1. 1. Nitric Oxide Exchange in Central and Peripheral Airways : Determinants in Health and Respiratory Disease

   Författare :Andrei Malinovschi; Christer Janson; Kjell Alving; Lena Holm; Elisabeth Bel; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :exhaled nitric oxide; alveolar NO; bronchial NO flux; extended NO analysis; asthma; smoking; snus; IgE-sensitization; pharyngo-oral tract; nitrate; nitrite; pulmonary hypertension;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Exhaled nitric oxide (NO) is a marker of eosinophilic steroid-sensitive inflammation in the airways of patients with respiratory disease. Moreover, information about the localization of inflammation in the respiratory tree is obtained by estimates of bronchial and alveolar contributions to exhaled NO. LÄS MER

3. 2. Function and morbidity of the esophagus and respiratory system in the growing child with esophageal atresia

   Författare :Felipe Donoso; Helene Engstrand Lilja; Andrei Malinovschi; Christer Janson; Kate Abrahamsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :esophageal atresia; lung function; pulmonary function; pH-metry; PPI; anastomotic stricture; Barnkirurgi; Pediatric Surgery;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Esophageal atresia (EA) is a congenital malformation that consists of various degrees of discontinuity of the esophagus and affects about 1:3000 live births. EA is usually corrected at birth with survival rates over 90%, which has shifted the focus towards improvement of associated morbidity and health-related quality of life. LÄS MER

4. 3. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: exacerbations and mortality : Prognostic value of biomarkers and comorbidities

   Författare :Jens Ellingsen; Andrei Malinovschi; Christer Janson; Arnulf Langhammer; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; COPD; exacerbations; mortality; biomarkers; comorbidity; Lungmedicin; Lung Medicine;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. COPD is associated with systemic inflammation, and comorbidities are common. A characteristic feature is acute exacerbations (AECOPDs), i.e. LÄS MER

5. 4. Lung function in relation to exercise capacity in health and disease

   Författare :Amir Farkhooy; Andrei Malinovschi; Christer Janson; Hans Hedenström; Harrpa Arnardottir; Ann Ekberg Jansson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Exercise capacity; Exercise test; Lung function; Spirometri; Diffusion capacity; COPD; Pulmonary hypertension; Clinical Physiology; Klinisk fysiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Exercise capacity (EC) is widely recognized as a strong and independent predictor of mortality and disease progression in various diseases, including cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. Furthermore, it is generally accepted that exercise capacity in healthy individuals and in patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases is mainly limited by the maximum cardiac output. LÄS MER

7. 5. Cardiopulmonary Function in Healthy Individuals and in Patients After Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

   Författare :Margareta Genberg; Andrei Malinovschi; Eva Nylander; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; echocardiography; cardiopulmonary execise testing; stress testing; onchology; childhood leukemia; healthy adults; breathing reserve; oxygen uptake; Clinical Physiology; Klinisk fysiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Background: The cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) is the gold standard of clinical exercise tests, combining conventional stress testing with measurement of oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production. In order to interpret CPET findings, adequate reference values are needed. Currently, no Swedish reference values exist. LÄS MER
