  1. 21. When the paediatric heart is affected : impact on nutrition, growth and body composition from infancy to adolescence

    Författare :Lena Hansson; Annika Rydberg; Inger Öhlund; Torbjörn Lind; Tanis Fenton; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Congenital heart disease; Patent ductus arteriosus; Preterm infant; Infant growth; Energy intake; Dietary fatty acid; Micronutrient intake; Vitamin D; Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry DXA ; Fontan circulation.; pediatrik; Pediatrics; Food and Nutrition; kostvetenskap; kardiologi; Cardiology;

    Sammanfattning : BackgroundChildren with complex congenital heart disease (CHD) and very low birth weight (VLBW) infants with a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) are two distinct groups of patients with different clinical care needs. Irrespective of the type of heart condition, nutritional intake and growth is largely affected in these individuals during infancy. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Chromatin transcription and dietary proteins : with observations on the RNA synthesis of rat liver in response to the protein content and amino acid composition in the diet

    Författare :Stefan U. Åström; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims at characterization of fractionated chromatin with respect to bound and free RNA polymerase activities together with an analysis of the in vitro transcription of chromatin after changing the protein or amino acid content of the diet.Rat liver nuclei were incubated with micrococcal nuclease which acts as an endonuclease on DNA.

  4. 23. MRI-based Methods for Quantification of Fat and Fatty Acid Composition. Validation and Applications

    Författare :Lena Trinh; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The interest of in vivo measurements of fat has increased over the years due to the increasing prevalence of obesity and obesity-related conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and fatty liver. The relationship between the accumulation of adipose tissue within the different depots and organs of the body, and the risk of developing numerous diseases, has been investigated and established.

  5. 24. Effects of diet intervention on body composition and ectopic fat accumulation in obese postmenopausal women

    Författare :Caroline Mellberg; Tommy Olsson; Mats Rudling; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; obesity; diet intervention; postmenopausal; ectopic fat; medicin; Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Background Obesity is increasing worldwide and is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality. Notably, abdominal (central) obesity carries a high risk of obesity-related diseases, while peripheral fat accumulation can act in a protective manner. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Functionalized Biomaterial Surfaces by Micro- and Nanofabrication

    Författare :Sarunas Petronis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nanofabrication; surface characterization; surface topography; surface chemical composition; marine biofouling; force-sensing substrates; microfabrication; surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy; cell-surface interaction; biointerfaces; biomaterials;

    Sammanfattning : In the field of biomaterials, well-defined nano- and micropatterns or features at material surfaces can serve both as models for investigating material-biosystem interactions and as functional features for inducing, hindering or measuring specific bioreactions or biologic responses. Important bioreactions include protein adsorption and conformation, cell attachment and function, and adhesion and function of organized tissues or whole organisms. LÄS MER
