  1. 1. Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction - Early predictors of outcome

    Författare :Thorkell Snaebjörnsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Knee; ACL; registry; hamstring tendon; anterior cruciate ligament; patellar tendon; graft failure; graft fixation; graft diameter; autograft; revision; outcome;

    Sammanfattning : The rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a serious injury, often resulting in functional instability and increased laxity of the knee joint. Patients suffering an ACL injury run the risk of further complications, such as meniscal or cartilage injury in the short term and degeneration of the knee joint in the long term. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Clinical Findings and Outcome after Stroke. Including a Translational Stem Cell Therapy Perspective

    Författare :Hossein Delavaran; Lund Neurologi; []
    Nyckelord :stroke; recovery; outcome; cognitive function; Upper extremity motor impairment; Stem cell therapy;

    Sammanfattning : Background and Purpose: Stroke is one of the dominant causes of death and adult disability in the world. There is a need for novel therapeutic approaches to improve functional recovery and outcome after stroke, and experimental studies have shown that stem cell-based therapies (SCT) hold much potential in this regard.

  3. 3. Congenital clubfoot : Aspects on epidemiology, residual deformity and patient reported outcome

    Författare :Henrik M Wallander; Göran Hansson; Sune Larsson; Michael Benson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Congenital clubfoot; incidence; ultrasonography; forefoot adduction; navicular position; spurious correction; Ilizarov External Fixator; subjective outcome; stiffness; patient reported outcome; norm group; gender difference; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis on congenital clubfoot was to estimate the incidence with a national perspective, analyse residual deformities and their management, and evaluate patient reported long-term quality of life and foot function. Paper I was a prospective, nationwide sampling of 280 children with congenital clubfoot during 1995-96. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Achilles Tendon Ruptures Predictors; functional and economic impact

    Författare :Olof Westin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Achilles tendon rupture; re-rupture; predictors of outcome; health economics; Achilles tendon Total Rupture Score ATRS ;

    Sammanfattning : Acute Achilles tendon rupture is a common injury, which leads to significant morbidity in patients. Many patients never recover their full function even after long rehabilitation, whereas others make a good recovery. The factors behind this are unknown. The optimal treatment strategy, whether or not to treat surgically, is still controversial. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Long-term functional outcome after ischemic stroke: Prognostic value of early identification of neglect and aphasia

    Författare :Joel Gerafi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; visuospatial inattention; language impairment; long-term functional outcome; ischemic stroke; neglect; aphasia;

    Sammanfattning : Early symptoms of neglect and aphasia are often observed after ischemic stroke and have been associated with unfavorable short-term functional outcomes within one year post-stroke. However, there is a lack of studies with inclusion of both neglect and aphasia as potential predictors that have studied long-term functional outcomes exceeding one year after stroke. LÄS MER
