1. 21. Preeclampsia and other circulatory diseases during pregnancy : etiological aspects and impact on female offspring

   Författare :Helena Salonen Ros; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :preeclampsia; gestational hypertension; pregnancy-induced hypertension; risk factors; heritability; twin study; venous thrombosis; pulmonary embolism; subarachnoid hemorrhage; intracerebral hemorrhage; intracerebral infarction; stroke; intrauterine exposure;

   Sammanfattning : The aims of this thesis were to investigate and compare environmental effects on the liability of developing preeclampsia and gestational hypertension; to estimate the relative importance of genetic and environmental effects on the liability of developing preeclampsia and gestational hypertension; to assess the effect of childbearing on the risk of circulatory diseases; and to explore the effect of preeclampsia on the female offspring anthropometry in early adulthood. We used the Swedish Birth Register to compare the effect of maternal diabetes, multiple birth, smoking, place of birth and obesity, on the liability of developing preeclampsia and gestational hypertension among 10,666 primiparous women.

4. 23. Penumbra oxygen metabolism and acute neuroinflammation in ischemic stroke : MRI and PET imaging of a M2 occlusion model in rat

   Författare :Philip Little; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is caused by the sudden occlusion of a major artery of the brain, and results in infarction and severe ischemia within affected brain regions. If ischemic regions are rapidly revascularized, the neurological disability resulting from AIS can be significantly reduced. LÄS MER

   Nyckelord :Atherosclerosis; rheumatoid arthritis; stroke; autoantibodies; pro-inflammatory cytokines;

   Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis has been categorized as an inflammatory disorder, with similar chronic inflammatory conditions found in rheumatoid arthritis. It entails an unregulated accumulation of lipids in the vessel wall, which leads to the development of cardiovascular diseases. LÄS MER

7. 25. The Epidemiology of Intracerebral Haemorrahge. Risk factors and prognosis

   Sammanfattning : Abstract The present thesis explored the epidemiology of intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH), i.e., factors associated to incidence and prognosis. In the population of Malmö (Malmö 1990 cohort), it was shown that immigrants from China/Vietnam and the Former Soviet Union had higher risk of ICH than citizens born in Sweden. LÄS MER
