Cardiorespiratory effects of venous lipid micro embolization in an experimental model of mediastinal shed blood reinfusion.

BACKGROUND: Retransfusion of the patient's own blood during surgery is used to reduce the need for allogenic blood transfusion. It has however been found that this blood contains lipid particles, which form emboli in different organs if the blood is retransfused on the arterial side. In this study, we tested whether retransfusion of blood containing lipid micro-particles on the venous side in a po

Influence of cracks on moisture conditions in façades with water-repellent treatments

A water-repellent treatment normally works well if there are no cracks in the façade. The occurrence of cracks, however, may allow water to penetrate, resulting in significant moisture. How wide a crack may be tolerated is not known. A limit of 0,3 mm is often allowed. To illuminate this question and create a better basis for evaluating an acceptable width for a crack, this paper will present both

Coronary microembolization causes long-term detrimental effects on regional left ventricular function.

Abstract Objectives. To investigate whether coronary microemboli have long-term effects on left ventricular (LV) function in an experimental model. Furthermore, to determine if first-pass perfusion and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) patterns differs between small- and large-sized microemboli. Design. Six pigs underwent left anterior descending (LAD)-coronary microembolization with small-sized (

Kinetic fluorescence studies of 5-aminolaevulinic acid-induced protoporphyrin IX accumulation in basal cell carcinomas

Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) investigations have been performed in connection with photodynamic therapy (PDT) of basal cell carcinomas and adjacent normal skin following topical application of 5-aminolaevulinic acid (ALA) in order to study the kinetics of the protoporphyrin TX (PpIX) build-up. Five superficial and 10 nodular lesions in 15 patients are included in the study. Fluorescence measur

Lung function in relation to 2-thiothiazolidine-4-carboxylic Acid and genetic effect modification among rubber workers in sweden.

OBJECTIVE:: What is the risk of impaired lung function in contemporary Swedish rubber workers and are there modifying effects of genetic variants? METHODS:: Included in the study were 159 rubber exposed and 118 not-rubber exposed workers. Lung function was analyzed as forced vital capacity percent of predicted and forced expiratory volume in 1 second percent of predicted. Levels of 2-thiothiazolid
