  1. 1. Dual-energy imaging in stroke : feasibility of dual-layer detector cone-beam computed tomography

    Författare :Fredrik Ståhl; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) is increasingly available and used in the standard diagnostic setting of ischemic stroke patients. For stroke patients with suspected large vessel occlusion, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in the interventional suite could be an alternative to CT to shorten door to thrombectomy time.

  3. 2. Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease : Aspects on Diagnosis and Long-term Prognosis

    Författare :Patrik Nasr; Stergios Kechagias; Mattias Ekstedt; Peter Lundberg; Einar Stefán Björnsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease affecting approximately 25% of the global population and is commonly recognized as the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome. The histological spectrum of NAFLD ranges from isolated steatosis to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), with risk of developing fibrosis and subsequent cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

  4. 3. Real-time analysis of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis : new rheological and optical sensing techniques for diagnosis of haemostatic disorders

    Författare :Kenny Hansson; Frank Brosstad; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The haemostatic system has a dual paradoxical function in the body. It should arrest bleeding whenever needed, but also keep the blood flowing in the circulatory system without any obstructing blood clots. The system is complex with maoy intertwined processes that interact to produce a fine-tuned regulation of the performance. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Molecular Diagnosis of Common Viral Infectious Diseases Based on Real-Time PCR

    Författare :Nahla Mohamed; Jonas Blomberg; Jan Fohlman; Elgh Fredrik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Molecular biology; Microbiology; Virology; rTth DNA polymerase; UNG; QPCR; RNA virus; broadly targeted PCR; Molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Molecular biology has become an integral part of the diagnosis of infectious diseases. Recently, quantitative real-time PCR (QPCR) methods (often in the form of so-called TaqMan® systems) have been developed for the diagnosis of a wide range of infectious diseases; these techniques found valuable clinical application in the diagnosis and evaluation of progress and therapeutic success of viral diseases.

  7. 5. Tuberculosis and HIV interaction in Ethiopian children : aspects on epidemiology, diagnosis and clinical management

    Författare :Ingela Berggren Palme; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Tuberculosis; HIV; Ethiopia; Child; Epidemiology; Risk factor; Mycobacterium tuberculosis; Drug resistance; Molecular epidemiology; BCG; Nutrition; Treatment; Cure rate;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the influence of HIV on childhood tuberculosis (TB) in a high TB and HIV endemic setting. It is based on four studies involving the same study population of 522 tuberculous children and their 25 3 non-tuberculous controls, consecutively enrolled as out- and inpatients at the major paediatric hospital in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
