1. Heparin coating and cardiotomy suction in cardiopulmonary bypass
Sammanfattning : The present thesis addresses various means of reducing inflammatory responses associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and retransfusion of pericardial suction blood (PSB) during cardiac surgery. Four (I-IV) prospective randomised controlled clinical trials comprising 475 patients were performed in the following areas: effects of heparin coating on measures of clinical outcome and memory function (I, II), inflammatory reactions in PSB and its systemic effects after retransfusion using cardiotomy suction or cell salvage (III) and effects of retransfusion of PSB on memory function and release patterns of protein S100B (IV).

2. Biomarkers in mid-trimester amniotic fluid in relation to gestational duration and spontaneous preterm delivery
Sammanfattning : Background: The biological mechanisms and physiological pathways of pregnancy maintenance and timing of delivery are complex and multifactorial. Pregnancy clocks, partly controlled by timing mechanisms linked to fetal development, which regulate the onset of labor has previously been described. LÄS MER
3. Detection and outcome of mild traumatic brain injury in patients and sportsmen : persisting symptoms, disabilities and life satisfaction in relation to S-100B, NSE and cortisol
Sammanfattning : Traumatic brain injuries are common (hospitalization incidence: 250-300 per 100.000 inhabitants/year) and a great majority of these injuries (80-85%) are classified as mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI/concussion). Many patients with MTBI (20-80%) suffer from subsequent persistent and often disabling symptoms. LÄS MER

5. Antimicrobial peptides and proteins in host-microbe interaction and immediate defense
Sammanfattning : Antimicrobial peptides and proteins (AMPs) are effector molecules of innate immunity and are capable to kill a broad spectrum of microbes, i.e. bacteria, fungi and viruses. They are widespread in nature and have been found in almost all species of the animal kingdom, as well as in plants. LÄS MER
