5. 19. Sex steroid secretion during childhood in males - with focus on prematurity, birth size, and growth patterns

   Författare :Kjersti Kvernebo-Sunnergren; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; androgens; birth weight; body height; body weight; child; estrogens; male; mass spectrometry; premature birth; Silver-Russell syndrome;

   Sammanfattning : Aim: The overall aim of the thesis was to evaluate sex steroid secretion patterns during childhood in boys and to study how sex steroid concentrations relate to gestational age, birth weight, growth patterns, and adult height outcome. Patients and Methods: In paper I, 11 growth hormone-treated boys with Silver–Russell syndrome (SRS) who had reached adult height were included. LÄS MER

7. 20. The effect of maternal malignancy on fertility, pregnancy, and neonatal outcomes

   Författare :Zahra Sabeti Rad; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
   Nyckelord :Malignancy; Pregnancy complications; IVF; Prematurity; Congenital malformations;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to investigate whether a malignant disease in women increases the risk of fertility disturbances, pregnancy and delivery complications and also of adverse birth outcomes among their infants. By linkage between six national health registers, we obtained data for all children born in Sweden 1994-2011 and their mothers including information on malignancy diagnosis, method of conception (natural/ART), pregnancies, and health outcomes of the infants.
