1. Cardiac Microvascular Disease Quantified with CMR
Sammanfattning : This thesis has investigated three different diagnoses where cardiac microvascular disease is suspected: hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), systemic sclerosis (SSc), and patients with suspected microvascular angina (MVA).Study I of this thesis investigated patients with HCM. LÄS MER
2. Cardiac abnormalities in chronic kidney disease
Sammanfattning : Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health problem associated with increased risk of mortality and development of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality even before the development of ESRD. LÄS MER
3. Prognostic impact of coronary microvascular funtion in patients with ischemic heart disease
Sammanfattning : Background: Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death globally. Despite recent advances in interventional and medical therapies, survivors of myocardial infarction are at high risk of recurrent cardiovascular events. LÄS MER
4. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, with focus on vascular wall changes, cardiac risk-factor awareness and cardiovascular events
Sammanfattning : Systemic Lupus Erythematosus is an autoimmune disease with a wide range of disease manifestations with respect to severity and magnitude of organ involvement. An increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared with the general population causes both morbidity and mortality in SLE patients. LÄS MER
5. Myocardial Topical Negative Pressure
Sammanfattning : The aim of this research was to find out if it is possible to increase myocardial microvasular blood flow by applying a topical negative pressure source directly onto the myocardium. Topical negative pressure is a relatively new wound healing technique. LÄS MER
