  1. 26. The role of nitric oxide in porcine models of asthma and acute lung injury

    Författare :Roelinde Middelveld; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Nitric oxide (NO) is a modulator of many important physiological processes in the body. It is produced endogenously in several cell types by a family of NO synthases (NOS). LÄS MER

  3. 27. On obesity in acute pancreatitis

    Författare :Ralf Segersvärd; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Acute pancreatitis; animal; cytokines; dietary fats; fatty liver; endotoxin; hypertriglyceridemia; interleukines; lipopolysaccharides; liver diseases; mice; mortality; obesity; oxidative stress; pancreas; survival; tumor necrosis factor; rats; UCP2; uncoupling proteins.;

    Sammanfattning : Over-nutrition is one of today s most visible public health problems. Currently over 40% of the Swedish population is either overweight or obese. Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an acute inflammatory process of the pancreas with variable involvement of regional tissues and/or remote organ systems. LÄS MER

  4. 28. Acute lung failure induced by tricyclic antidepressants : an experimental evaluation

    Författare :Karin Svens; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :ARDS; tricyclic antidepressants; isolated lungs; rat; endothelin; endothelial cells; tight junctions;

    Sammanfattning : The tricyclic antidepressant drugs (TCA) have, over the years, been reported to be able to cause adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)/acute lung injury in connection with overdose, and are currently among the most common cause of self-poisoning. Approximately 10% of all TCA overdose patients develop ARDS, and the treatment of these patients, irrespective of the event causing ARDS, is mainly supportive. LÄS MER

  5. 29. Recruitment of small size lungs - experimental studies

    Författare :Angela Hanson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; lung recruitment; PEEP titration; VTCO2; Cdyn; computed tomography; cardiac output; atelectasis; lung aeration; driving pressure;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Patients - both children and adults - undergoing anesthesia and mechanical ventilation rapidly develop atelectasis. Even more severe problems occur in patients with acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome. LÄS MER

  7. 30. Nitric oxide in experimental sepsis

    Författare :Peter Dahm; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intensive care; Nitric oxide; Sepsis; NO inhalation; Endotoxin; Acute lung injury; ARDS; Nitric oxide synthase; L-NMMA; L-NAME; Anestesiologi; Anaesthesiology; Pigs; intensivvård;

    Sammanfattning : Nitric oxide (NO) is important in the control of blood pressure and organ perfusion. In septic shock, NO produced by inducible NO-synthase (NOS) has been claimed to mediate pathological vasodilation and cell injury, while NO produced by constitutive NOS may be protective in counteracting hypoperfusion and organ injury.
