11. Influence of bone-associated and cardiovascular biomarkers on vascular events and mortality in relation to renal dysfunction
Sammanfattning : Biomarkers can help physicians identify subjects with an increased cardiovascular risk. Apart from the clinical factors, some biomarkers have been recognized as important predictors and risk factors for cardiovascular disease in renal disease. LÄS MER
12. Inflammatory biomarkers in ANCA-associated vasculitis
Sammanfattning : Background: Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis (AAV) is a heterogenous group of relatively rare and serious small vessel vasculitides, characterized by the presence of proteinase 3 (PR3) ANCA or myeloperoxidase (MPO) ANCA. The disease manifestations vary widely, from a localized form to a serious disease with multi-organ failure. LÄS MER
13. Novel biomarkers in regulating human dense connective tissue repair
Sammanfattning : Painful and degenerative disorders of the musculoskeletal system pose a tremendous burden on the healthcare system. One main reason is the limited knowledge of the underlying key factors and pathways responsible for the suboptimal and often varying healing outcomes of dense connective tissues (CTs), such as tendons, ligaments and knee meniscus, which have vital supportive, protective and force transmitting roles in the human body.

14. Aspects of Vitamin D : Prevalence of deficiency and impact on musculoskeletal parameters
Sammanfattning : Vitamin D is central in calcium turnover, and adequate levels are important for skeletal health. It is not clear how large contributions from food and sunlight are in Swedish primary care patients, considering the low radiation of UVB in Sweden and fortification of some foods, and whether differences exist between patients of immigrant and Swedish origin.

15. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Aspects of smoking, biomarkers and cardiovascular disease
Sammanfattning : Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common and preventable disease characterized by airflow obstruction and emphysema development. COPD often coexist with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and both diseases have common risk factors i.e. age and smoking and shared features i. LÄS MER
