    Författare :Delshad Akrawi; kardiovaskulär epidemiologi och levnadsvanor Allmänmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; kidney failure; glomerulonephritis; epidemiological study; Familial relative risk;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Kidney disease is recognised as an important worldwide health burden. Kidney failure is the result of acute and chronic kidney disease and is associated with morbidity and mortality. Chronic kidney failure is associated with high-costs for society and low quality of life. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Molecular mechanisms of weight regulation in obesity and chronic renal failure with special reference to leptin and uncoupling protein 2

    Författare :Louise Nordfors; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :adipose tissue; BMI; chronic renal failure CRF ; gene expression; in situ hybridization; leptin; obesity; peritoneal dialysis PD ; single nucleotide polymorphism SNP ; UCP2; UCP2-polymorphism;

    Sammanfattning : Obesity, which increases the risk of developing serious medical disorders, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, is threatening to become a global epidemic, meaning escalating healthcare costs for society and reduced quality of life for the individual. Thus, there is a large unmet need for improved preventive strategies and effective treatments. LÄS MER

  5. 19. The balance between under- and over-immunosuppression after heart transplantation with emphasis on acute cellular rejection and chronic kidney disease. Experiences from Skåne University Hospital in Lund 1988-2010

    Författare :Carl Söderlund; Kardiologi; []

    Sammanfattning : Background and aims:Heart transplantation (HT) constitutes the ultimate treatment choice for end-stage heart failure. Following HT, patients require life-long immunosuppressive treatment to prevent allograft rejection. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Risk factors for the development of chronic renal failure : epidemiological studies on the role of analgesic use, occupational exposures and socioeconomic background

    Sammanfattning : Chronic renal failure is a severe condition that reduces life expectancy and typically progresses to end-stage renal disease and a need for renal replacement therapy. In a large proportion of cases, chronic renal failure evolves from known renal or systemic diseases, but in some cases the pathogenesis remains unknown. LÄS MER
