2. 6. Factors influencing outcome in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - Effects of pharmacotherapy, pacing and surgical myectomy

   Author : Davood Javidgonbadi; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy; myectomy; pacing; beta-blocker; survival; sex; re-intervention rate;

   Abstract : Background: Most studies on risk factors for disease-related mortality in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) have emanated from specialized tertiary centres which are subject to possible referral bias. About one quarter of HCM-patients have outflow obstruction in the left ventricle, hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). READ MORE

4. 7. Hemodynamic aspects of biventricular pacing in heart failure

   Author : Marcus Ståhlberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Heart failure; biventricular pacing; hemodynamic monitoring; heart rate; cardiac output;

   Abstract : Background and aims: Biventricular pacing or cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established treatment option for selected heart failure (HF) patients. We aimed at evaluating acute and longer-term hemodynamic effects of different pacemaker programmings in CRT patients. READ MORE

5. 8. On the Design of Energy Efficient Aero Engines: Some Recent Innovations

   Author : Rickard Avellan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; turbofan; aero engine; inter-turbine reheat; emissions; variable cycle; energy efficiency; propeller; NOx; MDO;

   Abstract : In the light of the energy crisis of the 1970s, the old aerospace paradigm of flying higher and faster shifted towards the development of more energy efficient air transport solutions. Today, the aeronautical research and development community is more prone to search for innovative solutions, in particular since the improvement rate of change is decelerating somewhat in terms of energy efficiency, which still is far from any physical limits of aero engine and aircraft design.

6. 9. Cancer of the Colon and Rectum : Population Based Survival Analysis and Study on Adverse Effects of Radiation Therapy for Rectal Cancer

   Author : Helgi Birgisson; Lars Påhlman; Bengt Glimelius; Ulf Gunnarsson; Ragnar Hultborn; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Surgery; cancer; colon; rectal; colorectal; survival; radiation therapy; second cancer; adverse effects; Kirurgi;

   Abstract : The Swedish Cancer Register was used to determine the relative survival rate in colon and rectal cancer and to estimate the occurrence of second cancers related to radiation therapy for rectal cancer. The Swedish Hospital Discharge Register and hospital records were used to estimate the rate of late adverse effects due to radiation therapy for rectal cancer. READ MORE

7. 10. Labour Market Effects of Working Time Reductions and Demographic Changes

   Author : Oskar Nordström Skans; Magnus Wikström; Uppsala universitet; []

   Abstract : Essay I studies the impact on actual hours worked of a 5 % working time reduction for one class of shift workers in Sweden using individual level panel data from firms’ payroll records during the sec-ond quarter each year. The main result is that actual hours only decreased by approximately 35 % of the reduction in standard hours. READ MORE
