1. 36. Platelet activation and tissue factor release in hemolytic uremic syndrome

   Författare :Anne-lie Ståhl; Lund Pediatrik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hemolytic uremic syndrome; platelets; tissue factor; LPS; Shiga toxin; complement system; factor H; clusterin;

   Sammanfattning : Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a clinical syndrome characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia and acute renal failure. There are two subtypes: typical HUS associated with enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) and atypical HUS associated with uninhibited activation of the alternative pathway of complement. LÄS MER

3. 37. Cerebellar development and very preterm birth interactions with neonatal events

   Författare :Kristbjorg Sveinsdottir; Lund Pediatrik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : AbstractThe cerebellum is an important part of the brain and in very preterm infants the cerebellum is smaller at term equivalent age compared to that of infants born at term.Hypothesis and aims: The general hypothesis is that preterm birth per se causes cerebellar underdevelopment and that certain events following preterm birth, either complications or treatments, can aggravate the underdevelopment.

4. 38. Preterm intraventricular haemorrhage - Effects of extracellular haemoglobin

   Författare :Snjolaug Sveinsdottir; Lund Pediatrik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH) is the most common brain lesion in preterm infants and is most commonly seen in the sickest children, with 15-20% of very preterm infants developing IVH. The mortality of infants with severe IVH is 20-50 % in the neonatal period and over 50 % of surviving infants develop post-haemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD) and 40-80 % develop severe neurological impairment, mainly cerebral palsy and mental retardation.

5. 39. Health-related quality of life and everyday life for children with right ventricular outflow tract anomalies. Perspectives from children and parents

   Författare :Birgitta Svensson; Lund Pediatrik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HRQoL; Everyday life; Children; Parents; Congenital heart disease; RVOT anomalies; Heart surgery; Thematic analysis;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Children with right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) anomaliestypically undergo surgical repair during their first months of life and thereafter they will need one or more reoperations through their life.Aims: The overall aim was to describe health-related quality of life (HRQoL) forchildren with congenital heart disease (CHD) with a special focus on children withRVOT anomalies and to explore children’s and their parents’ experiences ofeveryday life during assessment that could result in a new heart surgery.

7. 40. Long-term Morbidity and Socioeconomic Outcome among Nordic Childhood Cancer Survivors

   Författare :Anna Sällfors-Holmqvist; Lund Pediatrik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Childhood cancer survivors; late complications; morbidity; late socioeconomic effects;

   Sammanfattning : Survival after childhood cancer has improved dramatically during the past four decades, resulting in a five-year survival rate of 80% in children recently treated for cancer in the Nordic countries. However, these advances in treatment and survival has come at a price, and many survivors face significant treatment-induced sequelae, most of which only become clinically apparent many years after the child has been cured.
