  1. 1. Pathophysiology of intrauterine asphyxia

    Författare :Anna-Karin Welin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :asphyxia; ECG; endotoxemia; fetal sheep; inflammation; melatonin; periventricular leukomalacia; preterm;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The premature infant is at increased risk of cerebral white matter damage, oftenreferred to as periventricular leucomalacia, PVL, which is associated with later developmentof cerebral palsy and cognitive impairment. The etiology of PVL remains unclear, but ischemia-reperfusion followed by generation of free radicals and intrauterine infections havebeen suggested to play an important role. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Diagnostic evaluation of fetal death with special reference to intrauterine infections

    Författare :Karin Petersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Fetal death; stillbirth; investigational protocol; congenital toxoplasmosis; parvovirus B19; Internet; INFPREG;

    Sammanfattning : The incidence of intrauterine fetal death (>=28 gestational weeks) is approximately 4/1000 births in Sweden. In order to arrive at a potential cause of death, a number of investigations have been recommended in the diagnostic evaluation of intrauterine fetal death (IUFD). LÄS MER

  4. 3. Development in children born very preterm after intrauterine growth restriction with abnormal fetal blood flow

    Författare :Eva Morsing; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; umbilical artery; cognitive development; lung function; cardiovascular function; very preterm infants; Doppler ultrasound; Intrauterine growth restriction;

    Sammanfattning : Delivery of fetuses with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) with abnormal umbilical artery blood flow in the second trimester represents a clinical dilemma. So far, no evidence based management protocols are available adressing when to deliver these fetuses. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Awareness of fetal movements and pregnancy outcomes

    Författare :Anna Akselsson; Ingela Rådestad; Helena Lindgren; Susanne Georgsson; Anna Dencker; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; Sophiahemmet Högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Fetal movements are one, among others, of the measurable factors indicating wellbeing of the fetus. Decreased fetal movements are associated with intrauterine growth restriction and stillbirth. Women with experience of stillbirth have often noticed decreased and weaker fetal movements preceding the intrauterine death. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Health consequences of adverse fetal growth : studies in twins

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

    Sammanfattning : Findings of associations between birth weight and adult health outcomes have been taken to indicate that fetal growth – and fetal nutrition in particular – may program future health and disease in the developing individual. However, the study of prenatal exposures in humans is challenging, and most of the evidence to support fetal programming thus rests on proxy measures, such as birth weight and birth weight for gestational age.
