  1. 6. Neonatal hip instability. The anterior-dynamic ultrasound method. Population screening and re-evaluation of some aetiological factors

    Författare :John E. Andersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hip dislocation congenital; ultrasound examination; breech presentation; delivery hormone;

    Sammanfattning : To evaluate neonatal hip instability, the values for the physiologically normal movement of the femoral head by provocation were determined by an anterior-dynamic ultrasound method. The maximal movement of the femoral head with the acetabulum at provocation was 6.0, 6.6 and 6. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Elucidating the role of 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 14 in normal physiology and in breast cancer

    Författare :Tove Sivik; Agneta Jansson; Olle Stål; Lars-Arne Haldosén; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Oestrogens play key roles in the development of the majority of breast tumours, a fact that has been exploited successfully in treating breast cancer with tamoxifen, which is a selective oestrogen receptor modulator. In post-menopausal women, oestrogens are synthesised in peripheral hormone-target tissues from adrenally derived precursors. LÄS MER

  4. 8. The male predominance in oesophageal adenocarcinoma and the role of sex hormones

    Författare :Sirus Rabbani; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Oesophageal adenocarcinoma is a subtype of oesophageal cancer with rapidly rising incidence over the last decades. This rise in incidence is strongest in western countries and more among men than in women, with a male predominance of up to 9:1 in some countries. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Effects of in vitro fertilization on thrombosis and haemostasis and the relationship between infertility and cardiovascular disease

    Författare :Eli Westerlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Infertility afflicts more than 10% of all couples worldwide. In vitro fertilization (IVF) is now performed at an ever increasing rate. There is scarce information concerning the associations between cardiovascular disease (CVD), venous thromboembolism (VTE) and infertility. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Genes implicated in the development of obesity and obesity-related disease

    Författare :Kajsa Lindell; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :obesity; adipose tissue; hypothalamus; leptin; leptin receptor; 5 untranslated region; hypertension; angiotensinogen; DNA microarray;

    Sammanfattning : Obesity is a major health problem because of its dramatic increase in prevalence and the association of obesity with type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, hypertension and stroke. Although mutations in certain genes have been shown to cause obesity, the molecular mechanisms underlying obesity and obesity-related disease are still largely unknown. LÄS MER
