Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1212. 51 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9552-7. Patients with Graves ́ Disease (GD) have a higher risk of developing more severe and prolonged hypocalcaemia after total thyroidectomy (TT) than patients who unde...
متن کاملThymic hyperplasia in patients with Graves' disease.
BACKGROUND Graves' disease (GD) is commonly associated with other autoimmune conditions, and there is also a rare but well documented association between GD and thymic hyperplasia (TH). It is hard to say the real frequency of this latter association because most cases remain asymptomatic and are consequently not thoroughly investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed the literature on GD-r...
متن کاملPlasma levels of adrenomedullin in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
1. Adrenomedullin, a newly identified vasorelaxant peptide, participates in the regulation of the cardiovascular system. To investigate the pathophysiological significance of adrenomedullin in patients with acute myocardial infarction, we measured plasma levels of adrenomedullin. 2. Cardiac catheterization was performed on admission, after 1 day, and after 4 weeks in 36 patients with acute myoc...
متن کاملIncreased plasma levels of adrenomedullin in patients with pulmonary hypertension.
Adrenomedullin, a potent hypotensive peptide, reduces blood pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance, and increases pulmonary blood flow. The mRNA for adrenomedullin and its receptor is highly expressed in the lung, suggesting a regulatory role for adrenomedullin in the pulmonary circulation. To investigate the clinical significance of adrenomedullin in patients with pulmonary hypertension, w...
متن کاملMolecular forms of adrenomedullin in pericardial fluid and plasma in patients with ischaemic heart disease.
Experimental studies have demonstrated that adrenomedullin (AM) has a positive inotropic action and exerts inhibitory effects against ventricular remodelling as an autocrine and paracrine factor. However, there is no clinical evidence for AM acting as a local regulator in the human heart. We measured the levels of various molecular forms of AM, i.e. an active form of mature AM (AM-m), an interm...
