  1. 1. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass - clinical outcome and mechanisms of action

    Författare :Malin Werling; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Roux-en-Y gastric bypass; Obesity; Bariatric surgery; Energy chamber; Gastrointestinal hormones; GLP-1; PYY; Ghrelin; Energy expenditure; Body composition; Vertical Banded Gastroplasty; Indirect calorimetry; Overweight treatment; Weight loss;

    Sammanfattning : Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (gastric bypass) is an effective surgical technique for treating morbid obesity. The objective of this thesis is to increase knowledge of long-term outcomes of gastric bypass surgery and to elucidate some of the associated mechanisms of action. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Morbidity and mortality after bariatric surgery in Sweden

    Författare :Richard Marsk; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Overweight and obesity has increased in Sweden and in the rest of the world during the last decades, probably due to a more sedentary lifestyle and changes in diets. Body mass index (BMI) is a commonly used index of weight-for-height for classifying adult individuals. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Aspects of surgical treatment of morbid obesity : Clinical studies

    Författare :Agneta Westling; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; obesity surgey; silicone adjustable gastric banding; band erosion; revision to RYGBP; laparoscopic RYGBP; deep venous thrombosis; depp venous insufficiency; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Surgery; kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Common methods used for surgical treatment of morbid obesity are silicone adjustable gastric banding (SAGB), vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP). The role of laparoscopy in complex bariatric procedures such as RYGBP is unclear. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The influence of abdominal surgery on energy expenditure and working capacity

    Författare :Margareta Öhrström; Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabilitering; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; maximum oxygen uptake; chemotherapy; walking; Energy expenditure; treatment outcome;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this work was to study the influence of surgery on energy expenditure (EE) during working capacity measurements and during walking. In the first study the aim was to investigate whether two different devices were sensitive enough to reveal differences in energy expenditure during treadmill walking, and if the measurements were reproducible.

  5. 5. Iodine intake and uptake in populations at risk for iodine deficiency

    Författare :Sofia Manousou; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; iodine; pregnancy; lactation; bariatric surgery; urinary iodine concentration; thyroglobulin; breastmilk iodine concentration; iodine supplementation; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Iodine is essential for the production of thyroid hormones. Both iodine deficiency (ID) and iodine excess may be harmful. Iodine intake in Sweden is considered adequate for the general population due to iodization of table salt since 1936 but data on pregnant and breastfeeding women (i.e. LÄS MER
