The causes of preterm birth are unknown, resulting in ineffective treatment, but it is correlated with ascension of vaginal bacteria through the cervix, which is normally protected by a dense mucus plug during pregnancy.

Abstract:

Abstract About 11% of infants are born preterm (before 37 weeks of gestation) worldwide. Adults born preterm with very low birth weight show enhancement of cardiometabolic risk factors such as elevated blood pressure and impaired glucose regulation compared with their peers born at term. Not all the cardiometabolic risk factors related to preterm birth are known, or whether they apply to those born less preterm, although about 80% of premature infants are born late preterm. The association between preterm birth and cardiometabolic risk factors in adolescence and adulthood was investigated in t

Abstract:

While the advent of assisted reproductive technology (ART) has had a tremendous impact on infertile couples globally, an unintended consequence associated with its use has been a higher risk of complications in pregnancy. Beyond the increased risk due to multiple births, ART has long been associated with preterm birth and other adverse outcomes. However, numerous studies show that pregnancies conceived naturally after a period of infertility are also at elevated risk. The question of whether the increased risk of preterm birth in pregnancies conceived with ART is also the result of infertility

This thesis uses a multi-disciplinary approach to study cognitive-neurophysiological processes underlying attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and the underlying risk pathways from preterm birth to ADHD. In the first part of the thesis we use a measure of peripheral arousal (skin conductance) to better understand arousal dysregulation in ADHD and how it relates to cognitive performance. We show, using a large ADHD and control sibling sample, that ADHD is associated with peripheral hypo-arousal, and that a familial aetiology underlies the relationship between hypo-arousal and fluctu

Advancements in clinical care have led to a growing cohort of preterm-born individuals now entering adulthood. Before birth, such adults were often exposed to a suboptimal intrauterine environment, and after delivery, key developmental stages that would normally occur in utero during the third trimester had to take place under ex utero physiological conditions. Through detailed cardiovascular phenotyping, this thesis investigates the cardiovascular changes in preterm-born young adults, utilising a cohort of individuals with data collection since recruitment at birth.

There are increasing concerns about the excessive use of cesarean delivery in the United States, as cesarean deliveries have been associated with adverse maternal and infant health outcomes. Currently, the cesarean section (C/S) rate for Florida is the second highest in the nation. Furthermore, preliminary reports from the Florida Department of Health (FDOH) have implicated the increasing rate of cesarean delivery to an increase in the rate of late preterm births (PTB) in Florida (births at 34 to 36 weeks gestational age).

High infant mortality (IM) rates in the U.S. have been a major public health concern for decades. Many studies have focused on understanding causes, risk factors, and interventions that can reduce IM. However, death of an infant is the result of the interplay between many risk factors, which in some cases can be traced to the infancy of their parents. Consequently, these complex interactions challenge the effectiveness of many interventions.

Introdução: O comportamento motor é primordial e se manifesta em todas as fases da vida. No entanto, algumas crianças apresentam atrasos marcantes na aquisição de habilidades motoras que podem acarretar em dificuldades futuras. Evidências da literatura têm sugerido que os fatores presentes no período pré-natal e de nascimento, tais como a restrição do crescimento intrauterino (RCIU) e o nascimento pré-termo (PT) podem atuar de maneira significativa no curso do desenvolvimento motor (DM) ao longo do tempo. Contudo, os resultados apresentados por estudos que investigaram o impacto do PT, RCIU e

Abstract:

Preterm birth is a persistent and expensive global health problem accounting for almost 8% of all live births in the UK. There are some effective interventions available however, due to the heterogeneous nature of the condition; it is still difficult to tailor the correct management for each woman. A major obstacle to the development of effective treatment strategies is a limited understanding of the molecular events preceding preterm labour. Using SCOPE, a prospectively acquired global cohort, this MD investigated the three areas of clinical risk factors, biomarker discovery using proteomic t

Abstract:

Preterm birth (PTB) is defined as birth before 37 weeks gestational age. PTB is a common outcome and one that may be increasing in prevalence with serious individual and public health implications both immediately and long term. While PTB is a pregnancy specific outcome it is more appropriately viewed as the culmination of risk factors present both before pregnancy and possibly in past generations. This thesis attempts to review the implications, risk factors and current prevention strategies directed at PTB while placing it in an intergenerational and life cycle context. Three novel investiga

Abstract:

Preterm birth is defined as delivery prior to 37 weeks’ completed gestation. It affects an average of 11% of pregnancies worldwide and is the leading cause of death in children under age 5. Many studies have identified associations between pregnancy lipid levels and increased risk for preterm birth. This thesis investigates the role of genetic variability associated with lipids and its relationship with preterm birth, and the relationship between pre-pregnancy dyslipidemia and risk for preterm birth. Genetic variability in the form of single-nucleotide polymorphisms, previously identified by g

Abstract:

CONTEXT: El part prematur (PP) segueix éssent la causa principal de morbimortalitat neonatal. En la població general, la taxa de PP és del 8-12%; malgrat això, diversos subgrups de gestants configuren poblacions de risc elevat de PP, com les dones amb antecedents de PP, les gestacions múltiples, o les dones que, durant la gestació, presenten episodis d’amenaça de part prematur (APP). Una longitud cervical (LC) ecogràfica curta s’ha convertit en el principal factor predictor de PP en pacients assimptomàtiques al segon trimestre, tant en gestacions úniques com gemel.lars.

Abstract:

Preterm labour is one of the leading causes of perinatal mortality and morbidity. Most premature babies die before the age of five, and if they survive they face a high risk of disabilities and impairments. SP-A and SP-D are pattern recognition, innate immune molecules that are responsible for the maintenance of pulmonary immunity and surfactant homeostasis. They have been localised in the human reproductive tract and implicated in pregnancy and the initiation of labour. We hypothesised that SP-A and SP-D could play an active role in the activation of the myometrium and the timing of parturiti
