  1. 1. Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumor : A Rare Malignancy with Favorable Outcome

    Författare :Olov Norlén; Peter Stålberg; Per Hellman; Peyman Björklund; Anders Sundin; Peter Naredi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neuroendocrine tumor; peritoneal carcinomatosis; single nucleotide polymorphism array; liver metastases; radiofrequency ablation; liver surgery; positron emission tomography; somatostatin analogs; cholecystectomy; Kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumor (SI-NET) is the most common small bowel tumor in Europe and USA, with an annual incidence of around 0.3-1.3/100000 persons. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Phospholipase C β3, and its role in endocrine tumorigenesis

    Författare :Peter Stålberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Phospholipase C beta 3; endocrine tumors; in situ hybridization; transfection; tumorsuppressor; differential expression; gene targeting; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicine; medicin;

    Sammanfattning : The Phospholipase C β3 (PLCB3) gene is located on chromosome 11q13, in the vicinity of theMultiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) suppressor gene. PLCB3 has been implicated inendocrine tumorigenesis based on findings of low expression in endocrine tumors, and the probableexistence of other suppressor genes located at 11q13. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Hypoparathyroidism after thyroid surgery- rates, risks, prevention and consequences

    Författare :Matilda Annebäck; Olov Norlén; Peter Stålberg; Jakob Hedberg; Erik Nordenström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; thyroidectomy; hypoparathyroidism; hypocalcemia; parathyroid hormone; vitamin D; health-related quality of life; Kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Hypoparathyroidism is the most common complication after thyroid surgery and associated with short- and long-term consequences. The lack of a consensus on the definition of hypoparathyroidism has led to a broad range in the rates reported in the literature. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Calcium Homeostasis in Patients with Graves' Disease

    Författare :Maria Annerbo; Per Hellman; Peter Stålberg; Peyman Björklund; Filipsson Nyström Helena; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Graves Disease; Calcium homeostasis; Total thyroidectomy; Bone metabolism; Calcium sensing receptor; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with Graves´ Disease (GD) have a higher risk of developing more severe and prolonged hypocalcaemia after total thyroidectomy (TT) than patients who undergo surgery for benign atoxic goitre. Since TT is the most effective treatment for GD, it is crucial to identify mechanisms for postoperative hypocalcaemia. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Molecular studies of endocrine tumors : Insights from genetics and epigenetics

    Författare :Samuel Backman; Per Hellman; Peter Stålberg; Olov Norlén; Robert Bränström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neuroendocrine tumors; Carcinoid; Pheochromocytoma; Aldosterone; Cancer; MEN1; Multiple endocrine neoplasia; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Endocrine tumors may be benign or malignant and may occur in any of the hormone producing tissues. They share several biological characteristics, including a low mutation-burden, and may co-occur in several hereditary tumor syndromes. The aim of this thesis was to identify genetic and epigenetic aberrations in endocrine tumors. LÄS MER
