  1. 1. Acute Occlusion of the Superior Mesenteric Artery : Diagnosis and treatment

    Författare :Tomas Block; Stefan Acosta; Martin Björck; Torbjörn Nilsson; Ulf Hedin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; superior mesenteric artery; acute mesenteric ischemia; acute thrombo-embolic occlusion; computed tomography; vascular surgery; serum biomarkers; microarray; intestinal revascularization; Vascular surgery; Kärlkirurgi; Kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Acute occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) is a condition associated with high mortality and morbidity. The aim of this thesis is to evaluate diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for acute SMA occlusion. LÄS MER

  3. 2. On Acute Thrombo-Embolic Occlusion of the Superior Mesenteric Artery

    Författare :Stefan Acosta; Martin Björck; Mats Ögren; Bengt Lindblad; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; acute thrombo-embolic occlusion; superior mesenteric artery; intestinal infarction; D-Dimer; intestinal revascularisation; population-based study; incidence; autopsy; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Acute thrombo-embolic occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) with intestinal infarction is a lethal disease, difficult to diagnose in time, with unknown incidence and cause-specific mortality. The aim of this thesis was to characterize the disease and to develop diagnostic methods. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Mesenteric lymph node spread and optimal lymph node resection in colon cancer

    Författare :Fredrik Olofsson; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Colon cancer; lymph node; right hemicolectomy; inferior mesenteric artery; CME;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction Colon cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer world wide, with an incidence of almost 1 million cases anually. Surgery is a prerequisite for cure and the majority of patients are potentially curable at diagnosis. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Molecular Mechanisms in Vascular Endothelin B Receptor Up-Regulation

    Författare :Erik Uddman; Lund Medicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kardiovaskulära systemet; Cardiovascular system; reverse; in vitro pharmacology; organ culture; Endothelin receptors; up-regulation;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular diseases are characterized by changes in morphology and function of the blood vessels. Different signalling molecules are involved in these changes. Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is one of the most potent signalling molecules found in man. Its actions are mediated by two receptors, the ETA and the ETB receptors. LÄS MER

  7. 5. A study of potassium channel activation as a pharmacological principle for vasodilation of cerebral blood vessels

    Författare :Torsten Ryman; Avdelningen för klinisk kemi och farmakologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacological sciences; cerebral arteries; Cerebral ischemia; Potassium channel openers; vascular endothelium; EDHF; KRN2391; KATP; Pinacidil; pharmacognosy; pharmacy; toxicology; Farmakologi; farmakognosi; farmaci; toxikologi;

    Sammanfattning : Increasing [K+]o is intimately coupled to progressive ischemia and reduced CBF. In isolated cerebral and mesenteric arteries, it was found that significant differences in the vascular responses to [K+]o exist. Among the species studied, human cerebral arteries were the most sensitive artery to increasing [K+]o. LÄS MER
