  2. 16. Posttransplantational bone disease : the effect of immunosuppressive drugs on bone : clinical and experimental studies

    Author : Mohamed Mohamed Abdelhadi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Liver transplantation; hyperparathyroidism; bone density; renal transplantation; cyclosporine; prednisolone; tacrolimus; statin; growth plate; rats;

    Abstract : Osteoporosis and pathologic fractures are frequent complications ill patients with end-stage liver or kidney diseases. Although successful transplantation eliminates some factors related to poor organ function, all increased incidence of pathologic fractures was reported ill the early post-transplant period in spite of normalization of the allograft function.

  4. 17. Biopharmaceutical Evaluation of Intra-arterial Drug-Delivery Systems for Liver Cancer : Investigations in healthy pigs and liver cancer patients

    Author : Elsa Lilienberg; Hans Lennernäs; Erik Sjögren; Niklas Axén; Helen M. Burt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; in vivo release; drug delivery systems; local delivery; drug disposition; doxorubicin; hepatocellular carcinoma; transarterial chemoembolization; transarterial chemotherapy infusion; Pharmaceutical Science; Farmaceutisk vetenskap;

    Abstract : There are currently two types of intra-arterial drug-delivery system (DDS) in clinical use in the palliative treatment of primary liver cancer. The chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX) can be formulated into a drug-in-lipiodol emulsion (LIPDOX) or a microparticulate drug-eluting bead system (DEBDOX). READ MORE

  5. 18. Inhibition of acute allogaft rejection - experimental transplant studies with biological and chemical immunosuppressants

  7. 20. A covariance structure analysis approach to the errors-in-variables estimation problem

    Author : David Kreiberg; Fan Yang-Wallentin; Håkan Hjalmarsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; System identification; errors-in-variables models; structural equation modeling; confirmatory factor analysis; minimum distance estimator; separable nonlinear least squares; Statistics; Statistik;

    Abstract : It is a well-known fact that standard regression techniques, when applied to errors-in-variables (EIV) models, lead to biased and inconsistent parameter estimation. The work presented in this thesis address the EIV estimation problem using covariance structure analysis (CSA). READ MORE
