Venous reserve capacity & autonomic function in formerly preeclamptic women.

74390.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)Formerly preeclamptic women with pre-pregnant low plasma volume have a three-fold higher chance to develop recurrent gestational hypertensive disease than women with normal plasma volume. Previous studies have suggested that those women with low plasma volume have relatively low venous capacitance and high resting sympathetic tone, but exhibit no compensatory neuro-humoral regulatory changes. These changes may reflect either small size or altered function of the venous compartment, and/or impaired autonomic regulation. The aim of this thesis was to improve our understanding of the regulation of the venous and autonomic system in formerly preeclamptic women with low plasma volume as compared to those with normal plasma volume. Our results indicate that formerly preeclamptic women with low plasma volume have a reduced venous reserve capacity and impaired autonomic regulation. raining induced an increase in plasma volume and global and calf venous compliance and a reduction in resting heart rate. This suggests that training improves venous function through a reduction in sympathetic activity. Provided that these observations are confirmed in a larger study, exercise training could well be one of the better methods to improve maternal venous function prior to pregnancy and thereby pregnancy outcome. We speculate that the reduced venous reserve capacity will prevent normal plasma volume expansion in early pregnancy, and that the compensatory sympathetic dominance results in endothelial dysfunction and eventually in (recurrent) gestational hypertensive diseaseRU Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen, 06 maart 2009Promotor : Lotgering, F.K.

98550.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)Roeters van Lennep et al. recently evaluated efficacy and safety of thromboprophylaxis with low dose low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) in women with intermediate and high risk of pregnancy-related venous thromboembolism (VTE). Lessons to be drawn from this study are that the risk of VTE should be estimated preconceptionally, that the current LMWH prophylaxis is sufficient during pregnancy and the post-partum period for women with an intermediate risk of VTE, that from a haemostatic point of view the post-partum period does not end at 6 weeks but at 3 months, and that the prophylactic LMWH dosage is insufficient in 1 out of 20 women with a high risk of VTE
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
