1. The renin-angiotensin system in renal tubulogenesis. Experimental studies in the rat
Sammanfattning : The kidney and the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) are vital regulators of blood pressure and salt-water balance. In order to appropriately regulate circulatory homeostasis, the kidney must undergo normal development, in which the RAS plays a crucial role. LÄS MER
2. Renal function after transplantation of the liver and intestine
Sammanfattning : Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) after liver (LT) or intestinal (IT) transplantation may decrease patient survival. Calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) play a major role in its development. Aims: Describe long term renal function and risk factors for developing CKD in adults and children after LT and IT. LÄS MER
3. Molecular genetic aspects of renal cell carcinoma development
Sammanfattning : Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common tumor of the renal parenchyma. The aim of this study was to further characterize known as well as new genetic abnormalities in a clinical material of RCC, as well as in established cell lines to gain more information about etiological and progression factors.

4. Development of Salt-Sensitive Hypertension in Hydronephrosis
Sammanfattning : Hydronephrosis, due to ureteropelvic junction obstruction, is a common condition in infants with an incidence of approximately 0.5-1%. During the last decade, the surgical management of non-symptomatic hydronephrosis has become more conservative, and the long-term physiological consequences of this new policy are unclear. LÄS MER
5. Aspects of renal blood flow and oxygenation in acute kidney injury during severe infections
Sammanfattning : Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in patients treated in the intensive care unit (ICU). Severe infections/sepsis is the most common aetiology, and about half of patients treated in the ICU due to sepsis are affected. Although AKI often resolves over time, the development of AKI decreases the chances of surviving. LÄS MER
