6. Biodegradable magnesium implants, immunomodulation, and tissue repair/regeneration
Abstract : The century-old paradigm of holding fractures with a metallic implant to enable bone repair, known as osteosynthesis, is still used today without alteration. Patients are increasingly being treated with metallic implants made of magnesium (Mg) that secure osteosynthesis and are reabsorbed in situ without the surgical re-entry that requires their permanent analogs.

7. Prognostic factors in soft tissue sarcoma. Tissue microarray for immunostaining, the importance of whole-tumor sections and time-dependence
Abstract : In adult soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of the extremities and trunk wall, improved prognostic factors are needed to identify patients at high-risk for metastasis. Various factors are included in the many prognostic systems currently in use and the prognostic value of immunohistochemical (IHC) expression of biological markers is unclear. READ MORE

8. Soft Tissue Sarcoma Patterns multiplicity, heterogeneity and growth characteristics
Abstract : Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) represent a group of rare and heterogenous tumors that optimally should be diagnosed and treated within multidisciplinary teams. This thesis has studied various aspects ? pathological, genetical, and clinical ? of STS. READ MORE

9. Tissue reactions to biomaterials
Abstract : The biological response to different implanted biomaterials vary. The relative importance of factors in the material and host for this variation are at present incompletely known. READ MORE

10. Aliphatic Polyesters for Soft Tissue Engineering : Development from Conventional Organometallic to Novel Enzymatic Catalysis
Abstract : The development of macromolecules with defined structure and properties, aimed specifically for biomedical applications, has resulted in diverse biodegradable polymers with advanced architectures. Among them, aliphatic polyesters synthesized by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of lactones and lactides have a leading position due to their good mechanical properties, hydrolyzability and biocompatibility.
