  1. 26. Outcome and risk factors after aortic valve interventions

    Författare :Per Kvidal; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; aortic valve replacement; mechanical valve prosthesis; relative survival; morbidity; recurrent events; balloon aortic valvuloplasty; long-term follow-up; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; kardiologi; Cardiology;

    Sammanfattning : In the present study the long-term survival and morbidity and the associated risk factors after aortic valve replacement (AVR) and after aortic balloon valvuloplasty were evaluated. In a cohort of 2,359 consecutive patients undergoing primary aortic valve replacement, the early mortality was 5.6%. LÄS MER

  3. 27. Hemocompatibility of materials for use in prosthetic heart valves

    Författare :Yanqi Yang; Eric G. Butchart; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Heart valve prosthesis; mechanical heart valves; bioprosthetic heart valves; biomaterials; hemocompatibility; blood-material interaction; in vivo test; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Thromboembolism (valve thrombosis and systemic embolism) is the main drawback of mechanical heart valve prostheses. The patients carrying these valves have to be subjected to life-long anticoagulant therapy to reduce thromboembolism. LÄS MER

  4. 28. On the Epidemiology of Soft Tissue Sarcoma and Risk of Cancer following Knee prosthesis surgery. Important factors and methodological notes

    Författare :Philippe Wagner; Lund Ortopedi; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Den aktuella avhandlingen härrör ur forskningsinsatser inom klinikerna för onkologi och ortopedi vid Universitetssjukhuset i Lund, och behandlar vad som ursprungligen verkade vara två skilda ämnen.Ena ämnet behandlar epidemiologin för mjukdelssarkom hos vuxna (MDS), en grupp av ofta dödliga sjukdomar av okänd orsak, som behandlas av både onkologer och ortopeder.

  5. 29. Noninvasive haemodynamic evaluation of aortic valve prostheses : Doppler echocardiographic studies at rest and during exercise

    Författare :Maria J Eriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :heart valve prosthesis; aortic valve replacement; Doppler echocardiography; exercise; haemodynamics; valve resistance;

    Sammanfattning : The present series of investigations was designed to supply information on in vivo pressure-flow relationships and to analyse the incidence of regurgitation in different heart valve prostheses in the aortic position. Patients and methods: The study population comprised 185 patients with mechanical Björk-Shiley Monostrut prostheses, 54 patients with Biocor stented porcine bioprostheses, 50 patients with extended Biocor stentless bioprostheses and 59 patients with cryopreserved aortic homografts.

  7. 30. Biosynthetic conduits and cell transplantation for neural repair

    Författare :Jonas Pettersson; Lev Novikov; Liudmila Novikova; Mikael Wiberg; Lars Dahlin; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Spinal cord injury; Peripheral nerve injury; Nerve graft; Biosynthetic conduit; Nerve tissue engineering; Neural prosthesis; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap; neurologi; Neurology; neurokirurgi; Neurosurgery;

    Sammanfattning : Spinal cord injury results in complete failure of the central neurons to regenerate and is associated with cyst formation and enlargement of the trauma zone. In contrast to the spinal cord, axons in the injured peripheral nerve have the capacity to undergo some spontaneous regeneration. LÄS MER
