  1. 1. Non-enhanced single-energy computed tomography of urinary stones

    Författare :Johan Jendeberg; Mats Lidén; Per Thunberg; Anders Magnusson; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diagnostic; CT; urinary stone; kidney stone; urolithiasis; phlebolith; uric acid; spontaneous passage; CNN; artificial intelligence;

    Sammanfattning : Computed tomography (CT) is the mainstay imaging method for urinary stones.The aim of this thesis was to optimize the information obtained from the initial CT scan to allow a well-founded diagnosis and prognosis, and to guide the clinician as early and as far as possible in the further treatment of urinary stone disease.

  3. 2. Arthritogenecity of RNA and its degradation products

    Författare :Fariba Zare; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :dsRNA; ssRNA; virus; arthritis; TLR3; IL-1R; IFNalpha beta receptor; plasminogen; tissue factor; uric acid; inflammation; arthritis; neutrophils;

    Sammanfattning : Viral infections often lead to arthralgias and overt arthritic states. Expression of double stranded RNA (dsRNA) is a common feature of all viruses during their replication and it has been suggested that it is able to induce production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, e.g., interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha).

  4. 3. Chronic pain. Epidemiological studies in a general population

    Författare :Ingemar H Andersson; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; samhällsmedicin; Socialmedicin; Social medicine; epidemiology; chronic pain; diagnoses; health care; medication; smoking; uric acid; widespread pain;

    Sammanfattning : The aim was to study the epidemiology of chronic pain (> 3 months duration) and factors associated to pain prevalence, prognosis, health care and medication in a general population. A cross-sectional mailed survey to a random population sample (n = 1806) was followed by a clinical examination and a prospective study of three selected groups. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Antioxidant Capacity in Fruit and Vegetables -Cultivar Variation - Storage Conditions - Human Antioxidant Status

    Författare :Jessica Nilsson; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; human plasma antioxidants; Brassica; strawberry; pea; cultivar; ABTS; FRAP; Total antioxidant capacity; TAC; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The health-promoting effects of fruits and vegetables have been extensively discussed during the past decade since epidemiologic studies have shown relations between increased intake of fruit and vegetables and decreased incidences of several chronic diseases. It has been suggested that antioxidants are a main contributors to the observed effects, for example by acting as scavengers of free radicals. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Measurement and Evaluation of Antioxidant Status and Relation to Oxidative Stress in Humans

    Författare :Cecilia Nälsén; Bengt Vessby; Margareta Öhrvall; Lars Ove Dragsted; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Nutrition; antioxidant; antioxidant status; antioxidant capacity; oxidative stress; lipid peroxidation; F2-isoprostanes; dietary factors; vitamin E; n-3 fatty acids; human; Näringslära;

    Sammanfattning : Numerous diseases are associated with reduced antioxidant defence and oxidative stress. The antioxidant defence includes dietary and endogenous antioxidants and involves complex interactions between them. LÄS MER
