Lowering of tumor interstitial fluid pressure reduces tumor cell proliferation in a xenograft tumor model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2006-02)High tumor interstitial fluid pressure (TIFP) is a characteristic of most solid tumors. TIFP may hamper adequate uptake of macromolecular therapeutics in tumor tissue. In addition, TIFP generates mechanical forces affecting ... -
LPS quantification of oral samples from the RHINESSA study population

Lung function at term in extremely preterm-born infants: A regional prospective cohort study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Objectives: To compare lung function of extremely preterm (EP)-born infants with and without bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) with that of healthy term-born infants, and to determine which perinatal characteristics were ... -
Lung function reduction and chronic respiratory symptoms among workers in the cement industry: A Follow up study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-11-08)Background: There are only a few follow-up studies of respiratory function among cement workers. The main aims of this study were to measure total dust exposure, to examine chronic respiratory symptoms and changes in lung ... -
Lung hyperinflation and functional exercise capacity in patients with COPD - a three-year longitudinal study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-12-06)Background: Lung hyperinflation contributes to dyspnea, morbidity and mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The inspiratory-to-total lung capacity (IC/TLC) ratio is a measure of lung hyperinflation and ... -
