  1. 21. Heart Valve Surgery : Preoperative Assessment and Clinical Outcome

    Författare :Laila Hellgren; Elisabeth Ståhle; Mårten Rosenquist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Heart valve surgery; magentic resonance imaging; echocardiography; operative mortality; survival; complications; quality of life; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : A more global analysis of the outcome of heart valve surgery is desirable to reflect the actual benefit for the patient. This thesis focuses on the preoperative assessment of the patient, and the outcome after surgery with regard to operative mortality, long-term survival, valve-related complications, and quality of life.

  3. 22. A targeted approach to maintenance of tumour response. Clinical and translational studies in metastatic colorectal cancer

    Författare :Helga Hagman; Tumörmikromiljö; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; kolorektal cancer; underhållsbehandling; biomarkörer; angiogeneshämning;

    Sammanfattning : In metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) chemotherapy +/- targeted therapy with palliative intent aims at prolonging survival with sustained quality of life. Maintenance of tumour response by a period of less intense treatment maydelay progression and accumulation of unacceptable toxicity. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Altered vascular responses in experimental congestive heart failure

    Författare :Anders Bergdahl; Lund Medicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiovascular system; Kardiovaskulära systemet;

    Sammanfattning : Congestive heart failure is accompanied with increased circulatory levels of several vasoregulatory neurotransmitters and hormones which affect the outcome of this disease. In this thesis the blood levels of several vasoactive peptides in humans with congestive heart failure and their effects on the vasculature by the use of an animal model of heart failure were studied.

  5. 24. Heart failure : advanced treatments and novel hormonal responses

    Författare :Stanislava Zabarovskaja; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Heart failure (HF) affects 2-3% of the Western population and is associated with a 1 year mortality of 20%. Despite therapeutic advances over the last decades, numerous unanswered questions remain regarding the impact of currently established therapies as well as potential new targets for therapy. Aims to investigate: 1. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Identification of pathophysiological and prognostic biomarkers in different types of myocardial infarction

    Författare :Marcus Hjort; Bertil Lindahl; Kai M. Eggers; Helge Rørvik Røsjø; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; myocardial infarction; biomarker; pathophysiology; prognosis; MINOCA; STEMI; NSTEMI; hjärtinfarkt; biomarkör; patofysiologi; prognos; MINOCA; STEMI; NSTEMI; Cardiology; Kardiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The pathophysiological mechanisms of myocardial infarction (MI) with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) are largely unknown. Analogous, differences in pathobiology between ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) are incompletely understood. LÄS MER
