  1. 1. Helicobacter pylori infection and associated stomach pathology in the adult general population

    Author : Tom Storskrubb; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The discovery of H. pylori infection has had a tremendous impact on the understanding and treatment of upper gastrointestinal diseases. It causes gastritis, sometimes developing to atrophy and intestinal metaplasia (IM), both considered as premalignant conditions and it is an important risk factor for peptic ulcer and non-cardia gastric cancer.

    Abstract : Muscle diseases, also called myopathies, are usually defined as diseases where the pathology is confined to the muscle itself. This excludes diseases caused by structural abnormalities in the peripheral nerve, from the anterior horn cell to the neuromuscular junction. READ MORE

  3. 3. Development of specific monoclonal antibodies against different forms of alpha-synuclein as diagnostic tools for synucleinopathies

    Author : Nishant Narayanan Vaikath; Neural plasticitet och reparation; []

    Abstract : Synucleinopathies, including Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies(DLB) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), are a group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the abnormal accumulation of insoluble alpha-synuclein (α-syn) aggregates in the brain. The detection of α syn pathology has relied vastly on the use of several antibodies, which were mostly generated against different forms of α-syn. READ MORE

  4. 4. Chronic exertional compartment syndrome of the lower leg : a novel diagnosis in diabetes mellitus: a clinical and morphological study of diabetic and non-diabetic patients

    Abstract : Chronic exertional compartment syndrome (CECS) of the lower leg, defined as a condition with exercise-induced pain due to increased intramuscular pressure (IMP), has previously mainly been described in running athletes, and etiologic factors are poorly described. CECS has not been reported to occur together with other diseases and information about consequences on muscles morphology after treatment with fasciotomy is largely unknown. READ MORE
