  1. 11. Identification, validation and clinical application of a three-gene signature for accurate prognosis prediction and treatment selection of newly diagnosed prostate cancer

    Författare :Zhuochun Peng; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a complete, comprehensive and stepwise approach of translational molecular research. Starting from whole-genome bioinformatics analyses based on the embryonic stem (ES) cell hypothesis, a three-gene signature was identified, validated with the goal of clinical application in order to optimize treatment decision based on improvement of overall survival estimation.

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma (NB) is one of the most common childhood cancers. Patients with low stage tumor have high survival rate, while those with advanced stage and/or unfavorable molecular biology have poor prognosis. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Pancreas Transplantation: Development of Successful Preclinical Models

    Författare :Wayne John Hawthorne; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; acute rejection; simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplant; portal venous drainage; systemic venous drainage; pancreaticoduodenal transplant; segmental pancreas transplant; duct-occlusion; autograft; Pancreas transplantation; allograft; hyperacute rejection; glucose metabolism.; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

    Sammanfattning : Pancreas transplantation is today a technically successful procedure and provides an alternative to insulin injections for the treatment of Type I diabetes mellitus. This thesis was undertaken while pancreas transplantation was developing and while several fundamental questions were being asked about both endocrine and exocrine drainage of the transplanted pancreas as well as how best to diagnose and prevent rejection.

  7. 15. Imaging of soft tissue tumors

    Författare :Hildur Einarsdóttir; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this project on soft tissue tumors, was to evaluate existing imaging methods and test new Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) sequences for diagnosis and assessment of cytotoxic therapy and to relate the imaging studies to cytology to explore the limitations of each procedure. Patients and method: The studies were based on patients with a soft tissue lesion diagnosed and treated at the Orthopedic Tumor Service at the Karolinska Hospital 1990-2003. LÄS MER
