26. Quantification of left-to-right shunt through Patent Ductus Arteriosus by colour Doppler
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to develop a non-invasive method to quantify the size of a shunt through a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) by ultrasound and to test its usability in clinical settings. There is no consensus regarding the optimal management strategy for a PDA in premature infants. LÄS MER
27. Auditory event-related potentials and cognitive outcome after very preterm birth
Sammanfattning : Children born before 32 gestational weeks have a high incidence of neuropsychological deficits. The structural and functional correlates of such impairments in preterm infants are incompletely understood, and early diagnostic tools are needed, but still lacking. LÄS MER
28. Sad, shattered or slow? Fatigue after childhood cancer
Sammanfattning : Systematic assessments of cognition, fatigue, and mental health in survivors ofchildhood cancer can serve two different purposes. One is to enable research about development over time and medical predictors of cognitive deficits. The other is to identify individual patients in need of rehabilitation or interventions. LÄS MER
29. Kinin System Activation in Vasculitis
Sammanfattning : The kinin system is activated when high-molecular-weight kininogen (HK) is cleaved by plasma kallikrein thus generating bradykinin. Bradykinin is a potent proinflammatory peptide that induces plasma leakage, blood pressure drop, liberation of inflammatory cytokines and pain. LÄS MER
30. Inflammation and ischemia in the developing brain - modifying effects of hyperoxia and adrenoceptor activation
Sammanfattning : Inflammation and ischemia are common causes of perinatal brain damage. Ventilation with pure oxygen has previously been the prime choice during resuscitation following fetal asphyxia. LÄS MER
