1. Hormone concentrations during pregnancy and maternal risk of epithelial ovarian cancer
Sammanfattning : Background: The aim of this thesis was to study the relationship of pre-diagnostic circulating concentrations of sex steroid hormones (androgens, estradiol, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, and progesterone), growth factors (insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), placental growth hormone (GH)), sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) with risk of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) overall, and by tumor invasiveness and histology. A longitudinal study was used to assess patterns of hormonal changes during a single pregnancy, and in two consecutive pregnancies. LÄS MER
2. Placental transport of glucose and amino acids in early pregnancy. Cellular mechanisms, regulation and relation to diabetes
Sammanfattning : Despite strict glycemic control of the pregnant woman with type 1 diabetes fetal overgrowth is still common. The first trimester is often characterized by sub-optimal glucose levels and elevated HbA1C in early pregnancy is a predictor of fetal overgrowth. LÄS MER
3. Hypoglycaemia in pregnancy : hypoglycaemic clamp studies during and after pregnancy in women with IDDM
Sammanfattning : Problem: In pregnant women with IDDM a strict insulin regimen is generally instituted, which permits the possibility of a normal fetal outcome. This, however, increases the risk of hypoglycaemia, and a high prevalence of severe hypoglycaemia has been reported during pregnancy in these women. LÄS MER
