   Sammanfattning : Dietary fat quality influences the risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. A low-grade inflammation is suggested to contribute to the disease development, often accompanied by obesity. Whereas n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) have been considered anti-inflammatory, n-6 PUFA have been proposed to act pro-inflammatory. LÄS MER

4. 3. Cardiovascular effects of diesel exhaust : mechanistic and interventional studies

   Författare :Magnus Lundbäck; Anders Blomberg; Benoit Nemery; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; air pollution; diesel exhaust; nitrogen dioxide; endothelin-1; cardiovascular effects; exhaust particle trap; Lung diseases; Lungsjukdomar; lungmedicin; Lung Medicine;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Air pollution is associated with negative health effects. Exposure to combustion-derived particulate matter (PM) air pollution has been related to increased incidence of cardiovascular and respiratory morbidity and mortality, specifically in susceptible populations. Ambient particles, with a diameter of less than 2. LÄS MER

5. 4. Sleep and health-related quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure and their spouses : a descriptive and interventional study

   Författare :Anders Broström; Ella Danielsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Sammanfattning : The general aim of this thesis was to describe and compare the sleep situation and health-related quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure and their spouses, as well as to evaluate the effects of an intervention with 3-months ofhome based oxygen treatment. Descriptive designs were used to describe how patients with chronic heart failure conceived their sleep situation (I), decisive situations that influenced spouses' support to patients with chronic heart failure in relation to the couple's sleep situation (II), and self-assessed sleep difficulties, daytime sleepiness and their relation to health-related quality oflife in men and women with chronic heart failure, as well as to make a comparison with data from a norm population (III).

7. 5. Enhanced external counterpulsation treatment in patients with refractory angina pectoris with emphasis on physical capacity, health-related quality of life and safety : An explorative and interventional study

   Författare :Eline Wu; Jan Mårtensson; Anders Broström; Liyew Desta; Anna Ehrenberg; Jönköping University; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adverse event; enhanced external counterpulsation; experiences; health-related quality of life; physical capacity; refractory angina pectoris; safety;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Patients with refractory angina pectoris (RAP) suffer from debilitating symptoms with considerable limitation of functional capacity and impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL) despite optimised medical therapy. In addition, frequent angina symptoms are strongly associated with psychological distress. LÄS MER
