Popular Abstract in Swedish Det finns en rad situationer då celler, företrädesvis nervceller, i hjärnan dör till följd av en kraftigt begränsad eller helt förhindrad blodtillförsel sk. ischemi. Till dessa hör "Stroke" eller slaganfall. Skallskada, drunkningsolyckor eller hjärtstopp med återupplivning, och hypoglykemi vid insulinkoma är ytterligare några fall där energi- eller syrgastillförseln är Mechanisms of Mitochondria-Induced Brain Damage Following Ischemia and Hypoglycemia Following prolonged disruption of blood flow to the central nervous system (CNS), or energy deprivation by other means, such as hypoglycemia, some cells will inevitably degenerate. It has been, and still is, the subject of considerable debate and intense research on brain ischemia, as to the mode of cell death, i.

Background No data exist regarding mortality rate in young patients with a first-time anterior shoulder dislocation. A cohort of 255 patients aged 1240 years had a primary anterior shoulder dislocation during the years 1978 and 1979. After 10 years, 9 of the patients had died-which is a high figure for this cohort of patients. The question thus arose as to whether these patients had an increased m

PURPOSE: To offer minimized risk-adapted adjuvant treatment on a nationwide basis for patients with clinical stage 1 (CS1) nonseminomatous germ-cell testicular cancer (NSGCT). The aim was to reduce the risk of relapse and thereby reducing the need of later salvage chemotherapy while maintaining a high cure rate. PATIENTS AND METHODS: From 1998 to 2005, 745 Norwegian and Swedish patients were inclu

Registry based cancer incidence and mortality data are widely used for etiologic research, cancer control and health care monitoring and planning. The complete coverage of all cases is the key criteria of data quality but it is difficult to assess because the alternative sources of data may be flawed. The aim of this study was to examine, at a nationwide level, the completeness of the Swedish Canc

The astroglial protein S100 is an established biochemical marker for CNS injury in the adult. The aim was to investigate whether S100 in serum is a prognostic marker of cerebral injury in term newborn infants, with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) after perinatal asphyxia. Serum S100 was measured on postnatal days 1-4 in 62 term infants with birth asphyxia. The infants were classified for HIE

Aim and objectives. This article explores relatives' experiences of receiving soft tissue massage as a support supplement while caring for a dying family member at home. Background. In palliative home care, relatives play an important role as carers to seriously ill and dying family members. To improve their quality of life, different support strategies are of importance. Complementary methods, su

BackgroundUnderstanding the heterogeneity of opioid overdose fatalities is critical to developing effective preventive interventions. This study examines patterns of care contacts among people who subsequently died from opioid overdose. The aim was to identify distinct groups of deceased individuals, based on their contacts with different care agencies in their last year of life.MethodsA retrospec

1. We manipulated the size hierarchy in broods of marsh tits (Parus palustris L.) by simulating hatching asynchrony to study how nestlings of different competitive ability, allocate their share of parental feedings to different growth strategies. 2. The mean rate of mass increase and the mass when the growth curve had reached an asymptote increased with the predicted competitive ability of nestlin

INTRODUCTION: The incidence of pancreatic cancer is around 5 in 100,000, and the 5-year survival is poor. Pancreatic cancer patients have a high disease-specific burden of symptoms, and palliative chemotherapy has varying side effects. The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) suggests integrating specialized palliative care (SPC) with standard oncological treatment for pancreatic cancer pa

An analysis on selecting cutting speed, cutting feed and depth of cut when collecting data for the Colding Tool Life Model based on Woxen's Equivalent Chip Thickness was performed to achieve the lowest possible model error. All possible combinations of a large data set were evaluated with regard to model error. This work shows that an increase of ratio between the highest and lowest cutting speed,

A total of 12 patients previously treated for acute hepatitis of unknown aetiology were retrospectively found to be anti-hepatitis E virus (HEV) IgG-positive. Four patients were anti-HEV IgM- and IgG-positive consistent with an acute HEV infection. All 4 had travelled to or were immigrants from HEV-endemic countries. One anti-HEV IgM-negative patient seroconverted from anti-HEV IgG-negative to pos
