  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. Reducing the morbidity of transurethral resection of the prostate based on patient selection, fluid absorption, and blood loss

    Författare :Lars Sandfeldt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Absorption; blood loss; surgical; cardiovascular disease; electrocardiography; ethanol; finasteride; glycine; hemodynamics; intracranial pressure; mannitol; myocardium; personality; prostatectomy; prostatic hyperplasia; risk factors; ~urethral resection of prostate; ultrasonography; urodynamics.;

    Sammanfattning : A higher long-term mortality due to myocardial infarction after TURP, compared to open surgery, irrigating fluid absorption and blood loss, prompted this investigation of whether prostate size has any correlation with cardiovascular risk factors, whether two common fluids differ in terms of harmful effects, and whether premedication with finasteride may reduce the blood loss during TURP. Paper I; Fifty-two patients were studied before the treatment of their bladder outlet obstruction. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Transurethral microwave thermotherapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia : mechanisms of action and clinical outcome

    Författare :Marianne Brehmer; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :benign prostatic hyperplasia; transurethral microwave thermotherapy; clinical outcome; sham treatment; innervation; urethral sensitivity; necrosis; apoptosis; prostatic stromal cells in culture;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The therapeutic value of transurethral microwave thermotherapy (TUMT) in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a matter of debate. Aims: Evaluation of the clinical effect of TUMT and of various duration of the treatment; investigation of the kind and extent of tissue lesions induced by TUMT and of the mechanisms behind the therapeutic effect; investigation of the effect of heat on human prostate stromal cells in cell culture.

  4. 4. Development of Feedback Microwave Thermotherapy in Symptomatic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

    Författare :Sonny Schelin; Urologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; nephrology; Urologi; nefrologi; Urology; PET; Schelin Catheter; epinephrine; local anaesthetics; microwave thermotherapy; intraprostatic blood flow; PLFT; Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia; intraprostatic temperature; CoreTherm;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract: The purpose of this thesis was to evaluate ProstaLund Feedback Treatment® (PLFT®) and the CoreTherm® device with regard to biophysics, mechanisms of action, treatment indications, additional techniques, efficacy and safety in the treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The application of two biophysical equations in the PLFT software is explained. LÄS MER
