  1. 1. Surveillance and follow-up of early prostate cancer

    Författare :Mats Steinholtz Ahlberg; Anna Bill-Axelson; Lars Holmberg; Anna Lantz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; prostate cancer; active surveillance; follow-up; biochemical recurrence; triggers for transition to radical treatment; overdiagnosis; overtreatment.; Urologi; Urology;

    Sammanfattning : Active surveillance (AS) for prostate cancer was introduced to address overtreatment resulting from prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing. Despite advancements such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and targeted biopsies, PSA remains crucial in prostate cancer diagnostics, leading to ongoing challenges of overdiagnosis and overtreatment.

  3. 2. Battling Bacterial Biofilm - antibiotic regimens targeting Grampositive pathogens in biofilm

    Författare :Anna Holmberg; Sektion III; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biofilm; antibiotic susceptibility; prosthetic joint infection; MBEC; Enterococcus faecalis; Enterococcus faecium; Propionibacterium acnes.;

    Sammanfattning : AbstractBacteria in most environments encase themselves in a hydrated matrix of polysaccharide and protein, forming organized communities called biofilms. In the biofilm bacteria are protected against hostile environments. Biofilms are important clinically because of their persistence despite host defence and their recalcitrance to antimicrobials.

  4. 3. Effects of a Novel Amphiphilic Graft Copolymer on Ternary Mixtures of Surfactant, Water, and Oil

    Författare :Anna Holmberg; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TRFQ; PFG NMR; molecular self-diffusion; phase behavior; viscosity; amphiphilic polymer; oil-continuous microemulsion; light scattering; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : An amphiphilic graft copolymer, with hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether side chains grafted onto a hydrophobic poly(dodecyl methacrylate) backbone, has been synthesized. The side chains are water soluble and the backbone is soluble in oils such as cyclohexane and isooctane. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Risk faktors for fracture in middle-aged men and women

    Författare :Anna H Holmberg; Ortopedi - klinisk och molekylär osteoporosforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; risk factors; women; men; middle age; low-energy fracture; diabetes; mental health; hyperglycaemia; Public health; Folkhälsa; epidemiology; Prospective cohort study; epidemiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The number of fractures is increasing worldwide, and fractures frequently cause long-term disability, impaired quality of life and sometimes death. The Malmö Preventive Project, a population-based, prospective study, consisting of 22 444 men, mean age 44 and 10 902 women, mean age 50 years, provides data for evaluation of common public health conditions, such as fracture and diabetes.

  7. 5. Being provided with a safe haven : Care-dependent older persons' participation in prehospital emergency care

    Författare :Anna Hjalmarsson; Mats Holmberg; Margareta Asp; Birgitta Kerstis; Gunnel Östlund; Staffan Karlsson; Mälardalens universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute illness; Ambulance care; Collaborative care; Municipal home care; Older persons; Participation in care; Prehospital emergency care; Care Sciences; vårdvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Participation in care is a key concept in many welfare societies and serves to guide clinical practice and adapt care to personal preferences and needs in order to promote well-being and quality of life. Previous research has shown that practicing participation in care is complex due to the concept not being clearly defined. LÄS MER
