  1. 21. Allergic inflammation in children with pet allergy and asthma : mechanisms, markers and clinical consequences

    Författare :Karin Lönnkvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Asthma; animal dander allergy; children; eosinophils; ECP; EPO; EPX EDN; ENO; bronchial hyperresponsiveness; sputum; nasal lavage; budesonide; withdrawal.;

    Sammanfattning : Immunological background: Allergic inflammation is a multiple-step process with many actors, where eosinophils and the release of their granula proteins play an important role. The recruitment of eosinophils is a crucial event in the inflammatory process. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Contribution of the sensory nervous system : an experimental study in the rat

    Författare :Olle Löfgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :edema; hindpaw withdrawal latency HWL ; inflammation; microcirculation; scalding; sensory nervous system; sensory neuropeptide antagonists; sensory neuropeptides; thermal injury;

    Sammanfattning : The pathophysiological background to burn induced inflammatory reactions is poorly understood and present therapy options are limited. A model of thermal injury was developed to enable investigations of the acute inflammatory reactions in the periphery as well as of the transmission of nociception at the spinal cord level. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Aspects on menstrual physiology, pathology and medical treatment of menorrhagia

    Författare :Måns Edlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Menstruation; endometrium; coiled arteries; endothelin; vasoconstriction; progesterone withdrawal; menorrhagia; bleeding disorder; von Willebrand Disease; fibrinolysis; tranexamic acid; desmopressin; platelet dysfunction; thrombin.;

    Sammanfattning : Menstruation is the monthly process by which the endometrium in fertile women is discarded if no pregnancy occurs. The physiology and pathology of menstruation has been extensively studied; still several steps are not fully understood. Menorrhagia, heavy regular menstrual bleeding, is a gynaecological symptom of disease. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Contributions of calcitonin gene-related peptide in ischemia, inflammation and nociception

    Författare :Gunilla Brodda Jansen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :5-hydroxytryptamine; acupuncture; blood flow; calcitonin gene-related pep- tide; edema formation; histamine; inflammation; ischemia; mast cells; neuropeptides; neutrophils; nociception; sensory stimulation; substance P; surgical flaps; withdrawal res;

    Sammanfattning : The sensory neuropeptide Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a very potent vasodilator with a wide distribution in peripheral sensory nerves, often co-stored with substance P. In the present study, the effects of CGRP in different models of ischemia, inflammation and nociception were examined. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Architectures of the Unbuilt Environment

    Författare :Helen Runting; Hélène Frichot; Douglas Spencer; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; The Unbuilt Environment; Withdrawal Symptoms; Pastel Cells; Container Technologies; Instant Archives; A Facilitative Environment; The Fog; The Promise of a Lack; The State of Things; The Liquid Seam; In Aggregate; Ghosts in Shells; Images of Desire.; Architecture; Arkitektur;

    Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis offers a critical theorization of architecture’s shifting orientations towards the lives that it inevitably shapes and molds. The fourteen essays that comprise this thesis address a range of seemingly superficial transformations in architecture’s disciplinary landscape, which occur in Sweden in the second decade of the twenty-first century.
