2. 1. Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Inferior Vena Cava (REBOVC) : Experimental and clinical studies

   Author : Maria B. Wikström; Kristofer F. Nilsson; Tal M. Hörer; Pirkka Vikatmaa; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Retrohepatic inferior vena cava; trauma; injury; hemorrhagic shock; endovascular; REBOVC;

   Abstract : Juxtahepatic venous injuries often cause life-threatening hemorrhagic shock, the mortality is high and new management methods are needed. The aims were to explore endovascular methods for retrohepatic vascu-lar isolation, their effects on survival, hemodynamics, metabolism, end-organ damage and bleeding, and if ultrasound and anatomical land-marks could be used to guide placement of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the inferior vena cava (REBOVC).

4. 2. The inflammatory response to arterial injury

   Author : Paul Dimayuga; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiovascular system; neointima; arterial injury; inflammation; Kardiovaskulära systemet;

   Abstract : Atherosclerosis as a disease is postulated to stem from a response to injury of the arterial wall by various stimuli. The inflammatory response is proposed to mediate intimal formation after injury. One pathway of cellular response to injury is through transcription factor NF-kB. READ MORE

5. 3. Injury-induced activation of vascular smooth muscle cells. Role of specific gene expression and intracellular signalling pathways

   Author : Cecilia Lövdahl; Reumatologi och molekylär skelettbiologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; metalloproteinase; extracellular matrix; ERK1 2 signalling; migration; proliferation; injury; vessel wall; smooth muscle cell; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Medicin människa och djur ;

   Abstract : Migration and proliferation of smooth muscle cells (SMC) are important events in the development of atherosclerosis and restenosis following angioplastic surgery. It is important to gain further knowledge about the mechanisms regulating SMC form and function in order to understand the underlying disease process. READ MORE

6. 4. Inhibition of smooth muscle cell proliferation after balloon injury

   Author : Bojan Cercek; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Smooth muscle cell proliferation is an important part of the arterial response to injury Insulin like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is involved in regulation of cell proliferation and hypopituitarism is associated with decreased vessel wall response to injury. We investigated the role of vascular IGF-I in vessel wall response to injury. READ MORE

7. 5. Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta : Physiology and clinical aspects of an emerging technique

   Author : Mitra Sadeghi; Tal M. Hörer; Kristofer F. Nilsson; Per Skoog; Kjell Jansson; Kevin Mani; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; REBOA; trauma; hemorrhage; partial REBOA; Ischemia reperfusion injury; blood pressure titration; endtidal cabondioxide; traumatic inflammatory response;

   Abstract : Traumatic hemorrhagic shock is a major cause of death worldwide. Patients enter the fatal triad of hypothermia, acidosis and coagulopathy and die quickly due to cardiovascular collapse. Ideally, procedures should be performed at the injury scene to prevent this fatal event. READ MORE
