21. Patient-reported and medical outcomes in patients treated for diabetic macular edema : A real-world longitudinal study
Sammanfattning : Background Diabetes mellitus can lead to complications, when the complication affects the eyes it is called retinopathy. This can affect the macula and lead to severe loss of vision, diabetic macular edema (DME). This condition has traditionally been treated with laser. LÄS MER
22. Aspects of arterial wall healing : re-endothelialization, intimal hyperplasia and vascular remodeling
Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality in the world. Despite prevention, the need for interventions remains high. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus have an increased cardiovascular burden and are at higher risk of complications following invasive vascular interventions. LÄS MER
23. Insulin resistance and IGF-I sensitivity in vascular cells - impact of hybrid receptors : With special regard to diabetes
Sammanfattning : Diabetic complications largely affect the circulation and are associated with resistance to insulin and altered levels of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). Insulin resistance and altered IGF-I levels are also associated with vascular disease. LÄS MER
24. Endothelin-1 in the regulation of vascular function and glucose metabolism in insulin resistance
Sammanfattning : Insulin resistance plays a major role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Endothelial dysfunction, characterized by reduced bioactivity of nitric oxide and increased activity of the vasoconstrictor and pro-inflammatory peptide endothelin-1 (ET-1), is present in insulin-resistant states and is an important factor promoting the development of cardiovascular complications in patients with insulin resistance.

25. Insulin resistance and cardiovascular function - Observational, translational and interventional studies
Sammanfattning : Background: Microvascular disease is now recognized as an important driver for cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. Diabetic patients are known to suffer from this condition, leading to e.g. coronary ischemia as well as kidney dysfunction. LÄS MER
