  2. 1. Base-catalyzed depolymerization of kraft lignin for valuable chemical production

    Author : Kena Li; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kraft lignin; Depolymerization; CFR; Membrane filtration; Guaiacol; Vanillin; bioconversion;

    Abstract : Lignin is one of the three predominant biopolymers that make up plants together with cellulose and hemicellulose, and it is the only plant component that is based on aromatic units. The industrial kraft pulping process generates large amounts of lignin, which is currently used to generate heat for the process. READ MORE

  4. 2. Prognostic impact of coronary microvascular funtion in patients with ischemic heart disease

    Author : Inger Haraldsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; coronary microvascular function; coronary flow reserve; coronary artery disease; acute coronary syndromes; thrombus aspiration; pretreatment; SCAAR; SWEDHEART;

    Abstract : Background: Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death globally. Despite recent advances in interventional and medical therapies, survivors of myocardial infarction are at high risk of recurrent cardiovascular events. READ MORE

  5. 3. Doppler evaluation of coronary blood flow and coronary flow reserve - Clinical and experimental studies

    Author : Gylfi Oskarsson; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pediatrics; Pediatri; Cardiovascular system; Kardiovaskulära systemet; fetal asphyxia; transposition of the great arteries; dilated cardiomyopathy; aortic stenosis; child; neonate; adenosine; coronary flow reserve; Doppler; coronary flow;

    Abstract : Heart diseases in children cause different combinations of myocardial hypertrophy, increased intra-ventricular pressures, volume overload and decreased oxygen saturation. This may affect basal coronary flow and the ability of the heart to maximally increase coronary flow. READ MORE

  6. 4. Renal denervation in patients with resistant hypertension

    Author : Sebastian Völz; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Blood pressure; hypertension; Doppler echocardiography; sympathetic nervous system pathophysiology; sympathectomy; autonomic denervation;

    Abstract : BACKGROUND Catheter-based renal denervation (RDN) is a potential modality in the treatment of patients with resistant hypertension (RH). The biological effects of RDN are not fully comprehended and studies examining its impact on blood pressure (BP) and other cardiovascular surrogate markers have generated conflicting results.

  7. 5. Invasive Pneumococcal Infections

    Author : Erik Backhaus; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Streptococcus pneumoniae; epidemiology; risk factors; pneumonia; meningitis; serotype; clonal complex;

    Abstract : Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of disease, ranging from uncomplicated respiratory infections to severe invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD), including bacteraemic pneumonia, septicaemia with unknown focus and meningitis. Case fatality rate (CFR) remains high and antibiotic resistance is increasing globally. S. READ MORE
