    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; juvenile chronic arthritis; temporomandibular joints; temporomandibular disorders; costochondral grafts; growth; revascularisation; microangiography; fluorochrome labelling.;

    Sammanfattning : In children with juvenile chronic arthritis (JCA), disturbances of mandibular growth and function may result in involvement of the temporomandibular joints (TMJs). The aim of this thesis was to study the stomatognathic system in JCA children and long-term effects on facial growth of treatment comprising replacement of arthritic mandibular condyles with autogenous costochondral grafts (CCGs) during growth.

    Sammanfattning : BACKGROUNDPostoperative heart failure in the setting of aortic valve surgery results in poor long-term survival. We hypothesized that there could be a myocardial factor that is not addressed by risk scores currently available. We speculated that this myocardial factor could be diastolic dysfunction. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Hyperthyroidism : a chronic disease?

    Författare :Gabriel Sjölin; Göran Wallin; Mikael Lantz; Laszlo Hegedus; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hyperthyroidism; Graves’ disease; toxic nodular goitre; longterm follow-up; Quality of Life; radioactivated iodine; antithyroid drugs; thyroidectomy; index patient;

    Sammanfattning : During 2003-2005, approximately 3,000 de novo hyperthyroid patients were collected in Sweden and became one of the world's largest hyperthyroidism studies. This dissertation shows that many people diagnosed with hyperthyroidism live with its impacts even after excess of thyroid hormone has ended. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Engineering tissue – Bacterial cellulose as a potential biomaterial

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular diseases are still the predominant cause of death among the adult population in the Western world. Diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke are caused by occluded blood vessels, as a result of atherosclerosis. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Knee joint kinematics, fixation and function related to joint area design in total knee arthroplasty

    Författare :Johan Uvehammer; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Total knee arthroplasty; polyethylene insert; kinematics; migration; clinical outcome; inducible displacement of the tibial component; radiostereometry.;

    Sammanfattning : The aim was to study the influence of different designs of the joint area on tibial component fixation, kinematics and clinical outcome after a cemented total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The HSS score and a special questionnaire were used at the clinical examination. LÄS MER
