  2. 16. Inflammatory reactions in the gingiva and the periimplant mucosa

    Author : Nicola Zitzmann; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The purpose of the present series of investigations was to study the tissue response to plaque formation at teeth and implants as well as local mechanisms involved in the regulation of the inflammatory process. The reaction of the periimplant mucosa (PiM) to long-standing plaque accumulation on implant abutments with different surface roughness was analysed in the dog model (Study I). READ MORE

  4. 17. Ribosomal Proteins in Diamond-Blackfan Anemia : Insights into Failure of Ribosome Function

    Author : Jitendra Badhai; Niklas Dahl; Anthony Wright; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diamond-Blackfan anemia; RPS19; Ribosomal proteins; Haploinsufficiency; cell cycle; Apoptosis; Erythropoiesis; Medical genetics; Medicinsk genetik; Clinical Genetics; klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a severe congenital anemia characterized by a defect in red blood cell production. The disease is associated with growth retardation, malformations, a predisposition for malignant disease and heterozygous mutations in either of the ribosomal protein (RP) genes RPS7, RPS17, RPS19, RPS24, RPL5, RPL11 and RPL35a.

  5. 18. Medication in older hip fracture patients. Falls, fractures, and mortality

    Author : Annika Kragh Ekstam; Geriatrik; []
    Keywords : fall-risk increasing drugs; hip fracture; mortality; older; potentially inappropriate medication; ;

    Abstract : Background and aim: Due to an increasingly ageing population, the number of hip fracture patients, often with multiple chronic diseases and multiple pharmacotherapy, is set to rise. The high risk of adverse outcomes that hip fractures lead to in older individuals is well described, including high first-year mortality. READ MORE

  6. 19. A study of the transition from premalignancy to clinical prostate cancer

    Author : Alexander Valdman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Prostate cancer; immunohistochemistry; prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia; aspiration cytology;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed life-threatening malignancy and the second leading cause of death from cancer in men. However, little is known about molecular mechanisms that underline its initiation and progression. READ MORE

  7. 20. The mucus layer and other barriers to intestinal drug absorption

    Author : Agneta Wikman Larhed; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacy; FARMACI; PHARMACY; FARMACI; galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics;

    Abstract : The extraepithelial mucus layer acts as a barrier to the absorption and diffusion of drugs. Three in vitro models have been used for studies of this and other intestinal barriers to drug transport. A drug absorption model based on monolayers of the mucus-producing human intestinal goblet HT29-H cell line was developed. READ MORE
