1. Lung function in relation to exercise capacity in health and disease
Sammanfattning : Background: Exercise capacity (EC) is widely recognized as a strong and independent predictor of mortality and disease progression in various diseases, including cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. Furthermore, it is generally accepted that exercise capacity in healthy individuals and in patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases is mainly limited by the maximum cardiac output. LÄS MER
2. Cross-modal Imaging in Lung Research: From µCT dosimetry to synchrotron phase contrast microtomography biomechanical insights in preclinical lung injury models
Sammanfattning : Lung diseases continue to present a large burden to public health, especially in industrialized countries. For abetter understanding of the underlying patho-mechanisms in lung related diseases as well as for testing theefficacy of novel therapies, preclinical studies in animal models are indispensable.

4. Function and morbidity of the esophagus and respiratory system in the growing child with esophageal atresia
Sammanfattning : Background: Esophageal atresia (EA) is a congenital malformation that consists of various degrees of discontinuity of the esophagus and affects about 1:3000 live births. EA is usually corrected at birth with survival rates over 90%, which has shifted the focus towards improvement of associated morbidity and health-related quality of life. LÄS MER
5. Mast cells and their progenitors in respiratory diseases : Understanding their connection to lung function and airway inflammation
Sammanfattning : Mast cells are rare immune cells involved in allergic diseases, including asthma. These cells are derived from mast cell progenitors (MCps) that migrate to the peripheral tissues via the blood in response to allergic or non-allergic stimuli. LÄS MER
