- Diabetic nephropathy is a common complication in diabetes mellitus. In addition to the risk of renal failure, patients with established nephropathy are at increased risk of proliferative retinopathy and cardiovascular disease. As the earliest prodrome of nephropathy is microalbuminuria, albumin excretion needs to be monitored with a reliable method in all diabetics. In the event of microalbuminuria, diabetes treatment needs to be intensified to optimise metabolic regulation. Early institution of antihypertensive treatment is essential to avoid progression to clinical nephropathy.

- Since it was first introduced at the beginning of the century, laparoscopy has been developed by pioneers in the field of gynaecological surgery from a diagnostic aid to a high tech tool for use in various branches of surgery. In the near future, this rapidly developing technique, with three-dimensional video and robot-assisted surgery, will require well planned theoretical and practical training.

[Perceptual impairment].
- 1989

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- After a brain injury, whether traumatic or caused by a stroke, perceptual impairments are common. They are, however, only seldom revealed by a routine physical examination. In this article, the many manifestations of perceptual impairment and tests for perceptual function are briefly presented. It appears that perceptual deficits contribute largely to reduced self-care ability in patients with brain lesions. An effective training program for perceptual deficits remains to be developed.

Diabetes mellitus--nya svenska nationella riktlinjer
- 1997
-
Ingår i: Nordisk medicin. - 0029-1420. ; 112:5, s. 151-153
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In 1996, national guidelines for the care and treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus were drawn up by specialists, in collaboration with representatives of the patient organisation, diabetes nurses, the professional associations of various medical specialties and central authorities. The national programme is divides into three parts: summarised information for decision-makers, clinical guidelines and complete information for patients. The guidelines are designed to provide a basis for treatment programmes at the local level. Among other things, the national guidelines stress the importance of the diabetes nurse both in primary and tertiary care, and emphasise the need of regional centers providing access to information and education and promoting the development of treatment. Another important aspect is fostering the influence of patient organisations at the local level, in order for the guidelines to have an impact on the quality of care for the individual patient.

Autolog broskcellstransplantation. Smärtlindring och återställd ledfunktion är målet : Autologous cartilage cell transplantation. The goal is pain relief and restored joint function
- 1995

-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Chondral and osteochondral damage is a common result of trauma to the joints. The capacity of cartilage to heal such damage is poor, and repetitive wear on joint surfaces that do not heal results in impaired joint function, which can culminate in full blown arthrosis. Thus, it is important to improve our knowledge of cartilage regenerative potential, and develop methods to forestall progression to arthrosis by promoting the early healing of cartilage damage. Autologous cartilage cell transplantation may be a mean of healing cartilage damage. A method of cultivating autologous chondrocytes for transplantation in the treatment of isolated damage to articular cartilage of the knee is presented in the article.

Konsekvenser av reumatoid artrit i tidigt skede
- 1994
-
Ingår i: Nordisk medicin. - 0029-1420. ; 109:8-9, s. 218-220

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The consequences of early rheumatoid arthritis were studied in a series of patients treated at University Hospital, Lund, during the period 1985-1989. Mean disease duration at enrollment was 12 months. Most of the patients have now been followed prospectively for five years, during which time disease activity and pain have increased markedly. Ability to perform the activities of daily living (ADL) was well maintained, and the level of psychological distress fairly low. Radiographic changes in the hands and feet increased markedly, hand deformity being a common sign of severe disease; and only about ten per cent of the patients remained non-erosive. Another subgroup of ten per cent of the patients manifested rapidly progressive disease, resulting in destruction of larger joints, particularly hip joints, necessitating joint replacement in one or both hips. Eighteen per cent of the patients were in remission at 5-year follow-up. At 2-year follow-up, there was a high (37 per cent) prevalence of work disability, most patients who had had to stop work having done so in the first year. Physically demanding work and difficulties in performing ADL at presentation were the best predictors of subsequent work disability. The disease had a pronounced effect on life style, ability to cope with shopping, housework, leisure activities and social activities being adversely affected in more than half the patients.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A successful model of liaison between the primary and secondary (hospital) levels of health care entails improved co-operation between hospital doctors and general practitioners (GPs). Since its introduction in Denmark in 1991, this approach has been adopted in Sweden and, to a lesser extent, in Norway. Important principles of the model include: 1) both at the primary and secondary level, responsibility for cooperation rests with the physicians themselves; 2) all physicians at both levels are involved; 3) liaison is maintained by selected GPs serving as liaison officers acting in concert under the guidance of a coordinator; 4) liaison officers are responsible for cultivating personal contacts and good relations at hospitals, and promoting interest in and commitment to the system. Evaluation of the model requires both quantitative and qualitative studies. Although few evaluations have been completed, and no definite conclusions can be drawn, the preliminary results of current evaluations in progress in Sweden and Norway are promising, as are the reported experiences of those who use the system. A Nordic ad hoc group has been actively engaged in promoting the quality of primary-secondary health care liaison since 1997.

[PET in neuroendocrine tumors].

Ingår i: Nordisk Medicin. - 0029-1420. ; 113:9, s. 308-312
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- With the radionuclide tracers available today, 50-90 per cent of neuroendocrine tumours of the gastro-intestinal tract can be visualised with PET (positron-emission tomography). PET also enables the effect of tumour treatment to be monitored in terms of biochemical and functional variables, which is not possible with other radiological techniques. Owing to the very good tumour resolution possible with PET, it serves as a complement to other routine methods such as computed tomography and ultrasonography, and can be used to screen the chest and abdomen for small primary tumours that can not be detected with other methods. In several pre-operative trials PET has been shown to demonstrate more changes in the pancreas and liver than was possible with other methods. In the near future it will be possible to demonstrate the presence of and quantify growth factor receptors, hormones, enzymes, DNA synthesis, mRNA synthesis and protein synthesis. Access to these tumour biological data will be of crucial importance to the individualisation of treatment.

[Differential diagnosis in adrenal gland tumors using PET and 11C-metomidate]
- 1998
-
Ingår i: Nordisk Medicin. - 0029-1420. ; 113:9, s. 306-307

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We have investigated 13 patients with incidentaloma using PET with 11C-metomidate. The patients included six adrenocortical adenomas, one adrenal cancer, two pheochromocytomas, one myelolipoma, one benign cyst and two metastases. A very high tracer uptake was observed in all tumors originating from the adrenal cortex, allowing excellent visualisation, whereas all other processes were negative. PET with 11C-metomidate is a very promising method for the characterisation of incidentalomas and is suggested to be included very early in the evaluation of these patients.

- Sick leave from work is on the increase throughout the Western world, despite improvements in welfare and the continual mechanization of heavy industry. By means of early, active rehabilitation measures in cases of musculoskeletal disorders, the duration of sick certification can be reduced and extended absence from work prevented. This has been demonstrated in a successful cooperative project involving the health and social services where, after two years in operation, the saving in costs to the community is calculated to have been SEK 4.5 millions. A brief outline of the project is given in the article.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Positron emission tomography has developed very much since the start in the late 1970s, especially with the development of new labelling procedures for PET-tracers. With the development of whole body imaging and the discovery that 18F-FDG allows a high sensitivity for the detection of soft tissue tumors, the clinical use has increased remarkably. The cost-effectiveness of this modality, when properly used, has been demonstrated and 18F-FDG-PET should be considered as an early alternative in patient evaluation.
