  1. 1. Acetylcholine in Spinal Pain Modulation : An in vivo Study in the Rat

    Author : Klas Abelson; Urban Höglund; Ernst Brodin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Laboratory animals; Pain; Nociception; Antinociception; Acetylcholine; Muscarinic; Nicotinic; Spinal cord; Microdialysis; Försöksdjursvetenskap; Laboratory animal science; Försöksdjursvetenskap;

    Abstract : The spinal cord is an important component in the processing and modulation of painful stimuli. Nerve signals from the periphery are relayed and further conducted to the brain (nociception) in the spinal cord, and the most essential modulation of painful information (antinociception) occurs here.

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; biomaterials; coagulation; complement; heparin; leukocytes; platelets; PVC; titanium; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; Clinical Immunology; klinisk immunologi;

    Abstract : This thesis describes a new in vitro slide chamber model that makes it possible to conduct studies of molecular and cellular interactions between whole blood and biomaterials. The model proved to be a suitable tool for detection of cell and platelet binding to a biomaterial surface. READ MORE

  3. 3. Hemostasis and microvascular function in type 1 diabetes : effects of treatment with statin and aspirin

    Author : Sara Tehrani; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Patients with type 1 diabetes often develop microvascular complications and are at increased risk of premature cardiovascular disease.

  4. 4. The role of FPR2/ALX in the vascular wall

    Author : Marcelo Petri; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; Sweden Stockholm Karolinska Institutet Dept. of Medicine; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases caused by atherosclerosis are a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Inflammation has been described as a key component in the development of atherosclerosis. Lipoxin A4 (LXA4) is a lipid mediator derived from arachidonic acid, which has anti-inflammatory and pro-resolution properties mediated through the FPR2/ALX receptor. READ MORE

  5. 5. Platelet Inhibition and Bleeding in Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

    Author : Ulrica Alström; Elisabeth Ståhle; Ulf Schött; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bleeding; cardiac surgery; platelet inhibition; re-exploration; cost analysis; Anaesthetics and intensive care; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; Thoraxkirurgi; Thorax Surgery; Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care; Anestesiologi och intensivvård;

    Abstract : A substantial number of patients undergoing cardiac surgery are on dual anti-platelet treatment with clopidogrel and aspirin. A disadvantage with this treatment is increased risk of bleeding. Bleeding is a complication of major concern associated with adverse outcome for the patient and increased hospital resource utilization. READ MORE
