1. 1. Influence of bone-associated and cardiovascular biomarkers on vascular events and mortality in relation to renal dysfunction

   Författare :Ping-Hsun Wu; Östen Ljunggren; Bengt Fellström; Torbjörn Linde; Jonas Spaak; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; biomarkers; bone markers; cardiovascular markers; proteomics; vascular event; mortality; renal function; hemodialysis; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

   Sammanfattning : Biomarkers can help physicians identify subjects with an increased cardiovascular risk. Apart from the clinical factors, some biomarkers have been recognized as important predictors and risk factors for cardiovascular disease in renal disease. LÄS MER

3. 2. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, with focus on vascular wall changes, cardiac risk-factor awareness and cardiovascular events

   Författare :Christine Bengtsson; Reumatologi och molekylär skelettbiologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; microvascular reactivity; arteria stiffness; cardiac risk factors; Cardiovascular event; SLE;

   Sammanfattning : Systemic Lupus Erythematosus is an autoimmune disease with a wide range of disease manifestations with respect to severity and magnitude of organ involvement. An increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared with the general population causes both morbidity and mortality in SLE patients. LÄS MER

4. 3. Circulating immune complexes in atherosclerotic vascular disease

   Författare :Awder Mustafa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :circulating immune complexes; autoantibodies; lipoproteins; cardiolipin; oxidized LDL; atherosclerosis; myocardial infarction; food proteins; complement factor C4.;

   Sammanfattning : We have investigated the association of the humoral immune factors circulating immune complexes (CICs) and autoantibodies against cardiolipin (aCL) and oxidatively modified LDL (oxLDL) to atherosclerotic vascular diseases. In a prospective nested case-control study, in which healthy 50-year-old men were followed for 20 years, the prevalence of elevated CICs and the concentration of CICs were higher in men who developed myocardial infarction.

5. 4. Vascular endothelial growth factor in renal cell carcinoma

   Författare :Jan Jacobsen; Börje Ljungberg; Kjell Grankvist; Torgny Rasmuson; Anders Bergh; Peter Ekman; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; VEGF; isoforms; quantitative RT-PCR; immunohistochemistry; tissue microarray; Western blot; stage; survival; renal cell carcinoma; Urology and andrology; Urologi och andrologi;

   Sammanfattning : Background. Angiogenesis is essential for tumour growth. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its isoforms were investigated in relation to the clinical course in a large number of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods. LÄS MER

7. 5. Vascular ultrasound for the assessment of carotid atherosclerosis

   Författare :Davide Vanoli; Per Lindqvist; Christine Kremer; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ultrasound; Plaque; IMT; Atherosclerosis; CEUS; Carotid vessels; cardiovascular disease; hjärt- och kärlforskning;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a common cause for mortality globally, and is expected to remain the single leading cause of death as the global population ages and as life expectancy increases.Cardiovascular screening models have been developed, and continue to be developed, to identify individuals at high-risk of CVD.
