  1. 1. Water physiology in burn victims

    Author : Joachim Zdolsek; Tøstolv Lund; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Total body water; Extracellular fluid; Burn; Bioelectrical impedance; Oedema; Extracellular matrix; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Patients who sustain a burn injury of more than 20 - 30 % TBSA will, if untreated, develop burn shock within a couple of hours. Flcid is lost fi·om the vascular compartment due to suction from the interstitium of the wound and due to a generalised increase in vascular permeability. READ MORE

  2. 2. Multi-frequency SFDI : depth-resolved scattering models of wound healing

    Author : Luigi Belcastro; Rolf Saager; Hanna Jonasson; Lise Lyngsnes Randeberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SFDI; Light scattering; Wound healing;

    Abstract : With optical techniques, we refer to a group of methods that use of light to perform measurements on matter. Spatial frequency domain imaging (SFDI) is an optical technique that operates in the spatial frequency domain. READ MORE

  3. 3. A path along deep learning for medical image analysis : With focus on burn wounds and brain tumors

    Author : Marco Domenico Cirillo; Anders Eklund; Veronika Cheplygina; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Deep learning; Medical image analysis; Burn wounds; Brain tumors; Image classification; Image segmentation; Image augmentation; CNNs; GANs;

    Abstract : The number of medical images that clinicians need to review on a daily basis has increased dramatically during the last decades. Since the number of clinicians has not increased as much, it is necessary to develop tools which can help doctors to work more efficiently. READ MORE

  4. 4. Corneal cellular proliferation and wound healing

    Author : Lisha Gan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : cornea; cell proliferation; wound healing; stem-cells; leukocytes; PCNA; hyaluronan; alkali injury; photorefractive keratectomy;

    Abstract : Background: Cellular proliferation plays an important role in both physiological and pathological processes. Epithelial hyperplasia in the epithelium, excessive scar formation in retrocorneal membrane formation and neovascularization are examples of excessive proliferation of cornea cells. Lack of proliferative ability causes corneal degeneration. READ MORE

  5. 5. Plasminogen in periodontitis and wound repair

    Author : Rima Sulniute; Tor Ny; Daniel A Lawrence; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The plasminogen activator (PA) system plays a critical role in many physiological and pathological processes, such as fibrinolysis, extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation, wound healing, inflammation, and cancer. The key component of the PA system is plasmin, a broad-spectrum serine protease that is derived from its inactive form, plasminogen. READ MORE
