  1. 1. Hip Revision Surgery : Identification of Genetic Markers and Evaluation of Novel Treatment Strategies

    Author : Anders Brüggemann; Nils Hailer; Hans Mallmin; Karl Michaëlsson; Olle Nilsson; Per Wretenberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is, despite its overall good outcome, for some patients followed by hip revision surgery. This seems in parts to be because of genetic susceptibility to revision surgery. The most common reason for revision surgery is aseptic loosening followed by periprosthetic joint infection and dislocation. READ MORE

  2. 2. Early Mortality After Total Hip Arthroplasty In Sweden

    Author : Anne Garland; Nils Hailer; Ashley Blom; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : early mortality; total hip replacement; total hip arthroplasty; comorbidity; socioeconomic factor; cemented; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

    Abstract : Every year 16 000 individuals receive a total hip arthroplasty (THA) in Sweden. Even though THA is a common procedure, adverse events do occur. The most dramatic complication is death in the postoperative phase. The overall aim of this thesis was to describe and investigate early mortality after THA in Sweden. READ MORE

  3. 3. Form and Finish of Implants in Uncemented Hip Arthroplasty : Effects of Different Shapes and Surface Treatments on Implant Stability

    Author : Stergios Lazarinis; Nils P. Hailer; Lars Weidenhielm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Form; Finish; Total hip arthroplasty; Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register; Hydroxyapatite; RSA; DXA; BMD; Stability.; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

    Abstract : The design of an uncemented hip arthroplasty implant affects its long-term survival. Characteristics such as the form and the finish of the implant are crucial in order to achieve the best possible conditions for long-term implant survival. READ MORE

  4. 4. New Biomarkers for Neuromuscular Function and Myasthenia Gravis

    Author : Carl Johan Molin; Anna Rostedt Punga; Johan Widenfalk; Nils Hailer; Jan Verschuuren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biomarkers; myasthenia gravis; neuromuscular function; neurophysiology;

    Abstract : Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder, which is caused by autoantibodies against the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). The cardinal symptom is muscle fatigue, which can range from slight weakness of the extraocular muscles (causing droopy eyelids or double vision), to paralysis of the respiratory muscles. READ MORE

  5. 5. Finger Joint Reconstruction with Rib Perichondrium

    Author : Daniel Muder; Torbjörn Vedung; Nils Hailer; Ola Nilsson; Simon Farnebo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; finger joint; reconstruction; cartilage; transplantation; osteoarthritis; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

    Abstract : Difficulties in repairing and reconstructing articular cartilage damaged by trauma or disease remain unsolved and are one of the major challenges confronting orthopedic and hand surgeons in their clinical work. Relevant research has not adequately described the long-term clinical results, nor has it made a direct comparison to implant surgery after finger joint reconstruction with rib perichondrium.
