  1. 11. Chlamydophila pneumoniae in Cardiovascular Diseases : Clinical and Experimental Studies

    Författare :Marie Edvinsson; Göran Friman; Eva Hjelm; Nils-Gunnar Ilbäck; Christina Nyström-Rosander; Stefan Thelin; Björn Berdal; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Communicable diseases; Chlamydophila pneumoniae; Chlamydia pneumoniae; trace elements; atherosclerosis; aortic valve stenosis; thoracic aortic aneurysm; aortic dissection; hepcidin; iron; Infektionssjukdomar;

    Sammanfattning : Chlamydophila pneumoniae (C. pneumoniae) has been suggested as a stimulator of chronic inflammation in atherosclerosis. C. pneumoniae DNA was demonstrated in aortic biopsies in 50% of patients with stable angina pectoris or acute coronary syndrome undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Chlamydia pneumoniae in Aortic Valve Sclerosis and Thoracic Aortic Disease : Aspects of Pathogenesis and Therapy

    Författare :Christina Nyström-Rosander; Kenneth Persson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Communicable diseases; Chlamydia pneumoniae; aortic valve sclerosis; trace elements; thoracic aorta; antibiotics; Polymerase Chain Reaction PCR ; electron microscopy EM ; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious diseases; Infektionssjukdomar; infektionssjukdomar; Infectious Diseases;

    Sammanfattning : The obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia pneumoniae (Cp), a common human pathogen, has been associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The aetiology of non-rheumatic aortic valve sclerosis has, however, not been clarified. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Medin Amyloid in Human Arteries and its Association with Arterial Diseases

    Författare :Siwei Peng; Per Wstermark; Gunnar Husby; Uppsala universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Amyloid is a form of abnormal protein aggregation within the living body. Massive deposits can lead to organ failure. There is also increasing evidence that smaller pre-amyloid aggregates exert direct toxic effects to cells. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection for non-seminomatous germ cell tumour

    Författare :Axel Gerdtsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The Swedish and Norwegian Testicular Cancer Group (SWENOTECA) is a multidisciplinary collaboration with an aim to improve the testicular cancer care for patients in Sweden and Norway by publishing guidelines, include patients in the SWENOTECA register and promote research. In 2007, SWENOTECA initiated RETROP, a multicenter study on nonseminomatous germ cell tumour (NSGCT) patients that are operated with post-chemotherapy retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (PC-RPLND).

  5. 15. Management of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms and dissections : with emphasis on spinal cord protection in aneurysm repair and non-surgical treatment of type-B dissection

    Författare :Anders Winnerkvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Aortic cross-clamping; cerebrospinal fluid drainage; GFAp; NFL; retrograde venous spinal cord perfusion; somatosensory evoked potentials; S100B; thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm; type B aortic dissection.;

    Sammanfattning : Thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysms and dissections are two very serious disease processes which entail a high risk of vessel rupture and death. Their specific treatment strategies have several similarities which have formed a base for this thesis. LÄS MER
