Diet and ovarian cancer : a population-based cohort of 60 000 women
(2005-05-06)
.0 (95% CI, 1.2-3.4; P trend = 0.01) for the highest versus
the lowest quartile of lactose intake. High consumption of milk, the main
source of lactose, was also associated with a greater risk of serous
ovarian cancer. The multivariate RR for women who...
Urothelial cell culturing : in vitro and in vivo studies in reconstructive pediatric surgery

expansion and using feeder cells only for initiation of the primary cell
culture. In addition, proliferation studies on feeder cells exposed to
different doses of radiation or cytostatics, in combination with
epithelial cell sub culturing, were...
Ante partum determination of lactate in amniotic fluid

mPGES-1 and the PGE2 pathway in arthritis
(2005-11-24)
Prostaglandins are a group of lipid mediators derived from essential fatty acids that act on cells in close proximity of their synthesis. Prostaglandins are produced in a cell specific manner by a variety of cells in ...
Skin cancer as seen by electrical impedance
(2004-11-05)
This thesis describes the relation between skin cancer and electrical impedance. On the cellular level, electrical impedance measured at clinically relevant frequencies is affected by e.g. membrane structure and orientation, ...
Bibliometrics as a research assessment tool : impact beyond the impact factor
(2006-10-27)
Introduction: While bibliometrics is frequently used as a tool for research assessment and is thought of as objective, quantitative and unobtrusive, the usability of bibliometric indicators has seldom been properly assessed ...
Biosynthesis of leukotriene B4 in hematological malignancies
(2005-05-27)
Leukotrienes (LT) are biologically active metabolites of the fatty acid
arachidonic acid (AA). After liberation of AA by phospholipase A 2 (PLA
2), this fatty acid can be converted to leukotrienes, lipoxins,
prostaglandins ...
Off-label drug treatment and related problems in children : a register-based investigation
(2006-04-21)
Introduction: There is a lack of pediatric documentation concerning efficacy and safety of many drugs, which may contribute to off-label drug treatment and increase the risk for adverse drug reactions (ADRs).
Aims: ...
Molecular genetic studies of psoriasis susceptibility in 6p21.3
(2005-02-18)
, the genetic contribution to the disease is strong. Several loci have been identified and among these, psoriasis susceptibility 1 (PSORS1) in chromosome region 6p21.3 is consistently described in populations of different ethnic background. A major factor...
On neck load among helicopter pilots : effects of head worn equipment, whole body vibration and neck position
(2005-09-13)
rotation, 2-3 % of neck flexion, and 1.5-2.5 % of trunk inclination. The use of NVG increased muscle activity in upper neck by 0.5-1.5 % and in lower neck by about 0.5 %. Results with added counterweight were about the same as with NVG. Muscle activity...
