  • Mortality prediction and equity in emergency care 

    Malmer, Gustav (Inst för kliniska vetenskaper, Danderyds sjukhus / Dept of Clinical Sciences, Danderyd Hospital, 2024-05-03)
    Introduction: Emergency departments (EDs) face crowding and long patient waiting times due to resource-demand imbalances. Waiting exposes patients to sufferings and risks, such as pain, anxiety, permanent organ damage, or ...
  • Wearable neuromuscular electrical stimulation on quadriceps muscle can increase venous flow 

    Flodin, Johanna; Wallenius, Philip; Guo, Li; Persson, Nils-Krister; Ackermann, Paul (Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2024-05-03)
    Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) of the quadriceps (Q) may increase venous blood flow to reduce the risk of venous thromboembolism. This study assessed whether Q-NMES pants could increase peak venous velocity ...
  • Residual substance P levels after capsaicin treatment correlate with tendon repair 

    Bring, Daniel K I; Paulson, Kent; Renstrom, Per; Salo, Paul; Hart, David A; Ackermann, Paul W (Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2024-05-03)
    The aim of the study was to assess healing after capsaicin-induced SP depletion during rat Achilles tendon repair by biomechanical testing. Capsaicin treatment reduced the concentrations of substance P (SP) by ~60% ...
  • Prolonged immobilization compromises up-regulation of repair genes after tendon rupture in a rat model 

    Bring, D; Reno, C; Renstrom, P; Salo, P; Hart, D; Ackermann, P (Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2024-05-03)
    It was hypothesized that mobilization versus immobilization after injury would promote tissue healing by regulating gene expression for molecules associated with repair. Cast immobilization versus free mobilization was ...
  • High plantar force loading after Achilles tendon rupture repair with early functional mobilization 

    Aufwerber, Susanna; Heijne, Annette; Grävare Silbernagel, Karin; Ackermann, Paul W; Ackermann, Paul (Inst för molekylär medicin och kirurgi / Dept of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, 2024-05-03)
    Background: Mechanical loading is essential for tendon healing and may explain variability in patient outcomes after Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) repair. However, there is no consensus regarding the optimal postoperative ...
