1. 16. Behind the Screen : -Internet-Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to Treat Depressive Symptoms in Persons with Heart Failure

   Författare :Johan Lundgren; Peter Johansson; Tiny Jaarsma; Anita Kärner Köhler; Gerhard Andersson; Cecilia Fagerström; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cognitive behavioural therapy; Depression; Heart failure; Internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy; Patients’ experiences; Self-care; Telehealth; Depression; Egenvård; Hjärtsvikt; Internetbaserad kognitiv beteendeterapi; Kognitiv beteendeterapi; Patienters upplevelse; Telehälsa;

   Sammanfattning : IntroductionThe prevalence of depressive symptoms in persons with heart failure is higher than in age- and gender-matched populations not suffering from heart failure. Heart failure in itself is associated with an unpredictable trajectory of symptoms, a poor prognosis, high mortality and morbidity, and low health-related quality of life (HrQoL). LÄS MER

3. 17. The efficacy of bacterial viruses against multi-resistant Escherichia coli: from isolation to pharmacology

   Författare :Mohammadali Khan Mirzaei; Anders Nilsson; Rob Lavigne; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Phage therapy; Multiresistant E. coli; Pharmacodynamics; Pharmacokinetics; Bacterial viruses; Genomic; proteomic; molekylärgenetik; Molecular Genetics;

   Sammanfattning : The increase of multi-resistant bacteria highlights that the golden era of antibiotics is ending and that alternative treatmentsare urgently needed. Phages have been historically used to treat bacterial infections prior to the discovery of antibiotics and have gained renewed interest in the past decade. LÄS MER

4. 18. Developing and evaluating dose calculation models for verification of advanced radiotherapy

   Författare :Jörgen Olofsson; Mikael Karlsson; Anders Ahnesjö; Crister Ceberg; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiation therapy; high-energy photons; dose calculation; multi-source model; pencil kernel; uncertainties; action levels; Radiological physics; Radiofysik;

   Sammanfattning : A prerequisite for modern radiotherapy is the ability to accurately determine the absorbed dose (D) that is given to the patient. The subject of this thesis has been to develop and evaluate efficient dose calculation models for high-energy photon beams delivered by linear accelerators. LÄS MER

5. 19. MRI evaluation and image processing in gel dosimetry. A study of selected MRI properties and image processing in 3D gel dosimetry

   Författare :Peter Magnusson; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Klinisk fysiologi; medical instrumentation; tomography; radiology; Clinical physics; image registering; multi-slice; slice profile; ferrous sulphate; polyacrylamide; 3D volume acquisition; RF field; B1 field; relaxation time; T1; T2; spin-echo; multi-spin-echo; stochastic noise; nonuniformity; SNR; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering; Radiopharmaceutical technology; Radiofarmaceutisk teknik; Physics; Fysik;

   Sammanfattning : Gel dosimetry is a new dosimetry method applied in radiation therapy. Gel dosimeters consist of a radiation sensitive gel, which can integrate absorbed doses from several radiation sources or beams. The dose to the gel can be evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a procedure that is the focus of the present thesis. LÄS MER

7. 20. Improving surgical therapy for oesophageal cancer

   Författare :Sheraz Rehan Markar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Despite advances in multimodality treatment, surgery remains the mainstay of curative treatment for oesophageal cancer. However short- and long-term mortality from oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer still shows large variations nationally and internationally. This thesis addresses three themes concerning oesophageal cancer surgery. LÄS MER
