  2. 1. Effects of Mobile Phone Radiation upon the Mammalian Brain

    Author : Henrietta Nittby; Sektion IV; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mobile phone; electromagnetic radiation; Blood-brain barrier; brain; rat;

    Abstract : oday about half of the world's population owns the microwave producing mobile phones. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects the mammalian brain from potentially harmful substances circulating in the blood. READ MORE

  4. 2. Monitoring of extracellular substances after spontaneous and experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage

    Author : Magnus Runnerstam; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Subarachnoid hemorrhage; Microdialysis; Amino acids; GFAP; Iron; Apoptosis;

    Abstract : Even though survival is considerably enhanced after surgical treatment of an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), there is a critical period, which keeps the patient in intensive care for days or even weeks. Complications, such as vasospasm, ischemia and brain edema ultimately lead to further brain damage. READ MORE

  5. 3. Behavior and cytogenesis following irradiation or isoflurane exposure to the developing brain

    Author : Niklas Karlsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radiotherapy; isoflurane; anesthesia; hippocampus; neurogenesis; memory; learning; intellicage; dentate gyrus; trace fear conditioning; open field; object recognition;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the effects of an anesthetic agent, isoflurane, on the young brain and resulting behavioral effects were investigated. Anesthesia is commonly used in young children during surgery or other procedures associated with pain or discomfort. READ MORE

  6. 4. Automatic generation of patient specific models for hip surgery simulation

    Author : Johanna Pettersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Simulation of surgical procedures in computer based simulator systems is a relatively new area of interest in the field of medical technology. Many different systems are under development, but it is still far until this technique becomes routine in a clinical environment. READ MORE

  7. 5. Human neural stem cell transplantation in experimental brain trauma

    Author : André Wennersten; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of death and disability in young adults in the industrialized world. Human neural stem/progenitor cells (hNSCs) can be expanded in culture and have the ability to differentiate into the major cell types of the adult brain. READ MORE
