  4. 18. Genomic and epigenetic investigations of Silver-Russell syndrome and growth restriction

    Författare :Sara Bruce; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A combination of genes, their epigenetic regulation, and the environment control the phenotypes of an individual, such as how short or tall one grows. Epigenetics refers to chemical modifications of DNA and histones that regulate gene activity and genome stability, and can take the form of, for example, addition of a methyl group to DNA. LÄS MER

  5. 19. The Role of Mammalian Target of Rapamycin in the Regulation of Amino Acid Transporters in the Human Placenta

    Sammanfattning : Abnormal fetal growth, which is associated with both perinatal morbidity as well as metabolic diseases in adulthood, is an important clinical problem affecting as many as 15% of all pregnancies. However, to this date, there is no specific treatment of this condition. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Ultrasound as predictor of perinatal outcome

    Författare :Gisela Ghosh; gynekologisk och prenatal ultraljudsdiagnostik Obstetrisk; []

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the work described in this thesis was to evaluate the value of ultrasound examinations of the amniotic fluid, umbilical cord and blood flow velocity waveform of the fetal and placental vessels as predictors of the perinatal outcome. In the first study, the amniotic fluid index (AFI) measured on admission to the labour ward was evaluated in low-risk pregnancies. LÄS MER
