16. On the metabolic consequenses of abdominal compartment syndrome
Sammanfattning : Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and the progression to abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) are known complications of vascular and abdominal surgery, trauma, sepsis, and burns. ACS is associated with high mortality. LÄS MER
17. Early detection of major surgical postoperative complications evaluated by microdialysis
Sammanfattning : Major abdominal surgery may be followed by postoperative complications, especially in the elderly and patients with co morbidities as diabetes mellitus and obesity. Some of the most feared complications as anastomotic leakage, abdominal infections, abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) and intestinal ischemia can lead to sepsis, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) with high morbidity and mortality.

18. In vivo imaging of leukocyte-endothelium interactions in septic lung injury
Sammanfattning : Excessive accumulation of leukocytes in the lung represents a key feature in the development of an acute lung injury (ALI). Numerous studies demonstrated that leukocyte rolling is a compulsory precondition for the firm adhesion in organs. However, it seems that the recruitment process of leukocytes in the lung is more complex. LÄS MER
19. Aspects of fluid therapy in the critically ill. Experimental and clinical studies on fluid therapy in the inflammatory conditions
Sammanfattning : Patients suffering from inflammatory conditions often present with severe hypovolemia due to vasodilatation and increased vascular permeability. Early administration of fluids is, therefore, a cornerstone and lifesaving therapy.However, a vigorous and aggressive fluid therapy increases tissue edema, worsen tissue perfusion and organ function.

20. Glutathione during stress in man
Sammanfattning : Glutathione, a tripeptide (gamma-glutamyl, -cysteinyl, -glycine), is quantitatively the most important antioxidant in man, protecting cells from the toxic effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These highly reactive molecules cause tissue damage and are produced at high rates during critical illness including sepsis [1-4]. LÄS MER
