  1. 1. Lung function in relation to exercise capacity in health and disease

    Författare :Amir Farkhooy; Andrei Malinovschi; Christer Janson; Hans Hedenström; Harrpa Arnardottir; Ann Ekberg Jansson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Exercise capacity; Exercise test; Lung function; Spirometri; Diffusion capacity; COPD; Pulmonary hypertension; Clinical Physiology; Klinisk fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Exercise capacity (EC) is widely recognized as a strong and independent predictor of mortality and disease progression in various diseases, including cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. Furthermore, it is generally accepted that exercise capacity in healthy individuals and in patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases is mainly limited by the maximum cardiac output. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Aims: To describe children born with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA-IVS) in Sweden between 1980 and 1999, the incidence and outcome of PA-IVS, to examine cardio-pulmonary outcomes in survivors and to evaluate their quality of life. Material and methods: Eighty-four subjects were identified. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Surgical treatment in chronic aortic regurgitation : Timing, results, prognosis and left ventricular function

    Författare :Éva Tamás; Christian Olin; Eva Nylander; Mats Broqvist; Dan Lindblom; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aortic regurgitation; left ventricular function; exercise; physical capacity; echocardiography; Thoracic surgery; Thoraxkirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic aortic regurgitation (AR) of varying degree affects 13% of men and 8.5% of women. In persons with severe AR, the expected length of life and its quality are influenced. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Cardiopulmonary Function in Healthy Individuals and in Patients After Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

    Författare :Margareta Genberg; Andrei Malinovschi; Eva Nylander; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; echocardiography; cardiopulmonary execise testing; stress testing; onchology; childhood leukemia; healthy adults; breathing reserve; oxygen uptake; Clinical Physiology; Klinisk fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) is the gold standard of clinical exercise tests, combining conventional stress testing with measurement of oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production. In order to interpret CPET findings, adequate reference values are needed. Currently, no Swedish reference values exist. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Cardiopulmonary function, quality of life and effects of exercise in children and adolescents with Fontan circulation

    Författare :Eva Rylander Hedlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Survival of children and adolescents with Fontan circulation has increased over the last decades, and today a large majority survive to adult age. There is increasing concern regarding these children’s impaired physical performance and quality of life. LÄS MER
