  4. 2. DNA damage affecting thyroidal iodide transport: an explanation to thyroid stunning

    Author : Madeleine Nordén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : thyroid; radioiodide; thyroid stunning; NIS; cell cycle; genotoxic stress; DNA damage; H2AX; ATM;

    Abstract : 131I is widely used clinically in the treatment of Graves´ disease and differentiated thyroid cancer. However, cellular and molecular effects of 131I irradiation in relation to absorbed dose are poorly documented. READ MORE

  5. 3. Assessment of cattle and pig welfare at stunning in commercial abattoirs

    Author : Sophie Atkinson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis aimed to develop and implement a standardised assessment for stun quality for use in commercial pig and cattle abattoirs to protect animal welfare. A stun quality protocol identified and rated symptoms signifying recovery risk and level of concern for inferior animal welfare. READ MORE

  7. 5. Clinical evaluation and implications of left atrial remodeling in atrial fibrillation : From silent cerebral lesions and atrial stunning to novel electrocardiographic tools for prediction of arrhythmia outcome

    Author : Panagiotis Arvanitis; Carina Blomström-Lundqvist; Mårten Rosenqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Atrial fibrillation; left atrial remodeling; recurrence; new-onset; silent cerebral lesions; white matter hyperintensities; cardioversion; pulmonary vein isolation; risk factors; electrocardiographic predictors; P-wave indices; machine learning; predictive models; Covid-19;

    Abstract : Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. Left atrial (LA) remodeling and reverse remodeling are associated with cerebral involvement and cognitive function (CF) changes. Risk stratification for AF related outcomes is essential in the management of patients with AF. READ MORE
