  2. 12. Structural and neurohormonal factors in left ventricular hypertrophy and inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system

    Författare :Karin Malmqvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Left ventricular hypertrophy; RAAS; insulin; sympathetic nervous system; leptin echocardiography; soluble cell adhesion molecules; AT1-recemor blockade; ACE inhibitor; QT dispersion;

    Sammanfattning : Hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The aim of this thesis was to study how different neurohormonal systems relate to left ventricular mass, and to study structural and functional cardiovascular changes in hypertensive LVH. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Vascular and endothelial function in human hypertension, and the importance of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system

    Författare :Andreas Jekell; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Hypertension induces structural vascular and cardiac changes with increased arterial stiffness and left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and is major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and the sympathetic nervous system are important for blood pressure regulation and vascular function. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Effects of Dehydration and Blockade of the Renin-Angiotensin System in the One-humped Camel (Camelus dromedarius)

    Författare :Mahmoud Al Haj; Fred Nyberg; Santi Spampinato; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Blood; biochemical analysis; catecholamine; colorimetric assay; cortisol; dehydration; dromedary camel; glutathione; hematological analysis; HPLC; insulin- like growth factor-1; losartan; plasma; receptors; radioimmunoassay; serum; Pharmaceutical Science; Farmaceutisk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : The one-humped or the dromedarian camel is a pseudo-ruminant mammal, well adapted to the hot and dry climates of the desert. Its ability to withstand torrid heat and extreme desiccation is of paramount importance to its survival. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Splanchnic organ homeostasis in experimental endotoxin shock : with special reference to the endothelin and renin-angiotensin systems

    Författare :Anders Oldner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Endotoxin; endothelin; angiotensin II shock; tonometry microdialysis; porcine; hypoxanthine; gut; splanchnic circulation; lactate; mucosal pHi;

    Sammanfattning : Splanchnic organ homeostasis may become severely deteriorated in states of sepsis and endotoxaemia. Gut tissue hypoxia with subsequent increases in intestinal mucosal permeability has been proposed to contribute to the development of multiple organ failure. LÄS MER
