Intrauterine effects of maternal weight dynamics
Maternal obesity, and weight gain during or after pregnancy, are associated with adverse perinatal outcomes, as well as long-term cardiometabolic disease in the mother and offspring. Previous studies have demonstrated an association between maternal obesity and cardiovascular maladaptation to …

Role of PABP4 in intrauterine growth restriction
In mammals, two members of the poly(A)-binding protein (PABP) family of RNAbinding proteins, PABP1 and PABP4, are widely expressed in a range of adult tissues. PABP1, the prototypical family member, has been intensively characterised as central regulator of both global and mRNA-specific translation …

Assessment of Biomarkers of Intrauterine Inflammation Induced Preterm Labor
… factors. Amongst this cluster of problems, intrauterine infection and inflammation pathway is widely studied as a source of preterm labor (Johnson et al., 2014; Viscardi et al., 2004; Tency, 2014). Intrauterine infection can be described as the presence of microorganisms in the amniotic …

Preeclampsia: The Roles of Acute Inflammation and Intrauterine Stress
… prematurity—abnormal lung and renal development, intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR), and, possibly, fetal demise. Interestingly, it has been shown that exposure to PE in utero can lead to many developmental problems during the progeny’s life span. While intensive research has been dedicated to …

Muscle Growth and Development in Intrauterine Growth Restricted Pigs
Intrauterine growth restriction causes impaired growth and development of mammalian fetus, and leads to long-term negative effect on postnatal growth. Among domestic animals, pigs exhibit the most severe naturally occurring IUGR and reduced postnatal muscle growth. The objectives of this research …

Porcine intrauterine steroidogenesis: luteal vs. intrauterine progesterone as a mediator of prenatal survival, conceptus development and in vitro steroid production by the placenta and endometrium
… of four experiments that examine the role of intrauterine steroidogenesis in the pregnant gilt. In chapter 3, ovariectomy (OVX) and medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) treatment at two stages of gestation (d19-29 or d59-69) resulted in maintained pregnancy, normal fetal survival rates, normal …

Improved Calculation and Display for Dose Distributions Associated With Intrauterine Radiotherapy.
… distribution calculations associated with an intrauterine applicator. The program reconstructs the exact source positions from two orthogonal x-ray projections. The dosages delivered to reference points A and B are calculated. In addition, isodose curves are constructed on selected planes from …

Effects of intrauterine dynamics on steroidogenesis and conceptus development in the porcine
Intrauterine crowding and placental insufficiency are main reasons for prenatal losses in swine. Two studies were conducted to examine: 1) conceptus development and in vitro steroidogenic capability of three regions of the placenta (middle, inner, polar) at d 30, 50, 70, and 90 of gestation; and 2) …

Evaluating Provider Knowledge Towards Pain Management During Intrauterine Device Insertion in Nulliparous Women
… (LARCs) are birth control methods consisting of intrauterine devices (IUDs) and the birth control implants that are the most effective forms of reversible contraceptives. LARCs are 20 times more effective than other birth control methods; yet only 5.6% of women are choosing LARCs. Despite …

Effects of dietary intervention on inflammation and intrauterine growth restriction in neonatal piglets
Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), a form of fetal malnutrition that leads to small for gestational age (SGA) infants, is a condition that affects 7.5 million children born worldwide. Infants affected by IUGR are more prone to lengthy hospital stays, repeated infections, and neurodevelopmental …

Intrauterine position in pigs: effects on conceptus development and fetal fluids steroid content
… of this study was to investigate the effect of intrauterine position and its possibly resultant steroid differential on conceptus growth and steroid content in allantoic and amniotic fluid of pigs. six conceptus variables (placental weight, placental length, fetal weight, fetal length, allantoic …

IN VIVO DETECTION OF DOPAMINERGIC DYSFUNCTION IN A RAT MODEL OF MODERATE INTRAUTERINE ASPHYXIA
… two-fold: (1) To establish a model of moderate intrauterine asphyxia in the full term rat that closely matches the clinical presentation of mild to moderate HIE, and (2) To identify a putative neonatal biomarker of asphyxia-mediated changes in the midbrain dopamine system and corresponding …

The effects of sensory information on anxiety associated with insertion of an intrauterine device
… information prior to the insertion of an intrauterine device. Spielberger's (1966) state-trait anxiety theory was used as the theoretical framework for the study. The study was conducted in four family planning clinics located throughout a large metropolitan city in the southwest. The data …

Duration of Antibiotic Residues in Milk from Cows Treated via Intrauterine and Intramammary Infusion
<p>Antibiotics have been employed by farmers and veterinarians for treatment of infectious cattle diseases for over 3 decades. The most common of these diseases in dairy cows is mastitis. Mastitis is defined by the National Mastitis Council (NMC) (49) as an inflammation of the mammary gland. It is …

Effects of 2ʹ-fucosyllactose on brain and cognitive development of intrauterine growth restricted piglets
Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) leads to small for gestational age (SGA) neonates, increasing risk of brain and cognitive impairments that persist into adulthood. Human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) have been postulated to exert positive effects on brain development. HMOs are the third most …

Development in children born very preterm after intrauterine growth restriction with abnormal fetal blood flow
Delivery of fetuses with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) with abnormal umbilical artery blood flow in the second trimester represents a clinical dilemma. So far, no evidence based management protocols are available adressing when to deliver these fetuses. The high risk of hypoxia and fetal …
