  1. 1. Cardiac arrhythmias and heart rate variability in familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy : A clinical study before and after liver transplantation

    Författare :Rolf Hörnsten; Urban Wiklund; Staffan Andersson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Clinical physiology; Klinisk fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP), found in the northernmost counties in Sweden, is a rare, lethal and inherited amyloidosis. The disease is caused by mutated transthyretin (TTR). The mutation is characterized by an exchange of valine for methionine at position 30 (ATTRVal30Met). LÄS MER

  3. 2. Mechanical Properties of Welds at Creep Activation Temperatures

    Författare :Henrik C.M. Andersson-Östling; Rolf Sandström; Kamran Nikbin; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; creep; creep crack propagation; OFHC copper; welds; nuclear waste disposal; creep modeling; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Welds in materials intended for service at temperatures above the creep activation temperature often develop damage before the base metal. The weld is a discontinuity in the material and stresses and strains often accumulate in the weld. Knowledge of the properties of the weld is essential to the safe operation of the component containing the weld. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Exhaled Breath Condensate in Obstructive Lung Diseases : A Methodological study

    Författare :Anette Davidsson; Birgitta Schmekel; Rolf Andersson; Sven‐Erik Dahlén; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are two common inflammatory airway diseases characterized by airway inflammation and mucus hypersecretion. Prediction of the outcome of these diseases may not be performed and the need for non-invasive diagnostic tools capable of identifying inflammation in asthma and COPD becomes therefore obvious.

  5. 4. Infective Endocarditis : aspects of pathophysiology, epidemiology, management and prognosis

    Författare :Christer Ekdahl; Rolf Maller; Mats Broqvist; Urban Forsum; Lennart E. Nilsson; Rune Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; epidemiology; Infective endocarditis IE ; heart valve surgery; monocytes; granulocytes; staphylococ; Epidemiology; Epidemiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Infective endocarditis (IE) is a rare but complex disease that is fatal if untreated. With a modern combination of antimicrobial therapy and heart valve surgery, mortality is still 10-20 %. The structure of the endocarditis vegetation impedes the penetration of phagocytic cells such as monocytes and granulocytes. LÄS MER

  7. 5. A Randomized Trial of Interpersonal Psychotherapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Major Depressive Disorder : Predictors of process and outcome

    Författare :Annika Ekeblad; Rolf Holmqvist; Gerhard Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Clinical trail; Interpersonal psychotherapy; Cognitive behavioral therapy; major depressive disorder; drop-outs; mentalization; reflective functioning; working alliance; Randomiserad studie; egentlig depression; Interpersonell psykoterapi; kognitiv beteendeterapi; drop-out; utfall; mentaliseringsförmåga; arbetsallians;

    Sammanfattning : Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) are both evidence-based treatments for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Several head-to-head comparisons between these methods have been made, most of them in the US. There is a need for more trials in different treatment settings. LÄS MER
