    Sammanfattning : The pathological process behind abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) formation is poorly understood and difficult to study. The aim of the thesis was to study the pathophysiology of AAA formation with positron emission tomography (PET) technology, a molecular imaging technique, allowing in vivo studies of pathophysiological changes.

  3. 17. Aspects of subaneurysmal aortas in a screening setting

    Författare :Knut Thorbjørnsen; Anders Wanhainen; Sverker Svensjö; Khatereh Djavani Gidlund; Håkan Pärsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Abdominal aortic aneurysm; subaneurysmal aorta; screening; health related quality of life; health utility; quality adjusted life years; Kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : With the introduction of screening programmes for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) more individuals are being identified with a subaneurymal aorta (SAA; diameter 25-29mm). More recent data indicate that these aortas may not be as harmless as previously thought, but there is, however, no general agreement on how SAA should be managed. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Advancing Endovascular Management of Thoracic Aortic Disease

    Författare :William J. Yoon; Anders Wanhainen; Kevin Mani; Thomas Forbes; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Thoracic endovascular aortic repair; branched thoracic endograft; dissection specific stent graft; computational fluid dynamics; automated image analysis; Kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Despite technological advances and new endograft designs, endovascular treatment of the thoracic aorta still has important limitations. The aims of this thesis were to obtain further understanding on specific limitations in treating complex thoracic aortic pathologies with current technologies, to gain more insights into the hemodynamic consequences of thoracic endografting, and to explores the potential of deep learning algorithm-based automatic assessment of follow-up CTA imaging.

  5. 19. Essays on Cognitive Development and Medical Care

    Författare :Mattias Öhman; Matz Dahlberg; Erik Grönqvist; Louise von Essen; Martin Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Fluoride; Cognitive ability; Non-cognitive ability; Income; Education; Employment; Dental health; Mortality; Information; Health; Screening; Abdominal aortic aneurysm; Myocardial infarction; Antidepressants; SSRI; Propensity score matching; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four self-contained papers.Essay I (with Linuz Aggeborn): Fluoridation of the drinking water is a public policy whose aim is to improve dental health. Although the evidence is clear that fluoride is good for dental health, concerns have been raised regarding potential negative effects on cognitive development. LÄS MER
