1. 1. Central venous catheterisation - clinical studies on mechanical complications in the ultrasound-guided era

   Författare :Maria Adrian; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; central venous catheterisation; ultrasound; mechanical complication; subclavian vein; Internal jugular vein; femoral vein; guidewire;

   Sammanfattning : Central venous catheterisation is one of the most common invasive procedures performed on patients in secondary care. Unfortunately the catheterisation procedure is associated with mechanical complications that both can be life-threatening and may force postponement of life-saving treatments such as surgery and chemotherapy.

3. 2. Fluid dynamic principles for analysis of intracranial pressure control : application towards space medicine and hydrocephalus

   Författare :Petter Holmlund; Anders Eklund; Sara Qvarlander; Jan Malm; Marek Czosnyka; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Intracranial pressure; posture; cerebrospinal fluid; microgravity; venous collapse; internal jugular vein; fluid dynamics; venous pressure; spaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome; hydrocephalus; mathematical modeling; ultrasound; magnetic resonance imaging;

   Sammanfattning : Intracranial pressure (ICP) is an important component of the fluid dynamic environment of the brain and plays a central role with regards to the maintenance of normal cerebral blood flow and neuronal function. However, many regulatory mechanisms controlling the ICP are still poorly understood. LÄS MER

4. 3. Venous thrombosis in children : the roles of vascular access and critical illness

   Författare :Åsa Östlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Venous thromboembolism (VT) is a rare event in the general pediatric population. However, the incidence in hospitalized children is higher and has increased dramatically reaching 58 per 10 000 children. The single most important risk factor for pediatric VT is the presence of a central venous catheter. LÄS MER

5. 4. Cholesterol homeostasis in the brain : importance of 24S-hydroxylation

   Författare :Dieter Lütjohann; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Brain cholesterol is characterized by a very low turnover with very little exchange with lipoproteins in the circulation. We have investigated whether side chain-hydroxylated cholesterol species are important for elimination of cholesterol from the brain. About 80% of 24S-hydroxycholesterol (24S-OH-Chol) present in the body is present in the brain. LÄS MER

7. 5. Fusobacterium necrophorum - from tonsillar carriage to Lemierre’s syndrome

   Författare :David Nygren; Infektionsmedicin; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Fusobacterium necrophorum is the main causative agent of Lemierre’s syndrome, where the bacteria, following a benign initial oropharyngeal infection, cause septic thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein with subsequent pulmonary embolisation. Despite that data are lacking to suggest so, F. LÄS MER
