  2. 1. Preconditioning for block matrices with square blocks

    Author : Ivo Dravins; Maya Neytcheva; Svetozar Margenov; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; preconditioning; block preconditioning; PDE-constrained optimization; Implicit Runge-Kutta methods; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : Linear systems of equations appear in one way or another in almost every scientific and engineering problem. They are so ubiquitous that, in addition to solving linear problems, also non-linear problems are typically reduced to a sequence of linear ones. READ MORE

  4. 2. On surgical techniques to reduce morbidity after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The significance of harvesting technique, preconditioning, graft choice and the course of bone mineral in the calcaneus

    Author : Lars Ejerhed; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction; patellar tendon autograft; semitendinosus tendon autograft; preconditioning; bone mineral areal mass;

    Abstract : The aim of the study was to reduce undesired postoperative effects, such as anterior knee pain, loss of sensitivity in the knee region and problems with knee-walking after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructive surgery. Furthermore, prospectively to evaluate the bone mineral in the calcanei before and after ACL reconstruction. READ MORE

  5. 3. Ischemic Tolerance and Cell Signaling in the Rat Brain

    Author : Mehrdad Shamloo; Lund Wallenberg Neurocentrum; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; preconditioning; cell death; tyrosine phosphorylation; tolerance; ERK; Calpain; CaMKII; PKC; protection; Brain; ischemia; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi;

    Abstract : A brief period of sublethal ischemia in the brain induces resistance to a subsequent, otherwise lethal ischemic insult. This phenomenon is known as ischemic tolerance or preconditioning. A model of ischemic preconditioning in the rat brain using the two-vessel occlusion model of global cerebral ischemia was established. READ MORE

  6. 4. DNA repair and the p53 pathway in ischemic and traumatic brain injury

    Author : Gregor Tomasevic; Neurokirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neuronal death; DNA repair; knock-out mice; XPA; p53; mRNA; hippocampus; preconditioning; hypothermia; trauma; Brain; ischemia; neurobehavior; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi;

    Abstract : Ischemic and traumatic brain damage are major causes of disability and death. While much effort has been spent to develop pharmacological treatments for these conditions, no neuroprotective drugs are in clinical use. READ MORE

  7. 5. Inflammation and ischemia in the developing brain - modifying effects of hyperoxia and adrenoceptor activation

    Author : Tina Markus; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adrenergic; preconditioning; excitotoxicity; tissue culture; hyperoxia; resuscitation; asphyxia; sensitization; TNF-alpha; inflammatory mediators; hippocampus; neonate;

    Abstract : Inflammation and ischemia are common causes of perinatal brain damage. Ventilation with pure oxygen has previously been the prime choice during resuscitation following fetal asphyxia. READ MORE
