  1. 11. Host-parasite interaction in men with febrile urinary tract infection

    Författare :Peter Ulleryd; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; urinary tract infection; fever; male; Escherichia coli; serotype; virulence; PSA; prostate; prostatitis; TRUS; urography; cystoscopy; treatment; ciprofloxacin;

    Sammanfattning : In a retrospective study, Escherichia coli isolates from 88 men with symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI) were analysed. A wide array of O:K:H serotypes commonly associated with acute pyelonephritis in women were identified. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Brownian Relaxation Measurements of Magnetic Nanoparticles: Towards the Development of a Novel Biosensor System

    Författare :Andrea Prieto Astalan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PSA; Magnetic susceptibility; Brownian relaxation; Biosensor; Prostate specific antigen; Magnetic nanoparticles; Frequency domain; Induction coils; Time domain;

    Sammanfattning : Magnetic measurements of the Brownian relaxation time of thermally blocked magnetic nanoparticles dispersed in a solution have been performed in order to determine the hydrodynamic size distribution of the particles. By measuring changes in the hydrodynamic size of the particles, the ammount of analytes attached to the surface of particles can be determined. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Quality of life aspects of being diagnosed and living with prostate cancer

    Författare :Oskar Bergengren; Anna Bill-Axelson; Ulrika Kreicbergs; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prostate cancer; Oncology; Active surveillance; Quality of life; Survivorship; Satisfaction; Choice; Adherence; Life-style change; PSA;

    Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is largely a heterogenous disease, ranging from almost harmless to highly aggressive. Most men are diagnosed with favorable-risk disease with a long life expectancy even without treatment. The risk of overdiagnosing and overtreating these men is substantial, with reduced quality of life as a result. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Early effects of castration therapy in non-malignant and malignant prostate tissue

    Författare :Nina Ohlson; Pernilla Wikström; Anders Bergh; Pär Stattin; Marja Nevalainen; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prostate cancer; human biopsies; androgen ablation; stroma; epithelium; micro-dissection; PSA; IGF-1; IGF-R1; AR; Pathology; Patologi;

    Sammanfattning : Early Effects of Castration Therapy in Non-malignant and Malignant Prostate Tissue BACKGROUND. Androgen ablation, the standard treatment for advanced prostate cancer, results in increased apoptosis, decreased cell proliferation and subsequent involution of the prostate gland. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Epididymal and accessory sex gland function and semen quality

    Sammanfattning : Infertility, defined as the inability to conceive after one year of unprotected regular intercourse, affects up to 15% of all couples of reproductive age. The infertility can originate from female, male or both partners. In up to 50% of the affected couples, a male factor is the cause of infertility. LÄS MER
