    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Chorangioma (CA), although, is the most common non-trophoblastic, vascular, tumor-likelesion of the placenta with incidence approximately 0.5-1% of all examined placentas, the specific etiology and genetic background of these lesions is still poorly understood. READ MORE

  2. 2. Prediction of Spontaneous Preterm Birth : Clinical and Immunological Aspects

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Background: Preterm birth (PTB), defined as birth before 37 weeks of gestation, accounts for most neonatal death and morbidity. Accurate prediction is a pre-requisite for the prevention and proper management of PTB. However, methods for prediction are unsatisfactory, although sonographic cervical length has a moderate predictive value. READ MORE

  3. 3. Inference of systems-level behaviors in the immune system from single-cell data

    Author : Dieudonné Nkulikiyimfura; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Understanding the systems-level behaviours of the immune system requires profiling many parameters of its constituents as well as identifying environmental factors influencing the time evolution of immune response. Recent advances in technologies enable multiple cellular components to be measured simultaneously at an unprecedented scale and resolution across many individuals, and the resulting data could be used to meet this goal.

  4. 4. Respiratory control in the newborn : central chemosensitivity, neuropeptides and nicotinic effects

    Author : Ronny Wickström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Breathing is regulated by a complex network of neurons located mainly in the brainstem. For the newborn, it is critical for survival that a continuous respiration is established after birth. However, the regulation of respiration also undergoes maturation in the postnatal period.

  5. 5. Developmental exposure to mixtures of persistent environmental pllutants with focus on bone and retinoid system modulations

    Author : Lubna E Elabbas; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Environmental pollution of Arctic regions has evoked a scientific as well as public concern. Arctic Inuit inhabitants consume large amounts of fatty fish and marine mammals and are therefore exposed to levels of environmental toxicants that are suspected to cause adverse health effects.
