  1. 11. Reproductive Factors and Breast Cancer - Parity, Breastfeeding and Genetic Predisposition in Relation to Risk and Prognosis

    Författare :Salma Butt; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; subgroups; stage; survival; Breast cancer risk; parity; nulliparity; multiparity; breastfeeding; age at first birth; single nucleotide polymophisms;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to study reproductive factors and genetic polymorphisms in relation to breast cancer risk and survival. An important component of this was to investigate the risk of specific breast cancer subgroups. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Colorectal Cancer - Evaluation of MMP as a prognostic marker and a model for peritoneal response

    Författare :Andreas Jonsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Colorectal neoplasms; matrix metalloproteinases; colorectal surgery; survival; prognosis; peritoneum; peritoneal neoplasms;

    Sammanfattning : Background : There are about 6600 patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer in Sweden each year. Survival rates vary with cancer stage at diagnosis. The main treatment is surgery together with, in some cases, oncological treatment. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are deeply involved in the growth and spread of colorectal cancer tumours. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Gut microbiota in colorectal cancer : The importance of Parvimonas micra

    Författare :Thyra Löwenmark; Richard Palmqvist; Sofia Edin; Pär Larsson; Michael Dahlberg; Per Hellström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Colorectal cancer; mucosal microbiota; Parvimonas micra; Fusobacterium nucleatum; immunity; survival; biomedical laboratory science; biomedicinsk laboratorievetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a heterogenous disease consisting of multiple molecular subtypes, each of which has diverse treatment responses and prognoses. The importance of the gut microbiota in CRC development and progression has undergone increasing recognition in recent years, with a structural segregation in terms of microbial composition between CRC patients and healthy controls.

  5. 14. Investigation of immune cell-derived factors as potential biomarkers in patients with colorectal cancer

    Författare :Levar Shamoun; Dick Wågsäter; Jan Dimberg; Kalle Landerholm; Blanka Kolodziej; Richard Palmqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gene polymorphism; Colorectal cancer; Immunoregulation; Prognosis; Gene and protein expression; Survival; Zmynd15; Genpolymorfism; Kolorektal cancer; Immunreglering; Prognos; Gen- och proteinuttryck; Överlevnad; Zmynd15; Biomedical Laboratory Science; Biomedicinsk laboratorievetenskap; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi; Patologi; Pathology;

    Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer related death. It is a heterogeneous disease involving multiple molecular pathways that result in differing phenotypes. Individual variability in CRC susceptibility is influenced by genetic variation, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).

  7. 15. Surgery for rectal cancer : the impact of perioperative factors

    Författare :Daniel Kverneng Hultberg; Martin Rutegård; Jörgen Rutegård; Peter Matthiessen; Markku Haapamäki; Lydrup Marie-Louise; Tom Öresland; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rectal cancer; abdominal surgery; anastomotic leakage; anastomotic dehiscence; postoperative complications; vascular tie; ligation level; oncologic outcome; surgical oncology; survival; recurrence; functional outcome; urogenital; anorectal; incontinence; NSAID; COX; Surgery; kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Rectal cancer is one of the most common and deadly cancer forms worldwide. A large proportion of rectal cancer patients are surgically treated with curative intention, with anterior resection being the most frequently used method today. LÄS MER
