Article Synopsis
- Maternal gestational diabetes (GDM) is linked to increased risks for small (SGA) and large (LGA) for gestational age babies, which can complicate health for both mothers and infants.
- The study analyzed data from over 23,000 pregnant women, comparing those with GDM to a control group without GDM, looking at levels of specific proteins to assess risks for SGA and LGA.
- Results showed that while lower levels of pregnancy-associated proteins were associated with higher odds of SGA, high levels weren't connected to LGA outcomes, indicating different risk factors may be at play for these conditions in GDM pregnancies.
Objectives: To evaluate different cut-off values of first trimester pregnancy associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) in screening for adverse pregnancy outcomes in a retrospective cohort study.
Methods: During the study period of 1.1.
Objective: We hypothesized that Doppler measurements of the placental and fetal central and peripheral hemodynamics would predict adverse outcomes in prolonged uncomplicated singleton pregnancies.
Method: A total of 160 participants were recruited to this study. Doppler measurements of placental and fetal hemodynamics as well as cardiotocography (CTG) were assessed prior to induction of labor at >41+ weeks.
Objective: To test the null hypothesis that early headgear (HG) treatment has no effect on the eruption pattern of the maxillary canines in the early mixed dentition.
Materials And Methods: Sixty-eight children (40 boys and 28 girls) with a Class II tendency in occlusion and moderate crowding of the dental arches were randomized into two groups. HG treatment was initiated immediately in the first group.
