  1. 11. Peripheral and central effects of nerve regeneration : Experimental and clinical studies

    Författare :Thomas Hansson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : A nerve injury in the hand often results in profound abnmmalities in sensory perception despite careful alignment and microsurgical repair in order to facilitate accurate nerve regeneration. The present experimental and clinical studies were undertaken in an attempt to functionally evaluate peripheral and central effects of nerve regeneration. LÄS MER

  3. 12. The use of adipose derived stem cells in spinal cord and peripheral nerve repair

    Författare :Mallappa K Kolar; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; spinal cord injury; peripheral nerve injury; adipose derived stem cells; regeneration; neurotrophic factor; angiogenic factor;

    Sammanfattning : Clinically, injuries affecting the spinal cord or peripheral nerves can leave those affected with severe disability and, at present, there are limited options for treatment. Peripheral nerve injury with a significant gap between the proximal and distal stumps is currently treated with autologous nerve grafting but this is limited by availability of donor nerve and has associated morbidities.

  4. 13. Opioid-induced cholecystokinin release in the CNS-neurochemical mechanisms and effects of sciatic nerve lesion

    Författare :Henrik Gustafsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Cholecystokinin (CCK) and opioid peptides have a similar distribution in the nervous system and CCK has been demonstrated to counteract opioid-induced analgesia at spinal and supraspinal level. An increased spinal release of CCK has been suggested to be a mechanism for the relative resistance to opioid analgesic drug in certain pain conditions following nerve lesions (i. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Studies on the overactive bladder with special reference to diagnosis, classification and surgical treatment

    Författare :Christer Edlund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Unstable detrusor; overactive bladder; detrusor hyperreflexia; lidocaine; electric nerve stimulation; neuromodulation; sacral nerve stimulation; urodynamics.;

    Sammanfattning : The overactive bladder (OB) is a symptom of disturbed neuromuscular control of the lower urinary tract. The cause is sometimes obvious, but even a lesion that is minor and difficult to detect might be of significance. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Genetics and inflammation in nerve injury-induced neurodegeneration

    Författare :Olle Lidman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Axotomy; Motoneuron; Neurodegeneration; Immunity; Microglia; MHC; QTL Mapping.;

    Sammanfattning : Neurodegeneration and inflammation are characteristic of many diseases of the central nervous system (CNS) and understanding the molecular networks that regulate these processes is of central importance for the development of effective therapies. Although the CNS has traditionally been regarded as an immuno privileged organ, immune reactions, including components of both local innate and systemic immunity, do occur in this tissue. LÄS MER
