; Malmö universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biomarkers; Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis; Magnetic resonance imaging; Orofacial pain; Parotid gland; Plasma; Psychological distress; Psychosocial; Saliva; Stress; Temporomandibular joint; Biomarkörer; Juvenil idiopatisk artrit; Käkled; Magnetisk resonanstomografi; Orofacial smärta; Saliv; Spottkörtel; Stress;

    Sammanfattning : Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common rheumatic disease in children. The disease can affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and cause orofacial growth disturbances, pain, and jaw dysfunction. TMJ arthritis is often asymptomatic and therefore a challenging joint to diagnose. LÄS MER
