  1. 21. Mode of delivery, epigenetic modulation and immune cell formation at birth

    Författare :Titus Schlinzig; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Birth by Cesarean section (CS) has been associated with a greater risk for immune disorders like allergy, asthma, type 1 diabetes, celiac disease, inflammatory bowel diseases, and cancer later in life. Although elective CS continues to increase rapidly, it is unclear if and how it may contribute to future health and disease. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Population genetic, association and zygosity testing on preamplified DNA

    Författare :Ulf Hannelius; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : New advances in genetic epidemiological research have lead to the establishment of collaborative biobanks that can be used in large-scale population genetic and association studies. A less explored approach is to use the existing biological repositories, like the Swedish newborn screening registry (SNSR) for similar purposes. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Neural stem cells and their contribution to neurogenesis in the adult mammalian brain

    Författare :Stefan Momma; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : For a long time it was believed that neurogenesis in the mammalian central nervous system was restricted to the embryonic and early postnatal period. Almost four decades ago Altman and colleagues challenged this notion, but it took more than thirty years before new studies with refined methods convincingly demonstrated neurogenesis in the adult mammalian brain, including the adult monkey and human brain.

  5. 24. Neurogenic bladder and bowel dysfunction : Clinical aspects in children with spinal dysraphism

    Författare :Peter Wide; Karel Duchén; Sven Mattsson; Gunilla Glad Mattsson; Sivert Lindström; Maria Hertelius; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Spinal dysraphism (SD) is a congenital malformation that to a varying extent, often severely, affects the life of the child and the family. Most individuals with SD suffer from neurogenic bladder and bowel dysfunction—with the risk of urinary tract infections, renal deterioration, urinary and fecal incontinence—that affects social participation and quality of life negatively.

    Sammanfattning : OBJECTIVES: To elucidate the role of genital infections in last trimester pre-labour foetal death and the role and aetiology of chorioamnionitis in stillbirth in Maputo, Mozambique. To determine the role of current syphilis as a risk factor for foetal death in Maputo and the prevalence and risk factors for syphilis and HIV infection in displaced pregnant women in rural Zambezia province.
