  2. 1. Factor V Leiden mutation and pregnancy. Haemostasis during pregnancy in non-carriers and carriers of factor V Leiden mutation, with special emphasis on placenta-mediated and venous thromboembolic complications and on blood coagulation and fibrinolysis markers for prediction of complications

    Author : Ulla Kjellberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Activated protein C; D-dimer; Factor V Leiden; fibrinolysis; haemostasis; obstetric complications; platelet function; pregnancy; prothrombin fragment 1 2; soluble fibrin; Sonoclot; thrombosis;

    Abstract : Factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation elevates the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in general. During pregnancy, the haemostatic balance is changed in the direction of hypercoagulability, resulting in an increased incidence of VTE. 42 women were followed longitudinally during pregnancy and the puerperium.

  4. 2. Aspects on the cytokine load in trauma with special reference to blood components and local versus systemic cytokine activity

    Author : Marianne Kristiansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Autotransfusion Coagulation Cytokines Cytokine inhibitors Fibrinolysis Infection Red blood cell concentrates Surgery Trauma. Stockholm 1997;

    Abstract : Cytokines and their inhibitors are thought to be involved in many of the pathophysiological changes associated with trauma and infection. Therapeutic measures such as transfusion of blood components could have a bearing on the systemic cytokine load in these conditions. READ MORE

  5. 3. The effect of thrombin inhibitors on coagulation activity and generation of activated protein C

    Author : Rikard Linder; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The direct thrombin inhibitor inogatran was, in the TRIM trial (n=1209), compared with unfractionated heparin (UFH) concerning the effect on cardiovascular end-points in unstable coronary artery disease. The results in TRIM demonstrated a trend towards a benefit for UFH during the treatment phase, which was reduced after drug withdrawal. READ MORE

  6. 4. Molecular Mechanisms in Endothelial Cell Differentiation

    Author : Emma Rennel; Pär Gerwins; Lena Claesson-Welsh; Ian Zachary; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pathology; angiogenesis; FGF-2; VEGF-A; signal transduction; in vitro angiogenesis assay; immortalized brain endothelial cells; H-Ras; tetracycline-regulated gene expression; microarray; telomerase immortalized human microvascular endothelial cells; differentiation; Patologi; Pathology; Patologi;

    Abstract : Angiogenesis is the formation of new blood vessels from the pre-existing blood vessels. Blood vessels are composed of endothelial cells and supporting musculature. Angiogenesis is regulated by numerous soluble ligands and by cell-matrix interactions. READ MORE

  7. 5. Coagulation, fibrinolysis and inflammation in open surgery for infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm

    Author : Anders Holmberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Abdominal aortic aneurysm; blood coagulation; fibrinolysis; cytokines; leucocytes; flow cytometry; chemotaxis; lactoferrin; myeloperoxidase; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Surgery; kirurgi;

    Abstract : Elective repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) carries a mortality of 4-8% and there is a substantial incidence of serious non-lethal complications. During surgery there is a situation of relative ischaemia and subsequent reperfusion of the lower part of the body. READ MORE
