Abnormal fetal movements, micrognathia and pulmonary hypoplasia: a case report. Abnormal fetal movements
BACKGROUND Micrognathia is a facial malformation characterized by mandibular hypoplasia and a small, receding chin that fails to maintain the tongue in a forward position. We previously reported a system of prenatal screening that we developed to identify fetuses with compromised central nervous system function by observing fetal behavior. In this paper we report the case of a preterm infant wi...
متن کاملAccuracy of absence of fetal breathing movements in predicting preterm birth: a systematic review.

METHODS Data sources included Medline, Embase, Pascal, Biosis, Cochrane Library, Medion, National Research Register, SciSearch, conference papers, and manual searching of bibliographies of known primary and...

متن کاملQuantitative fetal fibronectin predicts preterm birth in women with bulging fetal membranes.
OBJECTIVE To assess the predictive value of quantitative fetal fibronectin (fFN) concentration in cervicovaginal fluid for spontaneous preterm birth in women with bulging fetal membranes. STUDY DESIGN This was a prospective observational study from five UK tertiary centres of a cohort of women with singleton pregnancy and bulging fetal membranes presenting between 18 and 32 weeks of gestation...
متن کاملRegulation of fetal breathing.
Traditionally, the idea of transient asphyxia plus some degree of cold stimulation has been used to explain the establishment of continuous breathing at birth. This idea was nurtured by observations made in the acute fetal preparation at a time when fetal breathing was considered absent. Experimental observations made in the past two decades have challenged this traditional view. First, complet...
