  1. 1. Peritoneal fibrinolysis during pneumoperitoneum and laparoscopic surgery

    Author : Maria Bergström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Laparoscopy; Fibrinolysis; Peritoneum; Mesothelial cells; Carbon Dioxide; Helium;

    Abstract : BACKGROUND Laparoscopic surgery is believed to induce less postoperative adhesion formation compared with open procedures, but information regarding biological impact of a laparoscopic approach is limited. MATERIAL & METHODS Peritoneal response to laparoscopic surgery was assessed in human peritoneal tissue in two clinical trials (paper I & V). READ MORE

  2. 2. Food intake, fibrinolysis and risk factors for cardiovascular disease : studies with special focus on plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1)

    Author : Birgitta Sundell-Rånby; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Body build; diet; fiber; fibrinolysis; glucose; insulin; lipids; obesity; plasminogen activator inhibitor;

    Abstract : Elevated plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) activity levels, hyperlipemia, hypertension, impaired glucose tolerance and obesity, in particular central obesity, are all related to increased risk for the development of cardiovascular disease.Some risk factors are known to be and shown to be influenced by dietary habits.

  3. 3. Blood Pressure Elevation - Impact on Cardiovascular Structure and Endogenous Fibrinolysis

    Author : Wilhelm Ridderstråle; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : hypertension; left ventricular hypertrophy; intima-media thickness; fibrinolysis; endothelium; tissue plasminogen activator; antihypertensive agents; mechanical stress; plasminogen activator inhibitor-1;

    Abstract : Blood pressure elevation is a major risk factor for cardiovascular events and the risk increases in a dose-dependant manner. It is of importance to identify subjects prone to develop hypertension and adverse cardiovascular remodeling in order to start treatment timely. READ MORE

  4. 4. Vascular mechanisms in dementia with special reference to folate and fibrinolysis

    Author : Nils-Olof Hagnelius; Torbjörn K. Nilsson; Teodoro Bottiglieri; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; dementia; Alzheimer’s disease; vascular dementia; folate; homocysteine; vitamin B12; CSF Serum folate ratio; fibrinolysis; tPA; PAI-1; Geriatrics and medical gerontology; Geriatrik och medicinsk gerontologi; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Geriatrik; Geriatrics; Medicin; Medicine;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to study the biomarker homocysteine and other novel potential vascular risk factors for dementia. In an out-patient based study of a cohort of 926 consecutive subjects referred to our Memory Unit during 1996―2000, serum-folate was lower and total plasma homocysteine (tHcy) and serum methyl malonate were higher in subjects being prescribed with B12.

  5. 5. Ultrasound-enhanced Fibrinolysis Pro-fibrinolytic and Non-beneficial Effects Of Ultrasound Exposure

    Author : Bjarne Madsen-Härdig; Kardiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kardiovaskulära systemet; Thrombolysis; Cardiovascular system; Fibrinolysis; Ultrasound;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to further clarify the pro-fibrinolytic effects, and to explore the possible non-beneficial effects in ischemic organs, during exposure to pulsed ultrasound. This was accomplished by studies of the effects of different intensities of pulsed ultrasound exposure on the fibrinolytic properties of streptokinase and reteplase. READ MORE
