    Nyckelord :Colon; Rectum; Computed tomography; Three-dimensional imaging; Colorectal neoplasms; Colonic polyps; Colonoscopy; Acceptance testing; Incidental findings; Diagnostic accuracy;

    Sammanfattning : The aim was to evaluate diagnostic potential, technical performance, and patient acceptance of CT colonography when used for detection of colorectal polyps and cancer in symptomatic patients with a high risk of colorectal neoplasia.Methods: After bowel preparation, 111 symptomatic patients underwent CT colonography followed by conventional colonoscopy.

  2. 2. Intestinal mucins 'soluble and insoluble problems'

    Författare :Annkatrin Herrmann; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; colorectal carcinoma; pulse labelling; organ culture; glycopeptide; small intestine; colon; glycoprotein complex; insoluble; muc2; MUC2; Mucin; mucus; carbohydrate; oligosaccharide.; Gastro-enterology; Gastroenterologi;

    Sammanfattning : Highly glycosylated glycoproteins – mucins – are the major constituents of the mucus layer and glycocalyx that cover mucosal surfaces. Twelve human mucin genes have been identified, and the mucins may be divided into those that are membraneassociated and those that are secreted. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Toxicological aspects of bile acids and human fecal water on cultured human colon carcinoma cells

    Författare :Björn Glinghammar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Colorectal tumorigenesis involves activation of mutations in proto-oncogenes, such as ras and c-myc, as well as mutations that inactivate tumor suppressor genes including the APC and the p53 gene. These genetic events, in turn, lead to epigenetic changes in signal transduction pathways, which regulate processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Colon cancer : management and outcome in a Swedish population

    Författare :Annika Sjövall; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Colonic carcinoma; Population-based study; loco-regional recurrence; hepatic metastasis; survival;

    Sammanfattning : Colon cancer is common in Sweden, with about 3500 new cases every year. Tumours of the colon and rectum are usually addressed as an entity. Great effort has been made to improve the outcome after rectal cancer treatment with subsequent improvement of survival. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Malignant transformation of the colorectal mucosa in inflammatory bowel disease

    Författare :Urban Sjöqvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Inflammatory bowel disease; ulcerative colitis; colorectal carcinoma; DNA-FCM; aneuploidy; dysplasia; Crohn s disease.;

    Sammanfattning : Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are disorders of unknown etiology, often referred to as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) in patients with longstanding, extensive colonic IBD is an important clinical problem. LÄS MER
