Myocardial Perfusion and Function: Comparative assessment by ECG, SPECT and MRI

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning på svenska Sjukdom i hjärtat är mycket vanligt i västvärlden. I Sverige lider 12% av befolkningen av hjärt-kärlsjukdomar. Akut hjärtinfarkt är den vanligaste enskilda dödsorsaken. Sjukdomar i hjärtats kranskärl och deras komplikationer förorsakar totalt cirka 25% av alla dödsfall i Sverige. Hjärtsjukdom beror främst på förträngningar Evaluation of myocardial perfusion and function is important in management of patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease. This thesis focuses on the use of common diagnostic methods, myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (MPS) and electrocardiography (ECG), to enhance and validate the diagnostic information. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used

Systematic CIV3 and MCDF calculations for the UV0.01 multiplet in O III

We have carried out accurate, systematic calculations for the 2s2p(3 5)S(2)(o)-2s(2)2p(2 3)P(1,2) E1] lines at 1660.807 and 1666.153 Angstrom in O III. Uncertainty estimates for their A values and the lifetime of the S-5(2)o level have been determined from a set of quality criteria. A lifetime of 1.21 +/- 0.06 ms is recommended for this level, in excellent agreement with a recent experiment. The c

Folkhälsopedagogen söker legitimitet. Ett möte mellan pedagogik och verskamhetsförlagd utbildning.

Det folkhälsopedagogiska programmet vid högskolan i Kristianstad startade 1998 och kan ses som ett svar på de nya krav som samhället ställer på kompetens inom hälsoområdet, där sjukvårdande insatser ska ersättas eller kompletteras med hälsofrämjande arbete och där den pedagogiska dimensionen har ansetts särskilt viktig. Förutom att utbildningen ska vara relevant för den kommande yrkesfunktionen måThe aims of this thesis were to study how the students in the work experience period of The Study Program in Public Health and Education experienced how the discipline of education could contribute to health promotion in practice and if whether the integration between theory and practice in this case reached the appropriate higher education standard. The data collection comprised semi-structured i

Investigation of colour reconnection in WW events with the DELPHI detector at LEP-2

In the reaction e(+)e(-) -> WW -> (q(1) (q) over bar (2))(q(3)(q) over bar (4)) the usual hadronization models treat the colour singlets q(1)(q) over bar (2) and q(3)(q) over bar (4) coming from two W bosons independently. However, since the. nal state partons may coexist in space and time, cross-talk between the two evolving hadronic systems may be possible during fragmentation through soft gluon

Analytic expressions for the bit error probabilities of rate-1/2 memory 2 convolutional encoders

Analytic expressions for the exact bit error probabilities of rate R = 1/2, memory m = 2 convolutional encoders are derived for a maximum-likelihood (ML) decoder and transmission over the binary-symmetric channel (BSC). The resulting expressions are rational functions of the crossover probability of the BSC. In addition to classical nonsystematic encoders without feedback, we consider also recursi

Adsorptive fouling of modified and unmodified commercial polymeric ultrafiltration membranes

The fouling tendency, due to adsorption on the pore walls, of two pairs of modified and unmodified ultrafiltration membranes, with similar observed retentions determined by dextran and gel permeation chromatography, was studied. The membranes investigated were made of modified and unmodified polyaramide (PA) and modified and unmodified polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). The PVDF membrane was surface-

Circulating heat shock protein and heat shock protein antibody levels in established hypertension.

OBJECTIVE Serum Hsp60 and anti-Hsp65 antibody levels are raised in subjects with borderline hypertension, and there is an association between circulating Hsp60 levels and early atherosclerosis. Given the recognized relationship between hypertension and atherosclerosis, this study determined heat shock protein and heat shock protein antibody levels in subjects with established hypertension.METHODS

Prediction of permanent deformations in asphalt concrete using the mechanistic-empirical pavement design guide

Permanent deformations, or rutting, are internationally considered to be one of the most serious distress mechanisms in asphalt pavements. Deterioration modeling is an important tool for performance prediction and diagnostics of pavements. The Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (M-E PDG) model used for calculation of permanent deformation in asphalt layers was to be evaluated. It was acco

In-plane tension behaviour of masonry

The main purpose of the present work is to increase knowledge of in-plane tension behav-iour of masonry and develop a model able to describe the impact of parameters influencing cracking caused by restrained shrinkage. In the process the mechanism of load transfer between units and mortar joints is described. The influence of cohesion between units and mortar joints, unit and joint geometry and ex

Attitude towards remission induction for elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia influences survival.

Combination chemotherapy may induce remission from acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but validated criteria for treatment of elderly are lacking. The remission intention ( RI) rate for elderly patients, as reported to the Swedish Leukemia Registry, was known to be different when comparing the six health care regions, but the consequences of different management are unknown. The Leukemia Registry, cont

Distribution and function of TRP ion channels in primary sensory neurons

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vad hade vi varit utan våra sinnen? Föreställ dig en värld utan att kunna se, höra, lukta, smaka och känna. Det är med hjälp av våra sinnen som kroppen kan känna vad som händer i vår omgivning. Ett av våra sinnen är smärtsinnet, som har till uppgift att varna oss för inre och yttre faror. Trots att smärta är den i särklass vanligaste orsaken till mänskligt lidande, så äIt is frequently argued that cannabinoids exert part of their analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects via activation of the cannabinoid CB1 receptor located on TRPV1-expressing primary sensory nerve fibres in peripheral tissues. However, we find no evidence of CB1 receptor immunoreactivity on nerve fibres in rat or mouse hindpaw skin and mesenteric artery. The CB1 receptor agonists anandamide and
