  1. 6. 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

    Sammanfattning : Two different principles were studied. 1st - statistical analysis techniques were used to obtain medical results from a patient population. 2nd - the patient population was used to study the statistical analysis techniques. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Self-monitoring av intraocular pressure and its clinical application

    Författare :Laurence Quérat; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: Measuring the intraocular pressure (IOP) is one of the most common ophthalmologic examinations, especially within glaucoma management. An elevated IOP is a major risk factor for the development and progression of glaucoma, and is so far the only modifiable parameter. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Laser treatment in glaucoma : efficacy and safety

    Författare :Erika Rasmuson; Gauti Jóhannesson; Christina Linden; Björn Lundberg; Mika Harju; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glaucoma; laser treatment; intraocular pressure; glaucoma treatment; glaukom; laserbehandling; ögontryck; glaukombehandling; oftalmiatrik; ophthalmology; oftalmiatrik; ophthalmology;

    Sammanfattning : Glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy and the major cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Although the pathogenesis of glaucoma is not completely understood, the most important risk factor for development and progression of the disease is an elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). LÄS MER

  7. 10. Aspects on prostanoid and cholinergic effects on aqueous humour dynamics in human eyes

    Författare :Christina Lindén; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aqueous flow; blood-aqueous barrier; flare; human; intraocular pressure IOP ; latanoprost; physostigmine; prostaglandins; uveoscleral flow;

    Sammanfattning : The discovery of the ocular hypotensive effect of topically applied prostaglandins (PGs) has raised a number of questions about the mechanisms of action involved. The aim of the present thesis was to answer some of these questions. LÄS MER
