1. Mitochondrial function in sepsis - Temporal evolvement of respiratory capacity in human blood cells
Sammanfattning : Sepsis is a devastating disease that is caused by the host’s response to an overwhelming infectious process. As sepsis progresses, organs distant from the site of infection become affected and sepsis-induced multiple organ failure ensues. LÄS MER
2. Oxygen delivery and mitochondrial dysfunction as assessed by microdialysis during interventions in experimental sepsis
Sammanfattning : Early administration of broad-spectrum antibiotics is the first goal in sepsis treatment. Besides from bacteriostatic/bactericidal effects, some antibiotics may also modify the host´s response to infection. The novel antibiotic tigecycline may exert such properties; however, this property has not been evaluated in large-animal trials. LÄS MER
3. Organ dysfunction among patients with major burns
Sammanfattning : The number of patients who are admitted for in-hospital care in Sweden because of burns is about 12/100,000, and only a small proportion of these have larger burns. Among them, and particularly among those who die in hospital, a condition referred to as “organ dysfunction” is common and an important factor in morbidity and mortality. LÄS MER
4. The liver in sepsis : a study of liver circulation and some aspects of liver function in experimental peritonitis and in patients with multiple system organ failure
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
5. Epidemiological studies on comorbidity, heritability and co-aggregation in organ-specific autoimmune diseases
Sammanfattning : Autoimmunity is caused by loss of tolerance, whereby the immune system fails to distinguish self from non-self. The autoimmune panorama entails more than 100 diseases that collectively affect close to 5% of the total population, with a higher prevalence in women than in men. LÄS MER
