Popular Abstract in Swedish Att behandla hjärtsjukdomar med hjärtkirurgi är en väl prövad behandlingsmetod med goda resultat. Många patienter blir symptomfria och får därigenom en markant ökad livskvalitet. Som vi nästan all andra typer av behandlingar förekommer komplikationer. Den mest fruktade komplikationen inom hjärtkirurgi är en neurologisk skada. Grovt sett indelas denna komplikation i två The brain-derived protein S100B is a 21 Kda dimerand have been used as a serum marker for brain damage of different etiology. The feasability of protein S100B as serum marker for brain damage after cardiac surgery was studied in this thesis. One unexpected finding was made, which changed the basis for interpration of S100B levels. Shed blood collected during surgery with cardiotomy suction contain

Popular Abstract in Swedish Åderförkalkning, eller rättare sagt åderförfettning är den vanligaste dödsorsakerna i västvärlden och frekvensen ökar samtidigt som symptomen går nedåt i åldrarna. Därför är det mycket viktigt för oss att få reda på vad som grundlägger sjukdomen, hur vi skall kunna motverka dess uppkomst och hur vi skall kunna bota den. Vi vet inte med säkerhet varför en individ drabbasInflammation plays an important role in atherosclerosis. One of the most potent pro-inflammatory cytokines is tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a), a cytokine identified to have a pathogenic role in chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The major objectives of this investigation was to establish a role for TNF-a in the development of atherosclerosis and neointimal formati

Popular Abstract in Swedish När man förenar idéerna “status” och “konsumtion” tänker många automatiskt på dyra varumärken, konspikuös lyx, bling-bling och spektakulär extravaganza. Inte minst i fallet “hem” går associationerna till Hollywood-stjärnor, enorma villor, kända arkitekter, swimming pools och dyr möbeldesign-hysteri. Men, givet att de flesta människor inte har medlen, och kanske mer viktWhen lumping the notions of “status” and “consumption” together, people often think of expensive brands, conspicuous luxury, bling-bling and spectacular extravaganza. Not least in the case of the “home,” such associations go to Hollywood stars, spacious mansions, famous architects, swimming pools, and high-priced furniture design frenzy. But given that most people don’t have the means, and perhaps

Stability of some decentralized traffic signal control policies for urban traffic networks is studied. It is proven that, whenever the arrival rates belong to a certain region -which is the largest where stability is possible- the resulting traffic network dynamics admit a globally asymptotically stable equilibrium. The results rely on the use of some entropy-like Lyapunov functions previously con

In this work, we present a novel method for non-invasive identification of liquids, for instance to allow for the detection of liquid explosives at airports or border controls. The approach is based on a nuclear magnetic resonance technique with an inhomogeneous magnetic field, forming estimates of the liquid's spin-spin relaxation time, T2, and diffusion constant, D, thereby allowing for a unique
