1. 1. The Force of Blood : Epidemiological studies of blood pressure in stroke, atrial fibrillation and primary care

   Författare :Johan-Emil Bager; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; epidemiology; blood pressure; hypertension; stroke; myocardial infarction; atrial fibrillation; anticoagulants; LDL cholesterol; primary health care;

   Sammanfattning : Aim: The overarching aim of this thesis was to investigate the prevalence, temporal trends and associations to cardiovascular outcomes of blood pressure levels in patients in Västra Götaland. Methods and findings: In Study I, Cox regression analysis was used to investigate associations between blood pressure and mortality in 799 patients with acute ischemic stroke who were identified in the quality register of a stroke ward at Sahlgrenska University Hospital.

3. 2. Cholesterol and apolipoprotein E in suicidal behavior

   Författare :Peter Asellus; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Introduction: Low cholesterol has repeatedly been associated with an increased risk of suicidal and violent behavior. The increase in risk is believed to be associated with alterations in serotonergic signaling, which is associated with low cholesterol. LÄS MER

4. 3. Brain cholesterol metabolism : a study of mouse and man

   Författare :Maura Heverin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Alzheimer s Disease; 27-hydroxycholesterol; CYP46A1; cholesterol homeostasis.;

   Sammanfattning : The brain is the most cholesterol rich organ in the body and contains about one quarter of the body's total cholesterol. How this cholesterol and its metabolism affects the complex brain under normal and pathological conditions has been the focus of intense research in recent years due to its possible association with the development or progression of neurodegeneration.

5. 4. Flux of cholesterol, oxysterols and plant sterols across the blood-brain barrier and metabolic consequences

   Författare :Ahmed Saeed; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Brain is the cholesterol-richest organ and contains one fourth of the total body cholesterol. The majority of brain cholesterol is present in myelin that forms myelin sheathes around neuronal axons. This large pool of cholesterol present in brain is separated from body cholesterol by the blood brain barrier (BBB). LÄS MER

7. 5. Risk factors for fractures - a link between metabolic bone disease and cardiovascular disease

   Författare :Penelope Trimpou; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Risk factors; General population; Physical activity; Sex hormones; Cholesterol; Stroke; Fracture;

   Sammanfattning : Introduction: Fractures and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are a burden to society, as they result in high morbidity and mortality in both men and women. Aim: The aim was to study prospectively modifiable risk factors for fractures in the general population and to possibly identify a link between metabolic bone disease and CVD. LÄS MER
