  1. 16. Glucose-lowering interventions and risk assessment in patients with coronary heart disease and disturbed glucose metabolism

    Författare :Camilla Hage; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Abnormal glucose regulation (AGR) including impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) are common in patients with stable and unstable coronary artery disease (CAD) and impair their prognosis. Available glucose lowering interventions have not fully succeeded in improving the detrimental prognosis and accurate screening methods and new treatment strategies are needed. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Acute myocardial infarction and glucose abnormalities : novel risk markers and characteristics

    Författare :Märit Wallander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: There is a strong relationship between abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT) and the occurrence of an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The identification of novel risk markers and pathophysiological disease characteristics may add important information to our understanding of the reasons for the disease pattern and thereby open the door to new therapeutic opportunities in this high-risk group of patients.

  3. 18. Glucose regulation and coronary artery disease : studies on prevalence, recognition and prognostic implications

    Författare :Malgorzata Zofia Bartnik; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Glucose metabolism; coronary artery disease; classification; prevalence; prognosis; risk oral glucose tolerance test; diabetes mellitus;

    Sammanfattning : Coronary artery disease and diabetes mellitus type 2 represent chronic diseases of substantial and growing prevalence. Their coincidence is common, markedly enhancing mortality and morbidity. The risk for cardiovascular disease increases along a spectrum of blood glucose concentrations from levels regarded as normal.

    Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis in 64-year-old women with diabetes mellitus and impaired glucose tolerance The incidence of obesity and type-2 diabetes (t2D) is rising around the world. T2D is accompanied by an increased risk of macrovascular, atherosclerotic diseases. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Peripheral polyneuropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus and impaired glucose tolerance. Correlations between morphology, neurophysiology, and clinical findings

    Författare :Soley Thrainsdottir; Sektion IV; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; nerve conduction studies; skin biopsy; intraepidermal nerve fibers; Diabetic neuropathy; sural nerve pathology; body mass index; quantitative sensory testing; vibrotactile sense;

    Sammanfattning : Diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy (PN) is a common and serious complication of diabetes. The prevalence of PN is rising with the global burden of type 2 diabetes. The causal mechanisms of PN are not fully understood, but both vascular and metabolic factors play a role. LÄS MER
