1. 1. Prostate cancer incidence, treatment and mortality : Empirical longitudinal register-based studies and methods for handling missing data

   Författare :Marcus Westerberg; Rolf Larsson; Hans Garmo; Pär Stattin; Jimmy Olsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; statistics; mathematics; prostate cancer; missing data; survival analysis; longitudinal models; incidence; treatment; mortality; Mathematical Statistics; Matematisk statistik; Statistics; Statistik; Urologi; Urology; Epidemiologi; Epidemiology;

   Sammanfattning : The diagnostic activity for prostate cancer has increased substantially in Sweden, primarily due to increased use of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing in asymptomatic men, and this has led to a large increase in diagnoses. There have also been changes in the diagnostic workup, guidelines, treatment strategies, and more effective treatments have been introduced in different phases of the disease. LÄS MER

3. 2. Migration of Sea Turtles from Caribbean Costa Rica: Implications for Management

   Författare :Sebastian Troëng; Biologiska institutionen; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Animal ecology; conservation; predation; remigration; annual survival probability; mtDNA; satellite telemetry; tagging; Costa Rica; Tortuguero; endangered; migration; Djurekologi; sea turtles;

   Sammanfattning : Tortuguero National Park in Costa Rica hosts nesting by four species of highly migratory and endangered sea turtles (green, hawksbill, leatherback and loggerhead turtles). Sea turtle research at Tortuguero has been continuous since Dr. Archie Carr began studies in the 1950?s. LÄS MER

4. 3. A Serendipitous Journey through Stochastic Processes

   Författare :Ludovico Theo Giorgini; John Scott Wettlaufer; Valerio Lucarini; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

   Sammanfattning : In this licentiate thesis I will present some new insights in different problems in the field of stochastic processes. A stochastic resonance system is studied using path integral techniques, originally developed in quantum field theory, to recover the optimal means through which noise self-organises before a rare transition from one potential well to the other.

7. 5. Prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia and influence of monocytic markers : epidemiological, clinical and experimental studies

   Författare :Maria Åström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of the first part of this thesis was to describe an unselected series of AML patients in adults ( > 15 years) from the three counties Orebro, Värmland and Södermanland 1987-1992, including cases un-referred from district hospitals. In the study of incidence and registration, also ALL and unspecified AL were included due to delimitation difficulties. LÄS MER
