  • Clinical characteristics and long-term outcomes following pancreatic injury – An international multicenter cohort study
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Heliyon. - : CELL PRESS. - 2405-8440. ; 9:6
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Trauma to the pancreas is rare but associated with significant morbidity. Currently available management guidelines are based on low-quality evidence and data on long-term outcomes is lacking. This study aimed to evaluate clinical characteristics and patient-reported long-term outcomes for pancreatic injury. Methods: A retrospective cohort study evaluating treatment for pancreatic injury in 11 centers across 5 European nations over >10 years was performed. Data relating to pancreatic injury and treatment were collected from hospital records. Patients reported quality of life (QoL), changes to employment and new or ongoing therapy due to index injury. Results: In all, 165 patients were included. The majority were male (70.9%), median age was 27 years (range: 6–93) and mechanism of injury predominantly blunt (87.9%). A quarter of cases were treated conservatively; higher injury severity score (ISS) and American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) pancreatic injury scores increased the likelihood for surgical, endoscopic and/or radiologic intervention. Isolated, blunt pancreatic injury was associated with younger age and pancreatic duct involvement; this cohort appeared to benefit from non-operative management. In the long term (median follow-up 93; range 8–214 months), exocrine and endocrine pancreatic insufficiency were reported by 9.3% of respondents. Long-term analgesic use also affected 9.3% of respondents, with many reported quality of life problems (QoL) potentially attributable to side-effects of opiate therapy. Overall, impaired QoL correlated with higher ISS scores, surgical therapy and opioid analgesia on discharge. Conclusions: Pancreatic trauma is rare but can lead to substantial short- and long-term morbidity. Near complete recovery of QoL indicators and pancreatic function can occur despite significant injury, especially in isolated, blunt pancreatic injury managed conservatively and when early weaning off opiate analgesia is achieved.

  • Formation of amyloid in human pancreatic islets transplanted to the liver and spleen of nude mice
  • 2003
  • Ingår i: Upsala Journal of Medical Sciences. - 0300-9734 .- 2000-1967. ; 108:3, s. 193-203
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • In previous studies we have shown that apparently normal human islets, transplanted under the renal capsule of nude mice, frequently and rapidly develop amyloid deposits derived from the ▀-cell hormone islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP). In the present study, we show for the first time that human islets, transplanted into the liver or spleen of nude mice, also develop islet amyloid rapidly. Ultrastructural studies of such islets showed that the first aggregation of IAPP takes place within the ▀-cells and that extracellular deposits show up later in the amyloid formation process. We also found that the amount of amyloid formed in human islet grafts placed under the kidney capsule increased with extended (26 weeks) observation time. Moreover, prolonged in vitro culture (14 days) prior to the implantation under the renal capsule seemed to enhance the formation of amyloid in the grafted islets. Since aggregated IAPP has been shown to be toxic to ▀-cells, the finding of amyloid deposits in transplanted islets offers a possible explanation to the frequent loss of function of islets transplanted into diabetic patients.

  • Amyloid Deposition in Transplanted Human Pancreatic Islets : A Conceivable Cause of Their Long-Term Failure
  • 2008
  • Ingår i: EXPERIMENTAL DIABETES RESEARCH. - : Hindawi Limited. - 1687-5214 .- 1687-5303. ; 2008:562985
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Following the encouraging report of the Edmonton group, there was a rejuvenation of the islet transplantation field. After that, more pessimistic views spread when long-term results of the clinical outcome were published. A progressive loss of the beta-cell function meant that almost all patients were back on insulin therapy after 5 years. More than 10 years ago, we demonstrated that amyloid deposits rapidly formed in human islets and in mouse islets transgenic for human IAPP when grafted into nude mice. It is, therefore, conceivable to consider amyloid formation as one potential candidate for the long-term failure. The present paper reviews attempts in our laboratories to elucidate the dynamics of and mechanisms behind the formation of amyloid in transplanted islets with special emphasis on the impact of long-term hyperglycemia.

  • Brachytherapy and osteoradionecrosis in patients with base of tongue cancer
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Acta Oto-Laryngologica. - : Informa UK Limited. - 0001-6489 .- 1651-2251. ; 143:1, s. 77-84
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Base of tongue cancer incidence and patient survival is increasing why treatment sequelae becomes exceedingly important. Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is a late adverse effect of radiotherapy and brachytherapy (BT) could be a risk factor. Brachytherapy is used in three out of six health care regions in Sweden. Aims: Investigate if patients treated in regions using BT show an increased risk for ORN and whether brachytherapy has any impact on overall survival. Material and Methods: We used data from the Swedish Head and Neck Cancer Register between 2008–2014. Due to the nonrandomized nature of the study and possible selection bias we compared the risk for ORN in brachy vs non-brachy regions. Results: Fifty out of 505 patients (9.9%) developed ORN; eight of these were treated in nonbrachy regions (16%), while 42 (84%) were treated in brachy regions. Neither age, sex, TNM-classification/stage, p16, smoking, neck dissection, or chemotherapy differed between ORN and no-ORN patients. The risk for ORN was significantly higher for patients treated in brachy regions compared to non-brachy regions (HR = 2,63, p =.012), whereas overall survival did not differ (HR = 0.95, p =.782). Conclusions and Significance: Brachytherapy ought to be used cautiously for selected patients or within prospective randomized studies.
