    Sammanfattning : Aims:Paper I: To perform measurements of the lower leg length (LLL) in preterm infants, compare and evaluate handling error and precision of two instruments, and estimate the time required to show growth.Paper II-IV: To investigate whether low postnatal levels of serum IGF-I are associated with abnormal retinal vessel development.

  2. 2. Symphysis Fundus Measurements for Detection of Intrauterine Growth Retardation

    Författare :Eva Bergman; Ove Axelsson; Helle Kieler; Max Petzold; Reynir Tomas Geirsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :symphysis-fundus measurements; small for gestational age; intrauterine growth retardation; fetal growth; self-administered; relative growth; screening method; statistical surveillance; fetal surveillance;

    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

  3. 3. Epidemiological Studies of Preeclampsia : Maternal & Offspring Perspectives 

    Författare :Jóhanna Gunnarsdóttir; Anna-Karin Wikström; Sven Cnattingius; Ulf Högberg; Alexander Smárason; Uppsala universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Preeclampsia is a placental-related disorder characterized by generalized endothelial activation. Vascular predisposition is associated with the occurrence of preeclampsia and the recurrence risk is substantial. LÄS MER

  4. 4. 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. 5. Growth factors and vasoactive substances in intrauterine growth restriction and preeclampsia

    Författare :Eva Östlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Cordocentesis; IUGR; preeclampsia; prediction; IGF-I; IGFBP- 1; TGF-beta 1; blood gases; hypoxia; vasoconstriction; endothelin; erythropoietin; fibronectin; placenta.;

    Sammanfattning : Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is, next to prematurity, the second leading cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. To reduce perinatal morbidity and mortality it is important to identify such fetuses in utero in order to monitor their development, and to determine the most optimal time for delivery. LÄS MER
