    Abstract : Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumor (SI-NET) is the most common small bowel tumor in Europe and USA, with an annual incidence of around 0.3-1.3/100000 persons. READ MORE

  4. 2. The endocannabinoid system : a translational study from Achilles tendinosis to cyclooxygenase

    Author : Emmelie Björklund; Christopher Fowler; Peter Zygmunt; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The endogenous cannabinoids anandamide (arachidonoyl ethanolamide, AEA) and 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) exert their effect by activating cannabinoid receptors (CB). These receptors mediate a broad range of physiological functions such as beneficial effects in pain and inflammation, although little is known about the expression of CB receptors in human pain conditions.

    Abstract : The demand for wireless communications is increasing every year, but the available resources are not increasing at the same rate. It is very important that the radio resources are used in an efficient way allowing the networks to support as many users as possible. READ MORE

  6. 4. Environmental Considerations in the Zero-waste Valorisation of Bauxite Residue : A Life Cycle Perspective

    Author : Peter James Joyce; Anna Björklund; Hellweg Stefanie; KTH; []

    Abstract : Bauxite residue, also known as red mud, is produced in large quantities as a result of alumina refining (the first stage in aluminium production), and is one of the world’s most abundant and important industrial wastes. As demand for aluminium continues to increase and space to store this residue diminishes, the potential to utilise bauxite residue as a secondary resource is increasingly being considered by the alumina industry.

  7. 5. Calcium Homeostasis in Patients with Graves' Disease

    Author : Maria Annerbo; Per Hellman; Peter Stålberg; Peyman Björklund; Filipsson Nyström Helena; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Graves Disease; Calcium homeostasis; Total thyroidectomy; Bone metabolism; Calcium sensing receptor; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Abstract : Patients with Graves´ Disease (GD) have a higher risk of developing more severe and prolonged hypocalcaemia after total thyroidectomy (TT) than patients who undergo surgery for benign atoxic goitre. Since TT is the most effective treatment for GD, it is crucial to identify mechanisms for postoperative hypocalcaemia. READ MORE
