  3. 2. On certain genetic and metabolic risk factors for carotid stenosis and stroke

    Författare :Pär Wanby; Lars Brudin; Martin Carlsson; Milita Crisby; Linköpings universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : The present study evaluated genetic and metabolic factors influencing the risk of acute cerebrovascular disease (CVD) and internal carotid artery stenosis (ICA stenosis) in a Swedish community. The threonine (T) containing protein of the FABP2 A54T gene polymorphism has a greater affinity for long chain fatty acids (FFAs) than the alanine (A) containing protein. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Strategies for assessing health risks from two occupational cohorts within the domain of northern Sweden

    Författare :Ove Björ; Tohr Nilsson; Håkan Jonsson; Lena Damber; Per Gustavsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cohort; mortality; incidence; risk; rate; cancer; cerebrovascular diseases; exposure; occupational; mining; industry; worker; Poisson regression; Cox regression; SMR; causal inference; G-estimation; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; arbets- och miljömedicin; epidemiologi; Epidemiology;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Studies based on a cohort design requires access to both subject-specific and period-specific information. In order to conduct an occupational cohort study, access to exposure information and the possibility and permission to link information on outcomes from other registers are generally necessary.

  5. 4. Registry-based studies of return to work after stroke - part of the work after stroke study (WASS)

    Författare :Emma Westerlind; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Stroke; Return to work; Working age; Rehabilitation; Cerebrovascular diseases; Ischemic stroke; Intracerebral haemorrhage; Registries;

    Sammanfattning : Objectives. Stroke is one of the most common diseases and a main cause of disability both globally and in Sweden. Even though the risk increases with older age, stroke in the younger population is increasing and a substantial part of those who suffer from stroke are at working age. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Studies on cytokines and chemokines in cerebrovascular diseases and experimental cerebral ischemia

    Författare :Nikolaos Kostulas; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Ischemic brain injury secondary to arterial occlusion, a major cause of stroke, is characterized by acute local inflammation, which involves the accumulation of polymorphonuclear neutrophils and other immune cells. Tissue damage resulting from ischemic stroke can be reduced in experimental animal models by blocking leukocyte accumulation. LÄS MER
