  • Long-term follow up of workers exposed to solvents
  • 1990

  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Long term occupational exposure to organic solvents may cause adverse effects to the central nervous system. This collaborative study between six Swedish departments of occupational medicine examines the overall prognosis in terms of working capacity, symptoms, and psychometric test performance for individuals occupationally exposed to organic solvents. After re-analyses of the data from an initial clinical investigation of 111 men, the subjects were divided into two subgroups: one group of 65 with symptoms but no impairment on the tests and one group of 46 with toxic encephalopathy (symptoms and test impairment). At least five years after the initial examination the subjects were asked to attend a re-examination that included a structured medical interview and a psychometric investigation. The results indicate that effects on the central nervous system persist even when exposure has ceased. In the group of 46 more men had stopped working and were receiving sickness or early retirement pensions. This group also had reduced activity levels with regard to everyday life, leisure activities, and education or training and more neuropsychiatric symptoms. There was no support for the view that a solvent induced toxic encephalopathy is a progressive disease comparable with presenile dementia such as Alzheimer's disease or Pick's disease. If a worker was removed from exposure when he presented symptoms without signs of impairment in intellectual function recovery was seen in most cases.

  • Renal arteriovenous shunting in rejecting allograft, hydronephrosis, or haemorrhagic hypotension in the rat
  • 1994
  • Ingår i: Nephrology, dialysis, transplantation : official publication of the European Dialysis and Transplant Association - European Renal Association. - : Oxford University Press (OUP). - 1460-2385. ; 9:11, s. 1634-1639

    • We studied the occurrence of arteriovenous (A-V) shunting in three experimental rat models, namely in rejecting allograft kidney, in uni- or bilateral ureteral obstruction, and in haemorrhagic hypotension. Isografted or sham-operated rats served as controls. Radiolabelled microspheres were injected into the renal artery and the increase in the amount of radioactivity in the lungs was considered to reflect A-V shunting in the kidney. In animals exposed to haemorrhage, with a blood pressure not less than 70% of the initial blood pressure, practically no shunting was seen. When animals were bled to a hypotension beyond the autoregulation, A-V shunting occurred inversely correlated to the degree of hypotension. In ureteral obstruction, a less marked but significant increase in shunting of microspheres to the lungs was found after 24 h of unilateral obstruction, irrespective of whether the spheres were injected into the obstructed or the contralateral kidney. Significant A-V shunting during the allograft rejection process was also demonstrated. Histologically, microspheres were found in afferent arterioles less frequently in kidneys with A-V shunting than in controls. These results indicate that A-V shunting is involved in haemorrhagic hypotension, renal graft rejection, and hydronephrosis. In the latter situation A-V shunting is probably regulated by a humoral factor. © 1994 European Dialysis and Transplant Association-European Renal Association.

  • Detection of hepatic metastases in colorectal cancer : A prospective study of laboratory and imaging methods
  • 1993
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Surgery, Acta Chirurgica. - 1102-4151. ; 159:5, s. 275-281
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Objective: To assess and compare the accuracy of imaging methods (ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT), angiography, arterially enhanced CT with computed tomographic arterial portography (CTA)), biochemical analyses, and surgical assessment during the operation, in detecting the presence or absence of hepatic metastases in patients with colorectal cancer. Design: Open study. Setting: University of Lund, Sweden. Subjects: 71 consecutive patients without clinical evidence of liver metastases at the time of the operation for removal of the primary tumour. Interventions: Regular biochemical tests for five to seven years, and CT and US one year after operation in all patients without confirmed metastases. Main outcome measures: Presence or absence of hepatic metastases. Results: Accuracy of surgical assessment, angiography, US, CT and CTA was 90, 77, 80, 82 and 83%, respectively, and corresponding predictive values of a negative test were 87, 75, 77, 80 and 84%. Measurement of bilirubin concentration and hepatic enzyme activities were not helpful, and that of carcinoembryonic antigen had an accuracy of only 70%. Accuracy and predictive values were not improved by combining tests. Conclusion: The accuracy of US, CT or CTA was not good enough to merrit routine use before operations for colorectal cancer. They are potentially valuable for monitoring progress at follow up, but this remains to be confirmed.
