    Sammanfattning : Metbolic disorders such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, liver lipid disorders and metabolic syndrome are increasing rapidly and have largely been attributed to genetic background and changes in diet, exercise and aging. However, there is now considerable evidence showing that other environmental factors, including environmental chemicals, may contribute to the rapid increase in the incidence of these metabolic diseases.

  2. 42. Role of immune mediators in metabolic syndrome and atherosclerosis

    Författare :Daniela Strodthoff; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Obesity is increasingly becoming a problem worldwide. Both location and metabolic activity of visceral and subcutaneous white adipose tissue (WAT) differ. Visceral fat is highly vascularized resulting in increased blood supply and increased infiltration of inflammatory immune cells such as macrophages, T cells and even B cells. LÄS MER

  3. 43. Muscle Morphology and the Insulin Resistance Syndrome : A Population-Based Study of 70 Year-Old-Men in Uppsala

    Författare :Anu Hedman; Stevo Julius; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Muscle morphology; fiber distribution; capillary density; insulin resistance syndrome; physical activity; hypertension; insulin-mediated blood flow; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Geriatrics; geriatrik;

    Sammanfattning : Skeletal muscle accounts for the largest part of insulin-mediated glucose uptake. Insulin resistance (IR) is the main component of insulin resistance syndrome (IRS) and is an essential cause of a number of cardiovascular risk factors. LÄS MER

  4. 44. Mixture Effects of Environmental Contaminants

    Författare :Erik Lampa; Monica Lind; Jonas Björk; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mixtures; Environmental Contaminants; Atherosclerosis; Metabolic Syndrome; Boosting; Epidemiology;

    Sammanfattning : Chemical exposure in humans rarely consists of a single chemical. The everyday exposure is characterized by thousands of chemicals mainly present at low levels. Despite that fact, risk assessment of chemicals is carried out on a chemical-by-chemical basis although there is a consensus that this view is too simplistic. LÄS MER

  5. 45. Metabolic factors and risk of prostate, kidney, and bladder cancer

    Författare :Christel Häggström; Pär Stattin; Håkan Jonsson; Tanja Stocks; Bas Bueno de Mesquita; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cohort study; competing risk; epidemiology; metabolic factors; prostate cancer; kidney cancer; bladder cancer; renal cell carcinoma; survival analysis; Epidemiology; epidemiologi; Urology; kirurgi; särskilt urologi; onkologi; Oncology;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in Sweden with around 10,000 new cases every year. Kidney and bladder cancer are less common with 1,000 and 2,000 new cases annually, respectively. LÄS MER
