Systemisk skleros, SSc, är en ovanlig reumatologisk sjukdom där immunologisk aktivering leder till kärlskada och fibros i hud och inre organ. Hälften av patienterna avlider av komplikationer från hjärta eller lungor, ofta fibros i lungor eller pulmonell arteriell hypertension (PAH). Projekten rör kartläggning av tidiga mekanismer kring patogenes och biomarkörer för tidig diagnos och monitorering aSystemic sclerosis, SSc, is a rare rheumatologic disease where immun activation leads to vascular damage and fibrosis in skin and internal organs. Half of the population will die from complications from heart or lungs, mostly lung fibrosis or pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Our projects aim at early pathogenic mechanisms and biomarkers for early diagnosis and to monitor the disease and the

Sepsis (när en infektion blir livshotande) är en bortglömd folksjukdom som drabbar lika många som cancer och har högre dödlighet än hjärtinfarkt och är mycket dyrt. Sepsis är ett komplext syndrom och borde precis som cancer inte klassas som en sjukdom utan många olika beroende på vilken bakterie som orsakar infektionen, vilket organ infektionen först drabbar och kanske viktigast av allt i vilket iSepsis (when an infection becomes life threatening) is a neglected public health problem affecting as many as cancer, with a higher mortality rate than myocardial infarction and is very expensive. Sepsis is a complex syndrome, akin cancer and should not be classified as a single disease, rather many different depending on 1. the bacteria causing the infection, 2. Organ focus of the infection, and

The Swedish Stroke Register (Riksstroke) was founded in 1994. Riksstroke includes registration of acute stroke, with a follow up after 3 months and 1 year. The Stroke policy and quality register research group has several ongoing projects based on data from Riksstroke, and in many studies also using data record linkage to other national registers and data bases.

BACKGROUND: Treatment for breast cancer poses major challenges and leads to a variety of side-effects and problems that affect life for a long time. Experiences and symptoms vary, and research indicates a lack of structures for ensuring individualized rehabilitation. This qualitative focus group study aims to explore the experience of women with BC after participating in a complex randomized contr

Cerebral pares (CP) är en diagnos som beskriver en heterogen grupp av individer som alla har någon grad av motorisk funktionsnedsättning. Utöver motorik är andra funktioner ofta också påverkade och komorbiditet (t.ex. epilepsi) samt s.k. ”secondary conditions” (t.ex. smärta) är vanliga. Personer med ryggmärgsbråck (MMC) har också motoriska problem, ofta tillsammans med problem relaterade till neurCerebral palsy (CP) is a medical diagnosis that describes a heterogeneous group of individuals who all have some degree of motor impairment. In addition to motor skills, other functions are often also affected and comorbidity (e.g., epilepsy) and secondary conditions (e.g., pain) are common. Individuals with spina bifida— and often more specifically myelomeningocele (MMC) — also have motor problem

PURPOSE: Perceived Threat of the Risk of Graft Rejection (PTRGR) is prominent in organ transplant recipients' lives. When asked about what they fear most, the commonest response is graft rejection. A reasonable assumption is that this perceived threat is also relevant for heart recipients and involves various psychological reactions, such as efforts to cope with the perceived threat. There are no

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. As a PhD student he made a significant discovery when he identified ghrelin cells in the pancreatic islands. Four hormone-producing cells were already known to exist in the islands, including the insulin cell. The ghrelin cell became the fifth such cell. “In the scientific world, the discovery of a new type of cell in
