1. 26. Influence of extrinsic factors on bone scintigraphy an experimental and clinical study

   Författare :Marika Cronhjort; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Bone scintigraphy; bisphosphonates; biodistribution; animal;

   Sammanfattning : Bone scintigraphy takes advantage of the strong affinity of technetiated diphosphonates to bone. These compounds accumulate particularly at sites of new bone formation which occurs as a response to various conditions affecting bone. LÄS MER

3. 27. Effect of Probiotics on Caries-related Variables

   Författare :Sahal Alforaidi; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bacterial interference; ; Caries; Caries prevention; ; Dental biofilm; ; Dental plaque; ; Lactobacilli; Lactobacillus reuteri; ; Streptococcus mutans; ; Plaque acidogenicity; ; Probiotics; qPCR; Saliva; Virulence;

   Sammanfattning : In relation to the caries disease, the aims of this thesis were to investigate the effect of probiotic drops on different caries-related variables in vivo (Papers I & III), on interference capability and genetic response to different metabolites in vitro (II) and systematically to review the best mode and dose of administration based on the examined oral outcomes (IV). The effects on colonisation and cariogenic bacteria were studied in plaque and saliva via plating and qPCR-analyses in teenagers and orthodontic patients after short-term exposure. LÄS MER

4. 28. The effect of malnutrition on saliva composition and caries development

   Författare :Ingegerd Johansson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :starvation; protein-deficiency; antibacterial proteins; saliva; caries; infection;

   Sammanfattning : Starvation and protein deficiency increase susceptibility to infec­tions in general and affect the function of various types of cells individually. Saliva contains substances which offer protection to the oral tissues. Its composition and secretion rate may be important in preventing the development of disease, e.g. LÄS MER

5. 29. Effects of testosterone treatment on metabolism and endometrium in postmenopausal women

   Författare :Hong Zang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Testosterone; insulin sensitivity; body composition; lipids; lipolysis; endometrial proliferation; sex hormone recep tors; menopause.;

   Sammanfattning : There is an increasing interest in androgen treatment of postmenopausal women. Testosterone administered to surgically or naturally postmenopausal women improves sexual function, wellbeing and quality of life. Androgens have also an additional positive effect on bone mineral density as compared to estrogen alone and may be protective in the breast. LÄS MER

7. 30. Cardioprotective mechanisms by inhibition of the HMG-CoA reductase pathway and stimulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors in myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion

   Författare :Aliaksandr Bulhak; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Endothelial function; endothelin-1; geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate; HMG-CoA reductase; infarct size; ischaemiareperfusion injury; myeloperoxidase; myocardium; nitric oxide; nitric oxide synthase; peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha; -gamma; PPAR-alpha; -gamma-ligands; RhoA; statins.;

   Sammanfattning : Acute myocardial ischaemia causes metabolic changes and results in a rapid decrease in the energy available to the cell. This leads to cell injury that, depending on the length of the ischaemic time, is reversible or irreversible. LÄS MER
