1. 11. Retinal function in deaf-blind syndromes

   Författare :Eva Malm; Lund Oftalmologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; general anesthesia.; molecular genetics; hearing impairment; full-field electroretinography; Retinal degeneration;

   Sammanfattning : A variety of disorders can cause retinal degeneration and hearing impairment, and it is of great value to have an early diagnosis since there is a large variation in phenotype and prognosis both within and between the different disorders. The general aim of this thesis was to characterize the retinal function, to describe the phenotype, and – where appropriate – to relate the phenotype to genotype in patients with combined visual and hearing impairment.

   Sammanfattning : Background: Morale is a multidimensional concept, often defined as a future-oriented optimism or pessimism regarding the problems and opportunities associated with ageing. Very old people, older than 80 years, constitute an age group that is expected to increase in Europe from 4.7% of the general population today to 12. LÄS MER

7. 15. Clinical, histopathologic and genetic diagnosis in osteogenesis imperfecta and dentinogenesis imperfecta

   Författare :Barbro Malmgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Agenesis; DSPP gene; histopathology; impaction; inherited disorders; teeth;

   Sammanfattning : The aims of this thesis were to investigate (1) dental aberrations in a large sample of unrelated patients with different types and forms of OI, (2) degree of dentin dysplasia in relation to type and form of OI and clinical, radiographic, and microscopic manifestations and type of DI, and (3) genotypes and phenotypes in two families with DI type II with special reference to clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic manifestations. In study I, morphological and clinical variation in the expression of DI within one family was described. LÄS MER
