  1. 16. Acid-base values in umbilical cord blood at birth

    Författare :Nana Wiberg; Urogynekologi och reproduktionsfarmakologi; []
    Nyckelord :Apgar score; Acidosis; Base deficit; Blood gases; Gestational age; Hidden acidosis; lactate; Umbilical cord blood;

    Sammanfattning : Umbilical cord blood acid-base status at birth gives an objective evaluation of the fetal exposure and response to hypoxia during labor. The objective of this thesis was to elucidate methodological issues associated with interpretation of cord blood gases. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Methodological considerations in epidemiological studies in perinatal medicine

    Författare :Dominika Modzelewska; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gestational duration; preterm delivery; familial aggregation; heritability; variability; birthweight; small for gestational age; neonatal outcomes;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on two projects, each consisting of two papers. In these two projects we investigated factors affecting the variability in gestational duration, and associations between maternal diet and neonatal outcomes. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Discrepancy between pregnancy dating methods – correlates and outcomes

    Författare :Merit Kullinger; Alkistis Skalkidou; Helle Kieler; Karin Källén; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pregnancy; gestational age; ultrasound; last menstrual period; Obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrics and Gynaecology;

    Sammanfattning : With the introduction of obstetric ultrasound there has been a shift from last menstrual period-based to ultrasound-based estimation of gestational age. The choice of the method and timing of pregnancy dating is important because it can affect dating precision and perinatal outcomes. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Early life influences on adult organ function, health and disease, including data from Swedish population-based cohorts

    Författare :Shantanu Sharma; Internmedicin - epidemiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; EPIDEMIOLOGY; Preconception care; Cardiovascular biomarkers; birth weight; gestational age; neoplasms; lipoprotein; prenatal care; pulse wave analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Prenatal insults or adverse events during the in-utero period may lead to suboptimal function of adult organs because of the impairment of critical organ development and growth, as linked to lower birth weight. This may ultimately predispose the individual to the later onset of some diseases in adulthood, a process known as Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD). LÄS MER

  7. 20. Long-term metabolic effects of a high birth weight

    Författare :Inger W Johnsson; Jan Gustafsson; Fredrik Ahlsson; Maria Lundgren; Ola Nilsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Body composition; Cardiovascular risk factors; Gestational diabetes; Glucose tolerance; High birth weight; Insulin sensitivity; Large for gestational age; Obesity; Offspring macrosomia; Type 2 diabetes; Endocrinology and Diabetology; Endokrinologi och Diabetologi;

    Sammanfattning : The intrauterine environment influences foetal growth as well as future response to risk factors for disease. This occurs partly through epigenetic mechanisms. Thus, birth weight is a possible risk marker of adult disease. LÄS MER
