  1. 6. Management and Outcome in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction from a Gender Perspective

    Författare :Sofia Sederholm Lawesson; Eva Swahn; Ulf Stenestrand; Joakim Alfredsson; Mats Eliasson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to evaluate baseline characteristics, management and outcome in real life ST-elevation myocardial infarction [STEMI] cohorts from a gender perspective. We aimed to evaluate the total STEMI population as well as certain subgroups, such as the youngest. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Targeted multiplex proteomics for risk stratification in patients with cardiovascular disease

    Författare :Emma Skau; Pär Hedberg; Jerzy Leppert; Johan Ärnlöv; Eva Swahn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiovascular disease; proteomics; myocardial infarction; peripheral arterial disease; biomarker; GDF-15; Cardiology; Kardiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Risk stratification is valuable in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Proteins involved in different pathophysiological processes in atherosclerosis have shown prognostic capacity. A new technology, Proximity Extension Assay (PEA), enables the simultaneous analysis of numerous plasma proteins from a minimal amount of plasma. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Detection of apoptosis in patients with coronary artery disease : Assessment of temporal patterns and potential sources

    Författare :Aleksander Szymanowski; Lennart Nilsson; Lena Jonasson; Eva Swahn; Stefan Jovinge; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The atherosclerotic process and its consequences are considered driven by an imbalance between pro- and ant-inflammatory actions. One contributing factor in this scenario is an altered regulation of apoptosis, which affects both immune, vascular and myocardial cells. LÄS MER

  4. 9. The right ventricle in volume or pressure overload : Insights from novel imaging techniques

    Författare :Aleksandra Trzebiatowska-Krzynska; Eva Swahn; Niels Erik Nielsen; Lars Wallby; Marcus Carlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This study is inspired by the gap in knowledge regarding the timing of cardiac surgery and interventions in adult patients with congenital heart disease. There are many parameters used assessing right ventricular function; however, most of them have pitfalls. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Strategies to improve outcome in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary PCI

    Författare :Tim Tödt; Eva Swahn; Jan Engvall; Magnus Janzon; Stefan James; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) caused by a ruptured atherosclerotic plaque with overlying thrombosis leads to ischemia and progressively to the death of the myocardial cells supplied by the affected coronary artery. Rapid reperfusion with primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) in an experienced centre is the preferred therapy for these patients. LÄS MER
