16. Genetic Factors Contributing to Hypertension. With Emphasis on Hypertension in Type 2 Diabetes
Abstract : The causes of hypertension (HT) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are mainly unknown, but they arise from interplay between several genetic and environmental factors. The aim of this thesis was to investigate whether polymorphisms in putative candidate genes for HT increase the susceptibility to HT and/or T2DM. READ MORE

17. Genetic factors in primary hypertension- with emphasis on renal sodium reabsorption
Abstract : 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. READ MORE

18. Pharmacoepidemiologic studies on cardiovascular drugs - with special reference to the effectiveness and safety of blood pressure lowering drugs
Abstract : Background: Ischaemic heart disease (IHD) and stroke are the main causes of morbidity and mortality in developed countries and hence constitute a large public health problem. Cardiovascular drugs are used in an effort to prevent (e. g. blood pressure lowering drugs (BPLD) and lipid lowering drugs) and palliate (e. READ MORE

19. Epidemiology of diabetes in a well defined population in Sweden: the Skaraborg Diabetes Registry
Abstract : Time trends in prevalence, incidence and mortality was followed in 15000 diabetic patients in 1991?2005. Clinical findings, C-peptide protocols, and islet antibodies were compared in their ability to distinguish type 1 from type 2 diabetes, and factors associated with the prognosis of diabetes were explored.

20. Cardiovascular disease and adrenergic dysfunction in mild primary hyperparathyroidism
Abstract : Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is associated with cardiovascular morbidity and premature death, but the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. The aim of this thesis was to investigate cardiovascular parameters and adrenergic function in mild PHPT compared to healthy controls subjects before and after curative parathyroidectomy (PTX).
