16. Cardiopulmonary bypass: Clinical studies in cardiac surgery patients
Sammanfattning : BACKGROUND: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is necessary to facilitate most cardiac operations. Although the vast majority of patients tolerate CPB physiology in conjunction with cardiac surgery well, there is risks of adverse outcomes. Optimal CPB perfusion is not defined, and may vary according to operation and patient specific factors. LÄS MER
17. Mechanisms of neutrophil recruitment in septic lung injury
Sammanfattning : Sepsis is one of leading cause of death despite aggressive surgical intervention and antibiotic therapies. Excessive neutrophil recruitment is a major feature in early phase with immune system dysfunction at later phase. Lung is the most vulnerable, critical and sensitive organ during sepsis process.

18. In vivo imaging of leukocyte-endothelium interactions in septic lung injury
Sammanfattning : Excessive accumulation of leukocytes in the lung represents a key feature in the development of an acute lung injury (ALI). Numerous studies demonstrated that leukocyte rolling is a compulsory precondition for the firm adhesion in organs. However, it seems that the recruitment process of leukocytes in the lung is more complex. LÄS MER
19. Heparin-binding protein and organ failure in critical illness
Sammanfattning : Background: For patients severely ill enough to require care in an intensive care unit (ICU), both the disease itself (e.g. bacteria in the blood in sepsis or fractures after trauma) and effects of the immune system can cause circulatory, pulmonary, or renal dysfunction. Leukocytes play a dominant role in the immune system. LÄS MER
20. Pathophysiology and treatment of chlorine gas-induced lung injury : an experimental study in pigs
Sammanfattning : One of the most threatening scenarios in disaster medicine is the accidental release of toxic gases with the exposure of many people. In this respect, chlorine gas remains a significant threat due to its abundant use and transport through densely populated areas in modem society. LÄS MER
