  1. 1. Neuroimmune Interactions of Enteric Neurons and Mast Cells: Friends or Foes?

    Författare :Elin Sand; Neurogastroenterologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; enteric neurons; ischemia; VIP; mast cells; CRF;

    Sammanfattning : Psychological distress or physical strain lead to reduced blood flow in the intestine since other organs are prioritised. One aim of this thesis was to investigate how ischemia followed by reperfusion affects the large intestine and the enteric nervous system (ENS). LÄS MER

    Författare :Louise Nordfors; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :adipose tissue; BMI; chronic renal failure CRF ; gene expression; in situ hybridization; leptin; obesity; peritoneal dialysis PD ; single nucleotide polymorphism SNP ; UCP2; UCP2-polymorphism;

    Sammanfattning : Obesity, which increases the risk of developing serious medical disorders, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, is threatening to become a global epidemic, meaning escalating healthcare costs for society and reduced quality of life for the individual. Thus, there is a large unmet need for improved preventive strategies and effective treatments. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Endothelium-Dependent Vasodilation and Oxidative Stress in Chronic Renal Failure

    Författare :Margus Annuk; Ola Samuelson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; endothelium; oxidative stress; chronic renal failure; L-arginine; diclofenac; erythropoietin; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Internal Medicine; invärtesmedicin;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of death in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). Endothelial function and oxidative stress (OS) have previously been shown to be important in the pathogenesis of CVD. In this thesis, the endothelium-dependent vasodilatation (EDV) and OS were investigated in the patients with CRF. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Gastrointestinal symptoms in chronic renal failure. Prevalence and pathophysiological mechanisms

    Sammanfattning : Chronic renal failure (CRF) has a varying etiology and is characterised by an increasing accumulation of toxic metabolic waste products in the blood. Malnutrition is a common finding in uraemic patients and is regarded as a marker for morbidity and mortality. Many factors, including gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, lead to malnutrition in CRF.
