Fetal Ductus Venosus Pulsatility Index and Diameter during Second and Third Trimester of Gestation
Introduction: The ductus venosus is a small funnel shaped vessel found posterior to the fetal liver connecting the intra-abdominal umbilical vein and the inferior vena cava. It is one of the three physiological shunts in the fetus.

Background: Higher cerebral blood flow (CBF) pulsatility was found to be associated with severer brain white matter lesions in the elderly [1]. It was hypothesized that the central/elastic arterial stiffness/compliance may directly affect CBF pulsatility.

Objective: To uncover a correlation between a high uterine artery pulsatility index on Doppler ultrasound and the early onset of pre-eclampsia to reduce maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Study Design: Quasi-experimental study.

Early detection of microstructural white matter changes associated with arterial pulsatility
Increased cerebral blood flow pulsatility is common in vascular dementia and is associated with macrostructural damage to cerebral white matter or leukoaraiosis (LA).

Maternal Body Mass Index influences Umbilical Artery Doppler Velocimetry in physiologic pregnancies. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: The aim of our study was to assess whether there is a relationship between maternal body mass index (BMI) and umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry in physiologic pregnancies. METHODS: Healthy pregnancy women, referred to our center at or

Combined Utility of Aortic Pulsatility Index and Pulmonary Artery Pulsatility Index for Risk Stratification in Advanced Heart Failure Patients [PDF]
Purpose To assess the prognostic role of simultaneous biventricular function using hemodynamic parameters in advanced heart failure patients. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 184 patients undergoing a milrinone drug study at time of right heart catheterization (RHC) at our institution from January 2013 to January 2019. Aortic pulsatility index (

Pulmonary vein pulsatility in fetuses of diabetic mothers: prenatal Doppler echocardiographic study [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To verify the hypothesis that the pulmonary vein pulsatility index is higher in fetuses of diabetic mothers than it is in normal fetuses of nondiabetic mothers.

Doppler sonography of the uterine and the cubital arteries in normal pregnancies, preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction: evidence for a systemic vessel involvement [PDF]
Aims: The decrease in uterine resistance during normal pregnancy is known to be related to invading trophoblast cells which derive from placental tissue. Uterine and peripheral resistance is elevated in preeclampsia.

Objective: The aim of our study was to evaluate the usefulness of the pulsatility index (PI) of the umbilical artery (UA) and that of the fetal middle cerebral artery (MCA), as well as the ratio of the MCA PI to the UA PI (C/U ratio), in the diagnosis ...
