    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the third most common cardiovascular disease with a high recurrence rate. There is a risk of chronic complications affecting health- related quality-of life (QoL). LÄS MER

  3. 17. Gallbladder and pancreatic disease in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis

    Författare :Karouk Said; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Cholecystitis; gallbladder; ejection fraction; magnetic resonance imaging; pancreatic duct; chronic pancreatitis; thioredoxin; Immunohistochemical staining;

    Sammanfattning : The aims of this study were to assess the occurrence of gallbladder abnormalities and dysfunction, to evaluate clinically useful biomarkers for premalignancy and malignancy in gallbladder epithelium and to assess presence of pancreatic duct changes and early pancreatic abnormalities in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). In paper I and III we investigated presence of gallbladder abnormalities in 286 patients with PSC treated at Karolinska University Hospital, Huddinge, between 1970 and 2005. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Presence of microemboli during haemodialysis and methods to reduce the exposure to microbubbles

    Författare :Forsberg Ulf; Bernd Stegmayr; Per Jonsson; Ingela Fehrman Ekholm; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Haemodialysis; in vivo; microemboli; microbubbles; dialyzer; air trap; venous chamber;

    Sammanfattning : Despite chronic dialysis treatment, patients with end stage renal disease undergoing maintenance haemodialysis (HD) remain at a substantially increased risk of morbidity. Previous reports using Doppler ultrasound (DU) during HD have revealed microembolic signals (ME) in the venous circulation. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Factors influencing physical activity in patients with venous leg ulcer

    Författare :Kirsti Skavberg Roaldsen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background and Aim: Venous leg ulcer is a chronic condition characterized by a cyclical pattern of healing and recurrence leading to pain, disability, inactivity and reduced health. Physical activity is beneficial for venous circulation and general health, but knowledge is needed of determinants of physical activity and of possibilities for patients with leg ulcer to be physically active.
