2. 1. Metabolic aspects on diabetic nephropathy

   Author : Maria Svensson; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin; invärtesmedicin; Internal Medicine;

   Abstract : Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is associated with morbidity and mortality due to cardiovascular disease and renal failure. This study focused on the impact of glycemic control on the development of DN and the metabolic consequences of DN. The euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp technique was used to assess insulin sensitivity and insulin clearance. READ MORE

   Author : Ibrahim El-Serafi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative treatment for several malignant and non- malignant diseases. The busulphan (Bu)/cyclophosphamide (Cy) combination is one of the most common conditioning regimens given prior to HSCT. READ MORE

5. 3. Renal function after transplantation of the liver and intestine

   Keywords : adult liver transplantation; pediatric liver transplantation; intestinal transplantation; multivisceral transplantation; immunosuppression; calcineurin inhibitors; glomerular filtration rate; renal function; nephrotoxicity; chronic kidney disease; renal replacement therapy; mortality;

   Abstract : Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) after liver (LT) or intestinal (IT) transplantation may decrease patient survival. Calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) play a major role in its development. Aims: Describe long term renal function and risk factors for developing CKD in adults and children after LT and IT. READ MORE

6. 4. Hypoglycaemia in pregnancy : hypoglycaemic clamp studies during and after pregnancy in women with IDDM

   Author : Anders Björklund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Adrenaline; cardiotocography; cognitive function; Doppler; fetal; fetal monitoring; growth hormone; hormonal counterregulation; hypoglycaemia; insulin; insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; metabolic clearance rate; placenta; pregnancy; subjective symptoms;

   Abstract : Problem: In pregnant women with IDDM a strict insulin regimen is generally instituted, which permits the possibility of a normal fetal outcome. This, however, increases the risk of hypoglycaemia, and a high prevalence of severe hypoglycaemia has been reported during pregnancy in these women. READ MORE
