In addition to its physiological functions, serum albumin plays a role of neuroprotection in cerebrovascular stroke. The circulating levels of albumin may be reduced in patients with stroke due to the presence of a systemic inflammatory state and to the inadequacy of protein-energy intake. In the
Periodontitis has been demonstrated as a risk factor for ischaemic stroke in several clinical studies. Atherosclerosis of the cerebral vasculatureis an important pathological process causing ischaemic stroke. The investigator's study aims to investigate the relationship between tooth loss(used as a
The sustained inflammatory state in CKD is of complex pathogenesis and is believed to be in part attributable to the augmented activation of innate immune system cell subsets. The activation of the innate immune system plays an essential role within all the spectrum of cardiovascular disease in CKD,
Donor data Liver donor data are investigated following the "Donor Query" used for donor reports of the Organ Coordination Office of the Hungarian National Blood Transfusion Service. (http://www.ovsz.hu/sites/ovsz.hu/files/szervadomanyozas_dokumentum/donacio/donorlekerdezo-20 13-06-03.pdf) The donor
Diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) is the most common metabolic disease and its prevalence is rapidly increasing. T2DM is a chronic disease that affects over 451 million people in the world and this number is expected to increase over the years and it is estimated that in 2045 there will be in the
PhD project description
The arterial wall in patients with diabetes: Do changes in arterial basement membrane proteins predict future arterial disease? Are remodeling processes altered?
Applicant: Anne-Sofie Faarvang Thorsen1, MD
Main supervisor: Professor Lars Melholt Rasmussen1
Co-supervisors:
Rationale:
Cardiovascular events are the leading cause of death among patients with diabetes. Early identification of high-risk diabetic (DM) patients for intensification of preventive therapy may prevent cardiovascular events.
Aims:
Among biomarker (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide,
Preeclampsia is a multisystem disorder that complicates 3-5% of pregnancies and remains a major cause of maternal, fetal, and neonatal morbidity and mortality.(1)
Preeclampsia is characterized by the development of new onset hypertension (HTN) and the establishment of proteinuria. Other signs and
Our project is based on implementation of a telemonitoring and case management BP program for remote dwellers with diabetes and CKD in remote regions of Alberta. Our aim is to determine the impact of the intervention on BP control and other CKD risk factors, achievement of guideline-concordant
Hypertension is the main cardiovascular disease and the most important risk factor for severe lethal and disabling diseases such as stroke, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and chronic renal insufficiency. The higher the blood pressure level, the higher the risk of these diseases.
Patients were recruited with diagnosis of mild or medium dementia, according to criteria by NINCDS-ADRDA (National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke-Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Association) as probable or possible Alzheimer's disease. Upon signature of
This is a prospective study that will be conducted in the Main Operating theatres of UMMC on patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing elective pancreatectomy (includes all forms of pancreatectomy such as Whipple's procedure, total or distal pancreatectomy).
This study aim to determine the
Over one million infants are born to HIV-1-infected women every year in Sub Saharan Africa. In Zimbabwe, annual births stand at 379,000 with approximately 48,000 infants being born every year to HIV-1-infected women on lifelong highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Concerns have been
Title: Evaluation of the combined intraoperative monitoring of depth of analgesia (NOL), depth of anesthesia (BIS) and continuous hemodynamic data (Flotrac EV1000 system) on the patients' recovery after cytoreduction surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). A pilot
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effects of perioperative hemodynamic therapy (guided by cardiac output monitoring) on tissue oxygenation during (and after) DIEP flap breast reconstruction surgery. We hypothesize that a low-dose, perioperative dobutamine infusion combined with
