Journal ArticleDOI
CSF-biomarkers in Olympic boxing: diagnosis and effects of repetitive head trauma.
Sanna Neselius,Sanna Neselius,Helena Brisby,Helena Brisby,Annette Theodorsson,Kaj Blennow,Kaj Blennow,Henrik Zetterberg,Henrik Zetterberg,Jan Marcusson +9 more
TL;DR: Increased CSF levels of T-tau, NFL, GFAP, and S-100B in >80% of the boxers demonstrate that both the acute and the cumulative effect of head trauma in Olympic boxing may induce CSF biomarker changes that suggest minor central nervous injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transplantation of human mesenchymal stems cells into intervertebral discs in a xenogeneic porcine model.
Helena Barreto Henriksson,Teresia Svanvik,Marianne Jonsson,Margret Hagman,Michael Horn,Anders Lindahl,Helena Brisby +6 more
TL;DR: Xenotransplantation seems to be valuable in evaluating the possibility for human cell therapy treatment for intervertebral discs, as in autologous animal models the combination with a three-dimensional-hydrogel carrier seems to facilitate differentiation and survival of MSCs in the disc.
Journal ArticleDOI
Which specific modes of exercise training are most effective for treating low back pain? Network meta-analysis
Patrick J. Owen,Clint T. Miller,Niamh L Mundell,Simone J.J.M. Verswijveren,Scott D Tagliaferri,Helena Brisby,Steven J. Bowe,Daniel L. Belavy +7 more
TL;DR: There is low quality evidence that Pilates, stabilisation/motor control, resistance training and aerobic exercise training are the most effective treatments for adults with NSCLBP, but exercise training may also be more effective than therapist hands-on treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of cell proliferation zones, progenitor cells and a potential stem cell niche in the intervertebral disc region: a study in four species.
Helena Barreto Henriksson,Maria Thornemo,Camilla Karlsson,Olle Hägg,Katarina Junevik,Anders Lindahl,Helena Brisby +6 more
TL;DR: The IVD is a tissue with ongoing slow cell proliferation both in the AF and the nucleus pulposus and the stem cell niche pattern detected in AFo and P can be suggested to play a role for IVD morphology and function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proinflammatory cytokines in cerebrospinal fluid and serum in patients with disc herniation and sciatica.
TL;DR: The observation of increased concentrations of IL-8 in CSF in patients with a short duration of symptoms supports the concept of the initial involvement of inflammatory mechanisms after a disc herniation.
