Background: Abiraterone acetate (AA) is an androgen biosynthesis inhibitor shown to prolong life in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) already treated with chemotherapy. AA treatment results in dramatic declines in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in some patients and no declines in others, suggesting the presence of molecular determinants of sensitivity in tumors. Objective:

BACKGROUND: Oxaliplatin and Mitomycin C (MMC) are both suitable as intraperitoneal chemotherapy agents in HIPEC for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) of colorectal cancer (CRC).METHODS: Patient cohorts from two different HIPEC-centers underwent cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC with Oxaliplatin (39 patients) and MMC (56 patients), respectively. They were compared for toxicity and survival data. The ext

Clinical trials frequently include multiple end points that mature at different times. The initial report, typically based on the primary end point, may be published when key planned co-primary or secondary analyses are not yet available. Clinical Trial Updates provide an opportunity to disseminate additional results from studies, published in JCO or elsewhere, for which the primary end point has

PURPOSE: Early identification of the underlying cause of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is important for treatment and prognosis. This study aims to investigate the association of hematoma volume and other clinical parameters on the distribution of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) probability according to the simplified Edinburgh CT criteria in a large, unselected intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) p

Objective: Vaginal hysterectomy combined with uterosacral suspension (USLS) is a technique for treating pelvic organ prolapse. Vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) has been described as an alternative minimal invasive approachfor treating various gynecological and non-gynecological pathologies. The aim was to compare the surgical time between conventional vaginal hyster

Oil palm plantation expansion is occurring at a rapid pace. However, substantial yield losses from pest attacks are becoming major threats to the oil palm industry, while the potential role of conservation biological control, a sustainable and environmentally friendly solution for pest control, is still largely unknown. The type of vegetation surrounding oil palm plantations is likely to influence

This thesis aims to investigate the results of the Nordic Swan label on mutual fund flows. As consumers starts to increasingly demand more sustainable investment alternatives, the fund distributers have subsequently started investigating new products with focus on sustainability. In October 2017, the Nordic Swan labelled their first funds containing 25 specific sustainability criteria. The funds s

DynahMat is an ongoing project at the Packaging Logistics department at Lund University, which aims to reduce food waste by establishing the true quality and shelf life of chilled goods through a dynamic shelf life prediction (DSLP) service. The idea behind the service is, throughout the entire supply chain, to measure temperature and microbial growth using sensors attached to the package. The inf

Det här examensarbetet undersöker hur stor yta av Lunds tätort man kan frigöra från parkeringsplatser i tre olika framtida scenarier. Dessa scenarier utspelar sig ungefär år 2040 och handlar om tre varianter av bilpoolslösningar. Bilen tar fysiskt upp mycket yta i staden. Detta har bl.a. undersökts i tidigare examensarbeten, men med fokus på utvecklingen av andelen tätortsyta som låses av trafiklöThis master thesis examines how much of the urban area of the city of Lund, could be released from parking space in different future scenarios. These scenarios are based on three different options of car sharing and unfold around year 2040. Historically city planning has had various influences from different centuries with both economic and military ideals. But the 20th century and the introducti

Det finns inga internationella åtaganden som innebär en skyldighet för Sverige att ge parter i tvistemål tillgång till en prövning av en andra instans. Dock ska parter enligt Europakonventionen om skydd för de mänskliga rättigheterna och de grundläggande friheterna tillförsäkras en rätt till domstolsprövning och en rättssäker process. En möjlighet till överprövning av den första instansens avgöranEven though the definition of legal certainty is controversial, it may be considered generally accepted that the substantive aspect of legal certainty requires that judicial decisions are substantially right. It is also quite clear that the formal aspect of legal certainty includes a requirement of predictability concerning judicial decision making. Sweden has no enforceable international obliga

Föreliggande uppsats har baserats på ett empiriskt utvärderingsmaterial (enkät), där syftet är att beskriva och analysera uppskattningsvis 1 700 studerandes upplevelser av Kunskapslyftet i Landskrona över en fyraårs period, år 1998-2001. Utgångspunkten var min erfarenhetsbaserade kunskap av de studerande på Kunskapslyftet i Landskrona där jag varit projektsamordnare. Med stöd av två teoretiska per

The overarching objective of this study was to produce a disaggregated SMOS Soil Moisture (SM) product using land surface parameters from a geostationary satellite in a region covering a diverse range of ecosystem types. SEVIRI data at 15 min temporal resolution were used to derive the Temperature and Vegetation Dryness Index (TVDI) that served as SM proxy within the disaggregation process. West A

How fish eyes may save yours?According to the World Health Organization, cataract was responsible for over half of the blindness world-wide in 2010. Getting a cataract means that the lens inside your eye gets clouded, preventing clear, sharp vision. Cataract can be caused by age, physical trauma, genetics, or even skin disease. It can virtually happen to everyone. It is possible to fix cataract byI have investigated some of the biological regulatory mechanisms governing the development of crystalline lenses. I used fish as model animals because they possess optically interesting lenses, while the geometrical simplicity of fish lenses allows for studies that are difficult or impossible with the lenses of other animals.First we have investigated lens optical plasticity by measuring longitudi

Objectives Exposure to aluminium compounds, such as fluorides in gaseous and particulate form, places people who work in potrooms at risk for respiratory symptoms. Workers in potrooms, however, also are exposed to a number of other air contaminants. In this study, we present the first report of a dose-response relationship after exposure to potassium aluminium tetrafluoride (KAlF4) and the influen
