  2. 11. Cardiopulmonary involvement in Puumala hantavirus infection

    Author : Johan Rasmuson; Clas Ahlm; Anders Blomberg; Jamshid Pourazar; Gregory J. Mertz; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome; hantavirus; echocardiography; respiratory function tests; computed tomography; bronchoalveolar lavage; biopsy; cytotoxic T cells; disease severity; Infectious Diseases; infektionssjukdomar;

    Abstract : Puumala hantavirus (PUUV) causes hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome in Europe. After inhalation of virus shed by bank voles, the virus systemically targets the vascular endothelium leading to vascular dysfunction and leakage. READ MORE

  4. 12. Antibacterial Effect and Inflammatory Response in Relation to Antibiotic Treatment of Sepsis

    Author : Paul Skorup; Jan Sjölin; Miklós Lipcsey; Kristoffer Strålin; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : Sepsis defines as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. The importance of early administration of antibiotics in septic shock is undisputed, but the optimal antibiotic choice remains uncertain. READ MORE

  5. 13. Antibiotic Resistance and Population Dynamics of Escherichia coli in Relation to a Large Scale Antibiotic Consumption Intervention

    Author : Martin Sundqvist; Otto Cars; Gunnar Kahlmeter; Dan I Andersson; Jordi Vila; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : Antibiotic resistance challenges the practice and development of modern medicine. The aim of this thesis was to test the hypothesis that antibiotic resistance is reversible once the selection pressure of an antibiotic is removed. READ MORE

  6. 14. Pilicides and Curlicides : Design, synthesis, and evaluation of novel antibacterial agents targeting bacterial virulence

    Abstract : New strategies are needed to counter the growing problem of bacterial resistance to antibiotics. One such strategy is to design compounds that target bacterial virulence, which could work separately or in concert with conventional bacteriostatic or bactericidal antibiotics. READ MORE

  7. 15. Epidemiology of Enterococci with Acquired Resistance to Antibiotics in Sweden : Special emphasis on Ampicillin and Vancomycin

    Author : Erik Torell; Mats Kallin; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : The first hospital outbreak of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) and carriage rates of VRE and ampicillin-resistant enterococci (ARE) in Sweden were investigated. Clonal relationships and mutations in fluoroquinolone resistance determining regions among ARE collected nation-wide were studied. READ MORE
