1. Symphysis Fundus Measurements for Detection of Intrauterine Growth Retardation
Sammanfattning : A case-control study was performed to evaluate the Swedish population-based symphysis fundus (SF) reference curves. The study included 242 small for gestational age (SGA) neonates (169 term and 73 preterm infants) as cases and 296 non-SGA infants as controls. Two Swedish SF curves were evaluated. LÄS MER
2. Ultrasound screening for fetal anomalies
Sammanfattning : We studied the prenatal detection rate of various malformations during a study period of 16 years in a population in southern Sweden consisting of 141 240 deliveries. The overall detection rate was 28.4% and the false positive diagnoses were very few. LÄS MER
3. The role of apoptosis in growth plate cartilage during normal and abnormal growth
Sammanfattning : Longitudinal bone growth occurs at the growth plate where resting chondrocytes proliferate, differentiate into a hypertrophic form, and finally become terminal hypertrophic chondrocytes before giving rise to bone. Because growth occurs when proliferation exceeds cell death, alterations in cell death by apoptosis, which is essential for the maintenance of tissue homeostasis, could affect growth. LÄS MER
4. Risk factors and adverse pregnancy outcomes in small-for-gestational-age births
Sammanfattning : The studies were undertaken to evaluate risk factors and outcomes in small-for-gestational-age (SGA) births, in cohort studies using the population-based Swedish Birth, Twin and Education Registers. A cohort study of pregnant women from Uppsala County evaluated the effect on birthweight by caffeine. LÄS MER
5. Hypercoagulation in preeclampsia : implications for maternal health and fetal growth
Sammanfattning : Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is a serious complication of pregnancy characterized by hypertension, proteinuria, oedema and hypercoagulation. Damage in organs, such as the liver and kidney, is harmful to the maternal health. Impairments in placental function cause intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR). LÄS MER
