1. 6. Autonomic function and myocardial repolarisation. Studies in renal diseases and in spinal cord injury

   Författare :Sinsia Gao; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :vagus; sympathetic nervous system; repolarisation; baroreflex; reproducibility; agreement; hypertension; spinal cord injury; autonomic dysreflexia; renal failure.;

   Sammanfattning : Both experimental and clinical evidence indicates that cardiac parasympathetic markers such as baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and heart rate variability (HRV) have significant prognostic value. Furthermore, increased myocardial repolarisation lability reflected by increased QT variability index (QTVI) has been identified as a predictor for sudden cardiac death. LÄS MER

3. 7. Cardiovascular risk factors in aortic stenosis

   Författare :Johan Ljungberg; Stefan Söderberg; Bengt Johansson; Peter Nilsson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Valvular heart disease; aortic stenosis; bicuspid aortic valve; cardiovascular risk factors; hypertension; diabetes mellitus; smoking; hypercholesterolemia; obesity; shrunken pore; renal failure; Epidemiology; epidemiologi; Cardiology; kardiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Introduction: Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common hemodynamic significant valvular heart disease and affects about 2% of the population. The incidence increases with age. When symptoms of the stenotic aortic valve disease eventually occur the 2-year mortality exceeds 50%. LÄS MER

4. 8. Epidemiology of kidney failure and glomerulonephritis in Sweden. Hereditary and non-hereditary factors

   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

5. 9. Some lifestyle-related factors and risk of chronic renal failure : a population-based approach

   Författare :Elisabeth Ejerblad; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Epidemiology; population-based; case-control; chronic renal failure; risk factors; smoking; antioxidant; fruit; vegetable; protein intake; obesity; birth weight; height; analgesics; paracetamol; aspirin; NSAIDs; phenacetin;

   Sammanfattning : Some renal diseases, i.e. rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, are sufficient causes of a rapid, permanent total loss of renal function. However, the majority of renal diseases progress slowly over decades, initially often without symptoms, sometimes making it difficult to define the aetiologies. LÄS MER

7. 10. Erythrocyte amino acids in health and renal failure and their association to the IGF-I/IGFBP-1 axis

   Författare :José Carolino Divino Filho; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :amino acid; ASP DNA; catabolism dialysis; erythrocytes; glutamate; glutamine; health; human; IGF-I; IGFBP-1; muscle; plasmaprotein intake; rat; renal failure; uraemia;

   Sammanfattning : Abnormalities in amino acids (AA) metabolism in uraemia have mainly been reported to occur in plasma and muscle. No investigation has been undertaken to evaluate the AA levels in plasma, muscle and red blood cells (RBC) simultaneously, although the RBC pool of free AA constitutes a large proportion of the free AA in blood, and RBC are involved in the interorgan transport of AA.
