6. Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair: Aspects of follow-up and complications
Sammanfattning : Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) is the procedure of choice in most patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm. The drawbacks of EVAR are a higher rate of complications and frequent need for reinterventions, requiring regular postoperative follow-up. LÄS MER
7. Trauma Care - Implementation, Evaluation and Validation
Sammanfattning : Trauma is a major cause of death and morbidity in all ages, which makes continuous improvement of trauma care a high priority. During the last decades, Sweden’s trauma system has evolved with initiation of a national trauma registry (SweTrau) in 2011 and the Swedish National Trauma Triage criteria (SNTTC) in 2017. LÄS MER
8. Vascular remodelling and circulating basement membrane fragments in abdominal aortic aneurysm
Sammanfattning : An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a degenerative disease, characterized by advanced inflammation and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling. Enhanced protease activity mediated by cytokines results in the degradation of ECM proteins, leading to the generation of different bioactive fragments. LÄS MER
9. Screening for asymptomatic carotid atherosclerosis
Sammanfattning : Ischemic stroke is the most common cause of handicap in adults and the third most common cause of death in Sweden. Internal carotid artery atherosclerosis is an important cause and accounts for 20% of ischemic strokes. Screening for carotid atherosclerosis has been debated over the past two decades. LÄS MER
10. On Pathophysiology and Treatment of Aortic Disease
Sammanfattning : Pathophysiological processes underlying abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) formation and aortic dissections (AD) are largely unknown. Molecular imaging of the inflammatory component may improve our understanding of AAA and AD pathophysiology. LÄS MER
