Toward implementation of lactate compared with pH in fetal scalp blood sampling during labor: A clinical comparative single‐center study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica
Introduction Since 60 years, pH measurement in fetal scalp blood samples (FBS) is used to diagnose fetal hypoxia during labor, although the last three decades lactate measurement in FBS has been increasingly used as a safe alternative with a lower chance

Fetal heart rate monitoring practices at a public hospital in Northern Uganda – what health workers document, do and say

Global Health Action, 2020
Background: In Uganda, perinatal mortality is 38 per 1000 pregnancies. One-third of these deaths are due to birth asphyxia. Adequate fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring during labor may detect birth asphyxia but little is known about monitoring practices ...

Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders: strategies to address information gaps [PDF]

, 2014
Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) is emerging as a public health issue in Australia. Health-care providers and policy makers need accurate and timely data in a useable format to monitor and prevent FASD.

Aquaporin‐3 and aquaporin‐5 impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma spheroids

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the role of aquaporin‐3 (AQP3) and aquaporin‐5 (AQP5) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Both proteins are upregulated in PDAC and are associated with tumor progression and metastatic potential. Silencing AQP3 or AQP5 in PDAC spheroids results in decreased diameter, area, and overall growth, underscoring their key ...

Intersectional dynamics and care disparities in intrapartum electronic fetal monitoring: a socio-technical systems perspective

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth
Background Intrapartum Electronic Fetal Monitoring interpretation is subjective, variable and dependent on clinical expertise. Electronic Fetal Monitoring is also influenced by human factors, such as the labour ward context, staffing pressures ...

Sensors for Fetal Hypoxia and Metabolic Acidosis: A Review

Sensors, 2018
This article reviews existing clinical practices and sensor research undertaken to monitor fetal well-being during labour. Current clinical practices that include fetal heart rate monitoring and fetal scalp blood sampling are shown to be either ...

Hyperosmotic stress‐induced redistribution of pre‐mRNA cleavage factor I subunits is associated with shifts in alternative polyadenylation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Hyperosmotic stress triggers the relocation of the CFIm complex from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. This shift creates a nuclear ‘stoichiometric bottleneck’, limiting CFIm availability for mRNA processing. Consequently, specific mRNAs like NUDT21 and DICER1 undergo targeted 3′UTR shortening, demonstrating how spatial protein dynamics drive rapid ...

Effect of constructivist teaching in the improvement of midwives’ interpretation ability in fetal monitor graphs

BMC Medical Education
Background Accurate interpretation of fetal monitoring results is particularly significant in dealing with safety issues during delivery. There are different education programs on fetal monitoring and the education effects are unsatisfactory.

Effects of IGFBP4 deficiency on human preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation through the IGF1R/AKT pathway

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
IGFBP4 knockdown (KD) impairs preadipocyte proliferation and is associated with IGF1R protein downregulation and attenuated AKT phosphorylation. The mechanisms by which IGFBP4 KD influences the IGF1R/AKT signaling pathway involve newly synthesized proteins and lysosomal degradation pathways. Created in BioRender.

Fetal tachycardia : intrauterine and postnatal course

, 1997
Eighteen consecutive cases of fetal tachycardia referred to the department of Pediatric Cardiology, Uppsala University, were studied retrospectively. All cases were detected at a routine visit at an antenatal clinic.
