Electrical impedance related to experimental induced changes of human skin and oral mucosa
(1998-08-17)
There is a need for an objective and non-invasive method for assessing reactions in the human skin and oral mucosa, particularly for weak reactions. During the past few decades, several methods of measuring irritant responses ...
Distal radius fractures : epidemiology and aspects of surgical management
(2020-11-06)
Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are the most common fractures treated by physicians. About 20% of all DRFs are treated surgically. The main surgical methods are volar plate fixation, external fixation and percutaneous ...
Studies of changes in volume in right ventricle with electrical bio impedance
(2002-12-12)
In intracardiac impedance, electrical bio-impedance is measured inside the heart. This signal is known to reflect the volume of blood passing in and out of the ventricles. In transthoracic impedance the measurement current ...
The male predominance in oesophageal adenocarcinoma and the role of sex hormones
(2023-02-28)
Oesophageal adenocarcinoma is a subtype of oesophageal cancer with rapidly rising incidence over the last decades. This rise in incidence is strongest in western countries and more among men than in women, with a male predominance of up to 9:1...
Cost analysis and policy implications in psychiatric care
(2009-04-01)
in Sweden in 2001 (Study I) was estimated at MSEK 85 774 (M€ 9 426, €1= SEK9.1). Indirect costs were totally predominant and constituted about 80% of the total cost, i.e. production losses due to early retirement, sickness absence and premature death...
Genetic studies of congenital upper limb anomalies
(2014-03-03)
available medical records and X-rays retrospectively at all hospitals treating CULA in Stockholm county between 1997 and 2007 we identified 562 individuals with CULA resulting in an incidence of 21.5 per 10000 live births. In 99 of the 562 individuals (18...
Apoptosis and inflammation regulation after injury to the developing brain
(2015-09-25)
The brain shows greater plasticity in early life than in maturity, which paradoxically renders the organ more vulnerable to hypoxia-ischemia (HI)- and cranial irradiation (IR)- induced damage. Apoptosis after a HI insult ...
Risk factors for autoimmune-mediated congenital heart block
(2017-11-24)
Placental transfer of maternal Ro/SSA and La/SSB autoantibodies during pregnancy is associated with conduction disturbances and inflammation in the developing fetal heart, termed autoimmune-mediated congenital heart block ...
Ready to pull : force transmission during vascular development
(2019-12-17)
The transmission of mechanical forces controls a multitude of cellular processes such as migration, the formation of new organs, muscle contraction, and resistance to the continuous stress that blood flow exerts on the ...
Functional analysis of long non-coding RNAs in cancer
(2017-11-24)
For years the functional role of noncoding RNAs was greatly underestimated. Whole genome RNA sequencing projects that unraveled pervasive transcription emitting from large parts of the human genome changed those perspectives ...
