1. Haemodialysis Treatment Monitored On-line by Ultra Violet Absorbance
Abstract : This thesis describes and evaluates an optical method utilizing ultra violet (UV) absorbance for on-line monitoring of haemodialysis treatment. Increased efficiency of haemodialysis treatment is considered to correlate to decreased morbidity and mortality when urea clearance (Kt/V) is elevated. READ MORE

2. Acute and chronic peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis: neurogenic inflammation and citrate treatment
Abstract : The prevalent problems associated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) are ultrafiltration failure and peritonitis. During PD the patient is sustained on a state of intraperitoneal inflammation, which over time impairs structure, and function of the peritoneal membrane, leading to loss of ultrafiltration efficacy.

3. Low molecular mass proteins as markers for renal function and dialysis efficiency
Abstract : Kidney disease is a growing problem in the whole world. It is important to find these patients in an early state of the disease because then they can be treated and dialysis treatment can be avoided. To measure the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) an invasive technigue is used. READ MORE

4. Acute inflammation in peritoneal dialysis. Experimental studies in rats. Characterization of regulatory mechanisms
Abstract : The predominant problems associated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) are ultrafiltration failure and peritonitis. PD maintains a state of intraperitoneal inflammation that affects the structure and function of the peritoneal membrane, potentially impairing ultrafiltration efficiency. READ MORE

5. Toxicity and biocompatibility of nanoparticles, and studies on oxidative stress and DNA damage
Abstract : Oxidative stress is associated with several diseases, either as a cause or a consequence. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one example of a disease in which elevated levels of oxidative stress are frequently reported. READ MORE
