  1. 21. Physiological Stress Reactivity in Late Pregnancy

    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; acoustic startle response; allopregnanolone; antenatal; anxiety; cold pressor test; cortisol; cortisol awakening response; depression; electrodermal; estradiol; hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis; postpartum; pregnancy; progesterone; skin conductance; stress; sympathetic nervous system; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : During pregnancy, the basal activity is increased in both of our major stress response systems: the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. At the same time, the reactivity towards stressors is reduced. These alterations sustain maternal and fetal homeostasis, and are involved in the regulation of gestational length. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Smoking and pregnancy : with special reference to preterm birth and the feto-placental unit

    Författare :Nina Kyrklund-Blomberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Smoking; Preterm birth; Very preterm birth; Onset of delivery; Placental abruption; Perinatal death; Smoking; Preterm birth; Very preterm birth; Onset of delivery; Placental abruption; Perinatal death; Pulse wave; Vessel stiffness; Echo-tracking system.;

    Sammanfattning : Objective: To study maternal smoking in pregnancy in relation to preterm birth, placental abruption and perinatal mortality in pregnancies with placental abruption, and to pulse wave characteristics in fetal aorta. Methods: Two cohort studies with data on single births obtained from the Swedish Medical Birth Registry (N=311 977 and N=795 459, respectively). LÄS MER

  3. 23. Understanding newborn care in Uganda : towards future interventions

    Författare :Peter Waiswa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Evidence-based; newborn care practices; preterm care; community health workers; delays; continuum of care; Uganda;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The highest rates of newborn deaths are in Africa. Existing evidence-based interventions could reduce up to 72% of the 3.8 million newborn deaths which occur every year worldwide, but are yet to be operationalised at scale in sub-Saharan health systems. LÄS MER

  4. 24. End stage renal disease in type 1 diabetes : time trends and risk factors

    Författare :Cecilia Toppe; Anna Möllsten; Gisela Dahlquist; Torild Skrivarhaug; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; End stage renal disease; renal replacement therapy; type 1 diabetes; diabetes nephropathy; socioeconomy and epidemiology; epidemiologi; Epidemiology; pediatrik; Pediatrics;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aims: Sweden has a high incidence of type 1 diabetes (T1D) and the incidence is increasing worldwide. The incidence is now twice as high as when the registration of childhood onset T1D in Sweden started in 1977. One of the major risk factors for developing late complications such as renal failure (ESRD) is duration of T1D. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Local Immune regulation in human pregnancy : with focus on decidual macrophages

    Författare :Charlotte Gustafsson Lidström; Christina Ekerfelt; Eva Sverremark-Ekström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; reproduction; placenta; leukocyte; ELISPOT; Clinical immunology; Klinisk immunologi;

    Sammanfattning : During pregnancy, the woman carries a fetus partly foreign to her immune system, because of the expression of paternal antigens. Despite this, the fetus is normally tolerated and not rejected, as is often the case with organs in allogeneic transplantations. LÄS MER
