  1. 1. Integrated biomechanical, electronic and topographic characterization of titanium dental implants

    Author : Johanna Löberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Surface roughness parameters; 3D-SEM; AFM; Interfacial shear strength; Impedance spectroscopy; Cyclic voltammetry; SBF; MG-63; TiO2-nanoparticles;

    Abstract : Titanium dental implants are medical devices used to restore the function entailed with the loss of one or several teeth. To obtain successful function over long periods, the dental implants must be sufficiently anchored in the bone to withstand the forces induced by for example chewing. READ MORE

  2. 2. Studies on skin blood flow and evaporative water loss : a bioengineering approach

    Author : Lena Nilsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Skin blood flow (SBF), temperature, evaporative water loss (EWL) and skin conductance (SC) measured during stimulus-response experiments reveal valuable information regarding the skin's regulatory capacity. SBF and EWL play powerful roles in keeping the human body within an adequate temperature range. READ MORE

  3. 3. Splanchnic circulation in cardiac surgery

    Author : Michael Gårdebäck; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : cardiopulmonary bypass dopamine dopexamine echocardiography ethanol; heart surgery indocyanine green intramucosal pHi splanchnic circulationMichael Gårdebäck; 1996;

    Abstract : The studies addressed different techniques of monitoring hepatic and splanchnic blood flow (SBF) during open heart surgery. Calculations of gastric mucosal pH (pHi) using tonometry was performed in 72 patients, and the effect of dopaminergic stimulation on pH1 was studied in 33 patients. READ MORE

  4. 4. Rapid microbiological diagnosis of infections in sterile body fluids including blood

    Author : Osman Altun; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Infections of normally sterile body fluids (SBF) including blood, cerebrospinal-, pleural-, peritoneal-, pericardial and synovial fluid are critical and require early diagnosis and rapid initiation of appropriate antimicrobial therapy. With the advanced and invasive care of modern medicine, infections of SBF are increasing worldwide. READ MORE

  5. 5. Nutrition in Elderly Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery

    Author : Doris Rapp-Kesek; Torbjörn Karlsson; Folke Hammarqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Anaesthesiology and intensive care; elderly; nutrition; CABG; cardiac surgery; outcome; insulin resistance; enteral nutrition; splanchnic blood flow; BMI; albumin; 3-methylhistidine; alfa-1-antitrypsin; Anestesiologi och intensivvård;

    Abstract : Many elderly undergo cardiac surgery. The prevalence of malnutrition in elderly is high and increases with comorbidity. This thesis aims to clarify some aspects on performing surgery in elderly concerning nutritional status, nutritional treatment and age-related physiology. READ MORE
