1. 26. Bone turnover markers and prediction of bone loss in elderly women

   Författare :Janaka Lenora; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bone turnover markers; DXA; elderly; osteoporosis; scintigraphy; Bone mineral density; quantitative ultrasound of the calcaneus; bone loss;

   Sammanfattning : Around 70,000 osteoporosis-related fractures occur in Sweden annually and approximately half of the women in western world will sustain a fragility fracture after the age of 50 years. Fracture preventive efforts require the identification of individuals who are at high risk. LÄS MER

3. 27. Myocardial angiogenesis induced by plasmid VEGF-A165 gene transfer : experimental and clinical studies

   Författare :Nondita Sarkar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Coronary artery disease; vascular endothelial growth factor; therapeutic angiogenesis; gene transfer; plasmid DNA; gene expression;

   Sammanfattning : New therapeutic options have emerged for patients with medically intractable angina who are not candidates for conventional revascularisation techniques, from increasing understanding of the biology of vessel formation and how different angiogenic growth factors participate in the process. Administration of vascular endothelial growth factor-A165 (VEGF-A165), a key regulator of vessel growth, has been shown to augment myocardial collateral growth. LÄS MER

4. 28. Teratogenicity as a consequence of drug-induced embryonic cardiac arrhythmia : Common mechanism for almokalant, sotalol, cisapride, and phenytoin via inhibition of IKr

   Författare :Anna-Carin Sköld; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical biosciences; IKr; delayed rectifying K channel; embryonic cardiac arrhythmia; teratogenicity; Farmaceutisk biovetenskap; Biopharmacy; Biofarmaci; Toxicology; toxikologi;

   Sammanfattning : During the last years, drugs that prolong the repolarisation phase of the myocardial action potential, due to inhibition of the rapid component of the delayed-rectifying potassium channel (IKr) have been in focus. In addition to arrhythmogenic potential, selective Ikr-blockers have also been shown to be embryotoxic and teratogenic in animal studies. LÄS MER

5. 29. Norm and difference : Stone Age dietary practice in the Baltic region

   Författare :Gunilla Eriksson; Kerstin Lidén; Birgit Arrhenius; Michael Richards; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; diet; norm; variation; Mesolithic; Neolithic; Sweden; Latvia; stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes; radiocarbon; reservoir effect; dogs; breastfeeding; gender; Archaeology subjects; Arkeologiämnen;

   Sammanfattning : Stone Age research on Northern Europe frequently makes gross generalizations about the Mesolithic and Neolithic, although we still lack much basic knowledge on how the people lived. The transition from the Mesolithic to the Neolithic in Europe has been described as a radical shift from an economy dominated by marine resources to one solely dependent on farming. LÄS MER

7. 30. The Urban Farmer : Osteoarchaeological Analysis of Skeletons from Medieval Sigtuna Interpreted in a Socioeconomic Perspective

   Författare :Anna Kjellström; Ebba During; Jan Storå; Sten Tesch; Berit Sellevold; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; urbanization; health index; Middle Ages; sex distribution; age distribution; dietary patterns; Archaeology subjects; Arkeologiämnen; arkeologi; Archaeology;

   Sammanfattning : At the end of the 10th century the first Swedish town Sigtuna was founded, which can be recognized as the beginning of urbanization in the Mälaren valley. Christianity was growing strong and the administrative power was probably concentrated to a few magnates gathered around a king. LÄS MER
