    Författare :Yedizza Rautavaara; [2022]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Inherited retinal diseases are considered as a leading cause of vision loss in a young population. Neither a permanent cure nor long-term treatment has yet been discovered. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Hunden som modell för ärftlig retinopati hos människa

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Susanna Berger; [2017]
    Nyckelord :retinopati; Retinitis pigmentosa; Leber congenital amaurosis; hund; modelldjur; genterapi;

    Sammanfattning : This literature review aims to evaluate the dog as a model organism for research concerning retinopathy, as well as gene therapy as a potential treatment. At least 256 genes and 300 mutations associated with hereditary retinopathy in humans have been identified. In canines, 28 such genes have been identified. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Differences of progressive retinal atrophy in dogs

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Lisen Ekroth; [2013]
    Nyckelord :Atrophy; Retina; Dog; PRA;

    Sammanfattning : A group of diseases that affect the dog’s sight is progressive retinal atrophy (PRA) a disease that means that the photoreceptors in the retina of the eye either not develop normally or undergo degeneration and thereby causes vision loss and blindness. The disease affects many different breeds and is inherited. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Challenges of Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) Patients in Iran and Sweden (A Comparative Study)

    Magister-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för socialt arbete

    Författare :Yasaman Simarasl; [2012-11-22]
    Nyckelord :Retinitis Pigmentosa; Challenges; Stigmatization; Social Support; Community; Coping;

    Sammanfattning : This research is based on a comparative qualitative study to raise the challenges of Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) patients regarding the three levels of their life as well as the relationship of these levels through living with RP, in two different contexts of Sweden and Iran, in order to contribute in improvement of RP patients’ life conditions and reducing their difficulties. Fifteen semi-structured interviews were conducted to RP patients from Iran and Sweden. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Stamcellsterapi : En teknik som räddar synen?!

    Kandidat-uppsats, Institutionen för naturvetenskap, NV

    Författare :Joanna Falinska-Krol; [2010]
    Nyckelord :stamcellstransplantation; degeneration i näthinnan; synproteser;

    Sammanfattning : Introduktion: Synen är det viktigaste mediet genom vilket människan uppfattar omgivningen. Degenerativa processer som försämrar synen kan förbindas till ärftligt betingade eller degenerativa processer och mutationsfaktorer eller multifaktoriella degenerativa näthinnesjukdomar: retinitis pigmentosa, glaukom och åldersrelaterad makula degeneration.
