    Sammanfattning : Objective: To follow a cohort of children from age 4-6-12 with respect to sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and orofacial development. Questionnaires were completed about sleep, snoring, apneas, enuresis, sucking habits, and adenotonsillar surgery and, from age 12, about allergies, asthma, and general health. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Premature birth - studies on orthodontic treatment need, craniofacial morphology and function

    Författare :Liselotte Paulsson-Björnsson; Malmö högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Få studier har utvärderat om det finns något samband mellan för tidig födsel och bettavvikelser eller behov av tandreglering. Dessutom har inga tidigare studier undersökt om för tidigt födda barn skiljer sig från barn födda efter fullgången graviditet avseende ansiktsmorfologi, huvudvärk och temporomanibular dysfunktion (TMD), dvs. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Craniofacial morphology and growth in the ferret: effects from alteration of masticatory function

    Författare :Tailun He; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : INTRODUCTION: Our hypothesis is that any effects on craniofacial growth and morphology induced by altering the masticatory function will vary according to the species involved. The general aim of this thesis was to test the possible effects of altering the masticatory function on craniofacial growth and morphology, as well as features of masticatory muscles in ferrets.

  5. 19. Craniofacial development after three different palatoplasties in children born with isolated cleft palate

    Författare :Konstantinos Parikakis; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Different palatoplasties are applied for the surgical correction of children born with an isolated cleft in the palate (ICP). During the last decades the Veau-Wardill-Kilner (VWK), Minimal Incision (MI) and Minimal Incision with radical muscle reconstruction (MMI) palatoplasties were performed by the Stockholm Craniofacial Team.

  7. 20. A study of the cell adhesions molecules, E-cadherin and C-CAM, and the intermediate filaments, nestin, in craniofacial and tooth development

    Författare :Catharina Terling; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :cell adhesion molecules; epithelial fusion; C-CAM; E-cadherin; junctional epithelium; nestin; odontogenesis; palate;

    Sammanfattning : Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are involved in cell migration, morphogenesis, and cell differentiation within the embryo, and later in the maintenance of the multicellular organism. The aim of the present investigation was to analyze and compare the distribution of the CAMs, E-cadherin and C-CAM, during odontogenesis and palate formation, and furthermore, to analyze the expression of the intermediate filament (IF), nestin, in odontogenesis.
