16. Cell death in atherosclerosis
Sammanfattning : Rupture of atherosclerotic lesions is recognized as the major cause of acute cerebrovascular and coronary syndromes. The characteristics of the typical vulnerable plaque include increased inflammatory cells at the shoulder region, a large lipid core, a thin fibrous cap with few collagen fibers and smooth muscle cells.

17. Adiponectin in atherosclerosis
Sammanfattning : Adiponectin is a protein secreted from adipocytes, circulating at high levels in plasma (3 30μg/mL), and in overweight subjects it is down regulated. Adiponectin inhibits the development of atherosclerosis in experimental animal models but whether adiponectin is anti atherogenic in humans is not known. LÄS MER
18. Identification of inflammatory genes involved in the pathogenesis of human and experimental atherosclerosis
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is a chronic systemic inflammatory disease of large and medium sized arteries, developing slowly and silently over decades. The disease is usually not apparent until occurrence of a sudden clinical symptom, such as myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke. LÄS MER
19. Sex differences in atherosclerosis and exercise effects

Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the blood vessel wall, which over time will cause thickening and hardening of the vessel wall. LÄS MER
20. Thrombolysis in vascular surgery
Sammanfattning : Background and aims: Thrombolysis is in common use in the treatment of acute forms of vascular disease. It may be used both systemically and locally, in the latter case through an endovascular approach, socalled catheter-directed thrombolysis. LÄS MER
