  1. 6. On evaluation of organ damage in perinatal asphyxia : an experimental and clinical study

    Författare :Mathias Karlsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Perinatal asphyxia; hypoxia-ischemia; hypothermia; pig; lactate dehydrogenase; aminotransferases;

    Sammanfattning : Leakage of intracellular enzymes such as alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) signalling multi organ dysfunction (MOD) is seen together with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) after perinatal asphyxia. Hypothermia (HT) can attenuate HIE following perinatal asphyxia and hypoxia-ischemia (HI) but the neuroprotective efficacy falls dramatically the longer the delay in initiating HT. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Pregnancy—A Critical Time for Mental Health : Interrogating Psychiatry with Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis and Autonomic Nervous System Biomarkers

    Författare :Mary C. Kimmel; Alkistis Skalkidou; Janet Cunningham; Emma Fransson; Samantha Meltzer-Brody; Susan Garthus-Niegel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :pregnancy; heart rate variability HRV ; microbiome; depression; anxiety; self-efficacy; cytokines; biomarkers;

    Sammanfattning : Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) are common and impact the parent and child beyond the perinatal period of pregnancy and postpartum. The aim of this thesis was to study biomarkers that might reflect perinatal mental health. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Traction force and long-term outcome in children born after vacuum-assisted delivery

    Författare :Stefhanie Romero; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Vacuum-assisted delivery (VAD) is used in cases of dystocia or foetal distress in the second stage of labour. The frequency of VADs differs around the world, and in Sweden they account for six to nine percent of all deliveries. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Role of cerebral Blood Flow in Fetal Surveillance

    Författare :Riffat Cheema; Urogynekologi och reproduktionsfarmakologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT In high-risk pregnancies the chronic hypoxemic fetus redistributes its circulation to maintain the blood supply to the vital organs: brain, heart and adrenals. The aims of the studies included in this thesis were: 1) to establish reference curves for fetal cerebral venous blood velocity in normal pregnancies; 2) to determine in high-risk pregnancies the frequency of abnormal Doppler in the cerebral veins and uterine, umbilical and middle cerebral arteries and the umbilical vein and ductus venosus with correlation with adverse perinatal outcome; 3) to analyze the correlation between brain sparing and redistribution of circulation and placental vascular impedance; 4) to evaluate the correlation between brain sparing and fetal umbilical cord blood gases at birth.

  7. 10. Risk factors and health consequences of obsessive-compulsive and chronic tic disorders

    Författare :Gustaf Brander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a severe and heterogenous mental disorder characterized by intrusive thoughts, urges or images, followed by repetitive behaviors aimed to reduce the associated anxiety. Tic disorders are neurodevelopmental movement disorders consisting of recurring, involuntary, rapid, and sudden non-rhythmic motor movements or vocalizations. LÄS MER
