Abstract Background. Urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) and inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) play a key role in tumour invasion metastasis. High levels of both proteolytic enzymes are associated with poor prognosis breast cancer patients. The purpose this study was to evaluate the correlation between traditional prognostic factors uPA PAI-1 expression primary Patients methods. 606 patients were enrolled prospective Department gynaecological oncology at University Medical Centre Maribor years 2004...

Abstract Background To overcome obstacles within the Slovenian organised cervical cancer screening programme, a randomised pilot study of human papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling among non-attenders was performed, aiming to assess three different approaches. Participants and methods Non-attenders aged 30–64 years from two regions were HPV groups–the opt-in (I1, n = 14.400) opt-out (I2, 9.556), with control group (P, 2.600). Self-collected samples analysed using Hybrid Capture 2 assay....

Femoral nerve palsy after THA is well known, but delayed rare. We describe a 58-year-old man who had progressive thigh pain, weakness, and numbness develop 13 years cementless arthroplasty of his left hip. Plain radiographs showed substantial liner wear. MRI the lumbar spine was unrevealing EMG peripheral neurogenic process involving femoral nerve. The large intrapelvic cystic mass confirmed by an abdominopelvic CT scan. Percutaneous aspiration cyst performed. Cultures fluid were negative...

Abstract Background. Ovarian cancer is usually diagnosed in an advanced stage and the present clinical diagnostic molecular markers for early OC screening are insufficient. The aim of this study was to identify potential relationship between hypodontia epithelial ovarian (EOC). Patients methods. A retrospective conducted on 120 patients with EOC treated at Department Gynaecologic Breast Oncology University Clinical Centre gynaecological healthy women (control group) same mean age.
