1. Release and Clearance Mechanisms of Cardiac Troponin
Abstract : Myocardial infarction (MI) is often suspected when a patient presents with chest pain. MI is defined as cardiac necrosis due to ischemia, most often mediated through impaired coronary perfusion. Cardiac necrosis results in the release of myoglobin, creatine kinase and cardiac troponin (cTn) to the circulation. READ MORE

2. Artificial neural networks for assessment of patients with suspected acutemyocardial infarction
Abstract : An early diagnosis within the first hours after onset of symptoms is essential for the optimal treatment of patients admitted with chest pain of suspected cardiac origin. In the majority of patients, the 12-lead ECG is nondiagnostic on admission. READ MORE

3. Cardiac Troponins in Patients with Suspected or Confirmed Acute Coronary Syndrome : New Applications for Biomarkers in Coronary Artery Disease
Abstract : The cardiac troponins are the biochemical markers of choice for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and risk prediction in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). In this thesis, the role of early serial cardiac troponin I (cTnI) testing was assessed in fairly unselected patient populations admitted because of chest pain and participating in the FAST II-study (n=197) and the FASTER I-study (n=380).

4. Ventricular fibrillation and defibrillation in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators
Abstract : Since the introduction of the implantable cardioverter defibrillator for humans with malignant ventricular arrhythmias in 1980, over 50, 000 patients world wide have received this device. The implantation procedure is simple and resembles the implantation of an ordinary pacemaker. READ MORE

5. Trombolys och biokemiska markörer : i den prehospitala fasen av akuta koronara syndrom
Abstract : Efficacy of thrombolytic therapy among patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is time dependent. The earlier treatment can be started the more powerful are the effects on reducing infarct size, preservation of ventricular function and reducing long and short-term mortality. READ MORE
