1. 6. Cardiac complications in celiac disease

   Författare :Louise Emilsson; Jonas Ludvigsson; Roland Carlsson; Daniel Leffler; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; atrial fibrillation; autoimmune; celiac disease; cohort; dilated cardiomyopathy; inflammation; myocardial infarction; registry; Cardiology; Kardiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated enteropathy induced by dietary gluten that affects about 1% of western populations. CD has been associated to an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality in some studies; however associations to cardiovascular diseases have not been broadly researched. LÄS MER

3. 7. Assessment of myocardial viability using magnetic resonance imaging

   Författare :Robert Jablonowski; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Magnetic resonance imaging; myocardial infarction; hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; fibrosis; viability;

   Sammanfattning : Myocardial infarction (MI) following an acute coronary occlusion is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. During revascularization, microemboli may complicate treatment and affect cardiac function. The long-term effects of microembolization are not fully elucidated. LÄS MER

4. 8. Mortality and co-morbidity among patients with hemochromatosis and their first-degree relatives

   Författare :Maria Elmberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Genetic Hemochromatosis; cohort study; health- and census registers; mortality; morbidity; cancer; ischemic heart disese; arthropathy; joint replacement surgery;

   Sammanfattning : Genetic hemochromatosis (GH) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a C282Y mutation in the HFEgene, and is characterized by excess iron accumulation in multiple organs. Classical manifestations of GH include liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, diabetes mellitus, cardiomyopathy, and arthritis. LÄS MER

5. 9. Passive volume reduction heart surgery using the Acorn CorCap cardiac support device

   Författare :Fredrik Bredin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Acorn CorCap cardiac support device; acute myocardial infarction; aortic regurgitation; dilated cardiomyopathy; heart failure; heart failure surgery; passive containment surgery; ventricular remodelling;

   Sammanfattning : Heart failure is a growing health problem, affecting an increasing number of patients with rapidly increasing costs for the health care system. In spite of recent improvements in pharmacological, non-pharmacological and surgical treatments the prognosis for patients with severe heart failure is still poor. LÄS MER

7. 10. PET in Heart Failure - Methods and Applications

   Författare :Jens Sörensen; Göran Hedenstierna; Elisabeth Ståhle; Bengt Långström; Juhani Knuuti; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; congestive heart failure; myocardial ischemia; positron emission tomography; left ventricular dysfunction; tracer kinetic models; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin;

   Sammanfattning : Positron Emission Tomography (PET) permits regional myocardial perfusion, fibrosis and oxidative metabolism to be non-invasively quantified with radioactive tracers such as [15O]-water and [1-11C]-acetate. PET is an established research tool in congestive heart failure (CHF), a major cause of morbidity and mortality. LÄS MER
