Circular Dichroism of Oxytocin and Several Oxytocin Analogues

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1968
The circular dichroic spectra of oxytocin and four analogues of oxytocin are presented at several pH values in the wave length interval, 220 to 320 mµ. The analogues are 2-isoleucine- and 2-glycine-oxytocin, in which the tyrosine residues in Position 2 have been replaced by isoleucine and glycine, respectively, as well as deamino-oxytocin and deamino-2-

Is pathological fetal Doppler cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) associated with adverse delivery outcomes in pregnancies complicated by fetal growth restriction undergoing labor induction? A retrospective cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The optimal delivery approach for fetal growth restriction (FGR) with pathological cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) remains uncertain. This study evaluated the association between isolated pathological CPR (<5th percentile) and delivery outcomes, specifically the rate of cesarean delivery (CD) due to non‐reassuring fetal heart rate ...

Adverse perinatal outcomes associated with macrosomia in nulliparous women: A multicenter cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Our study aimed to evaluate the combined risk of macrosomia and nulliparity.
