   Nyckelord :Human Parvovirus B19; intrauterine fetal death; hematopoiesis; bone marrow suppression; gamma-interferon; immune response; cytotoxic T cell; acute infection; persistent infection;

   Sammanfattning : Human parvovirus B19 (B19) causes erythema infectiosum, a limited disease of childhood also known as the fifth disease or slapped cheek syndrome, referring to the characteristic facial rash. It normally infects through the respiratory route, even though transmission via blood products and transplanted organs occur. LÄS MER

3. 22. Genetic epidemiological studies of adverse pregnancy outcomes and the role of schizophrenia

   Författare :Emma Nilsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Adverse pregnancy outcomes; pre-eclampsia; gestational hypertension; fetal growth restriction; low birth weight; infant death; schizophrenia; genetic and environmental components; epidemiology; twins; families;

   Sammanfattning : The purposes of this thesis were to investigate the importance of genetic and environmental factors in the development of adverse pregnancy outcomes and to investigate the role of schizophrenia as a risk factor for and a consequence of adverse pregnancy outcomes. In the first study we investigated the importance of genetic and environmental factors for pre-eclampsia and gestational hypertension and whether the diseases share genetic etiology. LÄS MER

4. 23. Smoking and pregnancy : with special reference to preterm birth and the feto-placental unit

   Författare :Nina Kyrklund-Blomberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Smoking; Preterm birth; Very preterm birth; Onset of delivery; Placental abruption; Perinatal death; Smoking; Preterm birth; Very preterm birth; Onset of delivery; Placental abruption; Perinatal death; Pulse wave; Vessel stiffness; Echo-tracking system.;

   Sammanfattning : Objective: To study maternal smoking in pregnancy in relation to preterm birth, placental abruption and perinatal mortality in pregnancies with placental abruption, and to pulse wave characteristics in fetal aorta. Methods: Two cohort studies with data on single births obtained from the Swedish Medical Birth Registry (N=311 977 and N=795 459, respectively). LÄS MER

5. 24. Apnea, small for date and autonomic imbalance : risk factors in relation to SIDS

   Författare :Ann Edner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Sudden Infant Death Syndrome SIDS ; Apparent Life Threatening Event ALTE ; Small for Gestational Age SGA ; Tilt test; Heart Rate Variability HR V ;

   Sammanfattning : SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) is defined as an infant who has died suddenly and its cause "remains unexplained after a thorough case investigation, including performance of a complete autopsy, examination of the death scene, and review of the clinical history". An infant who during sleep has been found apneic, pale or cyanotic and limp, and has required either vigorous stimulation or cardiopulmonary resuscitation is defined to have been affected of an Apparent Life Threatening Event (ALTE).

7. 25. Extracellular factors for preservation and delivery of stromal cells

   Författare :Kim Olesen; Karl-Henrik Grinnemo; Andreas Tilevik; Wing Cheung Mak; Cecilia Österholm; Magnus Fagerlind; Yuji Teramura; Högskolan i Skövde; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Infection Biology; Infektionsbiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Modulating the immune response after a myocardial infarction seems like an appropriate strategy for reducing myocardial fibrosis. Mesenchymal Stromal Cells are immunomodulatory and have thus gained interest, but have so far not achieved the desired clinical outcomes. LÄS MER
