Plasma homoarginine concentrations in ewe's pregnancy and association with the number of fetuses

Research in Veterinary Science, 2022
A striking increase in homoarginine concentrations, about more than 100-fold that observed in humans, was recently reported during pregnancy in a nutritionally induced model of intra-uterine growth restriction in ewes. To determine whether this phenomenon is at least partially related to the nutritional regimen, estrus synchronization, or analytical ...

Chromosome copy number variants in fetuses with syndromic malformations

Birth Defects Research, 2017
Chromosome copy number variants (CNVs; gains and losses of DNA sequences >1 kb) are wide‐spread throughout the genome of healthy individuals. Laboratory studies show that a subset of CNVs are pathogenic, and not only can be responsible for the pathogenesis of major birth defects and cancer, but are also associated with neurodevelopmental disorders ...

Prenatal detection of chromosomal abnormalities and copy number variants in fetuses with ventriculomegaly

European Journal of Paediatric Neurology, 2020
To systematically investigate chromosomal abnormalities and copy number variants (CNVs) in fetuses with different types of ventriculomegaly (VM) by karyotyping and/or chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA).This retrospective study included 312 fetuses diagnosed with VM.

Gestational weight gain according to number of fetuses in Japanese women

Journal of Perinatal Medicine, 2013
Abstract Aim: It is unknown whether weekly maternal weight gain differs between Japanese women with singleton, twin, and triplet pregnancies. Methods: Gestational weight gain defined as net weight gain during pregnancy was analyzed in 135,036 pregnant Japanese women, including 128,838 ...

The initial number of fetuses in multiple pregnancy before reduction affects perinatal outcomes

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research, 2023
AbstractObjectiveIn this study, we aimed to evaluate the perinatal outcomes of dichorionic diamniotic (DCDA) twin pregnancies reduced by the fetal reduction (FR) procedure and cases with continuing DCDA twin pregnancies without FR.Materials and MethodsFR performed in a university hospital in the last 10 years was evaluated.

Reduction of the number of fetuses for women with a multiple pregnancy

2012
When couples are faced with the dilemma of a higher-order multiple pregnancy there are three options. Termination of the entire pregnancy has generally not been acceptable to women, especially for those with a past history of infertility. Attempting to continue with all the fetuses is associated with inherent problems of preterm birth, survival and ...

Relationships Between Uterine Length and Number of Fetuses and Prenatal Mortality in Pigs

Journal of Animal Science, 1987
Relationships between the length of uterine horn and number of fetuses and prenatal mortality were characterized in 320 pregnant pigs at 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 wk of gestation in a cross-sectional design. Genital tracts of all pregnant animals available on the days of collection were measured.

Reduction of the number of fetuses for women with triplet and higher order multiple pregnancies

2003
When couples are faced with the dilemma of a higher order multiple pregnancy there are three options. Termination of the entire pregnancy has generally not been acceptable to women, especially for those with a past history of infertility. Attempting to continue with all the fetuses is associated with inherent problems of preterm birth, survival and ...

Pregnancy stage and number of fetuses may influence maternal plasma leptin in ewes

Acta Veterinaria Hungarica, 2006
Maternal plasma leptin is elevated in ewes during pregnancy. The authors studied whether there was any relation between maternal plasma leptin and insulin concentrations, the number of fetuses and the circulating and faecal levels of gestagens. At the end of the breeding season in January the ovarian activity of Prolific Merino ewes was induced ...
