Maternal calcium metabolic stress and fetal growth.
BACKGROUND Suboptimal maternal calcium intake and vitamin D status may or may not adversely influence fetal growth. OBJECTIVE It was hypothesized that maternal calcium metabolic stress in early pregnancy, rather than suboptimal calcium intake or insufficient vitamin D, influences the risk of small-for-gestational-age (SGA) births and other aspects of fetal growth. Stress to calcium metabolism...
متن کاملFetal DNA clearance from maternal plasma is impaired in preeclampsia.
BACKGROUND Increased fetal DNA in maternal plasma/serum has been reported in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia. We hypothesized that impaired clearance of fetal DNA might contribute, at least in part, to the above-mentioned phenomenon. METHODS We studied 7 preeclamptic and 10 control pregnant women. All had male fetuses. Serial blood samples were obtained from before delivery to 6 h pos...
متن کاملEffect of increased maternal hemoglobin oxygen affinity on fetal growth in the rat.
A disparity between fetal and maternal hemoglobin oxygen affinities (i.e., p < pfl t.rfl&) believed to be important in facilitating oxygen transfer from maternal to fetal circulation. However. human females with high oxygen affinity mutant hemoglobins (pmaternal < p aI) have successfully borne children. calling into question the importance of the usual maternal/fetal P gradient. We have investi...
متن کاملMaternal administration of flecainide to terminate and suppress fetal tachycardia.
Fetal echocardiography has allowed fetal arrhythmias to be identified and accurately diagnosed. Because a fetal tachycardia is often detected before an elective delivery is safe considerable interest has focused on treatment by giving drugs to the mother. Digoxin is accepted as the drug of first choice, but no consensus exists on second line drugs.' 2 We present the first report of giving fleca...
متن کاملMaternal Lipids Are as Important as Glucose for Fetal Growth
OBJECTIVE To study the relationship between maternal circulating fuels and neonatal size and compare the relative effects of glucose and lipids. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The Pune Maternal Nutrition Study (1993-1996) investigated the influence of maternal nutrition on fetal growth. We measured maternal body size and glucose and lipid concentrations during pregnancy and examined their relati...
