    Nyckelord :Medicine; epidemiology; asthma; respiratory symptoms; prevalence; incidence; indoor dampness; body mass index; gastroesophageal reflux; snoring; indoor allergens; house dust mites; moulds; bacteria; Medicin;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aims of our studies were to identify risk factors for respiratory symptoms and asthma in indoor environment but even to look at some personal risk factors such as body mass index and gastroesophageal reflux. The study population is based on participants of the European Community Respiratory Health Survey I and II. LÄS MER

  3. 22. The role of inflammatory cells in sarcoidosis and asthma

    Författare :Mu Nie; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Immuno-homeostasis refers to maintaining a delicate balance between immune responses and tolerance. It relies on the harmonious interplay of various inflammatory cells, including macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells, T cells, mast cells, etc. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Astma är en kronisk inflammatorisk luftvägssjukdom som förekommer i hög - och enligt rapporter ökande - frekvens världen över. Defmitionen av astma inkluderar varierande luftvägsobstruktion och ökad bronkiell reaktivhet gentemot olika stimuli. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Functional studies of T-cells in rheumatoid arthritis

    Författare :Louise Berg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :T-cells; Rheumatoid arthritis; inflammation; cytokines; collagen type II; immunomodulation;

    Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory disease with autoimmune features primarily affecting the joints. The etiology of RA is largely unknown but involvement of the immune system in the disease process is evident from the infiltration of leukocytes into the joint, and by the production of proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines and proteases, mainly by macrophages.

  7. 25. Airway allergic inflammation. A role of bone marrow and relationship to substance P

    Författare :Masafumi Tomaki; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; asthma; eosinophils; bone marrow; T lymphocytes; IL-3; IL-5; GM-CSF; substance P.;

    Sammanfattning : Airway inflammation, along with reversible airway narrowing and airway hyperresponsiveness, is a central pathophysiological feature of bronchial asthma. The airway inflammation in asthma is dominated by eosinophils, cells that originate in the bone marrow. LÄS MER
