  1. 21. The importance of endothelin-1 for vascular function in patients with atherosclerosis and healthy controls

    Författare :Felix Böhm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Acetylcholine; atherosclerosis; blood flow; circulation; coronary disease; endothelin; endothelium; kidney; liver; nitric oxide; patients; receptors; vasoconstriction.;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Atherosclerosis is associated with endothelial dysfunction, which is an early sign with prognostic implications in patients with coronary artery disease. Atherosclerosis is also associated with enhanced expression of the vasoconstrictor peptide endothelin-1 (ET-1). LÄS MER

  3. 22. On macrovascular and renal complications in type 1 diabetes : aspects on glycemic memory

    Författare :Björn Rathsman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : There is a substantially increased risk of premature mortality and morbidity in cardiovascular disease (CVD) among type 1 diabetes individuals compared to individuals without diabetes. Development of microangiopathy and markers of macrovascular complications precedes these events. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Endothelium-Dependent Vasodilation and Oxidative Stress in Chronic Renal Failure

    Författare :Margus Annuk; Ola Samuelson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; endothelium; oxidative stress; chronic renal failure; L-arginine; diclofenac; erythropoietin; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Internal Medicine; invärtesmedicin;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of death in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). Endothelial function and oxidative stress (OS) have previously been shown to be important in the pathogenesis of CVD. In this thesis, the endothelium-dependent vasodilatation (EDV) and OS were investigated in the patients with CRF. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Endothelial function and dysfunction in coronary artery bypass grafting

    Författare :Ulf Lockowandt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :CABG; Endothelin; Endothelin-blockers; endothelium; lactate; off-pump CABG; prostacyclin; radial artery; unstable angina pectoris;

    Sammanfattning : The integrity of the endothelium is of importance for short- and long-term results following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). In this thesis different factors of the endothelial role in the regulation of vascular tone in relation to various current aspects of CABG have been investigated. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Cardiovascular effects of diesel exhaust : mechanistic and interventional studies

    Författare :Magnus Lundbäck; Anders Blomberg; Benoit Nemery; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; air pollution; diesel exhaust; nitrogen dioxide; endothelin-1; cardiovascular effects; exhaust particle trap; Lung diseases; Lungsjukdomar; lungmedicin; Lung Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Air pollution is associated with negative health effects. Exposure to combustion-derived particulate matter (PM) air pollution has been related to increased incidence of cardiovascular and respiratory morbidity and mortality, specifically in susceptible populations. Ambient particles, with a diameter of less than 2. LÄS MER
