  1. 1. Cardiovascular and metabolic control in obese children and adolescents

    Författare :Frida Dangardt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :obesity; children; atherosclerosis; omega-3 fatty acids; ultrasound; insulin;

    Sammanfattning : Childhood obesity is an emerging risk factor for disease and mortality worldwide. The cardiovascular consequences and prevention thereof need to be further investigated. Exercise and weight loss are well examined and effective in the prevention of cardiovascular risk, but warrant well motivated patients with strong social support. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Heart rate variability and vascular function in healthy subjects and in patients with insulindependent (Type 1) diabetes mellitus

    Författare :Kerstin Jensen-Urstad; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :atherosclerosis; autonomic nervous system; blood-glucose control; Holter ECG; heart rate variability; insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; population-study; ultrasound; vascular endothelium.;

    Sammanfattning : The incidence of atherosclerosis parallels the decreasing function of the autonomic nervous system. Both atherosclerosis and autonomic dysfunction are common in patients with diabetes mellitus. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker (AT₁ receptor blocker) candesartan cilexetil on systemic and renal haemodynamics in hypertensive patients

    Författare :Katarina Fridman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Established primary hypertension is primarily characterised by elevated peripheral resistance and an increase in renal vascular resistance. Antagonism of angiotensin II may be a particularly relevant intervention in this condition, as angiotensin II is known to act both as a powerful vasoconstrictor and as a stimulus to vascular hyperthrophy.

  5. 4. Sympathetic function in cardiac disorders.Upon cardio-renal sympathetic activity and effects of nitroglycerin in human heart failure

    Författare :Magnus Petersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :heart failure; renovascular hypertension; sympathetic nervous system; noradrenaline; mortality; renal circulation; cardiovascular physiology; baroreflex; nitroglycerin;

    Sammanfattning : This study explores pathophysiological mechanisms and prognostic implications of sympathetic activation in patients with atherosclerotic renovascular hypertension (RVH) and with chronic heart failure (CHF). Hitherto, it is unknown whether cardiac sympathetic activation is present in patients with RVH, the presence of which could relate to the increased cardiovascular mortality observed in this disorder.
