  1. 26. Paediatric surgery in Uganda : burden of disease and barriers to quality of care

    Författare :Mary Margaret Ajiko; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: In recent years there has been an increased awareness of surgical conditions within global health. A special emphasis is needed for children which constitute a large proportion of the populations in many countries. Many surgical conditions affect children, and an estimated 85% of all children in LMIC aged 15 will require surgery. LÄS MER

  3. 27. Multifunctional roles of plasmin in inflammation : Studies of animal models on rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, wound healing and infection

    Författare :Jinan Li; Peter Carmeliet; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Plasmin; complement; inflammation; wound healing; infection; autoimmune disease; non-autoimmune disease; rheumatoid arthritis; multiple sclerosis; tympanic membrane; otitis media; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Plasmin has been suggested to be involved in degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and tissue remodeling during a number of physiological and pathological processes. The aims of this thesis were to study the functional roles of plasmin during pathological inflammation in autoimmune and nonautoimmune disease models of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), multiple sclerosis (MS), wound healing and infection.

  4. 28. Features of adult neural progenitor cells

    Författare :Lisa Arvidsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :adult neural progenitor cell;

    Sammanfattning : The adult Central Nervous System (CNS) harbors neural progenitor cells (NPCs) in three areas: the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the lateral ventricles and the subgranular zone in the hippocampus and around the central canal in the spinal cord. The NPCs can be isolated and cultured in vitro. LÄS MER

  5. 29. Regulation of mucosal inflammation by fibroblasts

    Författare :Tanya (De L.) Karlson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :inflammatory bowel diseases; fibroblasts; CD40; C-EBPbeta; apoptosis; TGF-beta;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Acute inflammation in the bowel, a response of the immune system to infections or trauma, is probably a frequent but localized event, but when the barrier is repaired and the infection cleared, it is quickly followed by wound healing and resolution. However, in some individuals these mechanisms are not effective and the inflammatory bowel diseases, Crohn?s disease and ulcerative colitis result. LÄS MER

  7. 30. Aspects of endoscopic interventions of the upper gastrointestinal tract

    Författare :John Blomberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography;

    Sammanfattning : Interventional endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract is a rapidly evolving surgical discipline that minimizes the surgical trauma. Yet, complications occur that sometimes are severe. LÄS MER
