  1. 1. Cardiac effects of non-adrenergic inotropic drugs : clinical and experimental studies

    Författare :Birger Axelsson; Michael Haney; Hans Tydén; Anil Gupta; Patrick Wouters; Sven-Erik Ricksten; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Milrinone; levosimendan; vein graft flow; myocardial ischemia; protection; inotropy; diastole; Anaesthesiology; anestesiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Myocardial failure and dysfunction is not uncommon during critical illness and following cardiac surgery. For optimal treatment, a better understanding of the effects of inotropic drugs is needed. In this thesis, two non-adrenergic mediated inotropes, milrinone and levosimendan were studied in different models of myocardial dysfunction. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Vascular Wall Responses to Bypass Grafting - Studies in Mice

    Författare :Klas Österberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Intimal hyperplasia; graft stenosis; smooth muscle cells; mice; cellular recruitment;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract Vein grafts are frequently used in bypass surgery for treatment of coronary artery disease and lower limb ischemia. Unfortunately the long-term patency is impaired by vein graft stenoses due to intimal hyperplasia (IH). It is assumed that exaggerated intimal thickening is initiated by vessel wall injuries or local flow disturbances. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Studies on the interaction of human cells with transplantable materials for skin repair and cardiovascular surgery

    Författare :Katarina Jansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Cell culture; Keratinocytes; Fibroblasts; Endothelial cells; Reepithelialization; In vitro endothelialization; Tissue engineering; Biomaterial: Dermal substitute; Synthetic vascular graft; Heart valve bioprosthesis;

    Sammanfattning : Tissue engineering is becoming an important field for the development of new tissues in vitro for replacement of diseased or worn out parts of the body. This thesis describes some characteristics of cultured human cells seeded on transplantable materials for skin repair and cardiovascular surgery. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Monitoring and prevention of ischaemia-reperfusion injury in liver transplantation : experimental and clinical studies

    Författare :Grzegorz Nowak; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Liver function after transplantation is determined not only by the quality of the donor organ or recipient related factors, but also by factors associated with organ preservation. During preservation, the liver graft is exposed to ischaemia and reperfusion with subsequent injury to the transplanted liver. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Popliteal Artery Aneurysms : - epidemiology, treatment and results

    Författare :Anne Cervin; Martin Björck; Mårten Falkenberg; Hans Ravn; Michelle Antonello; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Popliteal artery aneurysms; Endovascular; Open surgery; Outcome; Occlusion; Screening; Prevalence; Rupture; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Popliteal aneurysms (PA) are limb threatening, since the aneurysm thrombose and emboli from the aneurysm sac occlude the distal vessels, resulting in chronic or acute limb ischaemia. Open surgical repair (OSR) has been challenged by endovascular repair (ER), a minimal invasive technique. LÄS MER
