16. Vacuum-assisted closure in cardiac surgery - clinical outcome and vascular effects
Sammanfattning : The aim of this research was to clinically and experimentally evaluate the use of vacuum-assisted closure in poststernotomy mediastinitis after cardiac surgery. Vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) is a new wound-healing therapy based on the application of a local negative pressure to the wound. LÄS MER
17. Allergen-induced airway reactions in the pig in vivo : inflammatory mediators as targets for asthma therapy
Sammanfattning : A pig model for studies of allergen-induced airway reactions has previously been developed. These pigs are actively sensitized to Ascaris suum and challenged with this antigen in the airways under anesthesia. LÄS MER
18. Importance of MAPK and PKC in cerebrovascular endothelin receptor changes
Sammanfattning : Endothelin is a vasoactive peptide that exerts its effect through two receptors; the endothelin type A (ETA) and type B (ETB) receptor. The contractile ETA receptor is localized on smooth muscle cells in the vascular wall, while the ETB receptors are mainly situated on endothelial cells, mediating vasodilatation. LÄS MER
19. The importance of arginase for vascular dysfunction in patients with glucose and lipid abnormalities
Sammanfattning : Introduction: Endothelial dysfunction is one important mediator behind atherosclerosis. Maintained bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO) is critical to keep the fragile balance of endothelial function. Reduced NO arise from reduced production or increased elimination of NO. LÄS MER
20. Hydronephrosis in childhood : An experimental and clinical study
Sammanfattning : In this thesis the pathophysiology of hydronephrosis due to ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction was studied. The kidney adapts to obstruction by changes in renal blood flow (RBF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR). LÄS MER
