Intermittent Fetal Heart Monitoring Through Moyo Doppler Improves Nonreassuring Fetal Heart Rate Detection in Hospital of Ethiopia: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

J Perinat Neonatal Nurs

January 2025

Author Affiliations: Departments of Midwifery (Mr Fikadu), Internal Medicine (Dr Shibru), and Obstetrics and Gynecology (Drs Koira, Chufamo, and Mulugeta), and School of Public Health (Messrs Kote and Hailemariam and Dr Ayele), College of Medicine and Health Sciences, Arba Minch University, Southern Region, Arba Minch, Ethiopia; Ethiopia Midwives Association, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia (Messrs Belgu and Mazengia); and Institute of Public Health, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Gondar, Amhara Region, Gondar, Ethiopia (Dr Ayele).

Purpose: This study was aimed to assess the effect of intermittent fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring using Moyo Doppler compared with fetoscope in hospitals of Ethiopia, 2023.

Background: To facilitate more prompt identification of a hypoxic fetus, Laerdal Global Health has recently introduced the Moyo FHR monitor. Nevertheless, there exists limited knowledge regarding its efficacy derived from multicenter contextual trials conducted in resource-constrained environments, specifically in Ethiopia.

Introduction: Chronic fetal hypoxia is commonly associated with fetal growth restriction and can predispose to respiratory disease at birth and in later life. Antenatal antioxidant treatment has been investigated to overcome the effects of oxidative stress to improve respiratory outcomes. We aimed to determine if the effects of chronic fetal hypoxia and antenatal antioxidant administration persist in the lung in early adulthood.

Novel Insights In presence of cardiotocographic features suspected for hypoxic insult, intrapartum ultrasound in the hands of experienced operators can demonstrate cerebral edema as an indirect sign of fetal hypoxia affecting the fetal CNS and exclude non-hypoxic conditions potentially leading to abnormalities of the fetal heart rate. Introduction Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is a syndrome involving the fetal central nervous system as the result of a perinatal hypoxic-ischemic injury. To date, transfontanellar ultrasound represents the first line exam in neonates with clinical suspicion of HIE as it allows to show features indicating acute hypoxic injury and exclude potential non-hypoxic determinants of HIE, however there is no report concerning the sonographic assessment of the brain during labor.

The mechanisms that drive placental dysfunction in pregnancies complicated by hypoxia and fetal growth restriction remain poorly understood. Changes to mitochondrial respiration contribute to cellular dysfunction in conditions of hypoxia and have been implicated in the pathoaetiology of pregnancy complications, such as pre-eclampsia. We used bespoke isobaric hypoxic chambers and a combination of functional, molecular and imaging techniques to study cellular metabolism and mitochondrial dynamics in sheep undergoing hypoxic pregnancy.

TFII-I/GTF2I regulates globin gene expression and stress response in erythroid cells.

J Biol Chem

January 2025

Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, College of Medicine, Center for Epigenetics, Genetics Institute, UF Health Cancer Center, Powell-Gene Therapy Center, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida 32610. Electronic address:

Transcription factor TFII-I/GTF2I is ubiquitously expressed and has been shown to play a role in the differentiation of hematopoietic cells and in the response to various cellular stressors. We previously demonstrated that TFII-I acts as a repressor of adult β-globin gene transcription and positively regulates expression of stress response proteins, including ATF3. Here we analyzed the function of TFII-I in TF-1 cells during erythroid differentiation and in response to cellular stress, including unfolded protein response, hypoxia, and oxidative stress.
