Investigation of regulatory T cells in anorexia nervosa
The aim of our study was to determine, how severe calorie restriction in anorexia nervosa (AN) may influence regulatory T (Treg) cells and their cellular networks, that is, their main inducers (dendritic cells...

HbA1c levels and erythrocyte transport functions in complication-free type 1 diabetic children and adolescents
Higher erythrocyte sodium-lithium countertransport activity (SLC) is implicated in the development of diabetic nephropathy. Altered glucose homeostasis and genetic susceptibility are claimed to play a role in...

Variance of ACE and AT1 receptor gene does not influence the risk of neonatal acute renal failure
High neonatal activity of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is crucial for the maintenance of glomerular filtration of the newborn. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether genetic polymorphis...

Monitoring cardiovascular changes during hemodialysis in children
Hemodialysis (HD) causes rapid volume shifts and circulatory changes. In chronic renal failure (CRF) Na+/K+ATP-ase is depressed, whereas endogenous digoxin-like factor (EDLF) is elevated. Our aim was to character...

Higher Osteocalcin Levels and Cross-Links Excretion in Young Men Born with Low Birth Weight
As the result of accelerated growth, the final height of infants born with low birth weight (LBW) is near to the normal. Limited data are available about the bone density and bone turnover just after completi...

Normal kidney function and elevated natriuresis in young men born with low birth weight
The aim of our study was to characterize renal function and its relationship to blood pressure in healthy young Caucasian men born with a birth weight under 2,500 g (LBW). Urinary protein patterns, N-acetylglucos...

Reproducibility of erythrocyte sodium-lithium countertransport activity and ambulatory blood pressure measurements in type 1 diabetes mellitus
We aimed to study the reproducibility of sodium-lithium countertransport [SLCT] activity and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring [ABPM] in type 1 diabetes. We did this by performing repeated measurements of ...

Effect of somatostatin on kidney function and vasoactive hormone systems in healthy subjects
The acute effects of i.v. somatostatin (250 mcg bolus followed by 250 mcg/h continuous infusion for two hours) on renal hemodynamics, renal electrolyte and water handling, and urinary excretion of catecholamin...

Effect of low-dose dopamine infusion on urinary prostaglandin E2 excretion in sick, preterm infants
In pharmacological doses dopamine (DA) will interact with several endocrine systems and both inhibit (prolactin, thyrotropin) and enhance (renin, angiotensin) hormonal release. In this study we have examined w...
