1. 16. Nutrition and energy expenditure in women with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

   Författare :Nighat Farooqi; Thomas Sandström; Frode Slinde; Lena Håglin; Tommy Cederholm; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Energy expenditure and women; Women and COPD; Nutrition and women; lungmedicin; Lung Medicine;

   Sammanfattning : AimThe overall objective of this thesis was to increase the knowledge and validate methods for assessment of total daily energy expenditure (TEE), energy requirement and energy intake (EI) in women with COPD. We also investigated the relationship of BMI with clinical characteristics of COPD in a population-based study. LÄS MER

3. 17. Hormone-Sensitive Lipase, new roles for an old enzyme

   Författare :Ola Hansson; diabetes och endokrinologi Genomik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diabetes; Vitamin A; Inflammation; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Medicin människa och djur ; Metabolism; Hormone-Sensitive Lipase; Proteomics; Obesity; White adipose tissue; Skeletal muscle;

   Sammanfattning : Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) has a wide tissue distribution with the highest expression found in white adipose tissue (WAT). HSL also has a unique ability to hydrolyze a large panel of substrates including acylglycerols, cholesteryl esters and retinyl esters. HSL is potentially a new drug target for the treatment of obesity and type II diabetes. LÄS MER

4. 18. Effects of dietary fibre on the human metabolism and metabolome

   Författare :Anna Johansson Persson; Tillämpad biokemi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; arabinoxylan; b-glucan; dietary fibre; inflammation; LC-MS; metabolomics; oat; pectin; postprandial response; randomised controlled trial; rye; sugar beet fibre;

   Sammanfattning : It is well-known that dietary fibre can have a positive effect on the development of lifestyle-dependent diseases such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. However, the effect may be different for different kinds of fibre and different sub-populations at risk. LÄS MER

5. 19. Quantification of Fat Content and Fatty Acid Composition Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

   Författare :Pernilla Peterson; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MRI; fat quantification; water fat imaging; chemical shift; skeletal muscle; fat reference; bipolar gradient; fatty acid composition; relaxation;

   Sammanfattning : In obesity and several other disease scenarios, the measurement of fat accumulation in various organs and tissues has become a sought-after technique in clinical diagnostics and research. Especially, quantitative and non-invasive techniques which also provide images of accumulated fat throughout the body would be valuable. LÄS MER

7. 20. Genetic Factors Contributing to Hypertension. With Emphasis on Hypertension in Type 2 Diabetes

   Författare :Kristina Bengtsson Boström; diabetes och endokrinologi Genomik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Endokrinologi; sekretion; diabetologi; Endocrinology; secreting systems; diabetology; primary care; genetics; Hypertension; type 2 diabetes;

   Sammanfattning : The causes of hypertension (HT) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are mainly unknown, but they arise from interplay between several genetic and environmental factors. The aim of this thesis was to investigate whether polymorphisms in putative candidate genes for HT increase the susceptibility to HT and/or T2DM. LÄS MER
