2. 1. Signs of inflammation in different types of heart valve disease : The VOCIN study

   Author : Lars Wallby; Lena Jonasson; Mats Broqvist; Mårten Rosenqvist; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Heart valve dysfunction; heart valve disease; VOCIN study group; aortic valves; Gross valvular pathology; Cariology; Cariologi;

   Abstract : Heart valve dysfunction is a relatively common condition in the population, whereas significant heart valve disease is more unusual. The cause of different types of heart valve disease depends on which valve is concerned. Rheumatic heart valve disease, has for a long time been considered to constitute a post-inflammatory condition. READ MORE

4. 2. Hydronic Heating Systems The Effect of Design on System Sensitivity

   Author : Anders Trüschel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shunt group; controllability; district heating; room temperature; air heater; heating coil; thermal power output; deviations; water return temperature; valve group; hydronic heating; radiator system; P-band;

   Abstract : This thesis starts from the recognition that a hydronic heating system can be optimised, but can never be totally perfect. Sooner or later, in practice, deviations - caused by one or more components having slightly different characteristics or settings than they are assumed or supposed to have - arise. READ MORE

5. 3. Outcome and risk factors after aortic valve interventions

   Author : Per Kvidal; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; aortic valve replacement; mechanical valve prosthesis; relative survival; morbidity; recurrent events; balloon aortic valvuloplasty; long-term follow-up; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; kardiologi; Cardiology;

   Abstract : In the present study the long-term survival and morbidity and the associated risk factors after aortic valve replacement (AVR) and after aortic balloon valvuloplasty were evaluated. In a cohort of 2,359 consecutive patients undergoing primary aortic valve replacement, the early mortality was 5.6%. READ MORE

6. 4. Aortic valve surgery: Clinical studies after autograft, homograft and prosthetic valve replacement

   Author : Obaid Aljassim; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aortic valve surgery; Ross operation; Homograft; Doppler-Catheter gradients;

   Abstract : Aortic Valve Surgery Clinical studies after autograft, homograft and prosthetic valve replacement Obaid Aljassim, MD Department of Cardiovascular Surgery and Anaesthesia, Sahlgrenska University Hospital and University of Gothenburg Introduction and Aims: Aortic valve disease in symptomatic adult patients often requires surgery. Several alternatives are available: repair, mechanical and biological prostheses, homograft and the Ross procedure. READ MORE

7. 5. Clinical evaluation of an adjustable cerebrospinal fluid shunt valve

   Author : Göran Zemack; Neurokirurgi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi; Surgery; Cost analysis; Codman Hakim programmable valve; Pressure adjustable shunt valve; Cerebrospinal fluid shunt; Idiopathic intracranial hypertension; Hydrocephalus; Arachnoid cyst;

   Abstract : Introduction: Shunting systems are implanted for draining cerebrospinal fluid to treat hydrocephalus, intracranial cysts, and idiopathic intracranial hypertension. Most shunt systems include a valve which regulates drainage. A differential pressure valve opens when intracranial pressure exceeds the valve’s opening pressure. READ MORE
