2. 16. Genetic and epidemiological aspects of implantation defects : Studies on recurrent miscarriage, preeclampsia and oocyte donation

   Author : Evangelia Elenis; Agneta Skoog Svanberg; Alkistis Skalkidou; Gunilla Sydsjö; Helena Åkerud; Anja Pinborg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Angiogenesis; genetic polymorphism; gestational hypertensive disorders; Histidine-rich glycoprotein; HRG; implantation defect; oocyte donation; placentation; preeclampsia; recurrent miscarriage; SNP.; Obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrics and Gynaecology;

   Abstract : Implantation requires complex molecular and cellular events involving coagulation, angiogenesis and immunological processes that need to be well regulated for a pregnancy to establish and progress normally.  The overall aim of this thesis was to study different models associated with atypical angiogenesis, impaired implantation and/or placentation, such as recurrent miscarriage (RM), oocyte donation (OD) and preeclampsia.

4. 17. Cancer and male reproductive function- the effect on sperm DNA integrity and on birth outcomes in the offspring

   Author : Olof Ståhl; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SCSA; birth outcomes; sperm DNA integrity; male cancer; fertility;

   Abstract : Male cancer survivors (MCS) are at risk of suffering from impaired fertility. Male fertility is dependant on sperm DNA quality. The Sperm Chromatin Structure Assay (SCSA) reflects the proportion of sperm with poor DNA, the DNA fragmentation index, DFI. READ MORE

5. 18. Mood Disorders, Personality and Grief in Women and Men undergoing in vitro Fertilization Treatment

6. 19. Genetic studies in early embryos with emphasis on preimplantation genetic diagnosis

   Author : Erik Iwarsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : chromosomal abnormality 1 embryo fluorescent in situ hybridisation FISH 1 in vitro fertilisation IVF 1 preimplantation genetic diagnosis PGD ;

   Abstract : It has been estimated that as much as 70-80% of all human conceptions do not develop to term. A majority of clinically recognisable pregnancies, which are miscarried, contain chromosome abnormalities. However, data from very early embryo development are difficult to obtain. READ MORE

7. 20. Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Aspects on immune and endocrine mechanisms

   Author : Anders Enskog; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; controlled ovarian hyperstimulation; cytokine; inhibin; interleukin-10; in vitro fertilisation; ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome; nitric oxide; vascular endothelial growth factor;

   Abstract : The ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a well-known side effect of ovarian stimulation for ovulation induction or for in vitro fertilisation. The syndrome is characterised by massively enlarged ovaries and a hyperpermeable/procoagulant state, giving rise to diverse symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, ascites, hypovolemia and thromboembolism.
