Does fetal growth restriction influence body composition at school age?
OBJECTIVE To assess the influence of low birth weight in full-term infants on body composition at school age. METHOD This is a cross-sectional study nested in a cohort of 375 infants recruited at birth between 1993 and 1994 in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. At 8 years of age, the body composition of 213 children from this cohort was assessed by measurement of triceps and subscapular skinfol...
متن کاملExtrinsic Factors Influencing Fetal Deformations and Intrauterine Growth Restriction
The causes of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) are multifactorial with both intrinsic and extrinsic influences. While many studies focus on the intrinsic pathological causes, the possible long-term consequences resulting from extrinsic intrauterine physiological constraints merit additional consideration and further investigation. Infants with IUGR can exhibit early symmetric or late asym...
متن کاملEvaluation of Abdominal Fetal Electrocardiography in Early Intrauterine Growth Restriction
Objectives: This descriptive study was performed to evaluate the capability of a non-invasive transabdominal electrocardiographic system to extract clear fetal electrocardiographic (FECG) measurements from intrauterine growth restricted (IUGR) fetuses and to assess whether abdominal FECG parameters can be developed as markers for evaluating the fetal cardiac status in IUGR. Methods: Transabdomi...
متن کاملThe importance of fetal gender in intrauterine growth restriction
UNLABELLED One of the most important causes of perinatal mortality and morbidity complicating significant percentage pregnancies is intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Fetal growth restriction is the main cause of intrauterine fetal death and the second leading cause of death in the neonatal period. Numerous studies in different populations reveal an association between intrauterine growth ...
متن کاملAngiogenic growth factors in maternal and fetal serum in pregnancies complicated by intrauterine growth restriction.
The present study was performed to compare serum concentrations of maternal and fetal angiogenic growth factors in IUGR (intrauterine growth restriction) and normal pregnancy at the time of delivery. VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor), PlGF (placental growth factor), sFlt-1 (soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1), sKDR (soluble kinase domain receptor) and bFGF (basic fibroblast growth facto...
