  1. 1. Manifestations and Survival in Coronary Heart Disease

    Författare :Kerstin Dudas; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :coronary heart disease; acute coronary syndrome; coronary-bypass grafting; mortality; case fatality; survival; manifestation; predictors; risk factors; trends; cholesterol;

    Sammanfattning : Aim: To investigate how risk factors predict manifestations in coronary heart disease (CHD), and trends in short-term and long-term survival including trends in out-of-hospital mortality. Populations and methods: In the first study 7388 men aged 47 to 55 and free of previous acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or stroke were investigated during 28 years’ follow-up. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Diabetes mellitus and acute coronary syndromes. Prognosis and risk factors

    Författare :Ann-Marie Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :diabetes; prognosis; hyperglycaemia; hypoglycaemia; risk-factors; morbidity; mortality; unstable coronary syndrome; unstable angina pectoris; acute myocardial infarction;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: the aims of the thesis were: - To investigate the prognostic influence of diabetes on short- and long-term mortality after an episode of unstable coronary disease - To evaluate the association between glycometabolic parameters on admission and during hospitalization and the 2 year mortality risk among diabetic patients with unstable coronary disease - To investigate the influence of diabetes on treatment and outcome in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) - To determine long-term morbidity and mortality after hospitalization for unstable coronary disease in patients with and without diabetes Diabetes was associated with higher mortality: We investigated an unselected series of 4,341 patients with unstable angina or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction, of which 722 (17%) had diabetes. Diabetes was associated with increased mortality during initial hospitalization (10. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Acute Coronary Syndromes. Characteristics, management and prognosis in relation to gender and type of syndrome

    Författare :Elisabeth Perers; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Acute coronary syndromes; gender; age; treatment; quality of life; outcome;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Background: Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) represent a wide spectrum of conditions from ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) to unstable angina pectoris (UAP). Randomized trials tend to focus on ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-elevation ACS, and consequently studies providing data on the entire condition are relatively scarce, especially with information including long-term follow-up.
