  1. 6. Oxidative stress and inflammation as a response to glucose exposure and dialysis

    Författare :Anna Bryland; Njurmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glucose; glucose degradation products; dialysis; diabetes; oxidative stress; inflammation; endothelial dysfunction;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract: The main player of this thesis is glucose, both on a cellular level and with a clinical approach. Too much or wrongly handled glucose contributes to increased inflammation and oxidative stress, which is reinforced by the negative influences of uraemia and dialysis treatment. LÄS MER

  2. 7. The effects of haemodialysis and metabolic acidosis on protein metabolism

    Författare :Erland Löfberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :haemodialysis; metabolic acidosis; skeletal muscle; protein metabolism; amino acids; branched-chain amino acids; flooding dose; ribosomes; glucocorticoids;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic renal failure and uraemia are characterised by gradual loss of renal function with an accumulation of metabolic and toxic waste products as well as disturbances in several organs and hormone functions. Two factors affect the catabolism in renal failure - i.e., the haemodialysis procedure and metabolic acidosis. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Small artery dysfunction : focus on preeclampsia and end-stage renal disease

    Författare :Natallia Luksha; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :resistance arteries;

    Sammanfattning : Background: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) and preeclampsia (PE) are associated with high risk of cardiovascular events and characterized by endothelial dysfunction. Resistance arteries are actively involved in the control of blood pressure and blood flow to the target organs. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Clinical aspects of Arteriovenous fistula use in a haemodialysis population. Results based on retrospective and internventional studies

    Författare :Anna Wärme; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Haemodialysis; AV Fistula; Far infrared; Erythropoietin;

    Sammanfattning : When a patient suffers from end stage renal disease, the vascular access becomes the lifeline to perform regular haemodialysis (HD) treatment. The recommended first choice is the surgically created native Arteriovenous Fistula (AVF). The AVF is exposed for repeated needling when connecting the dialysis machine several times a week. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Lipoprotein lipase activity is reduced in dialysis patients. Studies on possible causal factors

    Författare :Dana Mahmood; Bernd Stegmayr; Gunilla Olivecrona; Per Ola Attman; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Haemodialysis; lipoprotein lipase; ANGPTL3; ANGPTL4; citrate dialysate; dialyzer.; medicin; Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in patients on chronic haemodialysis (HD). One main contributing factor is renal dyslipidaemia, characterized by an impaired catabolism of triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins with accumulation of atherogenic remnant particles. LÄS MER
