11. Blood pressure in acute ischaemic stroke : blood pressure and stress in the acute phase of stroke and influence of initial blood pressure on stroke-outcome
Sammanfattning : Background and objectives: Most patients (70-80%) with acute ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke exhibit a high systemic blood pressure (BP) on admission to hospital even in the absence of a history of hypertension (=50%). In matched-control patients admitted to hospital for other acute diseases the proportion of high BP is only 36%. LÄS MER
12. Cerebral oedema after reperfusion therapy in patients with ischaemic stroke : predictors, outcomes and treatment
Sammanfattning : Introduction: Reperfusion therapy by intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and/or endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) are established treatments in ischaemic stroke. Cerebral oedema (COED), caused by dysfunction the blood brain barrier (BBB), is common early after acute ischaemic stroke (AIS), can aggravate the symptoms and worsen the prognosis. LÄS MER
13. Molecular and clinical markers in ischaemic cerebrovascular disease
Sammanfattning : Ischaemic stroke and TIA, together labelled as Ischaemic Cerebrovascular Disease (ICVD), is a heterogeneous, complex disorder with great impact on morbidity and mortality worldwide. Genetic predisposition and environmental factors interact and confer susceptibility to different pathologies that are associated with increased ICVD risk. LÄS MER
14. Stroke severity and outcome : in search of predictors using a population-based strategy
Sammanfattning : This thesis, based on studies conducted in Örebro, the main municipality of Örebro County in Sweden, sought: 1) to determine the incidence rate and case fatality of first-ever stroke in a well-defined population; 2) to show the effects of selection bias on the frequency of different stroke characteristics; 3) to establish the incidence of neglect and anosognosia and their impact on disability; 4) to show the impact of pre-stroke risk factors on stroke severity and case fatality; and 5) to show the influence of stroke severity and other risk factor on one year mortality, on dependency after one year and on the risk of recurrent stroke. All first-ever cases of stroke were registered during a 12-month period 1999-2000. LÄS MER
15. Optimizing prehospital acute stroke care in the presence of economic constraints
Sammanfattning : Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has become standard of care for acute anterior circulation ischaemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion since the launch of second-generation stent retrievers for clinical use nearly a decade ago. Up until recently, the treatment was exclusively performed at university hospitals in Sweden. LÄS MER
