The focus is on the impact of cultural differences and the use of Swedish as a foreign language by physicians. LÄS MER

3. 2. Modeling glioblastoma growth patterns and their mechanistic origins

   Författare :Emil Rosén; Sven Nelander; Rebecka Jörnsten; Philip Gerlee; Kristin Swanson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; glioblastoma; invasion; image analysis; neural networks; Mathematics with specialization in Applied Mathematics; Matematik med inriktning mot tillämpad matematik; Oncology; Onkologi; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

   Sammanfattning : Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain cancer. GBM cells migrate away from the primary lesion and invade healthy brain tissue. The invading cells escape surgical resection, radiotherapy and develop resistance to chemotherapy. Consequently, despite treatment, recurrence is inevitable, and survival is only 14 months. LÄS MER

4. 3. The effect of intra-abdominal local anaesthetics following major gynaecological surgery. Clinical and experimental studies

   Författare :Jane M. Hayden; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Local anaesthetics; postoperative pain; hysterectomy; inflammation; ropivacaine toxicity; ovarian cancer; recovery; ovarian cancer cells;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Local anaesthetics (LA), in addition to inhibition of pain signalling, also have anti-inflammatory properties. In vitro studies have demonstrated anti-proliferative and cytotoxic effect of LAs on cancer cells when administered in therapeutic concentrations. LÄS MER

5. 4. Cell cycle regulatory proteins and miRNAs in premalignant lesions and breast cancer

   Författare :Sofie Björner; Malmö Patologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Early diagnosis and reliable prognosis and treatment prediction of breast cancer will ultimately lead to a decreased mortality rate. This can be achieved by identification of prognostic and treatment predictive biomarkers, and by understanding the mechanisms behind early changes in the breast. LÄS MER

7. 5. Glioma as an Ecosystem : Studies of Invasion, Onco-miR Addiction and Mast Cell Infiltration

   Författare :Jelena Põlajeva; Bengt Westermark; Ingemar Ernberg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glioblastoma; mast cell; miR-21; RAP1; CXCL12; SOX2;

   Sammanfattning : Despite recent advances in oncology and extensive research efforts, gliomas remain essentially incurable. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM, WHO grade IV) is the most common glioma and may arise de novo or progress from a lower-grade lesion. GBM is characterized by invasive growth, aberrant angiogenesis and necrosis. LÄS MER
