    Sammanfattning : "Men born 1914" is a population based cohort study of the epidemiology of cardiovascular disease. Five hundred men, born 1914, were examined at the age of 68 and 185 of them were re-examined at 81 years of age. LÄS MER

  3. 2. High Blood Pressure in Children with Hydronephrosis

    Författare :Ammar Nadhom Farman Al-Mashhadi; Mattias Carlström; Gundela Holmdahl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Blood pressure; hydronephrosis; hypertension; ambulatory blood pressure monitoring; nitric oxide; oxidative stress; pelvo-ureteric junction obstruction.; Barnkirurgi; Pediatric Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : The most common cause of secondary hypertension is intrinsic renal disease, but little is known about the influence of hydronephrosis on blood pressure. In this thesis, the risk of development of hypertension in children with hydronephrosis was studied. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Psychosocial stress in relation to blood pressure and cardivascular disease - epidemiological and genetic aspects

    Författare :Bertil Öhlin; Internmedicin - epidemiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kardiovaskulära systemet; receptor; Cardiovascular system; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; adrenergic; alpha-2; beta-1; mortality; morbidity; prospective; studies; polymorphism; work; stress; blood pressure; hypertension;

    Sammanfattning : Psychosocial stress has been linked to both hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD), and hypertension has been proposed to be one mediator of the increased CVD risk in subjects reporting stress. Genetic susceptibility for blood pressure elevation in relation to stress has been proposed, but so far there is little evidence. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Non-invasive measurement of skeletal muscle blood flow using by photoplethysmography. Experimental studies on the human leg

    Författare :Qiuxia Zhang; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; photoplethysmography; skeletal muscle blood flow; perfusion pressure; intramuscular pressure; venous obstruction; muscle exercise; non-invasive; limb elevation; vibration exposure; hyperaemia; foot pump.;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis was to validate a new non-invasive photoplethysmography (PPG) method for measuring relative changes in local muscle blood flow (MBF) in the human leg. Experimental conditions expected to impede or increase local MBF were used to test responsiveness of the PPG. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Lateral epicondylitis : intramuscular blood flow, pressure and metabolism in the ECRB muscle

    Författare :Eva Oskarsson; Karin Piehl Aulin; Eva Nylander; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Lateral epicondylitis; ECRB; intramuscular microcirculation; intramuscular pressure; botulinum toxin; muscle metabolism; pain; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Idrottsvetenskap; Sports Science;

    Sammanfattning : Lateral epicondylitis is classified as an overuse injury and the main symptom is pain from the lateral side of the elbow. There is general agreement that the extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) muscle and its proximal tendon play a central role in the development of lateral epicondylitis. However, the pathophysiology is to a large extent unclear. LÄS MER
