  1. 1. A Study of Renal Function in Children with Cancer

    Författare :Lars Hjorth; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pediatrics; Pediatri; nefrologi; Urologi; nephrology; Urology; children; sequelae; pediatric oncology; chemotherapy; renal toxicity; malignancy; hyperfiltration; iohexol clearance; glomerular filtration rate; kidney disease; Glomerular proteinuria; tubular proteinuria;

    Sammanfattning : Evaluation of long-term side effects of treatment is important due to the growing number of childhood cancer survivors. How kidney function is affected over time needs to be clarified. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Aspects of retransfusion of shed blood in cardiac surgery

    Författare :Björn Brondén; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; CABG; cardiotomy suction; lipid microemboli; porcine study; clinical study; cystatin C; creatinine; iohexol clearance; outcome; retransfusion; transfusion; blood.;

    Sammanfattning : The use of cardiotomy suction during open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has a long tradition and often regarded as mandatory. Recently, studies have described potentially negative effects of cardiotomy suction with activation of the complement system, enhanced inflammatory response, hemolysis and coagulopathy. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Glomerular filtration rate in adults : a single sample plasma clearance method based on the mean sojurn time

    Författare :Margareta Gref; Kjell Karp; Börje Ljungberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Clinical Physiology; klinisk fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a key parameter in evaluating kidney function. After a bolus injection of an exogenous GFR marker in plasma an accurate determination of GFR can be made by measuring the marker concentration in plasma during the excretion. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Renal dysfunction and protection in cardiovascular surgery

    Författare :Anders Bergman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Acute Renal Failure; Anesthesia; Atrial Natriuretic Peptide; Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide; Calcium Antagonists; Diltiazem; Heart Surgery; Postoperative Renal Dysfunction; Vascular Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: This thesis is focused on studies of postoperative renal dysfunction (PRD), and on renal effects and possible prophylactic potentials of three vasoactive substances, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), and the calcium channel antagonist diltiazem. Methods: In paper I the medical records of 1 030 consecutive cardiothoracic surgery patients were evaluated and glomerular filtration calculated from serum creatinine levels. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Clinical relevance of high-sensitive Troponin T in cardiovascular disease

    Författare :Christian Bjurman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; biomarkers; prognostic score; mortality; heart failure; myocardial infarction; renal dysfunction;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aims: Troponin T (hs-cTnT) is a cardiac damage marker used in the diagnosis of non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and for prognostic assessment. Clinical decision-making should ideally be based on evidence. LÄS MER
