   Sammanfattning : This long-period (1970-1997) longitudinal clinical and epidemiologic study elucidated risk factors, diagnosis and causative agents of acute pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), more importantly Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Ng) and Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct), and analysed the occurrence of late sequelae, particularly ectopic pregnancy (EP), and prevention.Totally 2574 patients (age 14-55 years) were hospitalised and treated for PID.

   Sammanfattning : The objectives of this case-control study, investigating 51 in-patient women with acute pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and 50 healthy women attending for routine gynecological check-up, were to investigate the background and reproductive history of women, who are considered at low risk of sexually transmitted infection presenting with PID, to examine whether intrauterine device (IUD) use per se and long use affects the microbiology and clinical course of the disease, to identify risk factors for PID and to examine whether IUD use is an independent risk factor for PID.The most striking difference regarding the background and reproductive history between women with PID and healthy women over age 25 were related to socio-demographic factors and not to common risk factors for PID.

   Sammanfattning : Background: Epithelial ovarian cancer and borderline ovarian tumors consist of several histotypes in which high-grade serous carcinoma is the most common. The majority of epithelial ovarian tumors are considered to originate in the fimbriated end of the fallopian tubes. What initiates these tumors is far from completely understood. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Radiotherapy cures patients from deadly cancer, alone or in combination with other treatments. The photons must pass through normal tissue to converge on the tumor, and it is unavoidable that radiotherapy causes acute as well as late adverse effects. LÄS MER
