  1. 21. Changes in human uterine innervation in term pregnancy and labor occurence and roles of neurotrophins and TRPV1

    Författare :Berith Karlsson Tingåker; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Uterus; corpus uteri; cervix uteri; pregnancy; labor pain; neurotrophins; NGF; TRPV1; sensory corpuscles; human.;

    Sammanfattning : Objective: Cervical ripening, is a prerequisite for successful labor, which is often very painful and involves an inflammatory reaction. However, little is presently known con-cerning nerve-related changes in the human uterus during labor and the fundamental hy-pothesis tested here was that labor pain emanates primarily from the cervix uteri.

  3. 22. Tissue engineering for novel female infertillity treatments: studies on small and large animal models

    Författare :Arvind M. Padma; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; rat; sheep; tissue engineering; decellularization; recellularization;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: As with any transplantation (Tx) procedure, uterus Tx is associated with risky donor surgery and adverse side-effects from immunosuppression. With the aim to bypass these risks, this thesis investigated uterus tissue engineering strategies and the potential to develop a patient-specific uterus graft to replace the need for donor surgery and immunosuppression.

  4. 23. Uterine Remodeling During Pregnancy - Studies on the Effect of Heparin/Heparan Sulfate

    Författare :Anna Åkerud; Matrixbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : During pregnancy, the uterine tissues must go through a major transformation to be able to first hold the growing fetus and then, at term, expel it through the opened birth canal (cervix). It is a requirement for successful labor that there is adequate cervical softening combined with effective myometrial contractions. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Receptor-mediated uterine effects of oxytocin and vasopressin

    Författare :Ragner Liedman; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neurohypophyseal; vasopressin receptor; oxytocin; pregnancy; oxytocin and vasopressin V1a antagonist; prostaglandin F2 alpha; primary dysmenorrhoea;

    Sammanfattning : The neurohypophyseal hormones oxytocin and vasopressin are important in the regulation of uterine contractility. These hormones, as well as prostaglandin F2α, are most forceful myometrial tissue contractors. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Postpartum Ultrasound

    Författare :Ajlana Mulic-Lutvica; Ove Axelsson; Karin Eurenius; Torvid Kiserud; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medicine; Postpartum ultrasound; Uterine artery Doppler; Retained placental tissue; Secondary postpartum hemorrhage; Puerperium; Endometritis postpartum; Cesarean section; Medicin;

    Sammanfattning : This study was undertaken to investigate the involutional changes of the uterus and uterine cavity by ultrasound (US), gray-scale and Doppler, after normal delivery, and to compare with the corresponding findings from women with puerperal complications, particularly retained placental tissue (RPT). The overall design was exploratory and prospective, with the use of descriptive statistics for analysis. LÄS MER
