Genetic regulation and variation of fetal plasma metabolome in the context of sex, paternal breeds and variable fetal weight [PDF]

Open Biology
Metabolic processes in fetuses can significantly influence piglet weight at birth. Understanding the genetic determinants of systemic metabolism is crucial for uncovering how genetic and molecular pathways impact biological mechanisms, particularly ...

Second Trimester Estimated Fetal Weight and Fetal Weight Gain Predict Childhood Obesity [PDF]

Journal of Pediatrics, 2012
To determine the extent to which fetal weight during mid-pregnancy and fetal weight gain from mid-pregnancy to birth predict adiposity and blood pressure (BP) at age 3 years.Among 438 children in the Project Viva cohort, we estimated fetal weight at 16-20 (median 18) weeks' gestation using ultrasound biometry measures.

The Prediction of Intrapartum Fetal Compromise According to the Expected Fetal Weight. [PDF]

J Pers Med
Objectives: To assess the predictive accuracy of the expected fetal weight in the third trimester (ExFW3t), based on the estimated fetal weight (EFW) at mid-trimester ultrasound scan, for the prediction of intrapartum fetal compromise (IFC) (an abnormal intrapartum fetal heart rate or intrapartum fetal scalp pH requiring urgent cesarean section ...

A prospective blinded diagnostic accuracy study to assess the accuracy of fetal weight estimation at term by clinical method using Leopold’s maneuvers and ultrasonography in predicting the actual birth weight [PDF]

Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care
Context Over-medicalization of normal pregnancy is associated with unnecessary inductions of labor leading to operative deliveries. In a busy outpatient department (OPD) or low-resource setup where ultrasound availability, experience, and cost will be a ...

Fetal Medicine Foundation fetal and neonatal population weight charts [PDF]

Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2018
ABSTRACTObjectiveTo develop fetal and neonatal population weight charts. The rationale was that, while reference ranges of estimated fetal weight (EFW) are representative of the whole population, the traditional approach of deriving birth‐weight (BW) charts is misleading, because a large proportion of babies born preterm arise from pathological ...

Investigating the accuracy of Johnson’s rule in estimating fetal weight [PDF]

Journal of Education and Health Promotion
BACKGROUND: Birth weight has a significant impact on perinatal mortality. Therefore, the estimation of fetal weight greatly influences the policies necessary for care during and after delivery.

First-trimester Uterine Artery Doppler Indices in the Prediction of Small-for-gestational Age Pregnancy and Intrauterine Growth Restriction in Low Risk Population [PDF]

Al-Azhar International Medical Journal, 2022
Background: Small-for-Gestational-Age (SGA) neonates have been connected with a higher risk of poor perinatal results, particularly when associated with placental insufficiency, which would be accountable for a large proportion of perinatal complications.

Observer Influence with Other Variables on the Accuracy of Ultrasound Estimation of Fetal Weight at Term

Medicina, 2021
Background and Objectives: The accuracy with which the estimation of fetal weight (EFW) at term is determined is useful in order to address obstetric complications, since it is a parameter that represents an important prognostic factor for perinatal and ...

Determination of fetal weight by ultrasonographic evaluation of fetal mid-thigh soft-tissue thickness in late third trimester

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023
Background: Estimation of fetal weight is of utmost importance in the planning and management of uneventful labor. This study was done to compare the estimated fetal weight determined by Hadlock’s method and Scioscia’s formula (using femur length and mid-
