The authors have made a growth cure of the bi-parietal diameter of the African infant using observations taken on 350 African women who were followed up and delivered in their department. Over all these curves of growth are smaller than the reference curves used in France. This study is a first contribution to the understanding of the mechanics of obstetrics in the African woman.

Objectives: The aim of this study is to establish the normal calcaneus-metatarsal angles in order to facilitate the recognition of fetal foot deformities. Therefore, a novel measurement technique was determined using ultrasound and applied to nonanomalous fetuses in the 18th to 23rd gestational weeks.
Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study included 100 low-risk, nonanomalous fetuses in the 18th to 23rd weeks of gestation.

The study conducted retrospective analysis design, aiming to explore the use of Microvascular Imaging Technique (MVFI) to assess fetal cerebral microcirculation and analyze the relationship between Microvascular Index (MVI) and fetal growth and development. 100 pregnant women who met the criteria for fetal growth restriction (FGR) provided in the Expert Consensus on Fetal Growth Restriction (2019 Edition) and underwent routine prenatal examinations at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Peking University Third Hospital from January 2021 to June 2023 were selected as the study subjects. A normal fetus with a fetal weight less than 10 % can be classified as FGR, Pregnant women with fetal umbilical artery (UA) systolic and diastolic (S/D) values ≥3 were included in the observation group, while 200 pregnant women with normal fetuses were selected as the control group during the same period.

Cortical injury on the surface of the brain in children with hypoxic ischemic injury (HII) can be difficult to demonstrate to non-radiologists and lay people using brain images alone. Three-dimensional (3D) printing is helpful to communicate the volume loss and pathology due to HII in children's brains. 3D printed models represent the brain to scale and can be held up against models of normal brains for appreciation of volume loss.

Background of the study To assess the prenatal development of the human liver between 12-36 weeks of gestational age by measuring morphometric parameters using conventional autopsy and to evaluate the morphometric parameters of the human fetus and its liver and their correlation to predict the gestation age. Materials & methods The present study was conducted in the Department of Anatomy, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rishikesh, India, on 33 normal fetuses of gestational age 12-36 weeks collected from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the same institute. which were classified into five groups: A (12-16 weeks), B (17-21 weeks), C (22-26 weeks), D (27-31 weeks), and E (32-36 weeks).
