1. 16. The effects of spinal implant wear debris particles

   Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

   Författare :Cecilia Thomas; Eslam El Ammarin; [2021]
   Nyckelord :spine; implant; wear; debris; particles; ryggimplantat; implantatpartiklar; partiklar; implantat;

   Sammanfattning : The goal of this literature study was to study the effects of spinal implant wear debris particles on the body in general, and on microglia cells in particular. The method of the literature study was searching for scientific peer-reviewed papers on the topic.  Spinal implants are used to fix spinal problems such as deformities or injuries. LÄS MER

3. 17. Studying American Football with Finite Element Analysis and Video Analysis

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

   Författare :Daniel Sliwinski; [2021]
   Nyckelord :Medical Engineering; Helmet to Helmet impacts; Helmet to Ground impacts; Finite Element Analysis; Video Analysis; GHBMC; Maximum Principal Strain; American Football; Medicinsk teknik; Hjälm mot hjälm tackling; Hjälm mot mark tackling; Videoanalys; Finite Element analys; GHBMC; Maximum Principal Strain; Amerikansk fotboll;

   Sammanfattning : Head injuries in American football is a serious issue regarding player health which is highly affected by velocity and its direction. Impact location can affect the severity of the head injury in both helmet-to-helmet impacts and helmet-to-ground impacts hence the understanding of concussive outcome from velocities and impact locations must be improved.

4. 18. Specialist nurse’s glycemic control in critically ill patients : A scoping review

   Magister-uppsats, Röda Korsets Högskola

   Författare :Lorena Lucia Papalardo-Werther; Elin Nilsson; [2021]
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Stress induced hyperglycemia is a major global problem in the critical care setting and is strongly associated with adverse outcomes. Glycemic control is a complex task, and while there exist plenty of studies on the appropriate measures of dealing with it, the knowledge about factors influencing Stress induced hyperglycemia is still limited.

   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : SAMMANFATTNING Bakgrund: I Sverige insjuknar 25 000 personer i någon form av demenssjukdom varje år. Symtomen vid demenssjukdomen ter sig olika beroende på vilken eller vilka delar av hjärnan som drabbas. LÄS MER

7. 20. Finite Element Head ModelPersonalization by Mesh Morphing

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Författare :Yann Levin; [2021]
   Nyckelord :Biomechanics; Finite element; Head models; Image Registration; Mesh morphing; Personalization.;

   Sammanfattning : Finite Element (FE) head models are very convenient tools forthe study of Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs) but lack significantanatomical details for the investigation of morphology or age-dependantinjury mechanisms. In this context, the use of deformable registrationalgorithms for the generation of personalized head models is veryconsistent for the development of improved protection systems likehelmets. LÄS MER
