2. 1. Insights into the effect of myocardial revascularisation on electrical and mechanical cardiac function

   Author : Ihab Ramzy Guirguis; Michael Y Henein; Stellan Mörner; Reidar Winter; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; myocardial infarction; natriuretic peptides; echocardiography; ventricular function; atrial function; surgical revascularisation; speckle tracking echocardiography; Cardiology; kardiologi;

   Abstract : Background: Acute coronary syndrome is known for its effect on cardiac function and can lead to impaired segmental and even global myocardial function. Evidence exists that myocardial revascularisation whether pharmacological, interventional or surgical results in improvement of systolic and diastolic left ventricular (LV) function, particularly that of the long axis which represents the sub-endocardial function, known as the most sensitive layer to ischaemia.

4. 2. Studies on myocardial regeneration

   Author : Olaf Ingmar Bergmann; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Heart disease is one of the leading causes of adult and child morbidity and mortality. The underlying pathology leads typically to a loss of functional cardiomyocytes that causes heart failure. READ MORE

5. 3. Clinical and Epidemiological Studies on Giant Cell Arteritis

   Author : Pavlos Stamatis; Reumatologi och molekylär skelettbiologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Epidemiology; Vasculitis; Risk Factor; Outcomes; Giant cell arteritis; Infection; cancer registries; Malignancies; Myocardial infarction; Incidence; Prevalence; Seasonal variability;

   Abstract : Objectives: The aim of the research summarized in this thesis was to present a comprehensive view of the epidemiology of biopsy-confirmed GCA, investigate infection as a possible risk factor of GCA, and to assess the association of GCA with cancer and myocardial infarction.Methods: To establish incidence and prevalence, patients diagnosed with biopsy-confirmed GCA in Skåne, Sweden 1997–2019 were identified through the database of the pathology department of Region Skåne which serves the entire region.

6. 4. Echocardiography in myocardial infarction : aspects on diastolic function and evaluation by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging

   Author : Martin G Sundqvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Background: Echocardiography is routinely used to evaluate patients with known or suspected myocardial infarction (MI). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) provides the ability to quantify myocardial infarction size (IS), and to establish an underlying diagnosis in MI cases with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA).

7. 5. Mind & Well-being : The relationships between personality and health related pathology

   Author : Markus J. T. de Ruijter; Helgi B. Schiöth; Gull Rukh; Hui Xin Wang; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; personality; epidemiology; cardiovascular disease; well-being; job satisfaction; autism spectrum disorder; animal models;

   Abstract : The study of the associations between personality, lifestyle and health related pathology has revealed important associations. These include associations with physical health such as the onset of cardiovascular disease, but also with mental and emotional health such as depression or life satisfaction. READ MORE
