  1. 1. Att bota en prostata : Kastrering som behandlingsmetod för prostatahypertrofi 1893-1910

    Författare :Elin Björk; Ericka Johnson; Maria Björkman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; prostata; prostatahypertrofi; kastrering; medicinhistoria; kunskapsproduktion; kunskapsobjekt; maskulinitet; vetenskapshistoria;

    Sammanfattning : Avhandlingen behandlar den korta men intensiva perioden 1893–1910 då kastrering användes som behandlingsmetod för att bota prostatahypertrofi. Fokus för analysen är hur prostatan, prostatahypertrofi och testiklarna skapades som medicinska kunskapsobjekt. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Studies of in vivo prostate amyloidosis and autoimmune responses towards amyloid structures in neurodegeneration

    Författare :Kiran Yanamandra; Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Dina Raveh; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; amyloid; amyloidosis; immune reactivity; S100A8 A9; insulin; α-synuclein; Biochemistry; Biokemi; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : By using multidisciplinary analysis of CA inclusions in prostate glands of patients diagnosed with prostate cancer, we have revealed that their major components are the amyloid forms of S100A8 and S100A9 proteins associated with numerous inflammatory conditions and types of cancer. We have demonstrated that material closely resembling CA can be produced from S100A8/A9 in vitro and shows the characters of amyloids. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Human glandular kallikrein 2 (hK2) in prostate cancer: Clinical and Methodological studies

    Författare :Charlotte Becker; Malmö Klinisk kemi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Klinisk kemi; Clinical chemistry; screening; prostate cancer; PSA; Human glandular kallikrein; hK2; Cytology; oncology; cancerology; Cytologi; onkologi; cancer;

    Sammanfattning : Human glandular kallikrein 2 (hK2) is a predominantly prostate produced protein with many similarities to prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Just like for PSA elevated levels of hK2 can be found in men with protate cancer. We created an assay where hK2 in serum could reliably and with negligible cross-reactivity with PSA, be measured down to 0. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Development of Feedback Microwave Thermotherapy in Symptomatic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

    Författare :Sonny Schelin; Urologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; nephrology; Urologi; nefrologi; Urology; PET; Schelin Catheter; epinephrine; local anaesthetics; microwave thermotherapy; intraprostatic blood flow; PLFT; Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia; intraprostatic temperature; CoreTherm;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract: The purpose of this thesis was to evaluate ProstaLund Feedback Treatment® (PLFT®) and the CoreTherm® device with regard to biophysics, mechanisms of action, treatment indications, additional techniques, efficacy and safety in the treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The application of two biophysical equations in the PLFT software is explained. LÄS MER
