  2. 6. Clinical and experimental studies in corticosteroid contact allergy

    Author : Marléne Isaksson; Yrkes- och miljödermatologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; venereologi; Dermatologi; venereology; Dermatology; inhalation; ROAT; mixes; hydrocortisone-17-butyrate; Corticosteroids; budesonide; tixocortol pivalate; dose-response relationship; clinical relevance; stability; allergic contact dermatitis;

    Abstract : Corticosteroids are anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative substances that also can induce sensitization, mainly through skin contact. In a sensitized individual, it can be hard to disclose the contact allergy at patch testing because the anti-inflammatory effect may mask the allergic contact reaction. READ MORE

  4. 7. Contact Allergy to Epoxy Resins of the Bisphenol F-type

    Author : Ann Pontén; Yrkes- och miljödermatologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; thin-layer chromatography; occupational dermatitis; isomers; bisphenol F; bisphenol A; DGEBF; DGEBA; epoxy resin of the bisphenol F-type; Epoxy resin; contact allergy; Dermatology; venereology; Dermatologi; venereologi; Occupational health; industrial medicine; Yrkesmedicin; arbetsmiljömedicin;

    Abstract : Epoxy resins based on bisphenol A are well-known contact allergens and often cause occupational contact allergy. The most important allergen is the monomer diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA). READ MORE

  5. 8. ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITIES OF HISTIDINE-RICH GLYCOPROTEIN AND CATIONIC PEPTIDES

    Author : Victoria Rydengård; Lund Dermatologi och venereologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dermatologi; venereologi; venereology; Dermatology; histidine-rich glycoprotein; heparin-binding; zinc; low pH; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Medicin människa och djur ; innate immunity; antimicrobial;

    Abstract : In an environment full of potential pathogens it is of importance for organisms to mount a fast and effective defence. Antimicrobial peptides are ancient and integral effector molecules of the innate immune system. They are found in all kinds of species from bacteria to plants and animals, indicating their importance during evolution. READ MORE

  6. 9. Characterisation and treatment of patients with port wine stains with special reference to the emotional impact

    Author : Agneta Troilius; Dermatologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; capillary malformation; PWS; pulsed dye laser; laser doppler imager; ultrasound; psychosocial impact; depth; reflectance spectrophotometry; Dermatologi; venereologi; venereology; Dermatology;

    Abstract : This thesis covers 12 years of experience in treating patients with congenital capillary malformations, so called port wine stains (PWS). The wide variation in treatment response to laser therapy has developed a profound need for the development of objective devises to measure treatment outcome, so that the maximum effectiveness of therapy can be achieved without unnecessary treatments.

  7. 10. Contact allergens in p-tert-butylphenol-formaldehyde resin

    Author : Erik Zimerson; Yrkes- och miljödermatologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dermatology; main allergens; structure-activity relationships; identification of contact allergens; guinea pig maximization test; p-tert-butylphenol-formaldehyde resin; patch testing; venereology; Dermatologi; venereologi;

    Abstract : p-tert-Butylphenol-formaldehyde resin (PTBP-F-R) is used as a binder in many adhesive formulations and it consists of a complex mixture of substances, most of which are unknown. The resin has been reported to cause allergic contact dermatitis since the 1950s. READ MORE
