Abstract:

Acute pancreatitis is an important disease in companion animal medicine, and diagnostic methodology available to veterinary practitioners is often limited. Evidence based principles for the management of this common disease are also lacking. This thesis explores the current diagnostics of canine pancreatitis and management of this condition, reviewing the literature across both the veterinary and human medical fields. Assessment of the specificity of canine pancreatic-specific lipase (cPL) was made in a post-mortem study and calculated to be 82-92%, with a correlating sensitivity of 45-55%

Abstract:

Celiac disease (CD) is the most common inflammatory disease of the intestine. It is a chronic systemic autoimmune disorder affecting the small bowel of genetic susceptible individuals. CD is triggered by the ingestion of gluten, a storage protein present in wheat, barley and rye. CD frequency in the general population of Europe and United States is approximately 1% whereas in Finland and Sweden it reaches peaks of respectively 2% to 3%. In Italy, the estimated prevalence is 0.7%, however the number of patients currently undiagnosed seems to be largely superior to known cases. The only effect

Abstract:

The aim of the present thesis was to evaluate sonographic methods for investigation of the chronic painful Achilles tendon. In a prospective study on patients with chronic painful mid-portion Achilles tendinosis, grey-scale ultrasound (US) showed a decreased tendon thickness and a “normalized” structure in the majority of patients successfully treated with eccentric calf-muscle training. By combining US with colour Doppler examination (CDV), a neovascularisation was shown in the region with structural tendon changes in all painful tendons, but not in any of the pain-free normal tendons.

Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) refers to the testing of embryos produced through in vitro fertilization (IVF) in order to identify those unaffected by a specific genetic disorder or chromosomal abnormality. In this study, different methodologies were examined and developed for performance of PGD. Investigation of various whole genome amplification (WGA) methods identified multiple displacement amplification as a reliable method for genotyping single cells. Furthermore, this technology was shown to be compatible with subsequent analysis using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) microa

We confirmed that classical manifestations of hyperthyroidism are significantly less prevalent in older patients and established that newly diagnosed thyroid dysfunction is rare in hospitalised subje

Background: Today corneal crosslinking with ultraviolet-A photoactivation of riboflavin is an established method to halt the progression of keratoconus. In some cases, when the refractive errors are large and the visual acuity is low, conventional corneal crosslinking may not be sufficient. In these cases it would be desirable with a treatment that both halts the progression and also reduces the refractive errors and improves the quality of vision.

Mental disorders, such as Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and 22q11 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) are both related to a dopaminergic system dysfunction. Several studies have shown that dopamine (DA) not only mediates interactions into the nervous system, but can also contribute to the modulation of immunity via receptors expressed in the immune cells (Nagakome et al., 2011; Nakano et al., 2011). Autoimmunity in the central nervous system has been suggested to play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of neurodevelopmental disorders (ND) (Schwartz. 2013), but how an immune system a

Abstract:

An early diagnosis of melanoma is essential to reduce mortality of patients. The diagnosis is also fundamental to predict the outcome of patients and to select the most adapted treatment. Current diagnostic assessments are obtained after visual inspection of the histological section of the primary tumor. The pathologist has first to determine the malignant nature of the lesion and then to assess the potential of the lesion to form metastases. Depending on several characteristics of the primary tumor (mainly tumor thickness, ulceration and mitotic rate), the sentinel node is surgically removed

Cancer survivors typically adapt well to life following remission; however, some patients still experience lingering negative moods that may develop into depression. There are multiple factors that can contribute to depressive symptoms from somatic symptoms, to emotion and social concerns. When analyzing these contributing factors, an underlying theory of a connection between the symptoms of depression and inflammation was revealed. Although this was not shown to be a causal association, it set forward some theories on the pathogenesis of depression in cancer survivors who may have persistent

Abstract:

During the early life of Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI), it took the (bio)scientific community a while to realize the great potential of the technique over a wide range of analytical problems, from the discovery or identification of (mostly) organic (macro)molecules through to structure analysis and function. Since then, the practical use of MALDI-MS has grown almost exponentially and it is today an indispensable laboratory tool, particularly in the life sciences. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) is a “soft” ionization technique, which allows for

Abstract:

Introduction: Au Nigeria, la couverture de la détection et du traitement de la tuberculose pharmaco-résistante (TPR) est toujours faible malgré la mise en place de services gratuits depuis 2011. Le pays se classe au sixième rang mondial avec une proportion de cas de patients résistants aux médicaments de 4,3% et de 15% dans les cas d’une réinitialisation au traitement. Le pays a aussi un fardeau élevé pour la tuberculose, la TPR, et le VIH, avec une prévalence de 219 et 11 pour 100 000 habitants pour la tuberculose et la TPR et de 1,28 pour 1 000 habitants pour le VIH.

Abstract:

Subject of the thesis was focused on the utilization of EEG biofeedback for children with an Attention deficit disorder. The objective was to draw attention to one of the possible therapy methods for Attention deficit disorder and describe the EEG biofeedback in relation with it. The theoretical part addresses the attention disorders, their diagnostics, methods of treatment and the EEG biofeedback. The practical part describes use of the EEG biofeedback in work with children with the Attention deficit disorder through a qualitative research by means of in-depth semi-structured interviews. The

Abstract:

Overview: Major Depression in mid to later life can seriously impact on many domains of functioning in a diversity of ways. The trajectory of major depression in mid to later life can lead to varying degrees of social isolation, physical immobilities and cognitive impairment in later life. Furthermore, social isolation can be a serious and debilitating factor which increases dependency and unhappiness in older people, thereby substantially contributing to increasing economic and health burdens as the large cohort of Baby Boomers now approach old age. Aim: To test the efficacy of a choir therap

Abstract:

Introdução: A cárie dentária é uma doença infeciosa prevalente em todo o mundo que deriva da colonização da superfície do esmalte por microorganismos que produzem ácidos, levando à perda mineral. A sua manifestação clínica está na dependência da interação de diferentes fatores etiológicos. Embora seja um assunto que faz parte da rotina clínica do médico dentista, conhecer as evidências científicas atuais, assim como a melhor forma de realizar o diagnóstico e o tratamento é crucial para o profissional, que se preocupa não somente em práticas clínicas intervencionistas como na promoção da
