1. 21. Ontogeny of perception of maternal and nosocomial stimuli in infants

   Författare :Jakob Frie; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Preterm born infants in neonatal units experience unusual sensory inputs that can shape and nurture their developing brains differently from full-term healthy newborn infants. To improve the care of preterm infants and their neurodevelopmental outcomes, we need to understand how the brain functions at different developmental stages and implement this knowledge into clinical care and follow-up programs.

3. 22. Surfactant metabolism in the newborn : the impact of ventilation strategy and lung disease

   Författare :Kajsa Bohlin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Surface active agents; pulmonary surfactant; respiratory distress syndrome; stable isotope; artificial respiration; continuous positive airway pressure; metabolism; rabbit; compliance; preterm; newborn;

   Sammanfattning : Developmental deficiency in pulmonary surfactant leads to respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in preterm infants, but all newborns may have impaired surfactant metabolism secondary to lung disease or ventilator induced lung injury. Exogenous surfactant treatment is usually administered in conjunction with mechanical ventilation. LÄS MER

4. 23. Moderately preterm infants : studies on length of hospital stay and neonatal outcome

   Författare :Maria Altman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Objective: Moderately preterm infants account for a large proportion of admissions and bed-days in neonatal units. Determinants of length of hospital stay, contemporary measures of morbidity by gestational week and risk factors predicting neonatal morbidity have been poorly studied. LÄS MER

5. 24. Gender differences in perinatal morbidity and long term consequences of preterm birth

   Författare :Emma Elsmén; Lund Pediatrik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; morbidity; neonatal; gender; IL-1ra; salivary cortisol; blood pressure; circulatory; mortality; obstetrical complications; ventilatory twins;

   Sammanfattning : Newborn male infants have higher morbidity and mortality than female infants. Male fetal gender is associated with an overall increased risk of preterm birth and complications related to pregnancy are overrepresented in women carrying male fetuses. LÄS MER

7. 25. Brain functional near infrared spectroscopy in human infants : cerebral cortical haemodynamics coupled to neuronal activation in response to sensory stimulation

   Författare :Marco Bartocci; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Near infrared spectroscopy; newborn; infant; brain; sensory stimulation; cortical activation;

   Sammanfattning : The assessment of cortical activation in the neonatal brain is crucial in the study of brain development, as it provides precious information for how the newborn infant processes external or internal stimuli. Thus far functional studies of neonates aimed to assess cortical responses to certain external stimuli are very few, due to the lack of suitable techniques to monitor brain activity of the newborn.
