  2. 16. Early parathyroidectomy in mild primary hyperparathyroidism: Effects on heart and bones

    Author : Erik Almqvist; Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; parathyroidectomy; hyperparathyroidism; bone metabolism; testosterone; myocardial hypertrophy; cardiac function; echocardiography; radionuclide angiography; natriuretic peptide; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatologi; ortopedi; traumatology; Kirurgi;

    Abstract : There is an ongoing controversy regarding how to take care of patients with mild primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Some recommend surgical treatment at diagnosis, others just follow-up as long as there is no evidence of disease progression. READ MORE

  4. 17. Methodological aspects on microdialysis sampling and measurements

    Author : Pernilla Abrahamsson; Ola Winsö; Michael Haney; Anna-Maja Åberg; Urban Ungerstedt; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microdialysis; liver ischemia; heart ischemia; epicardium; liver parenchyma; CMA 600; metabolism; Anaesthetics and intensive care; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; anestesiologi; Anaesthesiology;

    Abstract : Background:     The microdialysis (MD) technique is widely spread and used both experi­mentally and in clinical practice. The MD technique allows continuous collection of small molecules such as glucose, lactate, pyruvate and glycerol. Samples are often analysed using the CMA 600 analyser, an enzymatic and colorimetric analyser. READ MORE

  6. 19. Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion and cardioprotection. A study with microdialysis in a porcine model

    Author : Carsten Metzsch; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; heart preservation; metoprolol; levosimendan; beta-blockers; pharmacological preconditioning; myocardial ischemia; cardioprotection; glycerol; microdialysis; cold cardioplegic storage;

    Abstract : The studies in this thesis are based on questions raised in the clinical setting. Perioperative myocardial ischemia occurs more often than recognized. This may lead to myocardial infarction, increased morbidity, mortality, and health care costs. READ MORE

  7. 20. Homocysteine and its determinants in relation to cardiovascular risk factors and myocardial infarction

    Author : Elisabet Söderström; Johan Hultdin; Torbjörn K. Nilsson; Anders Larsson; Umeå universitet; []

    Abstract : Background: Globally, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke, are the leading cause of illness and death and constitute a significant part of the disease burden in Sweden and Western Europe. Age, hypertension, smoking, obesity, dyslipoproteinemia, diabetes, and impaired renal function are considered established risk factors for CVD. READ MORE
