2. 1. MRI assessment of haemophilic arthropathy

   Author : Björn Lundin; Lund Diagnostisk radiologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering; medical instrumentation; tomography; radiology; Clinical physics; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Arthropathy; Factor VIII; Factor IX; MRI; Haemophilia; Klinisk fysiologi;

   Abstract : Haemophilia is a recessive genetic bleeding disorder in which coagulation time is prolonged due to the absence or malfunction of either of the serum proteins Factor VIII or IX. Joint destruction following repeated haemarthroses is the main cause of morbidity in haemophiliacs, and such arthropathy can be prevented or postponed by implementing prophylactic therapy with factor concentrate at an early age.

4. 2. Haemophilia B - Diagnostic Insights, Genetic Aspects and Clinical Outcomes

   Author : Kristina Kihlberg; Institutionen för translationell medicin; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Coagulation factor IX; Haemophilia B; Haemophilia A; F9 variant; Assay discrepancy; Chromogenic assay; One-stage assay; Bleeding disorders; Quality of life; Immune tolerance induction; Non-neutralising antibodies; Inhibitors; Treatment Adherence; Arthropathy;

   Abstract : Haemophilia B (HB) is a rare inherited bleeding disorder caused by the deficiency of coagulation factor IX (FIX). The major clinical issues are bleedings, often targeting the joints, and the development of neutralising antibodies, i.e. inhibitors, to the FIX replacement therapy. READ MORE

5. 3. Arthroscopic Bankart reconstruction using different absorbable tacks. The clinical results, radiographic findings and effect on calcaneal bone mineral

   Author : Anna Elmlund; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; shoulder dislocation; arthroscopic; dislocation arthropathy; BMA;

   Abstract : ABSTRACT The aim of the thesis was to explore the clinical and radiographic results after post- traumatic anterior shoulder instability treated with arthroscopic Bankart surgery using absorbable tacks with different compositions. Further aims were to explore possible effects on bone mineral in the heel bone and health-related quality of life after a shoulder-stabilising surgical procedure. READ MORE

6. 4. Mortality and co-morbidity among patients with hemochromatosis and their first-degree relatives

   Author : Maria Elmberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []

   Abstract : Genetic hemochromatosis (GH) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a C282Y mutation in the HFEgene, and is characterized by excess iron accumulation in multiple organs. Classical manifestations of GH include liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, diabetes mellitus, cardiomyopathy, and arthritis. READ MORE
