Popular Abstract in Swedish Omkring 16% av alla cancerfall i världen beräknas vara orsakade av infektioner och omkring 5% av dessa orsakas av humant papillomvirus (HPV). HPV har etablerats som orsak till livmoderhalscancer och kondylom (könsvårtor). HPV-typer som förekommer på hud har förknippats med icke-melanom hudcancer såsom skivepitelcancer (SCC) men också ofarliga hudhudförändringar som akti
Popular Abstract in Swedish Prostata cancer är Sveriges vanligaste cancerform. Många patienter med prostata cancer kan bli botade med kirurgi. I en del fall är kurativt syftande behandling inte möjlig. Dessa patienter behandlas då med hormonbehandling. Hormon behandling går ut på att hämma effekten av det maligna könshormonet, testosteron, som både den normala prostata körteln och tumörcellerna ärHormone refractory prostate cancer occurs when androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) fails to stop the growth of prostate cancer for any longer. Recent studies point towards a role for neuroendocrine (NE) differentiation in the development of hormone refractory disease. It has been hypothesized that NE-differentiated malignant tumor cells survive during ADT and promote development of androgen-indepen
Bell's palsy is an acute unilateral weakness or paralysis of the face of unknown cause. The incidence of the disease is 30 individuals per 100,000 per year. It is a diagnosis of exclusion and other known causes for acute peripheral facial palsy must be ruled out. The prognosis is overall favorable and about 70% of the patients recover completely within 6 months without treatment. Recent randomized
Swedish welfare policy has in several ways promoted the individual rather than the family as a unit. This is not a phenomenon happening only in Sweden, but one occurring in many other Western countries where individualization is strongly emphasized. Sweden is, however, interesting as an example of a country with deep collective roots regarding issues of welfare. The welfare state has been, and to
This review covers automatic control of continuous aeration systems in municipal wastewater treatment plants. The review focuses on published research in the 21st century and describes research into various methods to decide and control the dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration and to control the aerobic volume with special focus on plants with nitrogen removal. Important aspects of control system i
Brachyradia, new genus, is proposed and described for two new species of the tribe Exechiini (Diptera: Mycetophilidae) from the Oriental and Australasian regions. The type species, Brachyradia asianca, new species, is described from Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia (Sulawesi), and a second species, Brachyradia australis, new species, from Indonesia (Sulawesi) and Papua New Guinea. The systematic
This paper presents a review of and a comparison between two different methods to solve an inverse scattering problem in the time domain. The problem is that of propagation of transient electromagnetic waves in spatially inhomogeneous slabs of finite length. The permittivity and conductivity profiles are assumed to vary only with depth and the scattering problem is thus onedimensional. Several alg
