  1. 1. Vertigo as a companion through life : Empirical studies regarding psychological factors in Menière's disease

    Författare :Christina Hägnebo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; coping; emotions; Menière s disease; psychology; quality of life; stress; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi; klinisk psykologi; Clinical Psychology;

    Sammanfattning : Vertigo, tinnitus and hearing impairment constitute the cardinal symptoms in Menière'sdisease. This inner ear disorder, the aetiology of which is not fully understood, may causeconsiderable distress to the individual. Previous psychological research regardingMenière's disease has mainly focused on general personality traits. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Positional Cloning of Disease Causing Genes : A Genetic Study of Obesity, Ichthyosis Prematurity Syndrome and Meniere's Disease

    Författare :Joakim Klar; Niklas Dahl; Catharina Larsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; Positional cloning; Obesity; Ichthyosis; Meniere’s disease; RORa; PIK3C2G; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Positional cloning is a method to identify genes from their position in the genome without prior knowledge about function. We used this approach to investigate the basis for three distinct genetic disorders; Obesity, Ichthyosis Prematurity Syndrome and Meniere's disease. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Influence of middle ear pressure changes on labyrinthine hydrodynamics and hearing physiology

    Författare :Konrad Konradsson; Lund näs- och halssjukdomar Öron-; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; auditive system and speech; audiology; Pressure; Audiometry; Cats; Animal; Cochlea; Cochlear aqueduct; Ear; Eustachian tube; Hearing; Otorinolaryngologi; Human; Labyrinth; Otorhinolaryngology; Meniere s disease; audiologi; hörsel- och talorganen;

    Sammanfattning : Results from experimental studies, as well as clinical studies, are used to elucidate the effects of ambient pressure changes on cochlear hydrodynamics and function. The perilymph pressure changes and the pressure release effects of the cochlear aqueduct (CA) and Eustachian tube (ET) in cats exposed to hypobaric pressure are elucidated. LÄS MER

  4. 4. On Pressure Regulation of the Middle Ear

    Författare :Marianne Brattmo; allergi och livskvalitet Laryngoesofagologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chronic otitis media; Sniffing behaviour; Tubal opening; gas diffusion; Meniere s disease; Attic cholesteatoma; Chronic central perforation; Tympanic membrane; Continuous measurement; Middle ear pressure; Eustachian tube;

    Sammanfattning : The middle ear (ME) pressure is regulated by gas diffusion over the ME mucosa and pressure equalizations via the Eustachian tube (ET). Disturbance in the regulation of ME pressure is believed to contribute to the development of chronic ear diseases. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Pitch, loudness and frequency selectivity in low-frequency hearing loss

    Författare :Jonas Brännström; Lund näs- och halssjukdomar Öron-; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; frequency coding; Cochlea; frequency selectivity; hearing fluctuation; inner ear pressure; long-term measurement; Ménière s disease; low-frequency hearing loss; loudness; pitch.;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with Ménière's disease and cochlear hydrops show fluctuating low-frequency hearing loss (FLFHL). At present these changes are followed as patients' subjective reports and occasional measurements. LÄS MER
