1. 31. Mortality and morbidity in patients with Addison's disease

   Författare :Ragnhildur Bergthorsdottir; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Addison s disease; mortality; glucocorticoid s ; glucocorticoid replacement therapy; cardiovascular diseases; bone mineral density; osteoporosis; quality of life;

   Sammanfattning : Addison's disease (AD) or primary adrenal insufficiency is a rare disease with an estimated prevalence of 100-140 per million inhabitants and deadly unless treated with glucocorticoids (GCs). Very limited information is available on the morbidity and mortality in this patient group. LÄS MER

3. 32. Genes predisposing to type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular mortality

   Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular complications are frequent in type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular death is the most common cause of death for these individuals. A region on chromosome 19 (19q13) has been indicated by several genome scans as a susceptibility locus for T2D or components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS). LÄS MER

4. 33. Cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in hypopituitary patients and metabolic effects of growth hormone treatment

   Författare :Birgitta Bulow; Lund Medicin; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glucose metabolism; growth hormone replacement; growth hormone deficiency; long-term survival; craniopharyngioma; cardiovascular risk factors; Hypopituitarism; cardiovascular mortality; Endocrinology; secreting systems; diabetology; Endokrinologi; sekretion; diabetologi;

   Sammanfattning : Premature atherosclerosis, cardiovascular risk factors and increased cardiovascular mortality have been shown in patients with hypopituitarism on conventional hormone treatment, but without growth hormone (GH) replacement. The aims of paper I-III were to investigate separately the risks for cerebrovascular and cardiac mortality as well as the incidence of cardiovascular disease in patients with hypopituitarism and to assess the long-term prognosis for patients with craniopharyngioma.

5. 34. Cardiovascular disease and adrenergic dysfunction in mild primary hyperparathyroidism

   Författare :Mats Birgander; Internmedicin - epidemiologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Primary Hyperparathyroidism; parathyroidectomy; parathyroid hormone; cardiovascular disease; mortality.;

   Sammanfattning : Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is associated with cardiovascular morbidity and premature death, but the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. The aim of this thesis was to investigate cardiovascular parameters and adrenergic function in mild PHPT compared to healthy controls subjects before and after curative parathyroidectomy (PTX).

7. 35. Leptin and the Intersection of Cardiovascular Disease, Metabolism, and Adipose Tissue

   Författare :Camilla Vavruch; Fredrik Nyström; Carl Johan Östgren; Johan Ärnlöv; Kristina Boström; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Leptin; Type 2 diabetes mellitus; Adipose tissue; Cardiovascular disease; Metabolism; Cardiovascular risk factors;

   Sammanfattning : According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels, and it is the leading cause of death worldwide. The risk factors for CVD are divided into two major classes: non-modifiable (age, gender, family history) and modifiable (including tobacco use, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), physical inactivity, unhealthy diet, abdominal obesity, high cholesterol, dyslipidemia, and stress).
