  1. 1. Prostate cancer : epidemiological studies of risk factors

    Författare :Camilla Thellenberg Karlsson; Beatrice Malmer; Henrik Grönberg; Anders Bergh; Peter Iversen; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prostate cancer; epidemiology; SNP; BRCA2; male breast cancer; inflammation; BPH; P53; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : In spite of the fact that prostate cancer is the most common male cancer in both Sweden and many other countries in the developed world, little is known of risk factors and predisposing conditions. The only well recognized risk factors are age, race and familial aggregation. LÄS MER

  2. 2. On investigations of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms due to suspected bladder outlet obstruction

    Författare :Tomas Knutson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; LUTS; BPH; bladder outlet obstruction; overactive bladder; pressure flow studies; PGA-stents;

    Sammanfattning : Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are caused by a variety of different diseases, including cancer in the urinary tract, overactive bladder (OB) and bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). In order to find the most plausible cause of the patientís LUTS, a number of different investigations have been developed. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Transurethral resection of the prostate: studies on efficacy, morbidity and costs

    Författare :Erik Sagen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Transurethral resection of the prostate; BPH; Urinary retention; Complications; Healthcare costs; LUTS;

    Sammanfattning : Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), based on benign prostatic enlargement (BPE), are increasingly common, in ageing men. A considerable amount of men will ultimately progress with deteriorating symptoms or with the occurrence of complications secondary to obstruction of the bladder outlet, for example, urinary retention (UR).

  4. 4. On the natural history, diagnosis and treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia

    Författare :Stepan Vesely; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Lower urinary tract symptoms LUTS ; benign prostatic hyperplasia BPH ; bladder outlet obstruction; transurethral prostatectomy TURP ; transurethral microwave thermotherapy TUMT ;

    Sammanfattning : There are a number of important issues which remain unknown or poorly understood in the natural history of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The standard investigation of patients with BPH gives controversial results in relation to the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). LÄS MER

  5. 5. A functional genomics approach to study prostate disorders

    Nyckelord :Prostate cancer; BPH; androgen; DNA microarray; gene expression; CGH; SKY; oxidative stress.;

    Sammanfattning : Benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer (PCa) are the two most common prostatic disorders in elderly man. Currently, the causes of both diseases are still not clear. However, androgen is a well recognized risk factor for both diseases. LÄS MER
