6. Maternal metabolic health and neurodevelopmental conditions in offspring
Sammanfattning : Background Observational studies published in the last decade have indicated relationships between maternal “overnutrition” states and offspring neurodevelopmental conditions (NDCs), such as autism, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and intellectual disability (ID). “Maternal overnutrition” states have been characterized by a series of metabolic conditions before pregnancy (i.

Braak’s hypothesis suggests that PD pathology may start in the enteric nervous system and later spread to the brain via the vagus nerve. LÄS MER
8. Life course determinants of women’s health : from reproductive age to menopause
Sammanfattning : Over the past four decades, growing evidence has indicated that characteristics such as birth weight and length of gestation are not only key indicators for infant’s health, but also predictors of adult health and disease risk. These findings lend support to the developmental origins of health and disease theory. LÄS MER
9. Early indicators for adverse development of cardiovascular, renal and metabolic function in children born with low birth weight
Sammanfattning : Prematurity affects more than 10% of infants worldwide and is the main reason for neonatal mortality. Improvements in neonatal care have led to higher survival rates into adulthood. Adverse events during organogenesis and development, intra-or extrauterine, can increase the risk for chronic disease later in life. LÄS MER
