  1. 11. Diagnostic and prognostic value of proteinuria in chronic renal diseases

    Författare :Omran Bakoush; Njurmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Urology; Hypertension.; Glomerulonephritis; IgM; Albuminuria; Diabetic Nephropathy; nephrology; Urologi; nefrologi;

    Sammanfattning : To the extent that increased urinary protein excretion is an indicator of alterations of the glomerular capillary wall (GCW) and appearance of tubulointerstitial damage, proteinuria can be a good marker of the overall severity of the glomerular and tubulointerstitial damage, and therefore, the prognosis of glomerular diseases. Studies I, II, and III show that it is the type of proteinuria, rather than the degree of albuminuria, that predicts the progression in renal, proteinuric diseases. LÄS MER

  3. 12. The expression of the structural proteins dendrin and Neph1 in the glomerular filtration barrier in proteinuria

    Författare :Jenny Hulkko; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: In the normal kidney, the glomerular filtration barrier successfully clears about one litre blood per minute. Damage to the filtration barrier might lead to protein leakage in the urine – proteinuria. The major ultra-structural finding in glomerular diseases with proteinuria is foot process effacement (FPE).

  4. 13. Evaluation of an automatic urinometer including use of silicone oil to decrease biofilm formation due to proteinuria, hemoglobinuria and bacterial growth

    Författare :Martin Slettengren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: A new capacitance-based automatic urinometer (AU) facilitates continuous urine output (UO) measurement, which may help to predict and diagnose acute kidney injury (AKI). To prevent mismeasurement due to bacterial, albumin or free hemoglobin biofilm, a water-soluble capsule with silicone oil has been integrated in the device. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Bone and kidney effects from cadmium exposure : dose effect and dose response relationships

    Författare :Tobias Alfvén; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Bone; bone mineral density; cadmium; epidemiology; environmental exposure; fractures; heavy metals; human; kidneys; occupationally exposure; osteoporosis; protein HC; tubular proteinuria;

    Sammanfattning : Cadmium is a heavy metal that has been dispersed in the environment during the last century due to human activity. It is well known that high cadmium exposure causes renal damage and in severe cases also osteoporosis and osteomalacia. Osteoporosis is a major cause of morbidity worldwide. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Oxygen Metabolism in Experimental Kidney Disease

    Författare :Ebba Sivertsson; Fredrik Palm; Peter Hansell; Jenny Nyström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kidney; kidney oxygenation; mitochondria; proteinuria; uncoupling protein; adenosine nucleotide transporter; diabetes; hyperthyroidism; thyroid hormone; hypertension; angiotensin II; CDK; AST-120; rats; mice; Fysiologi; Physiology;

    Sammanfattning : Tubulointerstitial hypoxia has been proposed a unifying mechanism behind the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD), regardless of primary diagnosis. Important factors that contribute to the development of hypoxia are reduced bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO), oxidative stress and mitochondria uncoupling. LÄS MER
