Abstract:

The main body of the work is a study of the rates of obstetric complications in 492 patients meeting ICD-9 criteria for schizophrenia, affective disorder and other functional psychosis, compared to their 797 non-psychotic siblings and to 2,460 normal controls. The main results, for each of the three diagnostic groups, indicate significant confounding between obstetric complications, maternal marital status and social class. No single obstetric complication remained associated with schizophrenia once these factors had been controlled for. Bleeding in pregnancy was associated with an increased r

Abstract:

Current research spans a wide range of objectives whose diversity includes the understanding of global epidemiology and the detailing of molecular interactions leading to specific pathologies. This work aligns more closely with the goal of mechanistic clarity by elucidating several aspects of signaling pathways involved in inflammatory and obstetric pathologies. Prior research has confirmed the role of Receptors for Advanced Glycation End-Products (RAGE) activation in signaling leading to chronic inflammation such as that observed in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Abstract:

There is no doubt a strong genetic component to psychosis, but family and twin studies have shown that simple genetic transmission is far from the whole story. Furthermore, a number of environmental factors have also been shown to increase risk of psychosis. Among these non genetic causes, Obstetric Complications (OCs) are among the best replicated. In order to get a better insight into the mechanisms by which OCs impact on brain development to increase the risk of psychosis, I employed a Gene X Environment causation model. A total of 377 psychotic patients, 65 controls and 103 unaffected sibl

This is why the reduction by three quarters of maternal mortality by 2015 has been fixed as target No. 5 of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Achieving this goal requires an annual decline of 5.5% of maternal mortality between 1990 and 2015. Unfortunately, the reduction as estimated in 1997 was less than 1% per year. Africa is the continent most affected by this problem. In 2010, the number of maternal mortality in the world was estimated to 287 000 and Africa was ho

Abstract:

Female genital mutilation (FGM) refers to all procedures involving removing parts or all of the external female genitalia for non-medical reasons. As a result of migration and asylum seeking from conflict and wars, FGM has become a transnational issue, affecting more than 200 million girls and women worldwide. It is a form of gender-based violence, a health and policy issue, and violates many human rights laws. FGM has serious physical, psychological, sexual, and reproductive consequences to girls and women. As FGM has a complex socio-cultural imperative, an understanding of the driving force

In Afghanistan, the majority of women continue to give birth at home because of poverty, difficult access to health facilities, or gender-based restrictions. Women are often brought into hospitals in moribund conditions after the onset of complications at home. A detailed understanding of the determinants of health care seeking delays is necessary in order to help identify strategies which could reduce the incidence of very severe complications and maternal deaths and improve foetal outcomes in complicated pregnancies.

Abstract:

Each year, many pregnancies are associated with obstetrical complications such as maternal pre-eclampsia (PET) and fetal intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Poor placentation is thought to contribute to these complications, but specific causes are largely unknown. Mouse models suggest that epigenetic mechanisms, in particular genomic imprinting, that alter gene regulation may help regulate placental development and embryonic growth. The first goal of this thesis is to examine if epigenetic modifications (i.e. DNA methylation) and altered expression of imprinted genes in the human placenta
