  1. 16. Very preterm birth and fetal growth restriction in adolescence - Cardiovascular and renal aspects

    Författare :Jonas Liefke; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Preterm and low birth weight; Fetal growth restriction; Magnetic resonance imaging MRI ; Cardiac function; Preterm birth; Adolescence; Kidney function; Kidney anatomy histology; Cardiovascular biomarkers; Arterial stiffness; Ambulatory blood pressure measurement; Biochemical makers;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis applied magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to investigate to what extent very preterm birth due to early onset fetal growth restriction (FGR) impacts the cardiovascular system and kidneys in adolescence. The thesis further investigated whether FGR exacerbates the organ-specific effects of very preterm birth. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Visual motor development in full term and preterm infants

    Författare :Helena Grönqvist; Claes von Hofsten; Kerstin Rosander; Audrey van der Meer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; infant development; smooth pursuit; eye tracking; reaching; preterm infants; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Smooth tracking and efficient reaching for moving objects require the ability to predict the velocity and trajectory of the object. This skill is important to be able to perceive human action and object motion in the world. This thesis explores early visual motor development in full term and preterm infants. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Adolescents Born Extremely Preterm : Cognitive, Behavioural and Relational Outcomes

    Författare :Anne-Li Hallin; Institutionen för psykologi; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; health; attachment; behaviour; extremely preterm; Adolescents; social support; cognition;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to evaluate long-term outcomes in a regional cohort of adolescents born extremely preterm (before the 29th gestational week) and compare them to full-term born controls. Fifty-two prematurely and 54 full-term born individuals were recruited from a follow-up study at 10 years of age. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Delayed Development of Visuomotor Capacity in Very Preterm Infants

    Författare :Katarina Strand Brodd; Uwe Ewald; Gerd Holmström; Bo Strömberg; Claes von Hofsten; Louise Rönnqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; preterm infants; visual development; neurosensory development; smooth pursuit eye movements; perinatal risk factors; reaching movements; Paediatric medicine; Pediatrisk medicin; Pediatrik; Pediatrics;

    Sammanfattning : To coordinate visual perception and motor control in daily life where we are constantly surrounded by motion, we are dependent on normal visuomotor capacity. One essential prerequisite for normal visuomotor capacity is smooth pursuit eye movements (SP). Infants born very preterm (VPT = born .. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Optimizing mechanical ventilation in extremely preterm infants

    Författare :Linda Wallström; Richard Sindelar; Anders Jonzon; Raffaele Dellaca'; Heikki Lukkarinen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Mechanical ventilation; extremely preterm infant; forced oscillation technique; volume targeted ventilation; proportional assist ventilation; phrenic nerve activity; electrical activity of the diaphragm; Pediatrik; Pediatrics;

    Sammanfattning : Extremely low gestational age newborns (ELGANs) i.e. infants born before 28 weeks of gestational age (GA), require respiratory support during their hospital stay, and a majority needs mechanical ventilation (MV) at some time point. LÄS MER
