1. 31. Epidermal Reactions to Injury with Implications for Innate Immunity

   Författare :Markus Roupé; Infektionsmedicin; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Innate immunity; epidermis; Wound healing; interleukin-8; Antimicrobial peptides;

   Sammanfattning : Abstract The epidermis is one of our primary interfaces towards the external milieu. Following injury, the physical barrier function of the skin is destroyed and the epidermis is left vulnerable to microbial invasion. LÄS MER

3. 32. The Diabetic Foot. Costs, health economic aspects, prevention and quality of life

   Författare :Gunnel Ragnarson Tennvall; Socialepidemiologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Social medicine; wound healing; treatment outcome; risk factors; prevention and control; amputation; cost and cost analysis; Socialmedicin; samhällsmedicin;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aims were to investigate the economic consequences of foot complications in diabetic patients, to measure the influence of diabetic foot complications on health-related quality of life (HRQL), and to analyse the cost-effectiveness of interventions to prevent foot ulcers and lower extremity amputations (LEA). The economic consequences of foot ulcers and LEA are large both in a short and a longer perspective. LÄS MER

4. 33. Stimulation of tendon repair by platelet concentrate, CDMP-2 and mechanical loading in animal models

   Författare :Olena Virchenko; Per Aspenberg; Jon Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Achilles tendon; injuries; physiology; Blood platelets; tendon injuries; physiopathology; therapy; wound healing; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

   Sammanfattning : Growth factor delivery may be useful to accelerate the rate of tendon healing. We studied Platelet Concentrate, which in effect can be regarded as a cocktail of growth factors relevant for tendon healing. LÄS MER

5. 34. Exploring immune cell functions and ways to make use of them

   Författare :Evelina Vågesjö; Mia Phillipson; Michael Hickey; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :leukocytes; neutrophils; macrophages; regulatory T cells; chemokines; VEGF-A; hypoxia; ischemia; muscle; Islets of Langerhans; diabetes; transplantation; wound healing;

   Sammanfattning : In addition to host defense, alternative functions of immune cells are emerging. Immune cells are crucial during healing of injured tissue, in formation of new blood vessels, angiogenesis, and also in maintaining the balance in inflammation having immune regulating functions.

7. 35. Bioactive nanocellulose materials for the treatment of chronic wounds

   Författare :Anna Blasi Romero; Natalia Ferraz; Daniel Aili; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cellulose nanofibrils; covalent immobilization; wound healing; antioxidant properties; antibacterial properties; anti-inflammatory properties; stimuli responsive hydrogels; reactive oxygen species; host defense peptides; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot nanoteknologi och funktionella material; Engineering Science with specialization in Nanotechnology and Functional Materials;

   Sammanfattning : Chronic wounds represent a burden for the healthcare system and significantly affect the quality of life of the patients. There is currently a lack of efficient treatments but new, improved therapeutic approaches are under development. LÄS MER
