   Abstract : Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) constitute about 8% of the human genome. There are around 4000 pol-containing retroviral integrations in the human genome, which makes it impractical to measure each of them separately. READ MORE

5. 3. Ovarian tumors. Prevalence, malignancy risk and significance of the Plasminogen activation system

   Author : Christer Borgfeldt; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []

   Abstract : The aims were to assess the prevalence of ovarian tumors in fertile asymptomatic women and to evaluate the risk of ovarian cancer in women with a history of benign ovarian tumors and endometriosis. In order to search for biomarkers in ovarian tumors, the plasminogen activating (PA) system was studied. READ MORE

6. 4. Clinical implementation of novel diagnostic biomarkers for epithelial ovarian cancer - Can we improve diagnosis?

   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ovarian neoplasms; EOC; Diagnosis; protein biomarkers; HE4; CA125; Algorithms; RMI; ROMA; NGS; rare mutations; liquid biopsies; screening;

   Abstract : Background: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecologic cancer. The 5-year survival is about 30%, a consequence of failure to establish early diagnosis due to unspecific symptoms. READ MORE

7. 5. Pathophysiological factors and genetic association in endometriosis

   Author : Johanna Sundqvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Introduction: Endometriosis is a common benign gynecological disease where endometrial tissue forms lesions outside the uterine cavity. Endometriosis is estimated to affect about 10% of women of reproductive age, rising to 20-40% in patients with infertility, with a significant impact on physical, mental and social well-being of those affected.
