Abstract Purpose: To monitor cell death in tumors during the rejection process after treatment with an antibody radiolabeled with a β-emitter. Methods: Tumors during rejection after treatment with (177)Lu-labeled antibody BR96 and after administration of unlabeled BR96 were compared with untreated tumors from the same immunocompetent syngeneic rat tumor model. Cell death was monitored with the ter

The prognosis of HIV-1-infected patients has dramatically improved but progression to liver failure occurs now frequently in subjects coinfected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). This has raised the issue of organ transplantation, but the knowledge about the effect of concomitant antiretroviral and immunosuppressive therapy is limited. The objective of the study was to describe viral and immunological

Purpose: To evaluate the short-term feasibility, efficacy, and safety of a modular bifurcated stent-graft with an internal iliac artery (IIA) side branch for endovascular repair of aortoiliac aneurysms. Methods: Between 2002 and 2005, 10 male patients (median age 75 years, range 59–83) were treated with a bifurcated stent-graft that included a unilateral side branch for the IIA. The median diamet

Tau positron emission tomography ligands provide the novel possibility to image tau pathology in vivo. However, little is known about how in vivo brain uptake of tau positron emission tomography ligands relates to tau aggregates observed post-mortem. We performed tau positron emission tomography imaging with 18F-AV-1451 in three patients harbouring a p.R406W mutation in the MAPT gene, encoding tau

OBJECTIVE: To develop a prognostic model to predict disease outcomes in individual patients with Parkinson disease (PD) and perform an external validation study in an independent cohort.METHODS: Model development was done in the Comorbidity and Aging in Rehabilitation Patients: The Influence on Activities (CARPA) cohort (Netherlands). External validation was performed using the Cambridgeshire Park

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sammanfattning på Svenska: Avhandlingen handlar om tvångsvård av alkoholister och presenterar såväl metodologiska som kliniska studier av behandlingsutfall. Innebörd av tvångsvård Alkoholister kan uppleva många olika typer av påtryckning för att gå in i behandling. Fysisk och psykisk smärta, sociala påtryckningar från närstående eller arbetsgivare, samt olika typer avThis thesis concerns involuntary social treatment for alcoholism. Alcoholics who were compulsorily committed according to the Swedish Act of Care of Addicts in Certain Cases (LVM) were treated together with voluntary patients. They were followed up by mail questionnaires to patients, significant others and social workers. Self-reports were in satsifactory agreement with collateral reports concerni

Hemicraniectomy in patients with malignant middle cerebral artery (mMCA) infarct may be life-saving. The long-term prognosis is unknown. Patients with mMCA infarct treated with hemicraniectomy between 1998 and 2002 at three hospitals were included. The criterion for surgical intervention was if the patients deteriorated from awake to being responding to painful stimuli only. All patients were foll

Childhood cancer survivors face risks from a variety of late effects, including cardiac events, second cancers, and late mortality. The aim of the pan-European PanCare Childhood and Adolescent Cancer Survivor Care and Follow-Up Studies (PanCareSurFup) Consortium was to collect data on incidence and risk factors for these late effects among childhood cancer survivors in Europe. This paper describes

The use of hyperbranched polymers (HBPs) as a processing aid for linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) was investigated. Various generation (or pseudo-generation) HBPs were used which had either 16 carbon atom alkanes or a mixture of 20/22 carbon atom alkanes on the end groups. In addition, the degree of end group substitution was studied. Blends of up to 10% HBP content were mixed via extrusion

Studies on late effects in patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) are becoming increasingly important as survival is improving, and novel targeted drugs are being introduced. However, knowledge about late effects is limited. The aim of this population-based study was to describe the magnitude and panorama of late effects among patients treated with or without high-dose chemotherapy with autologo

This thesis is about the (anti-)novel Den svarta solen (’The Black Sun’), one of the Swedish experimental author Lotta Lotass’ (b. 1964) most challenging works. It contains 340 texts, all describing different interiors in a monotonous and similar manner, which are arranged as a “Choose Your Own Adventure” gamebook. This turns the novel into a labyrinth, which the reader more or less literally can

The purpose of this study was to gain deeper understanding of how family members to people who died from ALS or malign brain tumours experienced the time from when the diagnosis was given to the actual time of decease. The frame of questions during this investigation was: How was the diagnosis given? How did the family members experience the care provided by the hospital’s neurological department?

That eating plenty of vegetables, wholegrains and legumes is beneficial for health is well known. More surprising, however, is that people who eat in a environmentally-friendly way also display nutritional values that are better than researchers had expected. This is shown in a new study by Anna Stubbendorff at the Agenda 2030 Graduate School. The EAT–Lancet diet is a global dietary guideline deve

This Master’s project presents on the angular dependence of the intensity of the Raman active phonon modes of Black Phosphorus (BP), a layered 2D material with unique and attractive characteristics to the scientific and engineering community. Raman spectroscopy is an indispensable tool in quick and unobtrusive analysis of chemical structures. In this Master project, the structure of BP is analyzed

Objective. To make an inventory of quality and content of currently available and published sets of health care quality indicators (HCQIs) for RA and OA.Methods. A systematic review was performed for documents on the development and/or a description of HCQIs for the management of patients with RA and/or OA, using the PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane and CINAHL databases up to 1 December 20
