  1. 21. Mucositis Prevention for Patients Receiving High Dose Chemotherapy and Stem Cell Transplantation : Preventive Strategies - There is Always More to do

    Author : Anncarin Svanberg; Gunnar Birgegård; Kerstin Öhrn; Sharon Elad; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; oral mucositis; stem cell transplantion; oral cryotherapy; cooling; cytokine IL-6;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to investigate oral cryotherapy (OC) as prophy-laxis against oral mucositis (OM) in patients given high-dose chemotherapy for stem cell transplantation (SCT). A new mouth rinse device was tested for possible additive effect to OC.For study I-III, 78 patients were randomised to OC or standard oral care (SOC). READ MORE

  2. 22. Regional oxygenation in cardiac surgery. Influence of temperature, pump flow and insulin

    Author : Lena Lindholm; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiopulmonary bypass; cardiac surgery; regional oxygenation; venous oxygenation; splanchnic oxygenation; insulin; vasodilation; temperature; pump flow;

    Abstract : Surgical trauma triggers neural, endocrine and inflammatory reactions with subsequent alterations in systemic and regional blood flow, blood pressure and metabolism. These changes are detectable after all major surgical procedures but are often more pronounced after cardiac surgery, probably because of blood exposure to artificial surfaces of the heart lung machine, temperature modulation (e.

    Abstract : Today, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are ubiquitous in mobile phones, laptops, and other portable devices. Additionally, LIBs are becoming more and more popular for powering hybrid and electric vehicles. READ MORE

  4. 24. Urban Climate and Air Pollution in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso

    Author : Jenny Lindén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sub-Saharan Africa; Sahel; semi arid; nocturnal cooling; urban vegetation; evening evaporative cooling; cooling rate; atmospheric stability; thermal wind; carbon monoxide; particulate matter; road dust; exposure differences;

    Abstract : ABSTRACT Africa has recently been singled out by UN Habitat as the fastest urbanizing continent in the world. The most extreme case was found in the Sahelian city of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, where the population is expected to almost double over the next ten years. READ MORE

  5. 25. Low Temperature Waste Heat Recovery in Internal Combustion Engines

    Author : Vikram Singh; Förbränningsmotorer; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Low Temperature Waste Heat Recovery; Rankine cycle; Coolant Temperature; Working Fluids;

    Abstract : Over the past few decades, the automotive industry has increasingly looked towards increasing the efficiency of the internal combustion engine to meet more stringent emission norms and as a measure to meet demands for improved air quality in cities. One method to improve the internal combustion engine efficiency is to recover some of the energy lost to the coolant and the exhaust using a secondary thermodynamic cycle such as an Organic Rankine Cycle.
