6. Clinical And Experimental Studies of Contact Allergy to Stent Metals - with focus on gold
Sammanfattning : A large number of patients are treated with coronary stents, and restenosis (recurrent narrowing of the vessel) is a serious problem. Contact allergy to metal ions eluted from stainless steel stents has been suggested to contribute to in-stent restenosis. LÄS MER
7. Experimental studies on thrombin inhibition in acute- and chronic models of vessel wall injury
Sammanfattning : Background: The number of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) performed worldwide has increased dramatically during the last decade. Complication rates have decreased over time, however the restenosis phenomenon remains an unsolved issue. Thrombin is the key regulator in the pro-coagulant state following PCI. LÄS MER
8. On secondary prevention after acute coronary syndrome : -what, when, and who
Sammanfattning : BackgroundCardiovascular disease, of which coronary heart disease constitutes the lion’s share, is the leading cause of premature morbidity and mortality worldwide. Management of the condition has evolved rapidly in recent decades, and mortality has more than halved in the western world. LÄS MER
9. Factors influencing prognosis in acute coronary syndrome - A report from the SWEDEHEART registry
Sammanfattning : Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is one of the major causes of mortality in the world. The prognosis for patients with ACS is affected by several factors, such as baseline characteristics and treatment before, during and after hospitalisation. . LÄS MER
10. The role of C-reactive protein in percutaneous coronary intervention
Sammanfattning : An elevated preprocedural plasma or serum C-reactive protein (CRP) level in patients undergoing percutanous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with short-, intermediate- and long-term outcome. Furthermore, the procedure itself has been shown to provoke an inflammatory reaction as shown by increased plasma CRP levels after PCI. LÄS MER
