  1. 1. Cardiovascular regulation and vascular structure in prehypertension and coronary heart disease

    Författare :Anna Myredal; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :prehypertension; coronary heart disease; repolarization; baroreflex; intima thickness; CABG; non-dippers;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to characterize vascular structure and different aspects of cardiovascular regulation in otherwise healthy subjects with slightly elevated blood pressure and compare to healthy subjects with normotension and also investigate patients with established primary or secondary hypertension and coronary heart disease. Altered cardiac repolarization and arterial baroreflex function has been associated with adverse prognosis and increased risk for ventricular arrhythmias in patients with cardiovascular diseases.

    Sammanfattning : "Men born 1914" is a population based cohort study of the epidemiology of cardiovascular disease. Five hundred men, born 1914, were examined at the age of 68 and 185 of them were re-examined at 81 years of age. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Cardiovascular health in children and adolescents with obesity : prevalence, prediction and supervised exercise

    Författare :Pernilla Hedvall Kallerman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of death worldwide and is preceded by a long process in which several cardiovascular (CV) risk factors are present, sometimes already in childhood. Some of these risk factors such as non-dipping blood pressure and microvascular endothelial dysfunction and possible associated factors are little studied among children with obesity. LÄS MER
