Maternal fetal leakage (FMH) is a well-known cause of anemia. We define it as the transition erythrocytes into maternal circulation. Its severity determined by measuring level hemoglobin in mother's blood using Kleinhauer-Betke test or cytometric method (FCM). The paper presents case newborn with massive maternal-fetal leakage. Kleinhauer result was greater than 5% cells, and initial neonatal 3...

to evaluate the effects of local administration of the fetal brain extract (fbe) on the crushed peripheral nerve, 15 male wistar rats were used. the right sciatic nerve of 10 rats was locally underwent the tense compression for 30 seconds and then randomly divided into experimental and control (sham) groups. the remained rats were considered as intact animals. treatment was commenced weekly, by...

background detection of fetal dna in maternal blood has been examined by many research groups for a few years; thereby, scientists have a shorter way to take to approach prenatal diagnosis of abnormal pregnancies. the y chromosome sequences have recently become the most common applicable indices for fetal sex determination. objectives we conducted an algorithmic x and y mini-short tandem repeat...

objective(s): maternal high-fat diet has been shown to have deleterious effects on the offspring bones. however, there is no study to assess the effects of type and amount of maternal dietary oil in an isocaloric diet, with focus on extra virgin olive oil (evoo). the objective of the current study was to test the hypothesis that type of maternal dietary oil has more effects than its amount in a...

background: the objective of the study was to evaluate the presence of neospora caninum organisms in the brain of aborted fetuses and placentas of full-term calves born of seropositive cows. methods: during 2006-2007, 12 brains of aborted calves from neospora seropositive cattle and 7 pla­centas from seropositive dams giving birth to full-term calves, from four dairy cattle farms located around...

in this paper, we propose a technique of artificial intelligence called adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) for canceling maternal electrocardiogram (mecg) in fetal electrocardiogram extraction (fecg).this technique is used to estimate the mecg present in the abdominal signal of a pregnant woman. the fecg is then extracted by subtracting the estimated mecg from the abdominal signal. p...

introduction fetal movement started at the 7th weeks of pregnancy and by the end of pregnancy will gradually be perfect and harmonious. near-term fetuses can discriminate acoustic features, such as frequencies and spectra, and process complex auditory streams. in this study, we aimed to evaluate fatal movement in response to music and vibration stimulation. materials and methods this study is a...

conclusions vitamin c supplementations after 14th weeks of gestation can prevent from pprom in women with the history of pprom. results pprom occurred in 44.7% of controls and 31.8% of cases (p < 0.05). prom occurred in 34.1% of controls and 18.8% of cases (p < 0.05). pregnancy was terminated at term gestation in 21.2% of controls and 49.4% of cases (p < 0.05). rupture of membranes was signific...

in previous years, identification of fetal cells in maternal blood circulation has caused a new revolution in non-invasive method of prenatal diagnosis. low number of fetal cells in maternal blood and long-term survival after pregnancy limited the use of fetal cells in diagnostic and clinical applications. with the discovery of cell-free fetal dna (cffdna) in plasma of pregnant women, access to...

the ultrasonic measurement of the fetal femur length is a sensitive and precise variable for estimation of fetal growth and development. tlte objective of this study was to predict gestational age in fetuses older ttian twenty-four weeks of gestation by ultrasonic measurement of the femur length. in this study, pregnant mothers were identified by the criteria of normality, such as well-known lm...
