Project Details
Description
Acute occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) goes with a 90-day mortality rate of 83%. Late diagnosis has been held responsible for this poor prognosis. Recent advances has been shown due to the development of computed tomography technology, whereas no progress has been shown in diagnostic plasma biomarkers for this disease. The epidemiology for the disease is well-known due to the conduction of population-based studies covering the time periods 1970 – 82, and 2000-2006.
The purpose of this application for funding to Swedish Gastroenterology and Hepatology Foundation is to conduct the following works:
1. Evaluate population-based trends in incidence, diagnostics, and prognosis for acute SMA occlusion in the population of Malmö, Sweden.
2. Study differences and similarities in clinical presentation, radiological findings and prognostic factors in acute SMA occlusion and non-occlusive mesenteric ischaemia (NOMI) in Skane University Hospital, Sweden.
3. To analyze clinical and laboratory data from the international, prospective, multicenter study on suspected acute mesenteric arterial occlusion (AMESI Study) to be able to evaluate diagnostic performance of clinical and laboratory data in acute mesenteric arterial occlusion
4. To prospectively evaluate risk factor profile, dietary components and physical activity and incident acute mesenteric ischaemia using data from the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study.
