1. 1. Long-term follow-up of pseudoexfoliation, intraocular pressure and glaucoma : epidemiological studies in northern Sweden

   Författare :Siv Åström; Christina Lindén; Hans Stenlund; Bertil Lindblom; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pseudoexfoliation; glaucoma; intraocular pressure; age cohort; screening; long-term follow-up;

   Sammanfattning : Purpose An age-cohort was studied with long-term follow-up. The population was born in 1915, living in the municipality of Skellefteå in 1981. The purpose was to investigate the prevalence and incidence of pseudoexfoliation (PEX), its influence on intraocular pressure (IOP) and development of open-angle glaucoma (OAG). 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. 3. 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

5. 4. 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

7. 5. Studies on the Epidemiology of Open-angle Glaucoma

   Författare :Curt Ekström; Albert Alm; Bertil Lindblom; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Ophtalmology; Open-angle glaucoma; Epidemiology; Capsular glaucoma; Chronic simple glaucoma; Normal tension glaucoma; Pseudoexfoliation; Pseudoexfoliation glaucoma; Prevalence; Incidence; Intraocular pressure; Oftalmiatrik;

   Sammanfattning : Glaucoma is a common disease in the elderly population. Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is the predominant form of glaucoma. Chronic simple glaucoma and capsular glaucoma, characterized by the occurrence of pseudoexfoliation in the anterior eye segment, are the most frequent types of OAG. LÄS MER
