ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...

The Experience of Amnioinfusion for Oligohydramnios During the Early Second Trimester
Objective: In the past, oligohydramnios occurring early during the secondary trimester was the reason to terminate the pregnancy because of poor prognosis. Even though amnioinfusion has been reported for improving the prognosis of the infant, it is still

Pregnancy‐associated breast cancer (PrBC) presents therapeutic challenges. Understanding maternal–fetal safety of systemic anticancer therapies is critical. We performed a case/non‐case disproportionality analysis using the WHO global pharmacovigilance database up to January 2024, to evaluate maternal–fetal outcomes associated with breast cancer (BC ...

Pain and fever are common in pregnancy. Dipyrone is widely used in Europe, Latin America, and parts of Asia, but is banned in other countries due to concerns about agranulocytosis. Evidence on its safety in pregnancy remains limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate whether maternal dipyrone use during the first‐ and third‐trimesters is ...

The rising tide: Trends in induction of labor at term over a 5‐year period at a single centre
Abstract Objective Induction of labor (IOL) is a controversial topic in contemporary obstetric practice, with some suggesting that the increase in elective induction (eIOL) as a potential contributor to increasing cesarean delivery (CD) rates. The objectives of this single‐center study were to examine the rates of IOL, trends in indications for IOL ...

A Randomized Controlled Trial to Compare the Efficacy of Three Different Methods of Maternal Hydration for Oligohydramnios [PDF]
Background: Oligohydramnios is defined as an Amniotic Fluid Index (AFI) of less than normal for that gestational age. It is mainly associated with increased perinatal morbidity and mortality due to cord compression, fetal distress, pulmonary hypoplasia ...

Abstract Objective Estimated fetal weight (EFW) is essential for managing pregnancy and delivery. Currently, two primary methods are used for EFW: Clinical and sonographic estimation. Both might be influenced by maternal habitus. Obesity has become a global epidemic; however, its effect on EFW and the accuracy of the two methods has yet to be ...

The Association between N-terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide Levels in the Umbilical Vein and Amniotic Fluid Volume Abnormalities [PDF]
Purpose The amniotic fluid volume (AFV) is known as a predictor for the wellness of a fetus. We aimed to investigate whether N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) levels reflect AFV abnormalities in otherwise normal fetuses.

Role of l-Arginine in Oligohydramnios [PDF]
Oligohydramnios is a known obstetric complication which is associated with operative interferences and perinatal morbidity and mortality. l-arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide and may play a role in local vasodilatation. Administration of l-arginine has been suggested to improve amniotic fluid index (AFI) in oligohydramnios.To study the effect of l-
