1. 11. Neutrophil granule proteins : modulators of the immune response

   Författare :Oliver Söhnlein; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) are multifunctional cells of the innate immune system which represent the advance guard in inflammatory reactions. Via the release of granule proteins the PMN communicates with the endothelium, monocytes, dendritic cells, and lymphocytes and is thereby critically involved in the fine tuning of the host defense system.

3. 12. Clinical and pathophysiological aspects of sepsis

   Författare :Anna Linnér; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Severe sepsis and septic shock represent challenging problems for the health care system. Despite adequate antibiotics and modern intensive care, severe sepsis is associated with a substantial mortality rate of around 30%, which rises even higher if exacerbated by septic shock, and the incidence continues to increase.

4. 13. Vascular effects of endothelin in experimental lung injury

   Författare :Björn P Persson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :acute lung injury;

   Sammanfattning : Acute lung injury remains a frequent and life threatening consequence of severe sepsis. This thesis has investigated the role of the endothelin (ET) system in sepsis-induced lung injury, with special reference to its effects on two hallmarks of this syndrome - formation of edema and pulmonary hypertension.

5. 14. Post-cardiac arrest care. Targeted temperature management and coronary care

   Författare :Josef Dankiewicz; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiac arrest; Infection; Prognostication; Coronary Angiography; Hypothermia;

   Sammanfattning : AbstractOut-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a devastating manifestation of coronary artery disease. For patients who are initially resuscitated and are admitted to an intensive care unit, mortality is high. Roughly half of all patients die, primarily due to neurological injury. LÄS MER

7. 15. Phagocytic cells and Streptococcus pyogenes in invasive infections : an inflammatory relationship

   Författare :Johanna Snäll; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Severe Streptococcus pyogenes infections, such as streptococcal toxic shock syndrome and necrotizing soft tissue infections, are rare but life threatening conditions. They are characterized by high bacterial load and a hyper-inflammatory state. The aim of this thesis was to investigate interactions between S. LÄS MER
