Exploring fetal growth patterns in the second trimester: insights from ultrasound measurements among the Minangkabau Ethnic Group in Indonesia.
BMC Pregnancy Childbirth
January 2025
Obstetrics and Gynecology Departement, Medical Faculty of Andalas University, Padang, West Sumatera, Indonesia.
Background: Understanding fetal growth is essential for predicting perinatal outcomes and long-term health implications. This study explores the correlation between ultrasound parameters and gestational age in the Minangkabau ethnic group, focusing on the biometric variables biparietal diameter (BPD), head circumference (HC), abdominal circumference (AC), femur length (FL), and humerus length (HL) during the second trimester.
Methods: Conducted from December 2020 to December 2021, the research employed a cross-sectional design at the Fetomaternal clinic of Hospital M.
Echo-Biometry Assessment of a Quadruple Pregnancy in a Captive Capybara.

Department of Surgery, School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, University of São Paulo, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
A 5-year-old female capybara, conditioned ex situ before mating, was monitored by ultrasound to establish prenatal growth and assess fetal echo-biometric variables. The records were taken twice weekly until delivery (i.e.

Background: Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is a severe condition in which the fetus fails to reach its genetically predetermined growth potential, impairing prenatal development and predisposing individuals to postnatal consequences that may persist into adulthood. Although fetal mechanisms such as the brain-sparing effect have been proposed to protect the brain against IUGR-related deficits, the extent of this protection remains unclear.
Objective: To conduct a systematic review that demonstrates prenatal morphofunctional abnormalities in the brain of individuals with IUGR.
Prenatal Diagnosis of Nonsyndromic Craniosynostosis: A Scoping Review.
Cleft Palate Craniofac J
January 2025
Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.
Craniosynostosis is rarely diagnosed in utero. Prenatal diagnosis has the potential to improve patient outcomes and streamline care, however, and is becoming more feasible as technology improves. The objective of this study is to examine existing literature on prenatal diagnosis of nonsyndromic craniosynostosis.

Studies in humans and rodents show exercise in pregnancy can modulate maternal blood pressure, vascular volume, and placental efficiency, but whether exercise affects early uteroplacental vascular adaptations is unknown. To investigate this, CBA/J female mice mated with BALB/c males to generate healthy uncomplicated pregnancies (BALB/c-mated) or mated with DBA/2J males to generate abortion-prone pregnancies (DBA/2J-mated), were subjected to treadmill exercise (5 days/week, 10 m/min, 30 min/day for 6 weeks before and throughout pregnancy), or remained sedentary. In uncomplicated pregnancies, exercise caused symmetric fetal growth restriction in fetuses evidenced by reductions in fetal weight, crown-to-rump length, abdominal girth and biparietal diameter.
