  1. 1. Genomics of population decline

    Author : Tom van der Valk; Katerina Guschanski; Aylwyn Scally; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; genetic diversity; minimal-invasive samples; population decline; inbreeding; genetic purging; eastern gorillas; Dryas monkey; Biologi med inriktning mot zooekologi; Biology with specialization in Animal Ecology;

    Abstract : With human populations forecasted to grow in the next decades, many mammals face increasing anthropogenic threats. The consequential population declines are a precursor to extinctions, as small populations are not only more sensitive to stochastic events, but reduction in population size is generally also followed by a decrease in genetic diversity, which in turn reduces adaptive potential and fitness of the population.

  2. 2. On minimally invasive approaches to sinus lift procedures

    Author : Lars-Åke Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; autogenous bone graft; bone formation; clinical study; cone beam computed tomography; dental implants; ; flapless surgery; hydroxyapatite; osteotome technique; partially dentate maxillae; sinus lift surgery;

    Abstract : Abstract Aims: The overall aim of the present thesis was to evaluate implant survival and bone regeneration after minimally invasive sinus lift procedures. Material and methods: In study I, 61 patients were prospectively evaluated 12 to 60 months after two different methods of locally bone harvesting methods adjacent to the maxillary sinus lift procedure.

  3. 3. Minimal conization with carbon dioxide laser for treatment of cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia

    Author : Zoltan Bekassy; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gynaecology; Obstetrics; preterm birth; pregnancy; laser; follow-up; conization; Cervical carcinoma; cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; andrology; reproduction; sexuality; Obstetrik; gynekologi; andrologi; reproduktion; sexualitet;

    Abstract : 3,100 non-pregnant women and 85 pregnants were miniconized during the 15-year period ending 1994 . The outpatient procedure of minimal conization using a freehand-guided, high power 60W carbon dioxide laser focused to 0.1 mm in spot-size, giving high power density 165,000 W/cm2, produces single-piece tissue specimens for histological examination.

  4. 4. Integrated microsystems for continuous glucose monitoring, interstitial fluid sampling and digital microfluidics

    Author : Federico Ribet; Niclas Roxhed; Göran Stemme; Boris Stoeber; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Microelectromechanical systems MEMS ; biosensors; biomedical devices; continuous glucose monitoring CGM ; glucose sensors; microneedles; interstitial fluid sampling; minimally-invasive technologies; electrochemical sensors; heterogeneous integration; wire bonding; magnetic assembly; electrowetting-on-dielectric EWOD ; digital microfluidics; ionic liquids; gas sensors; optical switches; laser shutters.; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Interdisciplinary research between medicine and microsystem engineering creates new possibilities to improve the quality of life of patients or to further enhance the performance of already existing devices. In particular, microsystems show great potential for the realization of biosensors and sampling devices to monitor bioanalytes with minimal patient discomfort. READ MORE

  5. 5. Multimodal treatment of gastric cancer : assessment of tumor regression and the role of minimally invasive surgery

    Author : Andrianos Tsekrekos; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The generally poor prognosis of advanced gastric cancer (AGC) has led to the development of multimodal therapeutic protocols in which surgery is combined with systemic treatment, perioperative chemotherapy being the preferred approach in Europe. In this context, there still are several issues that need to be addressed. READ MORE
