1. 1. Livskvalitet och hälsa - Patienters upplevelser i samband med Abdominellt Aorta Aneurysm

   Författare :Monica Pettersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aortic aneurysm; phenomenological-hermeneutic; conservative treatments; hermeneutic; suffering; drama; surgery; quality of life; follow up; open surgery; endovascular; sexual function;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on four studies where the overall aim was to explore and describe experiences of being diagnosed with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA), and if experiences of care and treatment, affect quality of life and health. Two of the studies were qualitative, where a phenomenological hermeneutic and a hermeneutic method of interpretation and analysis were used. LÄS MER

3. 2. Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis : Postural Stability, Prognostic factors and Impact of Conservative Treatments on Radiologic, Clinical and Self-Reported Outcomes

   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Idiopathic Scoliosis; Postural stability; Spinal Appearance; Health-Related Quality of Life; Adherence; Physical Activity; Brace; Scoliosis-Specific Exercise; Prognosis; Survival Models;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional distortion of spinal curvature of unknown cause that develops during puberty. If the frontal plane curvature exceeds a Cobb angle of 24°, full-time bracing is recommended to prevent curve progression, negative health consequences or need for surgery. LÄS MER

4. 3. Intracellular free amino acids and nutritional status in children with chronic renal failure on different treatments

   Författare :Alberto Canepa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Chronic renal failure; transplantation; nutritional status; children; amino acids; plasma muscle; polymorphonuclear granulocytes; proteolysis; red blood cells;

   Sammanfattning : In untreated adult patients with chronic renal failure (CRF), and in chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and kidney-transplanted patients, typical plasma and muscle intracellular amino acid (AA) patterns have been described. Similar AA abnormalities to those seen in adult patients have been observed in plasma and muscle tissue of children with CRF, but no studies have been undertaken to evaluate the AA levels in plasma and muscle in children on CAPD or after kidney transplantation.

   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Animal by-products and manure contain valuable plant nutrients that could be recycled onto arable land, as fertiliser. If these materials contain pathogenic microorganisms, such as viruses, transmission to domestic animals, wildlife and the food chain could occur. LÄS MER

7. 5. Proximal humeral fractures : aspects of treatment with special reference to displaced fractures in the elderly

   Författare :Karol Zyto; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :proximal humeralfractures; aged patients; Neer classification; Constant score; long-term follow up; hemiarthroplasty; prospective study; osteopenia; middle- age men.;

   Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis was to study the clinical and functional outcome after various treatments of displaced fractures of the proximal humerus in an elderly patient group. Conservative treatment consisting of a short period of immobilisation and an early start of active exercises guided by physiotherapy has been compared with different surgical techniques. LÄS MER
