    Sammanfattning : Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) is a dementia treatable by insertion of a cerebrospinal fluid shunt. It has been suggested that INPH has similar pathophysiological mechanisms as cerebrovascular disease, but the vascular risk factor (VRF) profile of INPH patients has not been assessed using a modern epidemiological approach.

    Sammanfattning : All over the world morbidity and mortality rates are unevenly distributed in the populations. From official statistics it has been shown that farmers are more healthy and live longer than the rest of the occupationally active population. It has been shown that this is not due to a healthy workereffect, at least not in Sweden. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Magnetic resonance imaging and diffusion tensor imaging after brachial plexus injury and repair : Experimental and clinical study

    Författare :Grainne Bourke; Mikael Wiberg; Lev N. Novikov; Lars Dahlin; Umeå universitet; []
