Résumé :

År 2020 har varit ett annorlunda år för samhället i stort, inte minst för den svenska högskolan. Coronapandemin har inneburit stora utmaningar för högskolans alla verksamheter och kommer att göra så ett bra tag framöver. Men i en tid av osäkerhet och förändring har högskolesektorn visat prov på stor flexibilitet och anpassningsförmåga. En snabb övergång till digital undervisning följdes av en ökad studenttillströmning och omfattande utbyggnader av högskolan, som inneburit ett stort tryck på högskolans alla verksamheter. I tider av ekonomisk osäkerhet och ökad arbetslöshet har högskolan historiskt ofta fungerat som en krockkudde. Så även den här gången. En permanent utbyggnad av högskolans utbildning inleddes redan under våren 2020 tillsammans med tillfälliga resurstillskott för sommarkurser och behörighetsgivande utbildningar. Allt för att lärosätena snabbt skulle kunna ta emot unga personer som riskerade att hamna i arbetslöshet och ge personer som blivit permitterade möjlighet att vidareutbilda sig under permitteringstiden. Det livslånga lärandet har också ytterligare aktualiserats under coronapandemin. Att det finns goda möjligheter att ställa om genom utbildning är viktigt både för individer och samhället. Här spelar universitet och högskolor en central roll. Deras utbildning svarar för viktiga delar i samhällets kompetensförsörjning. Den tillgodoser både arbetsmarknadens behov av kvalificerad arbetskraft inom olika sektorer och individens strävan efter kunskap, bildning och utveckling. I vissa sektorer finns en stor brist på högskoleutbildad personal, och det är en utmaning för lärosätena att lyckas rekrytera studenter till dessa utbildningar. Internationalisering genomsyrar på många olika sätt högskolans verksamhet. Både i utbildning på grundnivå, avancerad nivå och forskarnivå utgör inresande studenter och utländska doktorander en stor andel av nybörjarna. Men under höstterminen 2020 kom långt färre inresande studenter på grundnivå och avancerad nivå till Sverige för att studera. En liknande effekt syns ännu inte på utbildningen på forskarnivå. Precis som året innan var andelen utländska doktorandnybörjare 40 procent. För helåret 2020 fortsatte dessutom trenden med ökande intäkter från betalande studenter, om än i något långsammare takt, trots coronapandemin. Detta kan tyda på att vi ännu inte fullt ut ser effekterna av pandemin i uppgifterna som presenteras i denna rapport, och att det fortfarande är för tidigt att se de långsiktiga effekterna på högskolans internationalisering.

Résumé :

Neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (NTOS) is an uncommon cause of chronic arm pain and numbness but should not be missed. It can lead to chronic pain and disability. Symptoms of NTOS are often aggravated by arm exertion and elevation and tend to occur after exercise rather than activity. A thorough diagnostic evaluation is key, which includes provocative tests, imaging, electromyography/nerve conduction study, and diagnostic injections. Electromyography/nerve conduction study (EMG/NCS) are recommended for NTOS as it is important to exclude an entrapment neuropathy or cervical radiculopathy that may be misdiagnosed as NTOS. EMG/NCS is usually normal in NTOS, however, in severe presentations, the EMG/NCS pattern is most consistent with a lower trunk plexopathy. Treatment options of NTOS are also described in this chapter.

Résumé :

A number of nutritional causes of peripheral neuropathy have been identified. Patients who have gastrointestinal disease or who have undergone bariatric surgery are at risk, although frequently the specific cause is not ascertained. Vitamin B12 and thiamine deficiencies are the most common causes in bariatric surgery patients. The classic clinical picture of Vitamin B12 deficiency is a myelopathy with a concomitant peripheral neuropathy. Thiamine deficiency is the classic triad of mental status changes, opthalmoplegia, and ataxia. Copper deficiency is often unrecognized. Its presentation can be similar to Vitamin B12 deficiency. It is important that bariatric surgery patients receive continual follow up of their nutritional status and adherence to vitamin supplementation. Alcohol may cause a peripheral neuropathy through nutritional deficiency or perhaps direct toxic effects. Other deficiency states are discussed.

Résumé :

Dyspepsia is a term encompassing several symptoms of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including acid reflux, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain or discomfort. Up to 40% of the population suffer with dyspepsia; 5%–10% will consult their GP, and 1% will undergo endoscopic assessment. Over-the-counter medications cost patients £100 million annually, and prescribed drugs cost the NHS over £463 million annually. There is a steady rise in incidence with increasing age. Helicobacter pylori is present in 40% of the UK population, with many individuals acquiring the infection in childhood and remaining asymptomatic. It has been associated with peptic ulcer disease and distal gastric cancer. This chapter covers the approach to diagnosis, key diagnostic tests, therapies, and prognosis as well as dealing with uncertainty when it comes to the initial diagnosis.

