21. Genetics of Diabetes Subtypes. Characterization of novel cluster-based diabetes subtypes
Sammanfattning : BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has been reproducibly clustered into five subtypes based on six-clinical variables; age at diabetes onset, body mass index (BMI), Glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies (GADA), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and insulin secretion and resistance estimated as HOMA2B and HOMA2IR derived from fasting glucose and Cpeptide. These subtypes have different disease progression and risk of complications. LÄS MER
22. Aspects of ethnicity on blood pressure regulating mechanisms and kidney function in a defined population
Sammanfattning : Background: Middle Eastern immigrants represent a growing population in Sweden today. This group are at higher risk for type 2 diabetes than the native population, but are also shown to exhibit unique properties; despite an abundance in traditional cardiometabolic risk factors such as obesity, dearranged blood lipids and diminished physical acitivity, this group seem to exhibit lower blood pressure levels.

24. Identification of genes and pathways involved in the development and progression of glomerular diseases
Sammanfattning : Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects millions of people worldwide and is characterized by a reduction in glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria resulting in a gradual loss of kidney function. The high prevalence of the disease, along with the limited treatment options available, makes it a major burden to the health care systems around the world. LÄS MER
25. Nephrotic syndrome in children : functional, morphological and therapeutical aspects
Sammanfattning : Although cure rates of the idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in children have improved because of advances in immunosuppressive therapy, the pathogenesis and course of the disease remain controversial. We have followed children with nephrotic syndrome to study renal function and morphological changes in kidney biopsies and in an experimental study. LÄS MER
