Fetal Blood Volume and Fetal Placental Blood Flow in Lambs

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1973
SummaryIn the conscious, nonmedicated sheep fetus, blood volume strongly influences placental blood flow, a change of 1% in volume being associated with a change of 1.7 ± 0.1% in flow. This relationship is valid between blood volumes of 80 to 110% of normal, is independent of time over a period of several days and independent of concomitant changes in ...

Perinatal Gene Transfer to the Liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The liver acts as a host to many functions hence raising the possibility that any one may be compromised by a single gene defect. Inherited or de novo mutations in these genes may result in relatively mild diseases or be so devastating that death within

Acute fetal anemia diagnosed by middle cerebral artery Doppler velocimetry in stage v twin-twin transfusion syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In stage V twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), up to 50% of surviving twins die or experience permanent disabilities, likely due to acute intertwin hemorrhage resulting in sudden severe anemia of the survivor.

Adiponectin Deficiency Impairs Maternal Metabolic Adaptation to Pregnancy in Mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hypoadiponectinemia has been widely observed in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). To investigate the causal role of hypoadiponectinemia in GDM, adiponectin gene knockout (Adipoq-/- ) and wild-type (WT) mice were crossed to produce ...

Fetal and early neonatal interleukin-6 response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In 1998, a systemic fetal cytokine response, defined as a plasma interleukin-6 (IL-6) value above 11 pg/mL, was reported to be a major independent risk factor for the subsequent development of neonatal morbid events even after adjustments for gestational

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Quantitative analysis of normal fetal medulla oblongata volume and flow by three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasound

open access: yesTaiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2016
Objective: Assessment of the fetal medulla oblongata volume (MOV) and blood flow might be important in the evaluation of fetal brain growth. We used three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasound (3DPDUS) to assess the fetal MOV and blood flow index in ...
