  • Acute pancreatitis - from cellular signalling to complicated clinical course.
  • 2007
  • Ingår i: HPB. - : Elsevier BV. - 1477-2574 .- 1365-182X. ; 9:6, s. 414-420

    • Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common disease that has a mild to moderate course in most cases. During the last decade, a change in diagnostic facilities as well as improved intensive care have influenced both morbidity and mortality in AP. Still, however, a number of controversies and unresolved questions remain regarding AP. These include prognostic factors and how these may be used to improve outcome, diagnostic possibilities, their indications and optimal timing, and the systemic inflammatory reaction (systemic inflammatory response syndrome - SIRS) and its effect on the concomitant course of the disease and potential development of organ failure. The role of the gut has been suggested to be important in severe AP, but has recently been somewhat questioned. Despite extensive research, pharmacological and medical intervention of proven clinical value is scarce. Various aspects on surgical interventions, including endoscopic sphincterotomy, cholecystectomy and necrosectomy, as regards indications and timing, will be reviewed. Last, but not least, are the management of late complications and long-term outcome for patients with especially severe AP.

  • Iatrogenic bile duct injury - a cost analysis.
  • 2008
  • Ingår i: HPB. - : Elsevier BV. - 1477-2574 .- 1365-182X. ; 10:6, s. 416-419

    • Introduction. Iatrogenic bile duct lesions following cholecystectomy represent a feared complication occurring in up to 0.9%. The aim of the present study was to estimate the total cost associated with both minor and major bile duct injuries. Material and methods. Detailed information on 24 consecutive patients, out of which 14 were considered to have minor and 10 patients considered as having major bile duct injury, provided the underlying information that rendered calculations on average individual costs for both groups of injuries. Results and discussion. Calculating individual costs for minor and major bile duct injuries with actual incidences of cholecystectomies performed and the incidence of iatrogenic bile duct injury demonstrated that the total costs, including in-hospital cost, sick leave and loss of production, were substantial. For the management of minor bile duct injuries costs were within the range of 136,787-159,585 EUR and for the management of major bile duct injuries from 336,903-449,204 EUR per million inhabitants and year. The total costs for the management of all types of bile duct injuries were thus within the range of 473,690-608,789 EUR per million inhabitants annually for the society.

  • Immunomodulation in surgical practise
  • 2006
  • Ingår i: HPB. - : Elsevier BV. - 1477-2574 .- 1365-182X. ; 8:2, s. 116-123
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background. Immunomodulation may represent a potential way to improve surgical outcome. These types of interventions should be based on detailed knowledge of the underlying mechanisms involved. The aim of the present review is to summarize some experience on the acute phase response, potential ways of intervention and experiences from critical illness and HPB disease. Discussion. Mechanisms of the acute phase response are discussed including the individual parameters and local changes that take part. Mechanisms involved in failure of the gut barrier are presented and include changes in gut barrier permeability, effects on gut-associated immunocompetent cells, and systemic implications. As examples of HPB disease, mechanisms of the acute phase response and potential ways of intervention in obstructive jaundice and acute pancreatitis are discussed. Nutritional pharmacology and lessons learned from immunomodulation and immunonutrition in critical illness and major abdominal surgery, including upper GI and HPB surgery, are referred to. Overall, immunomodulation represents a potential tool to improve results but requires a thorough mapping of underlying mechanisms in order to achieve individualized treatment or prevention based on patients' specific needs.

  • Effects on blood pressure after treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea with a mandibular advancement appliance - a three-year follow-up
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Journal of Oral Rehabilitation. - : Wiley. - 1365-2842 .- 0305-182X. ; 36:10, s. 719-725
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • P>Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a highly prevalent sleep disorder; it affects 4% of males and 2% of females. Hypertension has been shown to occur in 28-57% of OSA patients. There is a steady increase in evidence linking OSA to long-term cardiovascular morbidity including hypertension. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether mandibular advancement oral appliance (OA) treatment of OSA affects the patient's blood pressure (BP) in a 3-month and a 3-year perspective. Twenty-nine consecutive patients, with verified OSA defined as apnoea index (AI) > 5 per hour and/or apnoea/hypopnoea index (AHI) >= 10 per hour, received an OA as treatment. BP was measured on three occasions; before treatment, after 3 months of treatment, and after 3 years of treatment. BP was measured with an electronic blood pressure monitor. The treatment effect of OA was measured after 3 months by repeated somnographic registration while the patient was wearing the OA. A treatment response was defined as AHI < 10; this was achieved in 25 of 29 patients (86%) at the 3-month evaluation. Significant reductions in blood pressure were attained between baseline and the 3-month evaluation (P < 0 center dot 001) and these changes remained at the 3-year follow-up in both systolic BP of -15 center dot 4 +/- 18 center dot 7 mm Hg and diastolic BP of -10 center dot 3 +/- 10 center dot 0 mm Hg. OA therapy reduced blood pressure in both a 3-month and a 3-year perspective in patients with OSA.

