  4. 17. Blood Vessels, Biomarkers, and Broken Barriers: lnvestigations of the Brain Vasculature in Models of Neonatal Brain lnjuries

    Author : E. Axel Andersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neonatal brain injury; hypoxia ischemia; germinal matrix haemorrhage; blood brain barrier; tight‐junctions; blood vessels;

    Abstract : Brain injury during the perinatal period can lead to lifelong impairment in cognitive and motor function, or an early death. Term neonatal encephalopathy and preterm germinal matrix haemorrhage are two conditions that can irreversibly injure the brain, but clinical tools for diagnosing and treating these pathologies are lacking.

  6. 19. Transcriptional dysregulation in L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia

    Author : Malin Andersson; Neurobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Clinical genetics; neurofysiologi; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; CREB; jun; fos; immediate early genes; prodynorphin; striatal plasticity; Parkinson s disease; dyskinesia; Klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : This study explores the role of transcriptional regulation important in the development of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease. In patients with Parkinson’s disease, dyskinesia is one of the most difficult complications of the DA-replacement therapy by L-DOPA. READ MORE

  7. 20. Natural course and long-term prognosis in idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus - the effect of delayed surgery and clinical factors on outcome and survival

    Author : Kerstin Andrén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Normal pressure hydrocephalus; Natural history; Gait disorders; Cognitive disorders; Prognosis;

    Abstract : Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus, iNPH, causes gait and balance difficulties, urinary incontinence and cognitive decline in mainly older persons and is treatable by insertion of a cerebrospinal fluid diverting shunt. The effects of postponing treatment in these patients have have been largely unknown and the benefits of treatment in the long-term, mortality and causes of death have not been reported in any large cohort of patients.
