Background Maternal weight and maternal weight gain during pregnancy exert a significant influence on infant birth weight and the incidence of macrosomia. Fetal macrosomia is associated with an increase in both adverse obstetric and neonatal outcome, and

Underweight at age 20 and pre-pregnancy and large-for-gestational-age births in Japanese women with gestational diabetes mellitus: Hamamatsu GRACE Study 4. [PDF]
In this retrospective study of 537 Japanese women with GDM, underweight at age 20 and before pregnancy was associated with a lower risk of delivering a LGA infant. These historical weight factors may help stratify fetal growth risk, although underweight should not be encouraged because of potential small for gestational age and low‐birth‐weight risks ...

Abstract Objective Oxytocin is commonly used in occiput posterior (OP) positions based on the assumption that it promotes rotation to the occiput anterior (OA) position, although supporting evidence is lacking. We compared OP‐to‐OA rotation at birth among women in whom oxytocin was discontinued versus continued during active labor.

Klippel‐Trénaunay‐Weber Syndrome: Prenatal Diagnosis and Review of the Literature
This meta‐analysis demonstrates the high diagnostic accuracy of SZ‐CEUS for differentiating between malignant and benign focal liver lesions, as well as for HCC from non‐HCC lesions. The study shows better performance for smaller lesions and those with a higher proportion of malignancy.

First‐Trimester Crown‐Rump Length and Large for Gestational Age Newborns: What Correlation?
Our research found for the first time that uneventful pregnancies with LGA neonates are characterized by larger than expected CRL at the first trimester. CRL is one of the new markers that can be used to early identify fetuses at risk of increased fetal growth.

Antenatal macrosomia prediction using sonographic fetal abdominal circumference in South Tunisia
INTRODUCTION: Identifying newborns who weight 4000 g or more is important because birth of macrosomic fetuses is associated with adverse peripartum outcomes.Ultrasound is widely used for this purpose Our objective wasto evaluate the diagnostic value of ...

The Predictive Accuracy of Prenatal Ultrasound for Macrosomia—A Retrospective Cohort Study
Third‐trimester fetal weight estimation has limited predictive accuracy for neonatal macrosomia (low sensitivity and PPV) but may influence clinical decisions as it is strongly associated with labor induction. Prenatal macrosomia diagnosis should therefore be cautiously interpreted. ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of third‐
