1. 1. Obstructive sleep apnea and cardiovascular morbidity

   Författare :Yüksel Peker; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Obstructive sleep apnea; cardiovascular; hypertension; coronary artery disease; hospitalization; cost utility; morbidity; mortality; secondary prevention; angiotensin II; CPAP;

   Sammanfattning : Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects 24 % of middle-aged men and 9 % of women in USA but the treatment criterion, daytime sleepiness is reported by 17 and 22 % of these subjects, respectively. Some previous studies have suggested an association between OSA and cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the conclusions have been conflicting due to co-existing traditionally recognized risk factors.

3. 2. Minimizing Risks and Morbidity in Live Kidney Donors

   Författare :Ali-Reza Biglarnia; Jonas Wadström; Gunnar Tufveson; Tomas Lorant; Ingela Fehrman-Ekholm; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; live donors; morbidity; GFR; donor nephrectomy; postoperative pain treatment; venous thromboembolism; HARS; Transplantation surgery; Transplantationskirurgi; Medicin; Medicine;

   Sammanfattning : Live kidney donors are healthy volunteers who are exposed to major surgical procedure and physical harms with no direct therapeutic benefits. Efforts to minimize their risks and morbidity are therefore of utmost importance. LÄS MER

4. 3. Craniopharyngioma. Morbidity and Structural Changes in the Brain

   Författare :Sigríður Bára Fjalldal; Lund Medicin; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; craniopharyngioma; hypothalamus; hypothalamic obesity; metabolism; cognition; magnetic resonance imaging; diffusion tensor imaging; white matter lesions; morbidity; cardiovascular risk; craniofaryngiom; hypotalamus; hypotalamisk fetma; ämnesomsättning; kognition; magnetkameraundersökning; vitsubstansförändringar; dödlighet; hjärt-kärlsjukdomar;

   Sammanfattning : Hypothalamus (HT) is a brain structure which serves as a coordination center for several vital body functions. Craniopharyngioma (CP) is a pituitary tumor with high morbidity, primarily due to HT lesion. LÄS MER

5. 4. Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality among Swedish farmers and non-farmers : A population-based study

   Författare :Eva-Lena Stiernström; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Farmer; morbidity; mortality; cardiovascular; lifestyle; sense of coherence. psychosocial; epidemiology; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicine; medicin;

   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

7. 5. Perioperative Myocardial Damage and Morbidity after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

   Författare :Johnny Steuer; Elisabeth Ståhle; Bertil Lindahl; Gunnar Engström; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; coronary surgery; creatine kinase; magnetic resonance imaging; morbidity; mortality; perioperative myocardial infarction; troponin; women; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi;

   Sammanfattning : The aims of this project were to investigate the impact of perioperative myocardial damage on morbidity and mortality after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), to determine whether biochemical marker levels after CABG correlate to perioperative myocardial infarct size, and to assess the long-term morbidity after CABG, in particular to determine whether women do worse.The studies were conducted in patients who had undergone isolated, primary CABG.
