  1. 1. Influence of depth of anesthesia on postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and inflammatory markers

    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Postoperative cognitive dysfunction; minor and major surgery; anaesthesia; depth of anaesthesia monitoring; auditory evoked potential; AAI; inflammatory marker; Medicin; Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Patients may suffer from various forms of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). In most cases, the impact on cognitive function is relatively transient but POCD can sometimes be long-lasting (> 1 year). Studies showing that up to one in four patients with known risk factors are affected by some form of cognitive loss. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Airborne nitric oxide : inflammatory marker and aerocrine messenger in man

    Författare :Jon Lundberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :ARDS; asthma; cystic fibrosis; cystitis; exhaled air; inflammatory bowel disease; inhaled nitric oxide; Kartagener s syndrome; nitric oxide synthase; sinusitis; ;

    Sammanfattning : We have used a chemiluminescence technique to measure gaseous nitric oxide (NO) directly in hollow organs of humans. NO production was studied in the airways of healthy controls and patients with chronic inflammatory airway disease, in the stomach of healthy subjects, in the colon of patients with inflammatory bowel disease, and in the urinary bladder of patients with cystitis.

  4. 3. Inflammatory bowel disease in twins : studies of genetics and environmental factors

    Författare :Jonas Halfvarson; Salvador Peña; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The aetiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is unknown but considered to be caused by interplay of genetic and environmental factors.The aims of this thesis were to study the influence of genetics and environmental factors in aetiology, disease phenotype and levels of Anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA), as well as to assess whether CARD15/NOD2 polymorphisms explain the influence of genetics in these aspects.

  5. 4. Serological and faecal biomarkers in inflammatory bowel disease

    Författare :Karin Amcoff; Jonas Halfvarson; Marie Carlsson; Hans Törnblom; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Crohn s disease; ulcerative colitis; inflammatory bowel disease; faecal calprotectin; antibodies; eosinophils; ECP; EDN;

    Sammanfattning : The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are relapsing and remitting disorders characterised by chronic inflammation at various sites in the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in diarrhoea and abdominal pain. Neither the aetiology nor the pathophysiology is yet fully understood, and there is currently no cure. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Bone mineral density in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease

    Författare :Susanne Schmidt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bone mineral density; inflammatory bowel disease; children; Crohn s disease; ulcerative colitis; vitamin D; parathyroid hormone; familial resemblance; body composition; growth;

    Sammanfattning : Low bone mineral density (BMD) has been highlighted as a potential problem in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is one of the most common chronic childhood diseases in the westernized world. The mechanisms behind reduced BMD in pediatric IBD are still not completely understood, but several factors that influence bone mineralization have been discussed. LÄS MER
