  1. 11. Visualizing the dynamic interplay between the host and bacterial pathogen : a real-time study of renal infection

    Författare :Lisa Månsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The human body is a complex entity capable of handling a variety of pathogenic challenges without developing disease symptoms. Sometimes, however, the pathogens are superior and the host immune system is unable to clear the infection. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Aspects on the role of prophylactic procedures to influence post-ERCP complication rates

    Författare :Greger Olsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :ERCP;

    Sammanfattning : Background: When the technique to use ERCP was introduced almost fifty years ago, the morbidity in treatment of hepato-biliary diseases decreased due to the introduction of this miniinvasive modality, reducing the need for open surgical procedures. However, ERCP procedures are still marred with complications such as pancreatitis, cholangitis, hemorrhage and perforation and every measure must be undertaken to reduce these adverse events.

  5. 14. Factors influencing the inflammatory response and secondary infection in rat pancreatitis

    Författare :Erkki Tarpila; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : A rat~model for bile-induced acute pancreatitis is used throughout the experiments. The model, which is well known, mimics the assumed events leading to biliary pancreatitis. The mortality from acute pancreatitis with this model was 23-33% and 73% of all deaths occurred within the first 24 hours. LÄS MER
