2. 1. Acute Pancreatitis. Biomarkers and radiology assessment

   Author : Hanna Sternby; Kirurgi; []
   Keywords : acute pancreatitis; severity grade; Biomarkers; morphology; classification; radiology assessment; Acute pancreatitis; severity grade; Biomarkers; morphology; classification; radiology assessment;

   Abstract : Background: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common and potentially severe disease. Early identification of severity grade is crucial for the outcome of the patient. For study approaches and comparison of inter-institutional data the AP patients need to be uniformly classified. READ MORE

4. 2. Ventricular Depolarization in Ischemic Heart Disease.Value of Electrocardiography in Assessment of Severity and Extent of Acute Myocardial Ischemia

   Author : Michael Ringborn; Kardiologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute myocardial ischemia; Acute myocardial infarction; Severity of ischemia; QRS changes; HF-QRS; QRS slopes; Depolarization changes; Myocardium at risk; Final infarct size; SPECT.;

   Abstract : Background In patients with symptoms compatible with acute myocardial infarction (MI), early triage by ECG in the pre-hospital phase by ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) criteria is important for direct transport of these patients to a regional center for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). The time from first medical contact to pPCI should, due to present guidelines, be no longer than two hours. READ MORE

5. 3. Suggested next steps to prevent cervical cancer after surgical treatment for high-grade cervical dysplasia

   Author : David Megyessi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The risk of cervical cancer among women treated for high-grade cervical dysplasia is more than twofold compared with the general population, and this risk remains elevated for over two decades. In Sweden, cervical cancer incidence is rising again and the risk of cervical cancer among women with a prior history of high-grade cervical dysplasia has increased since the 1960s. READ MORE

6. 4. Urinary tract infection in small children: aspects of bacteriology, vesicoureteral reflux and renal damage

   Author : Svante Swerkersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Children; Urinary tract infection; Vesicoureteral reflux; Renal damage; Bacterial count; Recurrence; Antibiotic resistance; Urine sampling;

   Abstract : Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a prevalent bacterial infection in children. The diagnosis is based on growth of bacteria in urine specimen and treatment is chosen out of knowledge of the present antimicrobial resistance situation. Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a well-known risk factor for UTI in children. READ MORE

   Abstract : Bone cementation implantation syndrome (BCIS) has significant morbidity and mortality for patients who are undergoing cemented hip hemiarthroplasty or arthroplasty. The aim of this thesis is to contribute with information of the epidemiological parameters of BCIS and identify risk factors. READ MORE
