  2. 1. On inflammation and cardiovascular disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

    Author : Solveig Wållberg Jonsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rheumatoid arthritis; mortality; cardiovascular disease; ischemic heart disease; inflammation; lipids; Lp a ; haemostasis; fibrinolysis; atherogenesis; thrombogenesis;

    Abstract : Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have a shorter life span than the general population. An increased death due to cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been reported. RA is characterized by synovitis and joint destruction accompanied by an acute phase reaction and systemic features. READ MORE

  4. 2. On the regulation and effects of chronic inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease

    Author : Olof Grip; Gastroenterologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gastroenterologi; statins; monocytes; eosinophils; dysplasia; thrombosis; ulcerative colitis; Crohn s disease; inflammation; inflammatory bowel disease; Gastro-enterology;

    Abstract : Inflammatory bowel disease is thought to result from the inappropriate and ongoing activation of the mucosal immune system driven by the presence of normal luminal flora. In this process monocytes/macrophages contribute to and maintain chronic inflammation by being both regulatory and effector cells. READ MORE

  5. 3. Studies on effects of antioxidants on arterial thrombosis and endothelial cell injury : With special reference to Tocopherols and ApoA1 Milano

    Author : Dayuan Li; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; tocopherols; apoA1 Milano; platelet aggregation; thrombosis; superoxide dismutase; nitric oxide synthase; endothelial cells; oxidized LDL; transcription factor; apoptosis; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; rättsmedicin; Forensic Medicine;

    Abstract : Coronary arterial endothelial injury and thrombosis are believed to be critical factors in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). Experimental studies have provided evidence for au inverse relation between acute coronary events and antioxidant intake. READ MORE

  6. 4. Fusobacterium necrophorum - from tonsillar carriage to Lemierre’s syndrome

    Author : David Nygren; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Fusobacterium necrophorum is the main causative agent of Lemierre’s syndrome, where the bacteria, following a benign initial oropharyngeal infection, cause septic thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein with subsequent pulmonary embolisation. Despite that data are lacking to suggest so, F. READ MORE

  7. 5. Development of a New Biomechanical ex vivo Perfusion System - Studies on effects of biomechanical and inflammatory stress on hemostatic genes in human vascular endothelium

    Author : Niklas Bergh; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : ex vivo perfusion system; biomechanical; endothelium; shear stress; tensile stress; pulsatile; TNF-α; JNK; hemostatic genes;

    Abstract : The vascular endothelium is a multifunctional interface constantly exposed to biomechanical forces such as shear and tensile stress. Biomechanical stress is involved in the pathophysiological process of the vessel wall and thus affects vascular remodeling, atherosclerosis and thrombogenesis. READ MORE
