Sentinel node biopsy in breast cancer : aspects on validation, diagnostics and lymphatic drainage pattern
(2006-10-06)
Axillary lymph node status is the most important pathological determinant of prognosis in early breast cancer. Determination of axillary status is crucial in clinical decision-making. Total axillary lymphadenectomy is ...
Morbidity and mortality in patients with bundle branch block
(2006-05-19)
.33).
In study IV, a prospective cohort of 21685 cases of symptomatic CHF requiring hospitalization from RIKS-HIA in 1995 to 2003 was studied. LBBB was present in 20%. One-year mortality for LBBB and no LBBB was, 31.5% and 28.4% respectively. The unadjusted...
Viridans group streptococci septicaemia and endocarditis : molecular diagnostics, antibiotic susceptibility and cinical aspects
(2005-04-27)
was found in oral swabs from haematological patients where 25% of the VGS isolates were resistant to penicillin (MIC ≥ 4.0 μg/ml), which was higher that we had expected. This is an important observation because the oral cavity has been described as a genetic...
Synthesis of indole and oxindole derivates incorporating pyrrolidino, pyrrolo or imidazolo moieties
(2004-11-26)
ester was treated with a tosylimine. An alternative synthesis of the pyrroloquinolone was performed via a reduction of a 2,3,4-trisubstituted pyrrole obtained in turn by treatment of a vinyl sulfone with ethyl isocyanoacetate under basic conditions...

(2005-09-07)
The overall aim of this thesis was to gain knowledge of how Registered
Nurses (RN) are able to work together with family members of older people
living in community elder care facilities.

Tobacco smoking and vertical periodontal bone loss
(2005-05-18)
study populations, Swedish musicians and a Saudi Arabian population. All participants had a full set of intra-oral radiographs including 16 periapical and 4 bitewing projections that were assessed with regard to presence or absence of vertical defects...
Protein expression in prostate cancer
(2006-01-06)
The molecular pathology of prostate cancer (PCa) is complex and the pathways and the acquired molecular defects responsible for PCa initiation, development and progression are still largely unknown. Tumors of the prostate ...
Risk factors for haematological malignancies : immune-mediated diseases, body mass index and magnetic fields
(2006-11-03)
Haematological malignancies constitute approximately 7% of all cancer cases in Sweden, and leukaemia is in fact the most common malignancy among children. The few established risk factors, such as ionising radiation and ...
Hidden Markov models for remote protein homology detection
(2005-12-23)
genomes we predicted 120 sequences that lacked previous annotation as possible GPCRs. The majority of these predictions (102) were in C. elegans, but also 4 were found in human and 7 in mouse....
Predicting transmembrane topology and signal peptides with hidden Markov models
(2006-03-17)
Transmembrane proteins make up a large and important class of proteins. About 20% of all genes encode transmembrane proteins. They control both substances and information going in and out of a cell. Yet basic knowledge ...
