  1. 1. Hyaluronan and Renal Fluid Handling : Studies during Normal and Pathological Conditions of Renal Function

    Författare :Viktoria Göransson; Mats Rundgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; CD44; gerbils; hyaluronan; ischemia-reperfusion; kidney; osmolality; oxygen tension; rat; renomedullary interstitial cells; water; Cellbiologi; Cell biology; Cellbiologi; Physiology; fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The kidney is the major organ responsible for the regulation of the composition and volume of the body fluids, which is essential for homeostasis. The glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA), with extreme water-binding capacity, is present in the interstitium of the kidney with a heterogenous distribution. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Alternative Methods for Assessment of Split Renal Function

    Författare :Henrik Björkman; Anders Magnusson; Jonas Wadström; Torbjörn Andersson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Radiology; Split renal function; Live kidney donor; CT; Renography; Dynamic MRI; Renal volume; Respiratory triggering; Radiologisk forskning;

    Sammanfattning : Living kidney donation is a clinical situation with unique features in the sense that healthy individuals voluntarily expose themselves to certain risks and inconveniences. Therefore, eliminating as much of the associated discomfort as possible is crucial. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Localised and Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma. Aspects of Treatment

    Författare :David Lyrdal; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :renal cell carcinoma; nephron-sparing surgery; 18F -2-flouro-2-deoxyglucose; positron emission tomography; metastatic renal cell carcinoma; peg-interferon alfa-2b; radiofrequency; ablation; percutaneous; ultrasound;

    Sammanfattning : Localised and Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma. Aspects of Treatment. Aims: Paper I To assess the long-term results in patients operated with NSS in situ for RCC, with special reference to their dependence on tumour grade and stage. LÄS MER

  5. 4. 99mTc-DMSA renal scintigraphy in the diagnosis and follow-up of acute pyelonephritis in children

    Författare :Lena Wallin; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; tomography; radiology; Clinical physics; progressive renal damage; kidney length; kidney radioactive uptake; pyelonephritis; DMSA-scintigraphy; medical instrumentation; Klinisk fysiologi; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the present thesis was to define and evaluate a strategy for identification of children who are at risk of developing progressive renal lesions after acute pyelonephritis. Tc-DMSA renal scintigraphy is widely accepted as the most sensitive method for detecting parenchymal lesions and diagnosing acute pyelonephritis. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Infants with urinary tract infection - renal damage and risk factors

    Författare :Iulian Preda; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :infants; renal damage; urinary tract infection; imaging;

    Sammanfattning : Background Identification of infants with urinary tract infection (UTI) who are at risk of renal scarring is an important clinical challenge with considerable economic consequences. Few issues in pediatric practice today have been so debated as the appropriate investigation of an infant with UTI. LÄS MER
