Intrauterine Growth Retardation and Fetal Cardiac Function
Fetal Diagnosis and Therapy, 2000Intrauterine growth retardation is a pathology which is found in 3–10% of all pregnancies and it is associated with around 20–25% of all fetal intrauterine deaths and with long-term neurologic sequelae. It presents an increased risk of distress during labor and delivery and a greater risk of perinatal mortality.

Fetal cardiac function in intrauterine growth retardation
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1991Blood-flow velocity waveforms are altered in several peripheral vascular beds of fetuses whose intrauterine growth is retarded because of placental insufficiency. We investigated these concomitant changes in cardiac function. Color and pulsed Doppler echocardiographic recordings were performed in 124 fetuses with intrauterine growth retardation.

Intrauterine Fetal Growth Retardation
1981There has been an awareness throughout the history of civilization that runting may occur in various animal species, particularly those of a polytocous reproductive nature. However, it was only three decades ago that McBurney helped focus attention on the problem of human fetal growth retardation with his manuscript entitled The Undernourished Full ...

Fetal growth retardation remains an important problem in obstetrics and gynecology in the 1990s. In recent years, studies of this subject have grown considerably. Improvements in new technology for prenatal fetal diagnosis, such as ultrasound and Doppler studies, genetic evaluations, and fetal umbilical blood sampling, have contributed tremendously to ...

Fetal testing in intra-uterine growth retardation
Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1997There are three major issues that remain subject to debate in relation to fetal growth retardation: (1) Which method should be used to identify the affected population? (2) Which biophysical test(s) is most appropriate to assess the pregnancy? (3) Which factors are important when considering elective delivery?

Treatment of fetal growth retardation
1989In the management of pregnancies with small for gestational age (SGA) fetuses the main aim is to distinguish between normal small fetuses, not at increased risk of perinatal death or chronic handicap, and fetuses that are growth retarded due to uteroplacental or fetal insufficiency.

Uteroplacental Hemostasis in Intrauterine Fetal Growth Retardation
Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 1999During pregnancy, extensive hemostatic changes occur in the uteroplacental circulation. Invading endovascular trophoblast cells induce physiological adaptations of uterine spiral arteries, required to accommodate the increased maternal blood flow to the intervillous space of the placenta as pregnancy advances.

Fetal alpha‐fetoprotein concentration in growth retardation
BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1989Raised maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in the absence of fetal malformations has been associated with adverse pregnancy outcome such as low birthweight and intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) (Nelson et al. 1987). Although impaired placental function predisposing to fetomaternal haemorrhage is the suggested mechanism increased fetal ...

Fetal magnetoencephalography in intrauterine growth retarded pregnancies
Prenatal Diagnosis, 2002AbstractObjectiveTo investigate the fetal brain activity in pre‐eclamptic and normal pregnancies. Biomagnetic measurements were performed by means of a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) in an electrically shielded room of low magnetic noise.MethodsThe study population included 28 pre‐eclamptic (34–37 weeks' gestation) and 19 normal ...

Antenatal Pregnancy Complications and Fetal Growth Retardation
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1982Summary: This study reports the associations between antenatal complications, subnormal urinary oestriol excretion and perinatal death in 500 pregnancies when the baby weighed less than the 10th centile for gestational age at birth, compared with those in a series of 500 pregnancies when the baby was of a normal weight for gestation.
