1. Phase Transitions in Large Oscillator Lattices
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with large networks of limit cycle oscillators. A limit cycle oscillator is a dynamical system that has a periodic attractor in phase space, and is defined in continuous time. To each such oscillator one can associate a natural frequency. LÄS MER
2. Heart rate variability and pacemaker treatment in children with Fontan circulation
Sammanfattning : Background: Fontan surgery is performed in children with univentricular heart defects. Arrhythmias are frequent complications, occasionally requiring pacemaker treatment. Previous data regarding indications and risk factors for pacemaker treatment in Fontan patients is limited and conflicting. LÄS MER
3. Extratumoral effects of highly aggressive prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common cancer in Sweden. Most patients have slow growing tumors that will not cause them any harm within their lifetime, but some have aggressive tumors and will die from their disease. LÄS MER
4. Cardiac electrophysiologic effects of mental stress
Sammanfattning : Background: Mental stress may trigger serious arrhythmias. Mental stress tests cause significant increases in heart rate, blood pressure and cardiac output. When beta-adrenergic inhibition is considered for secondary antiarrhythmic prophylaxis beta1 selective agents are often preferred because of less adverse reactions. LÄS MER
5. Surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation : clinical, hormonal and electrophysiological aspects of the maze operation
Sammanfattning : Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia, associated with significant mortality and morbidity, due to hemodynamic impairment and the increased risk of stroke. Traditional pharmacological treatment may be insufficient or cause intolerable side-effects. LÄS MER
