  1. 21. Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome : a disorder of cholesterol synthesis : diagnosis, treatment and pathogenetic aspects

    Författare :Lena Starck; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome; cholesterol; cholesterol treatment; dehydrocholesterols; lathosterol; oxysterols; blood paper specimens; simvastatin; clinical scoring.;

    Sammanfattning : In 1993 it was first suggested that the Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS), described almost 30 years earlier as a malformation syndrome, is caused by defective synthesis of cholesterol. Hypocholesterolaemia and accumulation of the immediate precursor 7-dehydrocholesterol was consistent with deficient activity of the enzyme in the last step of the synthesis, 7-dehydrocholesterol-7-reductase.

  3. 22. Evaluation of medical and/or surgical treatment of anosmia/hyposmia in association with inflammatory disease of the upper airway

    Författare :Ebba Hedén Blomqvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Nasal polyposis; olfaction; medical surgical treatment; corticosteroids; scoring; staging; endoscopy; symptoms; anosmia; hyposmia; olfactory threshold test butanol ; computed tomography; sinuses; well-being; clinical; evaluation;

    Sammanfattning : Background: There is a lack of evidence-based, prospective studies in treatment of nasal polyposis. The correlations between symptoms, polyp scores and computed tomography (CT) scans have not been studied sufficiently. Little, if any, sense of smell is common in nasal inflammatory disease. LÄS MER

  4. 23. MRI assessment of haemophilic arthropathy

    Författare :Björn Lundin; Lund Diagnostisk radiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering; medical instrumentation; tomography; radiology; Clinical physics; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Arthropathy; Factor VIII; Factor IX; MRI; Haemophilia; Klinisk fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Haemophilia is a recessive genetic bleeding disorder in which coagulation time is prolonged due to the absence or malfunction of either of the serum proteins Factor VIII or IX. Joint destruction following repeated haemarthroses is the main cause of morbidity in haemophiliacs, and such arthropathy can be prevented or postponed by implementing prophylactic therapy with factor concentrate at an early age.

  5. 24. Cervical cancer prevention Studies on possible improvements

    Författare :Björn Strander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; cytology; colposcopy; HPV; cervical neoplasm; epidemiology; treatment; follow up;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: The aim of this study is to target and assess possible improvements for women attending cervical cancer screening programs. Methods: In a randomized study the use of ThinPrep liquid based cytology (LBC) was tested against conventional cytology. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Population-based studies in Myelodysplastic syndromes : Prognostic scores, socioeconomic status, and therapy-related disease

    Författare :Daniel Moreno Berggren; Elisabeth Ejerblad; Sören Lehmann; Martin Jädersten; David Bowen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Myelodysplastic syndromes; Chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia; Prognostication; Comorbidity; Therapy-related disease; Real-world data; Population-based studies; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to expand the epidemiological knowledge of the haematological malignancy MDS and the related condition chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML). Using nationwide registers, the papers in this thesis address aspects of prognostication, comorbidity, socioeconomic status, and therapy-related disease, using a population-based approach. LÄS MER
