6. Bioengineering and Cell-derived Strategies for Salivary Gland Regeneration
Sammanfattning : Xerostomia (dry mouth symptoms) is a group of incurable debilitating conditions of salivary glands caused by aging, radiation/chemical exposure, or aberrant inflammation in the salivary glands. During this PhD thesis, we aimed to evaluate whether cell-derived strategies (e.g. LÄS MER
7. Unstimulated human whole saliva flow rate in relation to hyposalivation and dental caries
Sammanfattning : Introduction: Salivary secretion is influenced by a large number of factors, including the circadian rhythm, making the detection of reduced salivary flow (hyposalivation) difficult. This is important since severely reduced salivary secretion has been associated with an increased risk for dental caries and may be a sign of a general disease, e.g. LÄS MER
8. Collagenous colitis. Epidemiology, risk factors, clinical presentation and associated autoimmune disorders
Sammanfattning : Collagenous colitis (CC) affects middle-aged women and results in chronic watery non-bloody diarrhoea. The incidence of CC has increased but has never been determined in southern Sweden. During the period 2001-2010 the mean annual incidence was stable; 5.4/105 (median age 71 years). LÄS MER
