    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Autism; Young children; Immigrant Population; Prevalence; Feeding Disorders; ARFID; Early Detection and Intervention; Early Start Denver Model;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by a pattern of major impairments in social communication and behavioural/sensory problems, with high rates of coexisting neurodevelopmental and medical conditions. Over the past decade, there has been a documented rise in the registered prevalence of autism worldwide. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Ghrelin in feeding: new insights into its role and the neurocircuits involved

    Författare :Marie Le May; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ghrelin; feeding; supramammillary nucleus; parabrachial nucleus;

    Sammanfattning : Appetite, originally evolved to ensure we consume enough of diverse nutrients to survive famines, has lost its survival advantage in our modern society, where food is plentiful. The hedonic aspect of appetite can indeed induce over-consumption of food, a major cause for the obesity pandemic. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Neural circuit mapping af orexigenic systems

    Författare :Iris Stoltenborg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; orexigenic; ghrelin; feeding; food-cue; arcuate nucleus; lateral hypothalamus; orexin; activity-based anorexia;

    Sammanfattning : Orexigenic systems in the brain process appetite and/or hunger information and ultimately coordinate feeding responses. These brain circuits are critical for survival and originally evolved to ensure that we consume sufficient amounts of diverse nutrients to survive future famines. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Galanin receptor subtypes in rodent models of mood disorders

    Författare :Tara Wardi-Le Maitre; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :5-HT1A receptor; galanin; galanin receptor 2 overexpressing mice; locus coeruleus; dorsal raphe; depression-like behavior; forced swim test;

    Sammanfattning : Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a serious mental illness, with a complex etiology. It is a multifactorial disorder caused by a combination of genetic, environmental and epigenetic factors. Exposure to stressful life events seems to be a common, contributing cause of morbidity.

    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are complex neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), heterogeneous in phenotypes and etiology. The exact mechanisms driving the phenotypes are still largely unknown. LÄS MER
