  3. 3. Lung mechanics in the aging lung and in acute lung injury. Studies based on sinusoidal flow modulation

    Author : Ulrika Bitzén; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diagnostics; Diagnostik; acute lung injury; lung mechanics; acute respiratory distress syndrome; intensivvård; Anestesiologi; intensive care; Anaesthesiology; Andningsorganen; Respiratory system; Fysiologi; Physiology; flow regulation; method; lung resistance; compliance; aging;

    Abstract : Knowledge about lung mechanics is of interest in intensive care to adjust mechanical ventilation and in the lung laboratory for diagnostics and evaluation of patients with various kinds of respiratory diseases. In mechanical ventilation a single inspiratory elastic pressure-volume (Pel/V) curve is difficult to interpret due to continuing re-expansion of collapsed lung units over a large pressure interval.

  4. 4. Quantitative assessment of myocardial infarction: On the relationship between anatomy and electrophysiology using MRI and ECG

    Author : Henrik Engblom; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Fysiologi; Physiology; medicinsk instrumentering; tomografi; radiologi; Klinisk fysiologi; magnetic resonance imaging; tomography; medical instrumentation; Clinical physics; radiology; electrocardiography; myocardial infarction; ischemic heart disease; Cardiovascular system; Diagnostics; Diagnostik; Kardiovaskulära systemet;

    Abstract : Both presence and extent of myocardial infarction are important prognostic factors for mortality and quality of life in patients with ischemic heart disease. Thus, it is of great clinical importance to be able to diagnose and characterize myocardial infarction. READ MORE

  5. 5. Novel methods for improving rapid paper-based protein assays with gold nanoparticle detection

    Author : Lara Lama; Helene Andersson Svahn; Jesper Gantelius; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gold nanoparticles; ultrasound energy; signal enhancement; diagnostics; microarrays; paper-based assays; COMSOL Multiphysics simulations; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : This thesis describes methods for improving sensitivity in rapid singleplex and multiplex microarray assays. The assays utilize the optical characteristics of colloidal gold nanoparticles for the colorimetric detection of proteins.Multiplexed detection in sandwich immunoassays is limited by cross-reactivity between different detection antibodies.
