Fetal Lymphocytes in the Maternal Blood [PDF]

open access: bronzeBlood, 1972
Abstract The fluorescence of the human Y chromosome after staining with quinacrine derivatives was used in an attempt to determine the prevalence of XY lymphocytes presumptively emanating from male fetuses in the blood of pregnant women. Seven women who subsequently gave birth to male infants had 0.03%-0.20% lymphocytes with a Y body. In

Measurement of androgen and estrogen concentrations in cord blood: accuracy, biological interpretation, and applications to understanding human behavioural development [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2014
Accurately measuring hormone exposure during prenatal life presents a methodological challenge and there is currently no “gold standard” approach. Ideally, circulating fetal hormone levels would be measured at repeated time points during pregnancy ...

Fetal Blood Transfusion: The Saviour

open access: yesAnnals of the National Academy of Medical Sciences (India), 2020
The purpose of this oration is to discuss the modality of highly specialized Intra vascular fetal blood transfusion and its various sites to perform fetal blood transfusion with the role of middle cerebral artery-peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV), as measured by Doppler ultrasound, in managing fetal anemia in Rh-alloimmunized pregnancies.

Three obstetric factors should be considered in umbilical cord blood donor selection [PDF]

open access: yesVojnosanitetski Pregled, 2020
Background/Aim. The umbilical cord blood (UCB) volume and hematopoietic stem cells count are used as indicators for hematopoietic potential of UBC units. These indicators are affected by a collection method and obstetric factors.

Cord Blood Advanced Lipoprotein Testing Reveals an Interaction between Gestational Diabetes and Birth-Weight and Suggests a New Early Biomarker of Infant Obesity

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Abnormal lipid metabolism is associated with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and is observed in neonates with abnormal fetal growth. However, the underlying specific changes in the lipoprotein profile remain poorly understood.

Tumor lysis syndrome in premature infant prompting early resection of a large sacrococcygeal teratoma: a case report

open access: yesBMC Pediatrics, 2023
Background Sacrococcygeal teratomas (SCTs) are the most common congenital neoplasm and often require resection soon after birth. There are rare reports of cardiac arrest during surgery due to manipulation of the tumor triggering secondary necrosis and ...

Perinatal granulopoiesis and risk of pediatric asthma

open access: yeseLife, 2021
There are perinatal characteristics, such as gestational age, reproducibly associated with the risk for pediatric asthma. Identification of biologic processes influenced by these characteristics could facilitate risk stratification or new therapeutic ...

Unveiling the Unborn: Advancing Fetal Health Classification through Machine Learning [PDF]

open access: yesAIH 2024, 1(1), 57:67, 2023
Fetal health classification is a critical task in obstetrics, enabling early identification and management of potential health problems. However, it remains challenging due to data complexity and limited labeled samples. This research paper presents a novel machine-learning approach for fetal health classification, leveraging a LightGBM classifier ...

Prenatal stress perturbs fetal iron homeostasis in a sex-specific manner [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports 2022, 2021
What is the influence of chronic maternal prenatal stress (PS) on fetal iron homeostasis? In a prospective case-control study in 164 pregnant women, we show that cord blood transferrin saturation is lower in male stressed neonates. The total effect of PS exposure on fetal ferritin revealed a decrease of 15.4% compared with controls.

Association of cord blood zinc level and birth weight in a sample of Iranian neonates

open access: yesInternational Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2020
Background: In addition to its short-term effects, low birth weight increases the risk of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in adult life. The quality of maternal diet including the macronutrient intake is very important in this regard.
