41. Clinical and Experimental Approach to the Benefits and Risks of Laser Treatment for Diabetic Macular Edema
Sammanfattning : Diabetic retinopathy is an ophthalmic complication of diabetes that currently affects 93 million people worldwide. Diabetic macular edema is a subtype of diabetic retinopathy that is characterized by leaking blood vessels in the central part of the retina, and it is a major cause of vision loss in individuals with diabetes.

42. Immunomodulation by intravenous immunoglobulin : the effect on cytokine production studied at the single-cell level
Sammanfattning : Preparations of pooled human immunoglobulin for intravenous use (IVIg) have an established therapeutic role in immunodeficiencies, Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura and Kawasaki's disease and has been attempted in other immunologically mediated conditions including autoimmunity, malignancies, bone marrow transplantation and serious infections such as group A streptococcal toxic shock syndrome. The effects of IVIg on cytokine synthesis in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was studied in vitro by applying a new immunohistochemical method for detection of cytokine production at a single cell level.

43. Oral and Oropharyngeal Cancer - Aspects on Epidemiology and Prognostic Markers
Sammanfattning : Head and neck cancer is a heterogeneous group of tumours, although histopathologically, >95% are squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). Some tumours respond better to therapy than others. Not enough is known to predict the outcome and tailor individualised treatment. LÄS MER
44. Novel immunologic cellular mechanisms in atherosclerosis and potential therapeutic implications
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis, an arterial ailment, is a major cause of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), which cause more than 17 million deaths each year and the number is expected to rise. In recent years atherosclerosis has been shown to be an inflammatory condition involving activated immunocompetent cells, including T-cells, macrophages and dendritic cells (DC), but the mechanism by which these cells are activated remains to be elucidated in detail.

45. Pharmacological targeting of mutant p53 family members
Sammanfattning : The tumor suppressor p53 serves as a guardian of the genome and functions mainly as a transcription factor. In response to various stress signals p53 binds to specific DNA sequence motifs and regulates transcription of a large group of target genes involved in cellular processes such as cell cycle arrest, senescence and apoptosis.
