16. Studies on patients with ileal conduit diversion with special regard to renal infection
Sammanfattning : The conditions for retrograde transport of urine and thereby bacteria in the urinary svstem of diverted patients (device and urinary tract) were studied with roentgenological technigue. Back-flow from the urinary collecting device into the conduit occurred in a fifth of those patients who had a flat stoma. LÄS MER
17. Long-term outcome of vesicoureteral reflux and reflux nephropathy in adults - clinical and radiological aspects
Sammanfattning : The aim was to study the long-term consequencies of vesicoureteral reflux and reflux nephropathy (RN) in adults, with regard to radiological progression, urinary tract infections, renal functional impairment, hypertension, and to determine if the extent of renal damage can predict the outcome. Attempts to differentiate between acquired and developmental renal damage were also made. LÄS MER
18. Mucosal receptors involved in pathogen recognition and host defence
Sammanfattning : Urinary tract infection is the most common infection in man. P fimbriae are virulence factors of uro-pathogenic Escherichia coli. They are expressed by 70-90 % of acute pyelonephritis isolates and up to 100% of the most virulent isolates that cause bacteremia. LÄS MER
19. Long-term follow-up of adult women with urinary tract infection in childhood
Sammanfattning : Acute pyelonephritis is common in young children and can lead to permanent renal damage. Renal damage increases the risk of complications such as hypertension and decreased renal function later in life. For women with renal damage there is also an increased risk of pregnancy complications. LÄS MER
20. Potent inhibitors of uropathogenic E. coli papG adhesins; Synthesis, conformational studies and biological evaluation of galabiose derivatives and synthesis of glycosphingolipid analogues
Sammanfattning : The importance of carbohydrates in biological systems has become evident during the last fifty years. It is well known that pathogenic bacteria and viruses attach to glycoconjugates present at mammalian cell surfaces, and that this attachment is a prerequisite for the later stages of infection.
