1. 1. Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus : Cerebrospinal Fluid Tap Test and Magnetic Resonance Imaging as Preoperative Prognostic Investigations

   Författare :Johan Virhammar; Elna-Marie Larsson; Katarina Laurell; Kristina Giuliana Cesarini; Magnus Tisell; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; normal pressure hydrocephalus; NPH; cerebrospinal fluid disorders; dementia; MRI; CSF tap test; CBF; ASL; Neurology; Neurologi; Neurosurgery; Neurokirurgi; Radiologi; Radiology;

   Sammanfattning : Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a condition with dilated cerebral ventricles but intracranial pressure within normal limits. The symptoms of gait impairment, cognitive decline and urinary incontinence develop gradually. Treatment with shunt insertion results in improvement in eight out of ten patients. LÄS MER

3. 2. Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus : Aspects on Pathophysiology, Clinical Characteristics and Evaluation Methods

   Författare :Fredrik Lundin; Göran Leijon; Carsten Wikkelsø; Bertil Romner; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Introduction. Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a condition with enlargement of the cerebral ventricular system and an intracranial pressure (ICP) within normal limits. LÄS MER

4. 3. Improved computerized perimetric threshold strategies

   Författare :Boel Bengtsson; Oftalmologi (Malmö); []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; probability maps; normal limits; test time; clinical testing; test strategies. glaucoma; test algorithms; false positive answers; Visual field testing; computerized perimetry; Ophtalmology; Oftalmologi;

   Sammanfattning : Perimetric threshold examination is the most important method for diagnosing and monitoring patients with glaucoma. Such examination, however, is time-consuming and often difficult for the elderly patients in whom glaucoma is prevalent. Shorter test strategies have been proposed, but unfortunately also with lower test quality. LÄS MER

5. 4. The neuropsychology of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

   Författare :Per Hellström; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus; Neuropsychology; Prospective study; Shunt treatment; Treatment outcome; iNPH scale;

   Sammanfattning : Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is characterised by an active distension of the cerebral ventricles due to inadequate absorption of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) into the systemic circulation. The intracranial pressure is within normal limits, the passages between the ventricles and subarachnoid spaces are open, and there is an absence of identifiable antecedents known to reduce CSF absorption.

7. 5. Description and prediction of clinical radiosensitivity : emphasis on normal tissue reactions

   Författare :Roger Tell; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Radiotherapy; radiosensitivity; normal tissue; thyroid; cell cycle; lung injury;

   Sammanfattning : There is a range in the severity of normal tissue reactions observed when cancer patients receive radiotherapy (RT). The limits of dosage in RT have empirically been set by doses that have caused severe reactions in the most sensitive patients. The understanding of factors governing variations of radiosensitivity is therefore very important in RT. LÄS MER
