  1. 6. Physical Activity and Cardiovascular Disease

    Författare :Kasper Andersen; Johan Sundström; Claes Held; Frieder Braunschweig; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physical activity; epidemiology; cohort study; heart failure; cardiovascular disease; arrhythmias; atrial fibrillation; bradyarrhythmias; sudden cardiac death; heart failure; stroke; ischemic heart disease; cardiovascular death; maximal exercise capacity; muscle strength; skeletal muscle morphology; Kardiologi; Cardiology; Epidemiology; Epidemiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The aim was to investigate associations of fitness and types and levels of physical activity with subsequent risk of cardiovascular disease.Four large-scale longitudinal cohort studies were used. The exposures were different measures related to physical activity and the outcomes were obtained through linkage to the Swedish In-Patient Register. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation and Atrial Flutter : A Comparison of Cryo and Radiofrequency Techniques

    Författare :Helena Malmborg; Carina Blomström-Lundqvist; Stefan Lönnerholm; Pekka Raatikainen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFl) are two of the most common arrhythmias encountered in the population. Catheter ablation has emerged as a useful tool in the treatment of these arrhythmias. Although radiofrequency (RF) is the most commonly used energy source for ablation, cryoenergy may have some advantageous properties. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Cryoablation of cardiac arrhythmias

    Författare :Hamid Bastani; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis evaluates the safety and efficacy of cryoablation in supraventricular tachyarrhythmias. In Study I, the acute and long-term outcome of cryoablation therapy of typical atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) was studied in a large series of patients (n=312). LÄS MER

  5. 9. Environmental exposures and cardiac arrhythmias

    Författare :Marcus Dahlquist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiac arrhythmias lead to substantial mortality and morbidity world-wide. The most severe form of cardiac arrhythmia, cardiac arrest, is one of the leading causes of death in Europe and North America. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Metabolic aspects of cardiac arrhythmias

    Författare :Sigfus Gizurarson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kardiologi; Electrofysiologi; Djurexperiment; Metabolism;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiac arrhythmias are an important cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with cardiac diseases. Sudden death due to ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation (VT/VF) in the setting of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and heart failure (HF) is a frequent cause of premature death. LÄS MER
