  1. 16. Early parathyroidectomy in mild primary hyperparathyroidism: Effects on heart and bones

    Författare :Erik Almqvist; Kirurgi; []

    Sammanfattning : There is an ongoing controversy regarding how to take care of patients with mild primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Some recommend surgical treatment at diagnosis, others just follow-up as long as there is no evidence of disease progression. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. Late effects in young adult survivors

    Författare :Marianne Jarfelt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia; adult survivor; GH secretion; body composition; bone mineral density; exercise echocardiography;

    Sammanfattning : Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common malignancy in children. The 5-year survival rate has gradually increased from 5% in early 1970s to over 80% today. Until now most patients have been discharged from further follow up after puberty. LÄS MER

  3. 18. The clinical value of total isovolumic time

    Författare :Gani Bajraktari; Michael Henein; Krister Lindmark; Lars-Åke Brodin; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Heart failure; cardiac resynchronization therapy; predictors; echocardiography; total isovolumic time; six-minute walk test; left ventricular dyssynchrony;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis is to evaluate the use of Doppler echocardiography markers ofglobal dyssynchrony [total isovolumic time (t-IVT)] in the following 6 studies: 1) Its prognostic role in predicting cardiac events in patients undergoing CABG surgery,compared with conventional global systolic and diastolic measurements. 2) Its additional value in predicting six minute walk test (6-MWT) in patients with leftventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) .

  4. 19. Exercise in patients with chronic heart failure. With emphasis on peripheral muscle training, hydrotherapy and type 2 diabetes mellitus

    Författare :Åsa Cider; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Exercise tolerance; Ejection fraction; Metabolic function; Muscle function; Oxygen uptake; Physical therapy techniques; Quality of life; Rehabilitation; Stroke volume; Water immersion;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic heart failure (CHF) is not uncommon in developed countries with a growing ageing population. CHF is a chronic syndrome, which markedly impact negatively on the patient s life situation. Considerable impaired physical function and reduced health related quality of life is often present.

    Nyckelord :pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum; ventriculo coronary arterial communications; biventricular repair; univentricular palliation; myocardial perfusion; myocardial function; cardiopulmonary exercise; lung function; quality of life; mortality; outcome;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: To describe children born with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA-IVS) in Sweden between 1980 and 1999, the incidence and outcome of PA-IVS, to examine cardio-pulmonary outcomes in survivors and to evaluate their quality of life. Material and methods: Eighty-four subjects were identified. LÄS MER
