1. 21. Heart failure in primary care with special emphasis on costs and benefits of a disease management programme

   Författare :Björn Agvall; Urban Alehagen; Ulf Dahlström; Mats Foldevi; Lars Weinehall; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Background and aim. Heart failure (HF) is a common condition associated with poor quality of life (QoL), high morbidity and mortality and is frequently occurring in primary health care (PHC). It involves a substantial economic burden on the health care expenditure. LÄS MER

3. 22. Population-based analyses of incidence, prognostic determinants and outcome of aortic dissection

   Författare :Christian Smedberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Aortic dissection (AD) is a potentially life-threatening disease caused by a tear in the innermost layer of the aortic wall, the intima, resulting in blood flow between the layers of the aortic vessel wall. Main risk factors are hypertension, male sex and smoking. LÄS MER

4. 23. 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

5. 24. Nitrates and Left Ventricular Dysfunction

   Sammanfattning : Use of beta-blockers and inhibitors of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) is established practice in the treatment of chronic heart failure (CHF). Clinical studies also suggest beneficial long-term effects of nitrates in CHF. LÄS MER

7. 25. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists in heart failure : exploring the gap between guideline-directed medical therapy and real-world practice

   Författare :Anna Jonsson Holmdahl; Krister Lindmark; Helena Norberg; Ellinor Bergdahl; Fredrik Valham; Niklas Bergh; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Heart failure; Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists; estimated glomerular filtration rate; hyperkalemia; impaired renal function; worsening renal function; guideline-directed medical therapy; kardiologi; Cardiology;

   Sammanfattning : Heart failure is the possible end-result of a variety of different diseases, where ischemic heart disease and hypertension are the most common causes in high income countries. In Sweden, heart failure has a prevalence of 2% in the adult population and rises to over 10% among people over 70 years of age. The 5-year all-cause mortality is about 50%. LÄS MER
