  1. 11. Taking physical rehabilitation after abdominal cancer surgery further : by enhanced recovery and physical activity

    Författare :Andrea Porserud; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim with this thesis was to increase knowledge of standardised methods for individualised mobilisation and rehabilitation after abdominal cancer surgery. Concerning mobilisation, both effect, and patients’ experiences of a method for postoperative mobilisation were evaluated, as well as the association between early mobilisation (daily steps) and complications.

  3. 12. Improving chemotherapy in advanced urothelial cancer : real-world data studies and prospective clinical trials

    Författare :Karin Holmsten; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Advanced urothelial cancer (UC) is an aggressive disease with high morbidity and mortality. The primary aim of this thesis was to improve chemotherapy with respect to treatment efficacy, safety, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in advanced UC. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Muscle-invasive urinary bladder cancer is a deadly disease. Mortality rates remained unchanged for decades despite radical surgery.After several randomized trials, we today know that cisplatin based chemotherapy given prior to cystectomy, improves survival for every tenth patient.

  5. 14. Advanced Bladder Cancer. Aspects of Diagnosis and Treatment

    Författare :Johan Abrahamsson; Malmö Urologi - blåscancer; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Treatment of bladder cancer has seen few advancements in recent decades until the introduction of checkpoint inhibitors during the last few years. Bladder cancer diagnostics have been similarly impaired and the likely advent of novel treatments in the neoadjuvant setting will require new diagnostic tools in the preoperative setting in muscleinvasive bladder cancer.

    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bladder cancer; BCG; cisplatin; STMN1; emmprin; survivin; CCTα; biomarker; immunohistochemistry; IHC; tissue microarray; TMA;

    Sammanfattning : Bladder cancer is a potentially curable malignancy; however in regards to the state of current therapy regimens, a plateau has been reached in both the non-muscle and muscle invasive types. To obtain effective treatment, and consequently a decreased mortality, it has become imperative to test and understand aspects affecting therapy response. LÄS MER
