  1. 1. Value-based management - positioning of claimed merits and analysis of application

    Author : Peter W Jönsson; Företagsekonomiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; adoption; management process aspects; objective; performance measurement; strategic planning; remuneration; MVA; EVA; TBR; CFROI; Accounting; TSR; measurement aspects; management accounting constructs; Value-based management; management accounting; Redovisning;

    Abstract : Value-based management has attracted considerable interest among organizations and academics in recent years. Responding to calls for case-based research, this thesis describes, analyses and conceptualizes value-based management as a management accounting construct. While previous research has focused on the measures (eg. READ MORE

  2. 2. Transforming growth factor-ß. Signal regulation in health and disease

    Author : Urban Molander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : TGF-b; BMP; Smad; signal transduction; LDL; skin tumour; mesangial;

    Abstract : TGF-b superfamily members have been shown to play a pivotal role in multicellular organisms. Knowledge about signal transduction pathways is important in order to understand and cure diseases like cancer where TGF-b´s growth inhibitory signal often are disenabled via mutated or absent signalling components.

  3. 3. Amnesia and emotional arousal

    Author : Sven-Åke Christianson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Amnesia; memory; psychological trauma; emotional arousal; adrenalin;

    Abstract : The purpose of the present thesis was twofold. First, to study the role of emotional arousal in memory processes, and secondly, to relate this concept to empirical findings of amnesia. In both clinical and experimental settings it has been observed that remembering is impaired for events occurring prior to, and after a traumatic critical event. READ MORE

  4. 4. Monitoring of neuroendocrine tumor patients undergoing systemic therapies

    Author : Olof Pettersson; Anders Sundin; Håkan Geijer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Therapy monitoring; NET; neuroendocrine tumor; computed tomography; CT; PRRT; 177Lu-DOTATATE; TGR; tumor growth rate; theranostics; DOTATOC-PET CT; Radiology; Radiologi; Endokrinologi och Diabetologi; Endocrinology and Diabetology; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Abstract : Monitoring of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients undergoing systemic therapies is troublesome as biomarkers capable of detecting tumor responses have been difficult to establish. Changes in the sum of target lesion diameters are used to evaluate the effects of therapy according to the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST 1.1). READ MORE

  5. 5. Theranostics in Neuroendocrine Tumors : Somatostatin Receptor Imaging and Therapy

    Author : Ezgi Ilan; Mark Lubberink; Peter Bernhardt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 177Lu-DOTATATE; 68Ga-DOTATATE; 68Ga-DOTATOC; PRRT; Theranostics; PET CT; SPECT CT; Neuroendocrine tumors; Somatostatin receptors; Medicinsk radiofysik; Medical Radiophysics;

    Abstract : Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are characterized by cellular overexpression of somatostatin receptors (SSTR), which allows for the use of radiolabeled somatostatin analogs (SSA) for both imaging and therapy. Because NETs often are diagnosed at a metastatic stage, curative surgery is not possible. READ MORE
