1. 1. Estimating Brain Maturation in Very Preterm Neonates : An Explainable Machine Learning Approach

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Author : Patrik Svensson; [2023]
   Keywords : Preterm Neonates; Brain Maturation; aEEG; Explainable Machine Learning; Feature Importance;

   Abstract : Introduction: Assessing brain maturation in preterm neonates is essential for the health of the neonates. Machine learning methods have been introduced as a prospective assessment tool for neonatal electroencephalogram(EEG) signals. READ MORE

3. 2. Gas in Scattering Media Absorption Spectroscopy in Large Geometries: Towards Monitoring Oxygen in Adult Lungs

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Anna Brandt; [2022]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : GAs in Scattering Media Absorption Spectroscopy (GASMAS) is a technique to study free gas inside strongly scattering bulk-materials. GASMAS is successful in safely measuring oxygen in lungs of neonates, with low-power tuneable diode-laser spectroscopy at 760 nm. READ MORE

4. 3. The effect of early, continuous skin-to-skin contact on the mortality of preterm neonates : a systematic literature review

   University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

   Author : Ella Gatehouse; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Introduction Early skin-to-skin contact is an intervention that involves a newborn lying on their mother’s chest within 24 hours of birth. It has previously been supported to reduce the mortality of preterm infants. READ MORE

5. 4. Genetics of complement proteins among Swedish newborns

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Xinyao Sun; [2022]
   Keywords : genetics; complement protein; newborns; haplotype analysis;

   Abstract : Complement proteins play an important role in the body's immune processes and involve in the pathology of many diseases in human, such as major depressive disorder and schizophrenia. Understanding the genetics of those proteins is an important step toward unraveling their effects on psychiatric disorders. READ MORE

6. 5. Automatic magnetic resonance brain volume measurements to assess the effect of minimised blood sample extraction on brain development in extremely preterm infants

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Läkarutbildningen

   Author : Hickmat Hamie; [2021]
   Keywords : Magnetic resonance imaging; Brain development; Prematurity; Medicine and Health Sciences;

   Abstract : Aim: To evaluate a pipeline for automatic MRI brain segmentation and volumetric tissue structure quantification in a cohort of extremely preterm infants. Methods: 13 extremely preterm neonates underwent MRI-scanning at a term equivalent age. Seven of these subjects had suitable MRI sequences and were analyzed in the pipeline. READ MORE
