1. Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy
Sammanfattning : Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is a condition that has been reported to be associated with an increased fetal risk. A prospective study of ICP was conducted in the Västra Götaland region of Sweden between February 1, 1999 and January 31, 2002. LÄS MER
2. On Leukocyte Recruitment in Cholestatic Liver Injury
Sammanfattning : Cholestasis is a frequent clinical syndrome, which is caused by a dysfunction in bile formation of the hepatocyte or from obstruction of the biliary tract. This is associated with inflammation of the liver tissue, resulting in severe liver injury. In this inflammatory process, leukocyte recruitment has emerged as a key feature. LÄS MER
3. Cholestasis in infants at risk
Sammanfattning : Cholestasis is a condition when bile flow from the liver to the intestines is impaired. Unresolved, it may lead to liver transplantation or death. Overall, it affects 1 out of 2500 term infants, but is far more common in high-risk infants with other conditions such as prematurity and hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). LÄS MER
4. Ultrasound examination of lymph nodes in the hepato-duodenal ligament with special emphasis on patients with chronic liver diseases
Sammanfattning : The significance of finding lymph nodes in the hepato-duodenal ligament on ultrasound, with special emphasis on patients with inflammatory liver disease, has been evaluated. In one study a comparison was made with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which is another non-invasive imaging modality without the hazards of ionizing radiation. LÄS MER
5. Clinical and pathophysiological aspects of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy
Sammanfattning : Objective: The pathogenesis of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) involves impaired bile acid and estrogen/progesterone metabolism and excretion based on genetic and environmental factors. In this thesis we evaluated different pathophysiological and clinical aspects of ICP, i.e. LÄS MER
