1. 11. Left ventricular reconstruction in ischemic heart disease

   Författare :Ulrik Sartipy; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Left ventricular reconstruction; surgical ventricular restoration; heart failure surgery; left ventricular aneurysm; ischemic heart disease; cardiac remodeling; surgery for ventricular tachycardia;

   Sammanfattning : Objectives: [1] To review our experience with left ventricular reconstruction (LVR) regarding safety (early mortality and morbidity) and long-term survival (Study I). [2] To evaluate LVR including surgery for ventricular tachycardia in patients with preoperative spontaneous or inducible ventricular tachycardia (Study II). LÄS MER

3. 12. Myocardial metabolism in experimental infarction and heart failure

   Författare :Truls Råmunddal; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Myocardial metabolism; Heart failure; Myocardial infarction; Lipotoxic heart disease; Apolipoprotein B; Arrhythmias; Cardiac reserve; Creatine metabolism;

   Sammanfattning : Abstract The heart is an organ heavily dependent on exogenous lipids for the oxidative production of adenosine-triphosphate (ATP) and therefore maintenance of normal cellular energy homeostasis. However, high energy flux organs such as the heart must closely match lipid import and utilization or otherwise lipids will accumulate in the cardiomyocytes. LÄS MER

4. 13. Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in 75-year-old Men and Women : A Community-based Study of Prevalence, Screening and Mitral Annulus Motion for Diagnosis and Prognostics

   Författare :Pär Hedberg; Tommy Jonason; Ivar Ringqvist; Eva Nylander; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Aged; Heart Failure; Ventricular Function; Prevalence; Echocardiography; Electrocardiography; Natriuretic Peptide; Mortality; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Sammanfattning : Reduced performance of the left ventricle to eject blood – left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) – is a common predecessor of the heart failure syndrome. With or without symptoms, LVSD is associated with a poor prognosis. LÄS MER

5. 14. Treatment of Right Ventricular Failure through Partial Volume Exclusion : An Experimental Study

   Författare :Per Vikholm; Laila Hellgren; Lund Lars; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Right Heart Failure; Left Ventricular Assist Device; Glenn shunt; Thorax Surgery; Thoraxkirurgi;

   Sammanfattning : Implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is a potential treatment in terminal heart failure. Right ventricular (RV) failure is a severe complication in these patients and sometimes requires additional placement of a right ventricular assist device (RVAD). LÄS MER

7. 15. Myocardial creatine metabolism in experimental infarction and heart failure

   Författare :Malin Lindbom; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Energy metabolism; Creatine; Congestive heart failure; Myocardial infarction; Ventricular arrhythmias; Cardiac remodeling; apolipoprotein B; Lipid metabolism;

   Sammanfattning : The failing heart is characterized by changes in structure, function and metabolism. All these changes are usually defined as pathologic remodelling. An important part of this negative remodelling process is disturbances in the myocardial energy metabolism. LÄS MER
