  2. 1. Open abdomen therapy with vacuum-assisted wound closure and mesh-mediated fascial traction

    Author : Thordur Bjarnason; Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Open abdomen; laparostomy; VAWC; NPWT; TNP; VAWCM; classification;

    Abstract : Introduction: Several life-threatening intra-abdominal conditions may be treated with open abdomen (OA) therapy. Potential complications to OA treatment include damage to the exposed bowel resulting in enteric fistulas, and inability to close the abdomen afterwards resulting in large ventral hernias. READ MORE

    Abstract : Neuroblastoma is a malignant solid tumor of childhood with a poor prognosis. The growth of solid tumors has been shown to be dependent on new blood vessel formation, i.e. angiogenesis. READ MORE

  6. 4. Myocardial Topical Negative Pressure

    Author : Sandra Lindstedt Ingemansson; Thoraxkirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; coronary blood flow; microvascular blood flow; topical negative pressure TNP ;

    Abstract : The aim of this research was to find out if it is possible to increase myocardial microvasular blood flow by applying a topical negative pressure source directly onto the myocardium. Topical negative pressure is a relatively new wound healing technique. READ MORE

  7. 5. Angiogenesis in obesity and cancer

    Author : Ebba Bråkenhielm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Adiponectin; endothelial cells; Leptin; Resveratrol; TNP-470;

    Abstract : Angiogenesis is the process of blood vessel growth from pre-existing vasculatures. In the adult, it is involved in certain physiological processes, such as in organ and tissue regeneration, wound healing, and in female reproductive cycles. READ MORE
