AI Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine normal reference values for fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA PSV) between 20 to 37 weeks of gestation at Srinagarind Hospital.
- A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using gray scale ultrasonography and Doppler imaging on normal fetuses at various gestational ages.
- The findings indicated an increase in MCA PSV from 24.34 cm/sec at 20 weeks to 59.04 cm/sec at 37 weeks, leading to the creation of a normogram for fetal MCA PSV for this gestational period.
Article Abstract
Objective: To establish normal references of fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA PSV) at 20 to 37 weeks of gestation at Srinagarind Hospital.
Material And Method: A descriptive cross-sectional study was performed Normal fetuses at 20 to 37 weeks of gestation were studied by gray scale ultrasonography initially and then Doppler of MCA PSV.
Results: At least 18 pregnant women of each gestational age with an uncomplicated singleton were enrolled The MCA PSV was increased as gestational age advanced from 24.34 cm/sec (SD 3.91) at 20 weeks to 59.04 cm/sec (SD 10.80) at 37 weeks.
Conclusion: A normogram of fetal MCA PSV at 20 to 37 weeks of gestation at Srinagarind hospital was generated.

No study has examined the association between dietary insulin load (DIL) and insulin index (DII) with developing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) during pregnancy. This study aimed to investigate the association between DIL and DII and risk of GDM in a group of pregnant women in Iran. In this prospective cohort study, 812 pregnant in their first trimester were recruited and followed.

Objective: Cesarean sections (CS) are among the most performed surgical procedures in the world. Small variations in surgical techniques could have a significant impact on a global scale, for example, in postoperative complications. In the present study we aimed to observe and audit every single step used during first time CS.

Purpose: Human brain development during gestation is complex, as both structure and function are rapidly forming. Structural imaging methods using MRI are well developed to explore these changes, but functional imaging tools are lacking. Low-field MRI is a promising modality to bridge this gap.

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is an exceptionally rare complication during pregnancy and even rarer when it coincides with severe preeclampsia in the same index pregnancy. We report the case of a 36-year-old female who presented with confusion at 38 weeks of gestation. Although her signs and symptoms strongly suggested severe preeclampsia, she was expected to make a full recovery after an emergency C-section.
