1. Primary Care as an Arena For Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Vardiovascular Disease Prevention
Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease prevention has been a challenge for research for decades. The studies of this thesis were designed to investigate the role of health professionals in everyday clinical work based upon the concept of comprehensive primary care consultation. LÄS MER
2. Effects of surgically induced weight loss on cardiovascular risk factors. Results from the intervention study Swedish Obese Subjects
Sammanfattning : Aims: To investigate the effects of large maintained weight losses on body composition, adipose tissue distribution and cardiovascular risk factors, i.e. systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, glucose, insulin, triglycerides, cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and uric acid.

3. Insulin signal transduction in skeletal muscle : special consideration for insulin resistance and diabetes
Sammanfattning : This dissertation work is focused on the insulin-signal-transduction pathways to glucose transport in skeletal muscle from animal models of NIDDM. The overall objective is to determine the effectiveness of different pharmacological treatments to improve insulin action in skeletal muscle. LÄS MER
4. Neuro-immune communication: role of the vagus nerve : an electrophysiological study
Sammanfattning : Defence mechanisms involve close interactions between the nervous and immune systems following an immune challenge. The vagal pathways which modulate major visceral functions under normal conditions are also important neural pathways for the transmission of information on peripheral conditions to the CNS. LÄS MER
5. Secondary drug failure in non insulin dependent diabetes : on causes and aspects of treatment
Sammanfattning : Non Insulin Dependent Diabetes (NIDDM) represents a major health problem with increased risk of atherosclerotic disease and early death. The grave consequences of NIDDM are partly due to inadequate and insufficient treatment. The purpose of the present study was to study the causes of treatment failure and evaluate new strategies of treatment. LÄS MER
