1. 11. Clinical pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modelling of 5a-reductase inhibitors for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia

   Författare :Per Olsson Gisleskog; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacy; FARMACI; PHARMACY; FARMACI; Biopharmaceutics; biofarmaci;

   Sammanfattning : Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a potent androgen necessary for the development of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is formed from testosterone by the enzyme 5α-reductase, of which there are two types. The irreversible 5α-reductase inhibitors dutasteride, which inhibits both isozymes, and finasteride, which inhibits only one, are intended for the treatment of BPH. LÄS MER

3. 12. Physical Aspects of Thermotherapy - A study of heat transport with a view to treatment optimisation

   Författare :Johan Olsrud; Sektion V; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; magnetic resonance; non-invasive; temperature; coagulation; prostatic; menorrhagia; liver tumour; finite element method FEM ; thermal conductivity; intracavitary; interstitial; laser; Thermotherapy; hyperthermia; MRI; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Medicin människa och djur ; Physics; Fysik; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Olsrud;

   Sammanfattning : Local treatment with the aim to destruct tissue by heating (thermotherapy) may in some cases be an alternative or complement to surgical methods, and has gained increased interest during the last decade. The major advantage of these, often minimally-invasive methods, is that the disease can be controlled with reduced treatment trauma and complications. LÄS MER

4. 13. Everyday problems in men with prostate cancer. Aspects of micturition, indwelling urinary catheter treathment and sexual life

   Författare :Liselotte Jakobsson; Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; oncology; Cytology; sexualitet; reproduktion; andrologi; gynekologi; Obstetrik; sexuality; reproduction; andrology; Nursing care needs; Micturition; Quality of life; cancer; onkologi; Cytologi; cancerology; Prostate cancer; Nursing care; Benign prostatic hyperplasia; Sense of Coherence; Indwelling urinary catheter treatment; Sexual life problems; gynaecology; Obstetrics;

   Sammanfattning : The aim was to investigate the presence of everyday problems in men with prostate cancer, their relation to health-related quality of life, HRQOL, and sense of coherence, SOC, and to compare with men with benign prostatic hyperplasia, BPH, and a sample from the general population. The aim also was to investigate what nursing care needs there were in men with prostate cancer and how these were met during an in-patient period. LÄS MER

5. 14. Regulatory Proteins in Progenitors and Differentiated Cells of the Human Prostate

   Författare :Jens Ceder; Malmö (Abrahamsson) Urologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mesenchymal stem cells; somatostatin; transit amplifying cells; cell differentiation; adult stem cells; Prostate gland; prostatic benign hyperplasia; neuroendocrine cells; prostate cancer;

   Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer (PC) develops from an androgen-dependent tissue that contains androgen receptors in both the stromal and glandular compartments. Surgical removal of the prostate may cure the patient, but if metastatic spread has occurred, androgen suppression therapy is the standard treatment. LÄS MER

7. 15. The use of ethanol as a marker to detect and quantify the absorption of irrigation fluid during transurethral resection of the prostate

   Författare :Hans Hjertberg; Lennart Jorfeldt; Eberhard Varenhorst; Bo Johan Norlén; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Ethanol monitming; expired breath ethanol; irrigation fluid absorption; transurethral resection of the prostate; benign prostatic hyperplasia; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Sammanfattning : During transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), the irrigation fluid is often absorbed by the circulatory system and/or the region around the prostate occasionally resulting in severe signs and symptoms. Instant detection and quantification of absorption of irrigation fluid have not been possible earlier. LÄS MER
