  1. 21. Hypoxia and auto resuscitation in the neonatal rodent with special reference to the sympatho-adrenal system

    Författare :Shi-Zeng Yuan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :adrenal medulla; apnea; asphyxia; autoresuscitation; catecholamines; SIDS;

    Sammanfattning : Preterm infants exhibit irregular breathing with frequent episodes of apnea, which may be associated with cyanosis and bradycardia. Perinatal asphyxia causes a considerable amount of morbidity and mortality that occurs during early life. Studies of mechanisms responsible for perinatal asphyxia are therefore very important.

  3. 22. Women giving birth at an advanced age and their children : obstetric and neonatal outcomes, health and social support

    Författare :Malin Lindell Pettersson; Gunilla Sydsjö; Elizabeth Nedstrand; Agneta Skoog Svanberg; Stina Järvholm; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Postponement of parenthood is an increasing trend in Western societies today. Delaying motherhood to a later time in life increases the use of assisted reproduction technology (ART), and the risk for adverse obstetric and neonatal outcomes. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Placental histopathology in preeclampsia and outcome of the offspring

    Författare :Marie-Therese Vinnars; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Preeclampsia (PE) is a major cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. The maternal symptoms are diverse and the neonates are often born premature and growth-restricted. Today the survival of premature infants has increased, but the neonatal complications including morbidity and long-term developmental deficits are still common. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Growth factors and vasoactive substances in intrauterine growth restriction and preeclampsia

    Författare :Eva Östlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Cordocentesis; IUGR; preeclampsia; prediction; IGF-I; IGFBP- 1; TGF-beta 1; blood gases; hypoxia; vasoconstriction; endothelin; erythropoietin; fibronectin; placenta.;

    Sammanfattning : Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is, next to prematurity, the second leading cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. To reduce perinatal morbidity and mortality it is important to identify such fetuses in utero in order to monitor their development, and to determine the most optimal time for delivery. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Inflammation in experimental neonatal brain injury and in a clinical study of preterm birth; involvement of galectin-3 and free radical formation

    Författare :Christina Doverhag; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :preterm labour; premature prelabour rupture of membranes; chorioamnionitis; hypoxia-ischemia; neonatal brain injury; NADPH oxidase; galectin-3; MMP-9; ascorbyl radicals; antioxidative capacity;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction; Intrauterine infection/inflammation is associated with preterm delivery (PTD) and severe neonatal morbidity. Inflammation is also important in the secondary neurotoxic cascade leading to perinatal brain injury. LÄS MER