Résumé :

Throughout history, symptoms of nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhoea, bloating, and pain have been described in relation to diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal disorders that give rise to these symptoms are broadly characterized as one of two types: structural or functional. Although structural diseases can be easily identified, and even cured by means of medical or surgical intervention, functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) remain a medical enigma. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) constitutes one of the 40 or so conditions under the FGIDs umbrella. It is characterized by abdominal pain and altered bowel habits and has an estimated prevalence of 5%–20% in the Western world. Around 40 years ago, little was known about the mechanism behind visceral pain in IBS. Ritchie’s landmark study was one of the first to begin to elucidate some of the mechanisms involved (and therefore provide some insight into putative treatments) in the difficult area of FGIDs.

Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy is the most common primary glomerulonephritis. It runs a slow and sometimes relentless clinical course with consequent end-stage renal failure in 35–40% of patients 25–30 years after first clinical presentation. The pathology is characterized by deposition of macromolecular (polymeric) IgA1 in the glomerular mesangium, proliferation of mesangial cells, increased synthesis of extracellular matrix, and infiltration of macrophage, monocytes, and T cells.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Haemodialysis is a renal replacement treatment, an ‘artificial kidney’ that performs some of the functions of the normal kidney. It is an inelegant device, providing only a fraction of native kidney’s ability to filter toxins from the blood, but with none of the responsiveness to volume, fine feedback control to regulate solute concentrations, or endocrine functions of the healthy organ. Conventional haemodialysis performed three times a week for 4 hours per treatment filters the blood for only 12 of 168 hours each week, and removes less than 10 per cent of small solutes like urea than does the normal kidney. It is therefore not surprising that haemodialysis patients suffer high morbidity and mortality. A dialysis patient’s expected remaining lifetime is substantially shorter than a comparable person with normal kidney function. For example, a woman aged 40–44 years old in the general population can expect on average 40 more years of life, but if she is on dialysis her life expectancy is only 8.1 years. She is also more likely to have co-morbid disease, including hypertension, cardiovascular disease, metabolic bone disease, anaemia, sepsis, depression, malnutrition and inflammation, and physical and cognitive impairment.

Résumé :

Despite the advances in surgical techniques, very few ACHD patients have a truly curative procedure, with the majority being at lifelong risk of complications, including ventricular dysfunction, arrhythmias, and premature death. Ventricular dysfunction, leading to heart failure, remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality, with some studies showing that it accounts for up to 40% of deaths in adults with CHD. This chapter discusses drug therapy, transplantation, and end-of-life care in ACHD.

This chapter reviews normal blood function and disorders of haemopoiesis. Blood consists of cells of three main types, suspended in plasma. The cellular component comprises about 40%–50% of the total volume and consists of red cells (erythrocytes), white cells (leucocytes), and platelets. Blood cells are formed from progenitor cells in the bone marrow by haemopoiesis, a process of proliferation and differentiation. Failure of haemopoiesis usually results from damage to proliferating marrow cells by cytotoxic drugs or radiation, haemopoietic malignancy, or a combination of the two.

Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii are the principal pathogenic species within the genus Cryptococcus and the causative agents of cryptococcosis. Although rare, the incidence of infection due to other Cryptococcus species previously regarded as saprophytes, has increased over the last 40 years. Irrespective of the infecting species, infections are acquired following inhalation from the environment, causing localised or disseminated disease. The severity of disease is dependent on the organism’s virulence factors and the host’s immune response, and the clinical manifestations are indistinguishable. Accurate identification of the pathogenic species relies on rDNA sequencing

The presence of bilateral iliac aneurysms in this population is common. This chapter describes two techniques to manage unilateral or bilateral common iliac artery aneurysms with preservation of the hypogastric artery: use of an Endologix AFX stent graft with snorkel placement and use of two bifurcated Gore Excluder stent grafts.

Other electromyogram (EMG) clips are embedded in other chapters. Firing frequency of the motor unit potentials can be calculated and it is increased in denervation. Observation for 40–60 seconds may be needed to detect infrequent fasciculations after needle placement. Mixed short and long duration is a features of chronic myopathy and can be confused with chronic denervation.

