21. An exploration of the mechanisms behind peripheral nerve injury
Sammanfattning : Despite surgical innovation, the sensory and motor outcome after peripheral nerve injury is incomplete. In this thesis, the biological pathways potentially responsible for the poor functional recoveries were investigated in both the distal nerve stump/target organ, spinal motoneurons and dorsal root ganglia (DRG).

22. Oligodendrocyte pathology following Traumatic Brain Injury : Experimental and clinical studies
Sammanfattning : Traumatic brain injury (TBI) caused by traffic and fall accidents, sports-related injuries and violence commonly results in life-changing disabilities. Cognitive impairments following TBI may be due to disruption of axons, stretched by the acceleration/deceleration forces of the initial impact, and their surrounding myelin in neuronal networks.

23. Renal injury in liver transplantation clinical and mechanistic studies
Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Background: Renal injury in liver transplantation (LT) is common and presents both as early and late insufficiency. These conditions are interconnected and have substantial impact on the long-term outcome. LÄS MER
24. Fatigue after traumatic brain injury : exploring novel methods for diagnosis and treatment
Sammanfattning : Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most common causes of disability and mortality. While some patients recover quickly, especially at the mild side of the injury severity continuum, many will experience symptoms for years to come. LÄS MER
25. Injury-induced activation of vascular smooth muscle cells. Role of specific gene expression and intracellular signalling pathways
Sammanfattning : Migration and proliferation of smooth muscle cells (SMC) are important events in the development of atherosclerosis and restenosis following angioplastic surgery. It is important to gain further knowledge about the mechanisms regulating SMC form and function in order to understand the underlying disease process. LÄS MER
