  2. 6. METABOLIC PROPERTIES OF RYE PRODUCTS Focusing on insulinaemia, glycaemic profile and appetite regulation in healthy subjects

    Author : Liza Rosén; Avdelningen för livsmedel och läkemedel; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rye; glycaemia; insulin resistance; type 2 diabetes; wholegrain; obesity;

    Abstract : The prevalence of metabolic disorders, such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and the insulin resistance syndrome (IRS) are increasing worldwide. However, disturbances in the metabolic status can be prevented by changing the daily diet towards more whole grains, vegetables, legumes and dairy products. READ MORE

    Abstract : The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) regulates nutrient uptake, secretes hormones and has a crucial gut flora and enteric nervous system. Of relevance for these functions are the G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and the solute carriers (SLCs). READ MORE

  5. 8. Probing intestinal permeability in man using different-sized, low-molecular-weight polyethyleneglycols and mathematical modelling

    Author : Tommy Sundqvist; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Selective intestinal permeability as reflected by the urinary recovery of low-molecular-weight polyethylene glycols (PEG 400) of dlfferentsizes after oral administration was characterized with a mathematical filter-function. There was relative loss of both large and small PEG molecules on their way from the intestine to the urine. READ MORE

  6. 9. Predicting mortality by comorbidity for patients with hip arthroplasty: Prospective observational register studies of a nationwide Swedish cohort : Prediktion av död baserat på samsjuklighet efter höftprotesoperation: Prospektiva registerstudier utifrån en nationell svensk kohort

    Author : Erik Bülow; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hip arthroplasty; orthopaedics; shared decision model; epidemiology; prediction model; mortality; comorbidity; R-package; orthopaedics; osteoarthritis; femoral neck fracture; restricted mean survival time;

    Abstract : INTRODUCTION: Patients with total hip arthroplasty (THA) due to osteoarthritis (OA) are usually healthy, some with a remaining lifetime of several decades after surgery. Patients with hip arthroplasty due to a femoral neck fracture (FNF) are often old and frail with 13 % mortality within 90 days of surgery. READ MORE

  7. 10. Pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes -role of defects in insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity

    Author : Devjit Tripathy; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; diabetology; Endokrinologi; sekretion; diabetologi; Endocrinology; secreting systems; Calpain 10 gene; genetics of type 2 diabetes; MODY; Endogenous glucose production; Disposition index; Botnia clamp; IGT; IFG; HOMA; insulin sensitivity; insulin secretion;

    Abstract : Type 2 diabetes is characterised by defects in insulin sensitivity, insulin secretion and increased endogenous glucose production. The relative contribution of each of these defects remains controversial. READ MORE