Résumé :

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) and aortic aneurysms are common diseases which show an increasing prevalence and incidence. From community-based trials assessing ankle–brachial indices, 2–4% of the general population have been shown to be affected by PAD, which increases up to 15% in those above 70 years of age. About 30–40% of the in-hospital cases with PAD have critical limb ischaemia and suffer from a 1-year mortality of 20–40%. Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) also show a relatively high prevalence of about 1–2% in the general population as found by large-scale, systematic duplex screening. Of these, about 5% come to hospital admittance with a ruptured AAA which is still associated with an in-hospital mortality of up to 50%. The prevalence of thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) was reported to be at about 0.16–0.34% in selected subgroups of the general population. The incident cases of TAAs have risen from 10/100,000 cases in the late 1980s up to about 17/100,000 cases in the first decade of this millennium. It is noteworthy that PAD and aortic aneurysms as well as their associated co-morbidities remain in many cases underdiagnosed and undertreated. This leads to a high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality which could not be obviously markedly reduced in the recent decades. Since nearly all vascular disorders are systemic diseases, not only the specific vessel bed which leads to a presentation should be assessed but also all other possible vascular manifestations should be thoroughly examined to reduce adverse events.

Résumé :

Parenchymal intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) affects several million people in the world each year, most of whom reside in developing countries. ICH accounts for 10-40% of strokes and is the least treatable form of stroke with a 30-day mortality of 30-55%, with half of these deaths occurring within the first few days of onset. . High blood pressure is both a causal and prognostic factor for ICH, with early control of hypertension being the only medical treatment which may improve recovery and the level of residual functioning. The role of surgery remains controversial. Management is largely supportive and aimed at reducing further brain injury and preventing complications.

Résumé :

Breast cancer is the commonest female cancer, with a lifetime risk of approximately 1 in 9. There are approximately 40 000 new cases and 11 000 deaths from the disease in England and Wales each year. Breast cancer is an adenocarcinoma which arises from the glandular tissue of the breast. Its etiology is complex, with hormonal, genetic, and modifiable lifestyle factors all involved in developing the disease. Prognosis is related to the anatomical extent of the cancer, and other factors. This chapter discusses the definition and etiology of breast cancer, as well as its typical symptoms, less common symptoms, demographics, natural history, complications, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.

Résumé :

Defective lipid catabolic pathways are involved in numerous inherited metabolic diseases such as lysosomal storage diseases and peroxisome biogenesis disorders. We recently described a new classification of a rapidly growing group of inherited metabolic disorders involving biosynthesis and remodeling of complex lipids including phospholipids and sphingolipids. The remarkable progress achieved over the last decade in high throughput gene sequencing and in lipid analysis technologies have enabled the description of more than 40 diseases linked to defects in enzymes involved in these pathways. Some of these defects present in infancy or childhood but most of them are diagnosed in adolescence or adulthood. In this review we focus on those with adult presentation.

Résumé :

As of 2010, the global population has transited from rural-based to urban-based settlement patterns. While urbanization poses much pressure to city residents, ‘rural living’ continues to represent more than 40% of the way our global citizens will be living for the coming century. This chapter provides some concluding remarks for Building Bottom-up Health and Disaster Risk Reduction Programmes, highlighting the importance of building bottom-up health and disaster risk reduction programmes in rural Asia that strengthen resilience in rural communities, and how careful planning, coordination, and contribution from international bodies, national governments, local communities, and the volunteer sector are also required.

Résumé :

This chapter provides an overview of the state of implementation outcome measurement in general and specific to the cancer control continuum. A novel conceptualization of the timing of implementation outcome assessment is presented as it pertains to the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, and Sustainment model. An environmental scan revealed 40 measures across eight implementation outcomes in use across the cancer control continuum. The quality of measures in use is either poor or not yet established. Five key measurement challenges are broached, with recommendations for resolving them provided wherever possible. The chapter closes with emerging advances in implementation outcome, context, and process measurement and a list of resources for the field.

Résumé :

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common and heterogeneous complex trait. Twin heritability is 35%–40%, perhaps higher in severe/recurrent cases. Adverse life events (particularly during childhood) increase risk. Current evidence suggests some overlap in genetic factors among MDD, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. Large genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are now proving successful. Polygenic effects of common SNPs are substantial. Findings implicate genes with effects on synaptic development and function, including two obesity-associated genes (NEGR1 and OLFM4), but not previous “candidate genes.” It can now be expected that larger GWAS samples will produce additional associations that shed new light on MDD genetics.

Résumé :

The compulsions seen in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) often reflect a state of elevated fear and anxiety; ritualistic behaviors and/or avoidance may arise as a strategy to manage this anxiety. Treatment for OCD can include exposure-based therapies that attempt to extinguish compulsions. Exposure with response prevention(ERP) is an effective therapy, but approximately 40% of patients fail ERP or drop out. This chapter reviews the role of the medial prefrontal and orbitofrontal cortices in the extinction of conditioned fear and avoidance, in both rodents and humans. Special emphasize is given to how the rodent literature can provide new insights into the pathophysiology and treatment of OCD.

