1. 1. Cardiovascular function and biomarkers in women with preeclampsia

   Författare :Rangeen Rafik Hamad; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []

   Sammanfattning : Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is a multisystem disorder peculiar to human pregnancy and characterized by the onset of hypertension and proteinuria after the 20th week of gestation. The pathophysiology of this disorder is still not clear. LÄS MER

3. 2. Vascular mechanical properties and endothelial function with special reference to pregnancy and hormonal influences

   Författare :Jana Brodszki; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gynaecology; andrology; reproduction; sexuality; Obstetrik; gynekologi; andrologi; reproduktion; sexualitet; Obstetrics; systemic lupus erythematosus; hormone therapy; preeclampsia; pregnancy; endothelial function; arterial stiffness; vessels; ultrasound; cardiovascular disease;

   Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity. Early recognition of vascular changes, both structural and functional, may help to identify individuals at risk for CVD. LÄS MER

4. 3. Endothelial function in isolated small arteries from women at reproductive age and after menopause : possibilities for improvement

   Författare :Eimantas Svedas; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Alterations in vascular function are present in patients with Preeclampsia (PE) and in women after menopause. PE is a syndrome peculiar to human pregnancy that adversely affects the mother by endothelial dysfunction and the fetus due to impaired uteroplacental blood flow. LÄS MER

5. 4. The role and regulation of nitric oxide and oxidative stress in cardiometabolic disease : focus on preeclampsia

   Författare :Sarah McCann Haworth; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular (CVD) and metabolic diseases account for significant morbidity and mortality. Over the last decades, despite significant research and clinical effort, their global prevalence is estimated to further increase. LÄS MER

7. 5. New insights into the control of small artery function in human pregnancy and estrogen receptor beta knockout mice

   Författare :Leanid Luksha; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Available data clearly indicates functional and morphological differences between small and large arteries, and observations from studies on large arteries may not be applicable to understand the physiology of small arteries (~200-300mum) that actively participate in the regulation of peripheral vascular resistance, blood pressure and flow to target organs. These events confer cardiovascular adaptation to normal pregnancy (NP), however they are disturbed in preeclampsia (PE) and in estrogen receptor beta knockout (ERbetaKO) mice at a certain age. LÄS MER
