1. Blood pressure-dependent changes in plasma volume, glycocalyx and platelet function during anaesthesia -Clinical and experimental studies
Sammanfattning : Background: Worldwide, more than 300 million surgeries are performed each year. General anaesthesia provides the surgical patient with a state of controlled loss of sensation and awareness. It is common that general anaesthesia causes hypotension. Anaesthesia-induced hypotension is associated with haemodilution and increased plasma volume (PV). LÄS MER
2. Cardiovascular risk factors for falls and fractures in the elderly
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
3. Blood pressure in very old age : determinants, adverse outcomes, and heterogeneity
Sammanfattning : Background: High blood pressure (BP) is the leading risk factor for disease and mortality worldwide. However, risks associated with high BP in very old age (≥ 80 or ≥ 85 years) are not entirely understood, as the majority of scientific studies have been performed with younger populations and existing scientific knowledge about very old individuals is sometimes contradictory.

4. Posture and brain function in dementia. A study with special reference to orthostatic hypotension
Sammanfattning : Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is believed to be an important cause of cerebral hypoperfusion, leading to chronic fatigue, blurred vision, unsteadiness, dizziness and sometimes syncope. It may also result in episodes of confusion, falls and fractures. The coupling between OH and organic dementia is not clear. LÄS MER
5. Cardiovascular health, orthostatic hypotension, and cognitive aging
Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular health (CVH) plays an important role in dementia development. Ideal CVH, defined by Life’s Simple 7 (LS7), has been associated with a lower risk of dementia in older adults. Orthostatic hypotension (OH) may be a novel cardiovascular risk factor that can affect dementia development. LÄS MER
