1. 1. Development of Salt-Sensitive Hypertension in Hydronephrosis

   Författare :Mattias Carlström; Erik Persson; Nils Wåhlin; Russell Brown; Göran Bergström; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Physiology; blood pressure; nephrectomy; nitric oxide; oxidative stress; renal function; renin angiotensin system; salt-sensitivity; telemetry; tubuloglomerular feedback; ureteral obstruction; Fysiologi;

   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

3. 2. Genetic Factors and Dietary Salt Intake as Determinants of Blood Pressure and Risk of Primary Hypertension

   Författare :Fredrik Wowern; diabetes och endokrinologi Genomik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Blood Pressure; Kardiovaskulära systemet; Cardiovascular system; Genetics; Salt; Hypertension;

   Sammanfattning : Blood pressure (BP) and development of hypertension (HT) are determined by both genetic and environmental factors. The specific genetic etiology of these two entities has remained enigmatic despite large efforts. In addition, daily salt intake seems to predispose for certain individuals to develop HT. LÄS MER

4. 3. Angiotensin II and vascular disease. Studies in rats and atherosclerosis-prone mice

   Författare :Maria E Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :angiotensin II; atherosclerosis; AT1 receptor; AT2 receptor; blood pressure; hyperinsulinemia; hypertension; oxidative stress; salt; vascular disease; vascular function;

   Sammanfattning : Angiotensin II (Ang II) is of importance for a number of physiological processes but also plays an important pathophysiological role in cardiovascular disease. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the role of Ang II in hypertension-related atherosclerosis and vascular disease and to investigate possible anti-atherosclerotic effects of the angiotensin II, type 2 (AT2) receptor.

5. 4. Genetic factors in primary hypertension- with emphasis on renal sodium reabsorption

   Författare :Olle Melander; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Endokrinologi; diabetology; secreting systems; Endocrinology; alpha-adducin; Gitelman´s syndrome; Liddle´s syndrome; insulin resistance; genetics; intrauterine growth; salt sensitivity; Primary hypertension; essential hypertension; sekretion; diabetologi; Cardiovascular system; Kardiovaskulära systemet;

   Sammanfattning : Genetic factors are of importance for the development of primary hypertension (HT). Intrauterine growth retardation, salt sensitivity and insulin resistance are all characteristic features of individuals prone to develop HT. LÄS MER

7. 5. Inhibition of 11 ß-HSD. Hemodynamic and hormonal response induced by liquorice

   Författare :Helga A Sigurjónsdóttir; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 11 ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase; glycyrrhetinic acid; liquorice; hypertension; gender; androgen hormones;

   Sammanfattning : Introduction: The enzyme 11 ß-hydroxysteroid-dehydrogenas (11 ß-HSD) type 2 that converts the active hormone cortisol to the inactive cortisone is inhibited by glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), the active substance in liquorice. This leads to hypertension, hypokalaemia and sodium- and fluid retention, the syndrome of pseudo-hyperaldosteronism. LÄS MER
