Guidelines for the management of women with severe pre-eclampsia
2021
Abstract Objective To provide national guidelines for the management of women with severe pre-eclampsia. Design A consensus committee of 26 experts was formed. A formal conflict-of-interest (COI) policy was developed at the onset of the process and enforced throughout. The entire guidelines process was conducted independently of any industrial funding. The authors were advised to follow the principles of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE®) system to guide assessment of quality of evidence. The potential drawbacks of making strong recommendations in the presence of low-quality evidence were emphasised. Methods The last SFAR and CNGOF guidelines on t…
Influence of various preseason training in elite youth soccer players
2013
Aim Endurance capacity of each individual soccer player can notably influence a team’s success. The opinion about the necessity of generic endurance specific training in soccer, especially in adolescent athletes, still varies widely.
The effects of experimentally manipulated yolk androgens on growth and immune function of male and female nestling collared flycatchers Ficedula albi…
2009
Hormone-mediated maternal effects may be an important mechanism for adjusting offspring phenotype to particular requirements of the environment. We manipulated the levels of testosterone and androstenedione in the yolk of collared flycatcher Ficedula albicollis eggs to investigate the effects of pre-natal exposure to androgens on growth and immune function. Androgen treatment tended to reduce the growth of males, and enhance the growth of females, as indicated by significant interaction between sex and androgen treatment. Cellular immune function was not affected by androgen treatment or sex. Survival of nestlings until fledging was not related to androgen treatment. Our results indicate th…
Group psychoeducation with relaxation for severe fear of childbirth improves maternal adjustment and childbirth experience – a randomised controlled …
2014
Previous studies on the treatment of women with fear of childbirth have focused on the delivery mode. Women with fear of childbirth often suffer from anxiety and/or depression, and treatment therefore also needs to target postnatal psychological well-being and the early mother-infant relationship.Three hundred and seventy-one nulliparous women out of 4575 scored ≥100 in prospective screening (Wijma Delivery Expectancy Questionnaire, W-DEQ-A), indicating severe fear of childbirth. These women were randomised to psychoeducative group intervention with relaxation (n = 131; six sessions during pregnancy, one postnatal) or to conventional care (n = 240) by community nurses (referral if necessary…
Odontogenic fibroma — a case report
2014
Abstract IThe present study outlines the case of a 30-year-old patient with central odontogenic fibroma. The tumour developed in the alveolar process of the maxilla in the area of 13–15. The study describes the clinical symptoms, the radiological image, treatment method and histopathological image of the tumour. The study also presents a one-year period of post-surgical observation.

Depresijas un uztvertā emocionālā siltuma bērnībā saistība ar mātes narcistiskām personības iezīmēm 18-44 gadus veciem pieaugušajiem
2022
Pētījuma mērķis bija izpētīt saistības starp depresiju, uztverto emocionālo siltumu bērnībā un mātes narcistiskām personības iezīmēm 18 – 44 gadus veciem pieaugušajiem. Pētījums tika veikts divās atkarīgās izlasēs. Pirmo izlasi veido 80 pieaugušie vecumā no 18 līdz 44 gadiem (M = 30,04, SD = 7,75), kas aizpildīja Epidemioloģijas pētījumu centra depresijas skalu (Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (Eaton, Muntaner, Smith, Tien & Ybarra, 2004)), Latvijā aptauju adaptējušas M. Bērtule un I. Melne 2018. gadā (Bērtule & Melne, 2018), Vecāku attieksmes aptauju (Parental Bonding Instrument (Parker, Tupling & Brown, 1979)), Latvijā aptauju adaptējusi I. Bite 1998. gadā (Bite, 1998) u…
Mapping the actions of prolactin in the brain: sexual dimorphism, steroid regulation and the neuroendocrinology of maternal behaviour
2017
El comportamiento maternal cumple la función de proteger a la descendencia en su periodo de mayor vulnerabilidad y asegurar su supervivencia y bienestar. Esta colección de conductas sociales será expresada por la madre exclusivamente durante el periodo postparto, como resultado de la modulación del sustrato neural responsable de la expresión de la conducta social y reproductiva. Los agentes que llevan a cabo dicha modulación para inducir la expresión del comportamiento maternal incluyen, entre otros, señales endocrinas específicas de la gestación y lactancia. Entre éstas destaca la prolactina, hormona adenohipofisaria estrechamente vinculada con la adaptación del organismo a la maternidad. …
The medial amygdala as a key neural centre in maternal aggression: genetic, neural and behavioural analyses
2019
In rodents, as macrosmatic animals, chemosensory processing plays an instrumental role in guiding the expression of social, sexual and maternal behaviours. Social odours and pheromones are processed by the main and the accessory olfactory systems, which information converge mainly in the medial amygdala (Me). The Me, in turn, plays a central role in the vomeronasal–sensorimotor integration that leads to specific behavioural responses such as the above-mentioned social and maternal behaviours. Maternal behaviour comprises physiological and behavioural adaptations that help the dams to successfully raise their offspring. This behaviour is expressed in a wide range of vertebrate species and ca…