  • A global perspective on changes in the burden of caries and periodontitis : implications for dentistry.
  • 2007
  • Ingår i: Journal of Oral Rehabilitation. - : Wiley. - 1365-2842 .- 0305-182X. ; 34:12, s. 872-906; discussion 940
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The structure and contents of most oral health care systems and the contents of dental curricula reflect a deep-rooted tradition for attempting to cure oral diseases by refined technological means. However, better oral health conditions for the world's populations necessitate the application of up-to-date scientific knowledge to control the major oral diseases. This review points out that not only should the structure and contents of oral health care delivery systems be based on state-of-the-art knowledge about the biology of the oral diseases; they must also take into account the trends for change in caries and periodontal diseases within and between populations, and acknowledge the impact of changes in treatment philosophies for these trends. The oral disease profiles for populations in low- and high-income countries are briefly described, and it is concluded that the rapidly changing disease profiles observed in high-income countries necessitate re-thinking of the future role and organization of dentistry in such countries. The priorities for low- and middle-income countries must be to avoid repeating the mistakes made in the high-income countries. Instead, these societies might take advantage of setting priorities based on a population-based common risk factor approach. If such an approach is adopted, the training of personnel with oral health care competence must be rethought. The authors suggest three different cadres of dental care providers to be considered for an approach that allows health care planners in different populations around the world to prioritize appropriate oral health care with due respect for the socio-economic conditions prevailing.

  • Primary patency of percutaneously inserted self-expanding metallic stents in patients with malignant biliary obstruction
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: HPB : the official journal of the International Hepato Pancreato Biliary Association. - : Elsevier BV. - 1365-182X. ; 11:4, s. 358-63
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUND: Effective bile duct drainage is crucial to the health-related quality of life of patients with jaundice caused by obstruction of the bile duct by inoperable malignant tumours. METHODS: All patients who were treated at Uppsala University Hospital, Sweden with percutaneous stenting between 2000 and 2005 were identified retrospectively. Data on the location of the obstruction and type of stent used, date and cause of death and date of stent failure were abstracted from the patients' notes. Stent patency was defined as the duration from the insertion of the stent to the date of failure. In cases in which the cause of death was directly related to failure of the stent, the date of death was defined as the patency endpoint. RESULTS: A total of 64 patients (34 women, 30 men) were identified. Their mean age was 71 years (standard deviation 11 years). The median length of patency was 11.4 months. Stent diameter >10 mm and distal stricture were found to be associated with significantly longer patency time in univariate Cox proportional hazard analysis. In multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis, only location of the stricture was found to be independently and significantly associated with patency time. DISCUSSION: Percutaneous stenting is a good alternative for patients with obstructive jaundice and a life expectancy /=10 mm. However, patency time was found to be lower for hilar tumours.

  • Comparison of pain thresholds and pain tolerance levels between Middle Easterners and Swedes and between genders
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Journal of Oral Rehabilitation. - : Wiley. - 1365-2842 .- 0305-182X. ; 36:4, s. 271-278
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • OBJECTIVE: This study evaluates the presence of culture and gender differences in pain thresholds and pain tolerance levels between Middle Easterners and Swedes. METHODS: Sixty-four healthy individuals, 32 Middle Easterners (16 men and 16 women, mean age: 24.6 +/- 3.4 years) and 32 Swedes (16 men and 16 women, mean age: 24 +/- 3.5 years) participated in the study. Three experimental pain tests were conducted in each participant. Pain thresholds and pain tolerance levels were measured using an algometer (mechanical stimulus), the PainMatcher((R)) (electric stimulus) and cold pressor test (thermal stimulus). RESULTS: While no significant differences in pain thresholds were observed between Middle Easterners and Swedes in algometer and cold pressor tests, differences in pain tolerance levels were significant (P < 0.01 for both tests). All between-culture differences in pain perception, pain threshold and pain tolerance level were non-significant when measured with the PainMatcher. Significant between-gender differences were observed only in pain threshold with the PainMatcher (P < 0.05) and in pain tolerance level with the algometer (P < 0.01) and the PainMatcher (P <0.001). CONCLUSION: This study found significant differences in two out of three pain tolerance level tests - but not pain threshold tests - between the Middle Eastern and Swedish cultures and between genders. These differences were more pronounced between Middle Eastern and Swedish men than between Middle Eastern and Swedish women. Gender differences were more pronounced within the Swedish than the Middle Eastern culture. These findings indicate that culture and gender influence pain experience.

  • Treatment outcome of short- and long-term appliance therapy in patients with TMD of myogenous origin and tension-type headache
  • 2006
  • Ingår i: Journal of Oral Rehabilitation. - : Wiley. - 1365-2842 .- 0305-182X. ; 33:10, s. 713-721
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The aim was to compare the short- and long-term effect of a stabilization appliance with a control appliance in myofascial pain patients suffering from episodic or chronic tension-type headache. Sixty patients (mean age 29 +/- 12 years) with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) of myogenous origin and headache were studied in this prospective controlled study. Seventy-seven per cent of the patients reported episodic and 23% chronic tension-type headache at the start of the study. The 60 patients were randomly assigned to a treatment group (stabilization appliance) or to a control group (control appliance). The patients were interviewed regarding symptoms of headache and myofascial pain and clinically examined for masticatory muscle tenderness. At the 10-week and the 6- and 12-month evaluations of appliance therapy, the treatment outcome of tension-type headache was studied. At the 10-week evaluation, 17 patients dropped-out from the control group by requesting another appliance and receiving a stabilization appliance. Another patient in the control group dropped out later during the trial. In an intent-to-treat analysis, significant differences in improvement of headache between treatment and control groups were found at the follow-ups. A 30% reduction of muscles tender to palpation correlated significantly to improvement of headache at all follow-ups. The stabilization appliance seems to have a positive effect on tension-type headache, both in a short- and in a long-term perspective in patients with TMD with pain of myogenous origin.
