Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Determination of Human Body Composition. Methodological and Applied Studies
(2009-02-06)
Background: Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provide important research opportunities due to their unique capability of characterizing and quantifying tissues and organs. Ionizing radiation is ...
CT Colonography: implementation and technical developments
(2009-09-29)
Background: Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) is a minimally invasive imaging method for the detection of colorectal neoplasms. Uncertainty about its diagnostic performance, optimal visualization method, long learning ...
CARDIOTHORACIC TRAUMA: A Scandinavian Perspective
(2007-05-21)
Background: Trauma in general is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and causes more loss of productive years than ischemic heart disease and malignancy together. Cardiothoracic trauma occurs in 60% of ...
Improved bioenergetic recovery during experimental ischemia and reperfusion by irradiation
(2007-11-16)
Prolonged ischemia and reperfusion frequently occur during clinical operations. The bioenergetic status decreases during ischemia and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are formed during reperfusion, which may lead to irreversible ...

Clinical and molecular studies of liposarcoma
(2007-05-21)
Aims: (1) To analyse clinicopathological characteristics, treatment and outcome of liposarcoma, and to determine whether, and how, the Scandinavian Sarcoma Group (SSG) treatment guidelines were followed; (2) to analyse ...
Invasive and Metastatic Properties of Advanced Prostate Cancer
(2009-05-15)
Prostate cancer is initially androgen-dependent (AD) and therefore androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is generally used to treat advanced prostate cancer. However, the long-term treatment effects are insufficient and over ...
Cervical and intra-amniotic markers of preterm birth and infection
(2009-03-16)
Abstract
Background: Preterm delivery (PTD; < 37 gestational weeks), is one of the greatest unsolved obstetrical problems
worldwide. As much as 80% of the perinatal mortality and 50% of the long-term neurological handicaps ...
CC16 in allergy and allergic inflammation
(2008-03-10)
Clara cell 16-kDa (CC16) is an anti-inflammatory protein mainly produced in the lung epithelium by Clara cells. Patients with asthma have lower levels of CC16 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum compared with healthy ...
Factor V Leiden mutation and pregnancy. Haemostasis during pregnancy in non-carriers and carriers of factor V Leiden mutation, with special emphasis on placenta-mediated and venous thromboembolic complications and on blood coagulation and fibrinolysis markers for prediction of complications
(2009-10-12)
Factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation elevates the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in general. During pregnancy, the haemostatic balance is changed in the direction of hypercoagulability, resulting in an increased incidence ...
