  1. 6. Studies on the Epidemiology and Outcome of Primary Systemic Vasculitis

    Författare :Aladdin Mohammad; Njurmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; polyarteritis nodosa; survival; microscopic polyangiitis; arteritis; vasculitis damage index; Vasculitis; ANCA; Wegener s granulomatosis; Churg-Strauss syndrome;

    Sammanfattning : Primary Systemic Vasculitides [PSV: Wegener's granulomatosis (WG), microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), Churg-Strauss syndrome (CSS) and polyarteritis nodosa (PAN)] are rare systemic diseases of unknown etiology; if untreated, they are associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Changes in the classification and diagnostic improvements during the last decades have increased reported prevalence and incidence rates of PSV. LÄS MER

  3. 7. The Importance of Demographic and Geographical Factors on the Incidence and Outcome of Systemic Small Vessel Vasculitis Associated with Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies

    Författare :Maria Weiner; Mårten Segelmark; Per Eriksson; Øyvind Palm; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV) comprise microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA). Two serotypes are recognized: myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA and proteinase 3 (PR3)-ANCA. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Genetic Contributions to Manifestations and Prognosis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

    Författare :Sarah Reid; Dag Leonard; Timothy Niewold; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Systemic lupus erythematosus; genetics; cardiovascular disease; polygenic risk score; smoking; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a severe autoimmune disease with a multifactorial aetiology and an extremely heterogenous clinical picture. This thesis explores the impact of SLE genetic variants, through their cumulative effect or gene-environment interactions, on SLE manifestations and complications. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Diagnostic and prognostic aspects of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies in systemic vasculitis

    Författare :Daina Selga; Njurmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi; serology; epitope; Wegener s granulomatosis; microscopic polyangiitis; polyarteritis nodosa; capture ELISA; Immunology; anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody; proteinase 3; vasculitis; nephrology; Urologi; nefrologi; Urology;

    Sammanfattning : Primary systemic vasculitis is associated with a high mortality if left untreated and it is essential to make the diagnosis before permanent organ damage has occurred. In this thesis the diagnostic and prognostic significance of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in systemic vasculitis is investigated. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Urologic and metabolic consequences of continent urostomy (Kock reservoir) in children and adolescents

    Författare :Gamal Abd El-Gawad; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Urinary diversion; Continent ileal urostomy; Kock pouch; Complication; Enterocystography; Enterocystometry; Urography; B12; Folic acid; MMA; Quality of life.;

    Sammanfattning : During the last decades, urinary diversion using an intestinal segment has been commonly used in children and adolescents. Kock pouch is a feasible alternative for the children in need of a continent diversion where other alternatives such as Mitrofanoff are excluded for various reasons. LÄS MER
