  1. 21. Glucose degradation products in peritoneal dialysis fluids

    Författare :Martin Erixon; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Medicine human and vertebrates ; 4-dideoxyglucosone-3-ene; 3; cytotoxicity; storage; temperature; Glucose degradation products biocompatibility; sterlization; Medicin människa och djur ; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Patients suffering from renal failure must remove extracellular water and waste products from their body in order to survive. One way of doing this is by treatment with peritoneal dialysis (PD). LÄS MER

  3. 22. Icodextrin metabolism in peritoneal dialysis : clinical and experimental studies

    Författare :Elvia García López; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Peritoneal dialysis; icodextrin; icodextrin metabolites; ultrafiltration; alphaarnylase activity; gel-filtration HPLC;

    Sammanfattning : Icodextrin (ICO, or polyglucose) is an effective osmotic agent for peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients (pts). ICO is a soluble polymeric form of glucose with an average molecular 'weight range from 13,000 to 19,000 dalton. Glucose is absorbed from the peritoneal cavity by diffusion. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Mathematical modeling of fluid and solute transport in peritoneal dialysis

    Författare :Jacek Waniewski; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :diffusion; convective transport; perfusion; lymphatic absorption; ultrafiltration; osmosis; continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis;

    Sammanfattning : Optimization of peritoneal dialysis schedule and dialysis fluid composition needs, among others, methods for quantitative assessment of fluid and solute transport. Furthermore, an integrative quantitative description of physiological processes within the tissue, which contribute to the net transfer of fluid and solutes, is necessary for interpretation of the data and for predictions of the outcome of possible intervention into the peritoneal transport system.

  5. 24. Icodextrin metabolism in peritoneal dialysis : clinical and experimental studies

    Författare :Elvia Garcia Lopez; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Icodextrin is a glucose polymer which is used as osmotic agent to provide sustained ultrafiltration (UF) during the long (8-16 hours) dwell in end-stage renal disease patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). The aims of this thesis were to study: the metabolism of icodextrin in the peritoneal cavity and in the circulation of PD patients and non-uremic rats, the role of alpha-amylase in its hydrolysis, and the rate of breakdown of a synthetic maltoheptaose (G7) ex vivo which we propose as a novel measure of amylase mediated oligosaccharide metabolism.

  7. 25. Intracellular regulation of TLR signaling Basic mechanisms and importance in intestinal inflammation

    Författare :Martin Berglund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TLR IL-1R signalling; Gαi2- - mice; IRAK; peritoneal macrophages; cross-tolerance; dextran sulfate sodium; IBD;

    Sammanfattning : Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize conserved structures on/in microorganisms. The intracellular signalling pathways of TLRs are shared with IL-1R and IL-18R and their activation leads to transcription of proinflammatory cytokines and type-I interferons. LÄS MER
