Profound perturbation of epithelial structure is a characteristic feature of the immunopatholoical response to bacterial antigens considered to be central in the pathogenesis of the destructive lesion of periodontitis.

Abstract:

Introduction Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common and important public health problem, with significant impact on the person’s quality of life and chances of survival. Cardiovascular disease is major cause of morbidity and mortality among people with CKD. Cancer is also a well-recognised complication in people on dialysis and with kidney transplants, but has not been adequately assessed in people with mild to moderately reduced kidney function. It is uncertain whether the basis of such increased risk in the end-stage kidney and transplant populations is solely related to their immunocompr

Background: Chronic disease places a substantial health and economic burden on individuals and health systems globally. Effective chronic disease management relies on patient adherence to proven medications. Medication adherence rates in chronic disease are sub-optimal, yet adherence-enhancing intervention results are underwhelming. Potentially, current strategies are not matching patient adherence preferences, nor addressing heterogeneity in adherence behaviour between social groups. To inform effective intervention design, this thesis aimed to explore adherence preferences for chronic diseas

Abstract:

Cardiovascular disease is common in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) independently predicts cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Pathological changes in the systemic vasculature have been proposed as potential mechanisms linking COPD to cardiovascular disease, and patients with COPD may be at increased risk of acute myocardial infarction during acute exacerbations. Notwithstanding causation, FEV1 may be a useful prognostic marker in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. This thesis examined these three aspects of cardiovascular c

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) common, particularly in the elderly, and is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This is partly explained by joint risk factors such as hypertension and diabetes but novel risk factors such as arterial stiffness, arterial calcification and endothelial dysfunction may play a role. Our aims were 1) to prospectively investigate whether aortic stiffness was linked with rate of decline of renal dysfunction, 2) to investigate the associations of arterial stiffness in patients with moderate renal dysfunction, and 3) to investigate whe

There is a growing literature of clinical studies of bone marrow (BM) cell therapy for liver cirrhosis. At present, the optimum choice of cell type(s) and the mechanism(s) of effect remain undefined. Cells of the monocyte-macrophage lineage have key roles in the development and resolution of liver fibrosis. Therefore, I tested the therapeutic effects of these cells in the context of experimental murine liver fibrosis. The effects of unmanipulated, syngeneic macrophages, their specific BM precursors and unfractionated (whole) BM cells were examined in the iterative carbon tetrachloride model of

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is arguably the most common disease of older cats. A disproportionate number of younger, male cats with CKD was identified among a cohort of cats with CKD and was hypothesised to be due to membranous glomerulopathy or an FIV associated nephropathy. Examination of epidemiologic, histologic, immunohistologic and survival data revealed an association between the presence of CKD and FIV infection among young cats and an adverse effect of FIV infection on survival among cats with CKD, but no specific histological changes were seen among FIV positive cats.

Abstract:

Background Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) can be described as the loss of the kidney function over time. Symptoms usually develop slowly, and it may not appear in early stages. Lab tests can confirm a CKD diagnosis. The approximate number of incidents per year is more than 200,000 cases, and approximately 30 million people are living with CKD today in the United States. This long-standing disease ultimately leads to renal failure at the end. At this present time, there are no known cures for CKD, and the only treatment available is dialysis.

Accurate assessment is the foundation on which effective nursing interventions rest. However, it is not known how accurately nurses identify and prioritize the needs of parents whose children have chronic conditions. When nurses proceed with interventions based on inaccurate assessments, the results can be unsuccessful interventions that neither meet parental needs nor provide optimal health care for this population of children.

In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), exercise training within a pulmonary rehabilitation program leads to improvements in dyspnea, exercise capacity and quality of life measured immediately after the program. These gains diminish within 6-18 months of program completion, in part due to patients' difficulty in sustaining physical activity behaviour. The global objective o

Abstract:

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is insidious and most cases are diagnosed through opportunistic serum creatinine (SCr) testing before symptoms develop. However, efforts to accurately assess prevalence have been hampered by the lack of a universally agreed definition of SCr thresholds for the diagnosis of CKD. At the turn of the millennium, two crucial developments occurred. The first was the description of the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) which closely correlated to cumbersome measured GFR and could be used instead in daily clinical practice.

Abstract:

Colonization of airways by Aspergillus fumigatus hyphae in immunocompetent patients with chronic lung disease leads to progressive decline in pulmonary function. While a minority of these patients develop a severe allergic response to the fungus, the majority of patients show a decline in lung function and airway hyperreactivity despite the absence of elevated IgE levels, eosinophilia or other evidence of hypersensitivity. Treatment of these non-allergic patients with antifungal drugs improves the symptoms, suggesting that pulmonary complications might be directly caused by A. fumigatus. Th

Abstract:

Inflammation is a central component of the immune response. In its acute form it aids the transition from disease to health via the activation of numerous immune cells, enabling them to reach the site of infection/injury and orchestrate themselves to combat pathogens, facilitating resolution and repair to restore the host to health. However, chronic inflammation is deleterious to the host and differs from the “classical” acute inflammatory process in that the inflammation is not necessarily so readily obvious and is not self-limiting; rather, the immune system is in a constant state of low-gra

Skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD is associated with increased morbidity. Novel agents might reverse skeletal muscle dysfunction through different mechanisms since the biopsy picture in COPD patients is heterogenous. Thus there is a need for a biomarker of skeletal muscle dysfunction which could both be measured in blood and obviate the need for a biopsy. Previous work has found that muscle-specific microRNA (miR-1, miR-499, miR-206 and miR-133) are down-regulated in the quadriceps of COPD patients.
