Design, Synthesis, Anticancer Evaluation, Enzymatic Assays, and a Molecular Modeling Study of Novel Pyrazole−Indole Hybrids
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-04)The molecular hybridization concept has recently emerged as a powerful approach in drug discovery. A series of novel indole derivatives linked to the pyrazole moiety were designed and developed via a molecular hybridization ... -
The devil is in the details: Whole Slide Image acquisition and processing for artifacts detection, color variation, and data augmentation: A review.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Whole Slide Images (WSI) are widely used in histopathology for research and the diagnosis of different types of cancer. The preparation and digitization of histological tissues leads to the introduction of artifacts and ... -
Effects of scheduled exercise on cancer-related fatigue in women with early breast cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-01)While physical activity during cancer treatment is found beneficial for breast cancer patients, evidence indicates ambiguous findings concerning effects of scheduled exercise programs on treatment-related symptoms. This ... -
Emerging Role of Epigenetic Alterations as Biomarkers and Novel Targets for Treatments in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-01)Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal disease with limited treatment options. Emerging evidence shows that epigenetic alterations are present in PDAC. The changes are potentially reversible and therefore ... -
Epidemiology and classification of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms using current coding criteria
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-09)Background: The lack of uniform criteria for coding of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasia (GEP-NEN) has hampered previous epidemiological studies. The epidemiology of GEP-NEN was investigated in this study ... -
Future world cancer death rate prediction
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-01)Cancer is a worldwide illness that causes significant morbidity and death and imposes an immense cost on global public health. Modelling such a phenomenon is complex because of the non-stationarity and complexity of cancer ... -
Graphene-based phenformin carriers for cancer cell treatment: a comparative study between oxidized and pegylated pristine graphene in human cells and zebrafish.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Graphene is an attractive choice for the development of an effective drug carrier in cancer treatment due to its high adsorption area and pH-responsive drug affinity. In combination with the highly potent metabolic drug ... -

Homeworld/Alienworld: a qualitative study about existential experiences after cancer treatment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-07)Background As a group, cancer survivors experience significant vulnerability and existential challenges. The biomedical approach dominating health care is insufficient to meet such existential challenges in an individualistic, ... -
In silico investigations of intratumoral heterogeneous interstitial fluid pressure
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-06)Recent preclinical studies have shown that interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) within tumors can be heterogeneous Andersen et al. (2019). In that study tumors of two xenograft models, respectively, HL-16 cervical carcinoma ... -
Independent validation of a risk stratification model predicting survival in elderly patients irradiated for bone metastases
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background/Aim: Many patients with bone metastases receive palliative radiotherapy. However, treatment personalization tools are needed, due to heterogeneous survival. The aim of this study was to analyze the validity of ... -
Influence of pre-operative oral carbohydrate loading vs. standard fasting on tumor proliferation and clinical outcome in breast cancer patients - a randomized trial
