  1. 1. Welander distal myopathy : clinical and genetic studies

    Författare :Gabrielle Åhlberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Welander distal myopathy; neurogenic component; rimmed vacuoles; linkage; chromosome 2p13; candidate genes; common founder; homozygous form; variable clinical expression;

    Sammanfattning : Distal myopathies are a group of muscular disorders described in many countries with different inheritance patterns and variable progression rates. Welander distal myopathy (WDM) is characterised by autosomal dominant inheritance, late onset and distal distribution of muscular weakness. Most cases originate from the middle parts of Sweden.

  3. 2. Pain following spinal cord injury

    Författare :Cecilia Norrbrink Budh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Spinal cord injury; pain; neurogenic pain; neuropathic pain; gender; analgesics; opiates; nonpharmacological treatments; quality of sleep.;

    Sammanfattning : The aims of this thesis were to assess and characterise nociceptive and neuropathic pain, the use of pharmacological and non-pharmacological pain treatment, and the influence of pain on the quality of sleep in a population following spinal cord injury (SCI). This thesis is divided into five separate studies: I. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Genetic association studies of symptoms, comorbidity and outcome in bipolar disorder and schizophrenia

    Författare :Dzana Sudic Hukic; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are complex brain disorders. Research has focused on applying brain research to understand the etiology, as well as clinical research to improve treatment, prognosis and progression. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Inflammation and behavior following irradiation-induced injury in the developing brain

    Författare :Marie Kalm; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :radiotherapy; neuroinflammation; microglia; memory; cognition; hippocampus;

    Sammanfattning : Radiotherapy is used in the treatment of pediatric brain tumors and is often associated with debilitating late effects, such as intellectual impairment. Areas in the brain harboring stem cells are particularly sensitive to irradiation (IR) and loss of these cells may contribute to cognitive deficits. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Phenotypic Specification of Striatal Progenitors; Evidence for both cell-autonomous and environmental control as studied by transplantation into the adult and developing rodent brain

    Författare :Martin Olsson; Neurobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; striatal projection neurons; striatal development; somatostatin; parvalbumin; neuronal differentiation; neural transplantation; medial ganglionic eminence; lateral ganglionic eminence; forebrain dvelopment; cholinergic; embryonic; thyroid transcription fa; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The striatum is the major component of the ventral telencephalon and basal ganglia, involved in the processing of cortical information. The vast majority of the neuronal population in the striatum are striatal projection neurons, with connection to the globus pallidus and substantia nigra. LÄS MER