Résumé :

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating psychiatric disorder with an estimated genetic component accounting for 30%–40% of the variance contributing to risk for the disease. This chapter starts with a review of the biological hypotheses and related genetic mechanisms currently proposed to be associated with PTSD and trauma-related disorders. It will follow with a description of the state-of-the-art on the methodologies and their application to map genetic loci and identify biomarkers associated with PTSD. Finally, we will review the latest results from genome-wide association studies of genetic variants as well as those derived from the emerging fields of epigenetics and gene expression.

Résumé :

Foremost in the history of obstetric anaesthesia was the introduction of inhalational analgesia by James Simpson in 1847, first with ether and then chloroform. Nitrous oxide was first used in obstetrics in 1880. Neuraxial anaesthesia in obstetrics began with spinal block by Oskar Kreis in 1900, and within 25 years included pudendal, caudal, and paracervical blocks. From 1902 there was a vogue for ‘twilight sleep’, which remained in use until the 1950s. Spinal anaesthesia only became popular with the advent of procaine in 1905; favour declined in the United Kingdom from 1948 and did not return until 40 years later. In 1930, Aburel described the pain pathways of labour. Continuous caudal analgesia for labour was popularized from 1942; it was superseded by the lumbar epidural approach in the 1960s. The arrival of lidocaine in 1950 was a major advance. Another important event in the 1960s was the elucidation of the supine hypotensive syndrome of late pregnancy. In the 1940s, intravenous barbiturates became popular. Mendelson published on the acid aspiration syndrome in 1946. It took 40 years to establish a reliable system of prevention, including fasting, antacids, and rapid sequence induction. This developed piecemeal, aided by recommendations from the British Confidential Enquiries into Maternal Deaths reports beginning in 1957. Neuraxial anaesthesia advanced: 24-hour epidural services (1960s), bupivacaine (1970s), epidural opioids (1980s), use of low-concentration bupivacaine with fentanyl mixtures, patient-controlled epidural and combined spinal–epidural analgesia (1990s), and pencil-point spinal needles (1990s). From the 1980s obstetric anaesthetists have assumed key roles in management of labour, preeclampsia/eclampsia, major haemorrhage, and perioperative care.

Résumé :

Outcomes of burn patients have significantly improved over the last two decades. A recent study in The Lancet showed that a burn size of over 60% total body surface area (TBSA) burned is now recognized as being associated with high risks; a decade ago similar risks resulted from a 40% TBSA burned. Similar data have been obtained in severely-burned adults and the elderly. This chapter discusses current standards, recent evidence, and future developments in burn care to improve outcomes of these patients. Critical components in the management of patients with burns are early adequate resuscitation, recognition and management of airway burns and appropriate treatment of the different stages of burn care—prehospital, early, and late management.

Résumé :

More than 40 inherited metabolic disorders cause heart disease, including fatty acid oxidation defects, glycogen storage disorders, lysosomal storage disorders, peroxisomal diseases, mitochondrial cytopathies, organic acidemias, aminoacidopathies, and congenital disorders of glycosylation. The pattern and severity of cardiac involvement varies between disorders but includes congenital heart diseases, heart muscle diseases, arrhythmias and sudden death, and heart failure. The majority of IMDs are multisystem diseases, but in a few cases cardiac disease is the predominant clinical feature and the main determinant of prognosis. For an increasing number of IEMs there are specific therapies designed to treat or ameliorate the effects of the underlying metabolic defect. In some cases, these therapies have an important effect on the progression of cardiac disease.

Résumé :

Cocaine is a highly addictive, illegal drug with sympathomimetic properties that is responsible for nearly 500,000 emergency room visits per year. In at least one study, nearly 40% of trauma surgery patients and 1% of patients presenting for elective surgery tested positive for recent cocaine use. Given these numbers, anesthesiology providers must understand the physiological effects of cocaine and be able to safely manage these patients in both the intraoperative and perioperative phases. Anesthetic management of cocaine-using patients should focus on avoiding hemodynamic extremes and minimizing the ischemic consequences of vasospasm. This chapter reviews the basic pharmacology of cocaine, the physiologic effects of cocaine use, and the anesthetic management of the cocaine-using patient.

Résumé :

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint condition worldwide. It can impair mobility and result in significant disability, need for total joint replacement, and healthcare utilization. OA is unusual in those younger than 40 years, then commonly the result of an underlying metabolic disorder or a prior joint injury. Some geographic and racial/ethnic variation exists in the prevalence and incidence of OA for specific joints, likely due to variation in genetics, anatomy, and environmental exposures. Many OA outcomes vary by socioeconomic status and other social factors. This chapter describes demographic and social determinants of knee, hip, and hand OA, including how these factors impact radiographic and symptomatic OA, OA-related pain and function, and its treatment.
