Experimental porcine models of retinal ischemia
… angiography and conventional angiography. The porcine model of pressure-induced retinal ischaemia resulted in multifocal ERG changes typical of retinal ischaemia although there may be a confounding problem of pressure-induced damage. Multifocal ERG may be a useful tool to evaluate retinal …

Pharmacological interventions against myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury
… reduce myocardial infarct size in different porcine models of myocardial ischaemia and reperfusion. Furthermore, to examine the distribution of the opioid receptor subtypes in the porcine heart, and to investigate how this expression is affected by ischaemia and reperfusion. Methods: …

LUCAS - Lund University Cardiopulmonary Assist System
… was to study cardiac arrest using different porcine models of ventricular fibrillation. Four hypotheses were formulated: 1. LUCAS-CPR is superior to manual CPR regarding coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). 2. Hypothermic LUCAS-CPR is superior to …

Evaluating Immunotoxicity of Quaternary Ammonium Compounds
… in cell lines and vaginal inflammation in porcine models; but have not been evaluated for developmental immunotoxicity. We assessed immunotoxicity in-vitro with J774A.1 murine macrophage cell line by analyzing cytokine production and phagocytosis; and evaluated developmental immunotoxicity …

Left Atrial Posterior Wall Isolation in the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation
… may reduce risks and experiments on porcine models described in this thesis demonstrate how this is possible and provide a future avenue for research and development. A technique is also described for checking the LAPWI lesion set via the use of an oesophageal pacing electrode. …

Development and evaluation summaries of a percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) surgical simulator
… methods, such as the use of cadavers, and porcine models (pigs) fall short of providing the realistic, real-time feedback necessary for mastering complex procedures. Virtual reality (VR) simulators with haptics offer a significant improvement, delivering immersive and interactive …

Characterisation of Host- Parasite- Microbiota Interactions that Drive Hatching in Trichuris Species
… Trichuriasis has been studied in murine and porcine models of infection, with Trichuris muris and Trichuris suis respectively; revealing the role of the host intestinal microbiota in inducing hatching of whipworm eggs. However, the mechanisms behind the interactions between Trichuris species …

Engineering scaffold and soluble cues for cell-instruction
… of granulocyte colony stimulating factor in porcine models. Although the hydrogel system was only tested with bovine serum albumin and granulocyte colony stimulating factor, we expect this customizable and user-friendly platform to be readily applied to other cytokines. The separate …

Mechanisms of Improved Renal Function Following Normothermic Ex-vivo Kidney Perfusion Preservation of Grafts Severely Damaged by Prolonged Warm Ischemia
Normothermic ex-vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) is an emerging technique for renal graft preservation. We investigated whether NEVKP could improve early function of severely injured donation-after-cardiovascular death (DCD) grafts to reduce the incidence of delayed graft function (DGF). First, we …
