2. 1. Endothelial function during ischemia-reperfusion and effects of inhalation of nitric oxide

   Author : Lars Lindberg; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chemiluminescence; capnography; monitoring; inhalation; mechanical ventilation; pulmonary hypertension; nitric oxide; EDRF; endothelium-derived relaxation factor; endothelium; organ preservation; Lung; lung transplantation; electrochemical fuel cell; Anaesthesiology; intensive care; Anestesiologi; intensivvård;

   Abstract : The vascular endothelium is an important regulatory organ in circulatory physiology and plays a central role in the response to acute inflammation and ischemia/reperfusion. Activation and dysfunction of the pulmonary vascular endothelium are closely related to clinical findings of pulmonary dysfunction. READ MORE

4. 2. Nitric oxide in experimental sepsis

   Author : Peter Dahm; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intensive care; Nitric oxide; Sepsis; NO inhalation; Endotoxin; Acute lung injury; ARDS; Nitric oxide synthase; L-NMMA; L-NAME; Anestesiologi; Anaesthesiology; Pigs; intensivvård;

   Abstract : Nitric oxide (NO) is important in the control of blood pressure and organ perfusion. In septic shock, NO produced by inducible NO-synthase (NOS) has been claimed to mediate pathological vasodilation and cell injury, while NO produced by constitutive NOS may be protective in counteracting hypoperfusion and organ injury.

5. 3. From Air to Aria. Relevance of Respiratory Behaviour to Voice Function in Classical Western Vocal Art

   Author : Monica Thomasson; KTH; []
   Keywords : Abdominal wall; breathing; consistency; inhalation; lung volume; respiratory behaviour; phonation; rib cage; singers; singing; subglottal pressure; tracheal pull; vertical laryngeal position; voice source.;

   Abstract : While previous studies of opera singers’respiratorybehaviour have focused on kinematic or dynamic aspects mainly,this thesis attempts to adopt a broader perspective. Not onlylung volumes, rib cage and abdominal wall kinematics areconsidered, but also the effects of lung volumes and respiratorybehaviour on phonation characteristics. READ MORE

6. 4. Acupuncture in Obstetrics and Anaesthesia

   Author : Nina Kvorning; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anestesiologi; intensivvård; auditory evoked potentials; intensive care; Anaesthesiology; sevoflurane; surgery; minimal alveolar concentration; inhalation; electric stimulation; obstetrics; delivery; childbirth; tender points; maternaty care; anesthesia; analgesia; labor; pregnancy; acupuncture; pain;

   Abstract : The aims of the present thesis (I-V) were to evaluate the analgesic and adverse effects of manual acupuncture for low-back and pelvic pain during pregnancy (I) and for labour pain (II-III), and also to study the effects of low-frequency electro acupuncture (EA) on clinical physiological responses to skin incision in anaesthetized patients (IV-V). Acupuncture in obstetric patients (I-III) Manual acupuncture in obstetric patients was found to relieve pain in one prospective randomised (I) and two retrospective (II-III) studies. READ MORE

7. 5. Clinical and experimental studies in corticosteroid contact allergy

   Author : Marléne Isaksson; Yrkes- och miljödermatologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; venereologi; Dermatologi; venereology; Dermatology; inhalation; ROAT; mixes; hydrocortisone-17-butyrate; Corticosteroids; budesonide; tixocortol pivalate; dose-response relationship; clinical relevance; stability; allergic contact dermatitis;

   Abstract : Corticosteroids are anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative substances that also can induce sensitization, mainly through skin contact. In a sensitized individual, it can be hard to disclose the contact allergy at patch testing because the anti-inflammatory effect may mask the allergic contact reaction. READ MORE
