1. 1. The cardiorenal syndrome: Structural and functional aspects including associations with the shrunken pore syndrome

   Författare :Liana Xhakollari; Internmedicin - epidemiologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiorenal syndrome; Shrunken Pore Syndrome; mortality; cystatin C; eGFR; cardiovascular disease; chronical kidney disease;

   Sammanfattning : Mild to moderate renal impairment affects 10% of the general population. Renal impairment is difficult to detect because of the lack of symptoms, but it can be estimated by calculating the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on the basis of plasma creatinine and/or cystatin C concentrations.

   Sammanfattning : Introduction: Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common hemodynamic significant valvular heart disease and affects about 2% of the population. The incidence increases with age. When symptoms of the stenotic aortic valve disease eventually occur the 2-year mortality exceeds 50%. LÄS MER

4. 3. Identification of the high risk hip fracture patients

   Författare :Magnús Hjaltalín Jónsson; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hip fractures; Mortality; Nottingham Hip Fracture Score; POSSUM; P-POSSUM; Biomarkers; Lactate; GDF-15; CA-125; Cystatin C; Creatinine; Shrunken Pore Syndrome;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Hip fractures are common in older individuals entailing considerable risk of morbidity and mortality. Instruments are needed to enhance risk stratification of hip fracture patients. There is limited knowledge of the role of biomarkers as risk prognosticators for mortality in hip fracture patients.

   Sammanfattning : Background: Globally, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke, are the leading cause of illness and death and constitute a significant part of the disease burden in Sweden and Western Europe. Age, hypertension, smoking, obesity, dyslipoproteinemia, diabetes, and impaired renal function are considered established risk factors for CVD. LÄS MER
