  2. 1. Experimental and Clinical Necrotizing Enterocolitis

    Author : Niclas Högberg; Heléne Engstrand Lilja; Agneta Nordenskjöld; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Necrotizing; Enterocolitis; Ischemia; Microdialysis; Intraluminal; I-FABP; Kirurgi; särskilt barnkirurgi; Pediatric Surgery;

    Abstract : Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), a severe inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract with high morbidity and mortality, affects primarily preterm infants. The diagnosis represents a challenging task, and no biomarker has been found to aid early diagnosis with high accuracy. READ MORE

  4. 2. Gastrointestinal Permeability and Motility in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

    Author : Anas Kh. Al-Saffar; Per Hellström; Dominic-Luc Webb; Åsa Keita; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Gastrointestinal motility; intestinal permeability; Mucosal; Ghrelin; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Synchronized motility, permeability and secretory (hormones and enzymes) events are integral to normal physiology. Smooth muscle syncytium operates with enteric nervous system (ENS) and endocrine signalling to accommodate, mix and control passage of ingested materials. READ MORE

    Author : Kimia Maleki; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Throughout the world, orthohantaviruses cause severe, acute infections in humans. Orthohantaviruses, commonly referred to as hantaviruses, are zoonotic viruses with a single stranded RNA genome of negative sense. READ MORE

  6. 4. The gastrointestinal tract in cardiac anaesthesia and intensive care : Clinical and experimental studies

    Author : Jenny Seilitz; Kristofer Nilsson; Kjell Jansson; Birger Axelsson; Måns Edström; Sten Rubertsson; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute Gastrointestinal Injury grade; biomarkers; extracorporeal circulation; splanchnic perfusion; inotropic drugs; vasoactive drugs; lactate; lactate pyruvate ratio;

    Abstract : Gastrointestinal (GI) complications after cardiac surgery have a substantial impact on outcome. The aims were to investigate the frequency of, and methods for detecting, GI dysfunction after cardiac surgery and its relation to outcome, and the impact of vasoactive drugs on the GI tract in experimental cardiogenic shock.

  7. 5. The role of microbial translocation and gut microbiota in HIV-1 infection

    Author : Jan Vesterbacka; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : HIV-1 infection is characterized by persistent systemic inflammation and immune activation, even in patients receiving effective antiretroviral therapy (ART). Translocation of microbial compounds from a leaky gut to systemic circulation, so called microbial translocation (MT), is a major driver of the immune activation. READ MORE
