   Sammanfattning : Abstract Background: Preterm delivery (PTD; < 37 gestational weeks), is one of the greatest unsolved obstetrical problems worldwide. As much as 80% of the perinatal mortality and 50% of the long-term neurological handicaps are associated with PTD. Spontaneous preterm birth (SPTD), i.e. LÄS MER

3. 2. Infectious and inflammatory mechanisms in preterm birth and cerebral palsy

   Sammanfattning : Background: International studies of women in preterm labor (PTL) and preterm pre-labor rupture of the membranes (pPROM) have shown a significant association between microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity (MIAC), some cytokines and chemokines and preterm birth (PTB). These studies have been performed in countries with higher incidence of PTB than that in Sweden. LÄS MER

4. 3. Maternal and placental inflammatory biomarkers in spontaneous preterm delivery - Predictive ability, stability and neonatal associations

   Sammanfattning : Preterm delivery (PTD), spontaneous or iatrogenic, causes short- and long-term morbidity and underlies almost 75% of neonatal deaths. The prevalence in the Nordic countries is about 6% but it differs among countries. In the USA, for instance, it is around 9.6%. LÄS MER

5. 4. Human papillomavirus infection and preterm delivery

   Författare :Johanna Wiik; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; CIN; HPV; LEEP; pPROM; PROM; PTD;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection causes cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Excisional treatment of CIN has been linked to increased risk of preterm delivery (PTD). The specific mechanism behind is however unclear. Also untreated CIN has been associated with an increased risk of PTD. LÄS MER

7. 5. Pulmonary disease in infancy, perinatal inflammatory risk factors and prophylaxis

   Författare :Lena Eriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Objective: In the last decades the survival rate of preterm infants has increased substantially.1-3 Despite improved intensive neonatal care the incidence of chronic lung disease in infants born preterm has not changed. LÄS MER
