  2. 16. Physiological and clinical aspects of change in microvascular permeability

    Author : Johan Persson; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; dextran; exercise; fluid therapy; gelatin; hydroxyethyl starch; Anaesthesiology; intensivvård; intensive care; Anestesiologi; crystalloids; colloids; Albumin; Capillary filtration coefficient;

    Abstract : Microvascular permeability is important for exchange of fluids and proteins in health and in disease. Permeability increases in critical illness, such as during sepsis/SIRS and after trauma, and may be affected by drugs. Increased permeability causes oedema and hypovolaemia. READ MORE

  4. 17. On Brain Oedema

    Author : Mårten Jungner; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; traumatic brain injury; brain oedema; fluid therapy; blood-brain barrier;

    Abstract : Traumatic brain injury and bacterial meningitis may at a glance appear as two different disease entities. The host reaction, however, to both trauma and infection involves a strong inflammatory response, with the classical symptomology of rubor, tumor, calor, dolor et functio laesa. READ MORE

  5. 18. HIV-1 infection of the central nervous system. Markers of pathogenesis and antiretroviral treatment effects

    Author : Sahra Abdulle; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HIV-1; cerebrospinal fluid; antiretroviral therapy; neopterin; beta2-microglobulin; CSF HIV-1 RNA; blood-brain barrier; IgG index; HIV-related neurological diseases; AIDS Dementia Complex; neurofilament protein; HIV-1 genetic subtypes;

    Abstract : Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) invades the central nervous system (CNS) early in the course of infection and either directly or through opportunistic infections causes a spectrum of neurological complications. The most severe manifestation of HIV-1 CNS infection is AIDS Dementia Complex (ADC), which occurs in approximately 20% of untreated patients with AIDS. READ MORE

  6. 19. On HIV-1 infection in the central nervous system

    Author : Åsa Mellgren; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HIV-1; antiretroviral therapy; cerebrospinal fluid; neurofilament protein; AIDS dementia complex; neuropsychological test;

    Abstract : HIV-1 (hereafter referred to as HIV) is a neurotropic virus that invades the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS is then susceptible to an acute infection and later to CNS opportunistic diseases and AIDS dementia complex (ADC). HIV does not infect the neurons, and neuropathogenesis is largely mediated by the immune system. READ MORE

  7. 20. Alphaherpesvirus infections of the central nervous system – Biomarkers, diagnostics and antiviral therapy

    Author : Johan Lindström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; herpesviruses; central nervous system; facial paralysis; cerebrospinal fluid; biomarkers; acyclovir; neurotoxicity; syndromic testing;

    Abstract : Abstract Herpesviruses predate the evolution of humans and are globally ubiquitous. Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2), and varicella-zoster virus (VZV) establish latency in neuronal tissue and may cause infections in the central nervous system (CNS).
