21. Ropivacaine and cellular functions : towards an understanding of efficacy in ulcerative colitis
Abstract : Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory condition affecting the mucosa of the colon and the disease is characterised by periods of active colonic inflammation, intermitted by periods of remission. Local anaesthetics have been shown to exhibit a wide array of anti inflammatory effects in addition to the reversible block of nerve impulse propagation, and some or maybe all of these may explain the reported beneficial effects of local anaesthetics in ulcerative colitis patients.

22. Bilateral neurogenic mechanisms following acute unilateral inflammation
Abstract : The contribution of neurogenic mechanisms to inflammation has been extensively studied during the last decade, but provides no clear understanding of the bilateral changes commonly seen following unilateral stimulation. This work demonstrates that bilateral neurogenic mechanisms are a part of general host defence reactions following acute unilateral challenge, for the first time revealing that local anaesthetics applied contralaterally, might be used for therapeutic purposes in relieving pain and inflammation.

25. Application of new technology : MEPS and LC-MS/MS for determination of therapeutic drugs
Abstract : Bioanalysis most often requires an extraction procedure to isolate the target compounds from a complex matrix. The aim of this work was to evaluate microextraction in packed syringe (MEPS) performance as a sample preparation technique by developing new analytical methods for different categories of compounds utilizing MEPS in combination with LC-MS/MS.
