  1. 1. A Fully Integrated Microneedle-based Transdermal Drug Delivery System

    Författare :Niclas Roxhed; Göran Stemme; Mark G. Allen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microneedle; Transdermal; Intradermal; Drug delivery; DRIE; MEMS; Microsystem; Medical technology; Medicinsk teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Patch-based transdermal drug delivery offers a convenient way to administer drugs without the drawbacks of standard hypodermic injections relating to issues such as patient acceptability and injection safety. However, conventional transdermal drug delivery is limited to therapeutics where the drug can diffuse across the skin barrier. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Study of pruritus in psoriasis vulgaris : role of tachykinins

    Författare :Beni Amatya; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Itch; pruritus; psoriasis; tachykinin; questionnaire; focus group; intradermal injection;

    Sammanfattning : Pruritus has not been considered as the most important symptom of psoriasis. In the present thesis various methodologies have been used to investigate this symptom in psoriasis. The focus groups created a proper atmosphere for discussion on different aspects of pruritus in psoriasis. Pruritus was most common on the lower back and legs. LÄS MER
