1. 11. In vitro and in vivo studies of artemisinin endoperoxides

   Författare :Therese Ericsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Artemisinin; Artesunate; Breast cancer; Cytochrome P450; Dihydroartemisinin; Inhibition; LC-MS MS; Pharmacokinetics; Plasma; Saliva;

   Sammanfattning : Artemisinin and its semi-synthetic derivatives (eg. Artemether/ARM, artesunate/ARS, dihydroartemisinin/DHA) play an important role in combating malaria, and treatments containing an artemisinin derivative (artemisinin-based combination therapies, ACTs) are today the standard treatment worldwide for Plasmodium falciparum malaria.

3. 12. On Minor Salivary Gland Secretion

   Författare :Lars Eliasson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; age; dental plaque pH; dentures; gender; health; IgA; medication; minor salivary glands; oral dryness; saliva; salivary secretion rate;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this series of studies has been to examine palatal, buccal and labial minor salivary gland secretions in relation to age and gender and other factors and conditions that could have effects on the saliva. Further aims were to analyze minor salivary gland secretions in relation to feelings of oral dryness and dental plaque pH. LÄS MER

4. 13. Stress in infants and parents : Studies of salivary cortisol, behaviour and psychometric measures

   Författare :Evalotte Mörelius; Nina Nelson; Elvar Theodorsson; Uwe Ewald; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Stress; Infants; Prematura childern; Intensive care; neonatal; saliva; Chemistry; Glucose; Hydrocortisone; Paediatric medicine; Pediatrisk medicin;

   Sammanfattning : The life of a preterm infant admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit may be stressful from the moment of birth. Ever since Hans Selye’s initial characterisation of the biological stress response, cortisol has been frequently measured as an indicator of stress responsivity. LÄS MER

5. 14. Effect of Probiotics on Caries-related Variables

   Författare :Sahal Alforaidi; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bacterial interference; ; Caries; Caries prevention; ; Dental biofilm; ; Dental plaque; ; Lactobacilli; Lactobacillus reuteri; ; Streptococcus mutans; ; Plaque acidogenicity; ; Probiotics; qPCR; Saliva; Virulence;

   Sammanfattning : In relation to the caries disease, the aims of this thesis were to investigate the effect of probiotic drops on different caries-related variables in vivo (Papers I & III), on interference capability and genetic response to different metabolites in vitro (II) and systematically to review the best mode and dose of administration based on the examined oral outcomes (IV). The effects on colonisation and cariogenic bacteria were studied in plaque and saliva via plating and qPCR-analyses in teenagers and orthodontic patients after short-term exposure. LÄS MER

7. 15. On Fluoridation of Chewing Sticks (Miswaks) with Respect to Dental Caries

   Författare :Hosam A Baeshen; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Approximal area; caries lesions; chewing stick Miswak ; fluoride; fluoride retention; fluoride solution; fluoride toothpaste; impregnation; orthodontic patients; saliva; Salvadora Persica;

   Sammanfattning : The chewing stick known as a “Miswak” is a natural toothbrush that is widely used for cleaning the teeth. It has been used for thousands of years in Asia, Africa and the Middle East. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the Miswak as a vehicle for fluoride delivery in the oral cavity. LÄS MER
