  1. 1. Stress-induced cardiomyopathy - clinical and experimental studies

    Författare :Jonatan Oras; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Stress-induced cardiomyopathy; Subarachnoid hemorrhage; tako-tsubo; isoflurane; outcome; cerebral infarction; hsTnT; NTproBNP; proteomics; bioinformatics;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Stress-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) is an acute cardiac condition with akinesia in the left ventricle (LV) that can be severe. A stress-trigger, physical or emotional, is usually identified preceding onset of symptoms and catecholamine overstimulation is involved in the pathogenesis of SIC. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Pregnancy in women with congenital heart disease

    Författare :Eva Furenäs; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; congenital heart disease; pregnancy; risk classification; parity; heart biomarker; NTproBNP; hs-cTNT;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract Background: The survival for children born with congenital heart disease (CHD) has increased and the majority reach adult age. Having a cardiac problem raise questions on the probability of successful pregnancies and predictors associated with unfavorable outcome. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Heart failure in elderly with focus on diagnosis and prognosis

    Författare :Mona Olofsson; Kurt Boman; Jan-Håkan Jansson; Tomas Jernberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; elderly; chronic heart failure; primary health care; natriuretic peptides; prognosis; mortality; hospitalisation;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Patients older than 75 years with heart failure (HF) are at increased risk for mortality and hospital admissions. Echocardiography and brain natriuretic peptides (BNP, NTproBNP) are important diagnostic tools but sparsely evaluated in elderly PHC patients. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Biomarkers for eligibility and surrogate endpoints in heart failure trials

    Författare :Gianluigi Savarese; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: In heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), randomized controlled trials have provided effective treatments, but prognosis still remains poor. HF with mid-range EF (HFmrEF) has no evidencebased therapy and represents a newly characterized and relevant population for future trials. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Cardiac biomarkers in cats : associations with feline characteristics and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

    Författare :Sofia Hanås; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiac biomarkers may be used to support diagnosis of diseases such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a common cardiac disease in cats. However, the impact of feline characteristics on these biomarkers is relatively unexplored. LÄS MER
