Utero-placental blood flow in hypertensive pregnancy and the effect of nifedipine administration
… rise in the pulse rate was seen. The utero-placental blood flow index, which is a measure of utero-placental blood flow, was not significantly reduced following the administration of Nifedipine or a placebo. The utero-placental blood flow index was found to be a consistent measure of …

Investigations of cellular immune mechanisms to malaria during pregnancy in a malaria holoendemic region of Western Kenya
… malaria infections with potential for developing placental malaria. The immunological basis of protection and pathogenesis are incompletely understood. This thesis investigates both processes. Research on maternal placental immune responses necessitates the collection of reliable placental …

The Effect of Exercise on Blood Flow in Pregnant Guinea Pigs
… was to investigate fetal weight gain and measure blood flow in pregnant guinea pigs who were exercised 45 minutes per day; and thus answer the hypothesis that prolonged maternal exercise will cause decreased weight gain and decreased placental blood flow during pregnancy.</p> <p>Twenty pregnant …

The effect of introducing Basic Antenatal Care Plus and Umbiflow on antenatal care and perinatal mortality
… to detect HDP are simple, namely measuring the blood pressure, but if not performed at the right time hypertension might not be detected and a stillbirth may result. Unexplained stillbirths are thought to be due to unrecognised placental insufficiency. No effective strategies to detect placental …

Recapitulation of Human Placental Insufficiency in a Novel Mouse Model :New Paradigm in Translational Research
Objective: To develop a mouse model of placental insufficiency (PI) that recapitulates important characteristics of the human PI. We tested the effects of selective reduction of placental blood flow by mesenteric uterine artery branch ligation (MUAL) reliably resulting in fetal growth restriction …

Effects of mid-gestational L-citrulline supplementation to twin-bearing ewes on umbilical blood flow, placental development, and lamb production traits
… Supplementing amino acids that influence blood flow within the reproductive tract is one potential way to provide fetuses with added nutrients during gestation, and this supplementation strategy may be especially useful when the maternal diet is compromised. L-citrulline was chosen for …

Timing of cord clamping (TOCC): An observational study of cord clamping practice in a New Zealand maternity hospital
… after birth, a significant proportion of the blood from the placenta flows into the newborn, contributing to approximately one-quarter of total potential blood volume. The routine intervention of immediate cord clamping was introduced as part of active management of the third stage of labour …

Prevalence and impact of Malaria infection on pregnancy and prenatal outcomes in the Blue Nile state of Sudan
… space (IVS) of placenta, resulting in placental malaria which can subsequently lead to congenital malaria. Congenital malaria (CM) is defined as the presence of malaria parasites in the peripheral blood of new born infants, in the first week of life. There is quite a lot of controversy …

Maternal Vascular Compliance of Placentas in Rabbits
… and exchange functions of the placenta and blood flow in the uterus and placenta, but only recently has compliance begun to have been studied. Recognizing the important part it plays in affecting circulation, compliance has been studied in the fetal circulation of the placenta, the fetal …

Untersuchungen zur Möglichkeit der Herstellung von Erythrozytenkonzentrat und Gefrierplasma aus Plazentarestblut
Besonders Frühgeborene benötigen häufig Transfusionen von Blutkomponenten (v.a. EK) in ersten Lebenswochen. Plazenta enthält eine große Menge kindlichen Blutes. Mangels entsprechender Studien führten wir im Zeitraum von Februar bis Oktober 1998 eine Studie aus dem Plazentarestblut von 35 Reif– und …
