Bacterial Development: Evidence for Very Short Umbilical Cords
Higher eukaryotes have channels, such as gap junctions and plasmodesmata, that allow intercellular communication. Recent studies on endospore formation in Bacillus subtilis suggest that an analogous structure may exist in prokaryotes.
متن کاملCoiling characteristics of umbilical cords in breech vs. vertex presentation.
OBJECTIVE To compare selected umbilical cord parameters, especially cord coiling, between breech and vertex presentations. METHODS We prospectively collected umbilical cords from uncomplicated breech and vertex obtained during elective term cesarean deliveries. We compared various cord parameters between the two groups as well as data regarding obstetric history and pregnancy outcome. RESUL...
متن کاملNecessity to Measure PCBs and Organochlorine Pesticide Concentrations in Human Umbilical Cords for Fetal Exposure Assessment
Three types of tissue samples--umbilical cord (UC), umbilical cord serum (CS), and maternal serum (MS)--have often been used to assess fetal exposure to chemicals. In order to know the relationship of contamination between mothers and fetuses, we measured persistent chemicals in comparable sets of the three tissue samples. Also, we analyzed the association between the chemicals in maternal and ...
متن کاملTesting umbilical cords for funisitis due to Treponema pallidum infection, Bolivia.
To establish the frequency of necrotizing funisitis in congenital syphilis, we conducted a prospective descriptive study of maternal syphilis in Bolivia by testing 1,559 women at delivery with rapid plasma reagin (RPR). We examined umbilical cords of 66 infants whose mothers had positive RPR and fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption tests. Histologic abnormalities were detected in 28 (42%)...
متن کاملGenomic Evidence for Bacterial Determinants Influencing Obesity Development
Obesity is a major global public health problem requiring multifaceted interventional approaches including dietary interventions with probiotic bacteria. High-throughput genome sequencing of microbial communities in the mammalian gastrointestinal system continues to present diverse protein function information to understand the bacterial determinants that influence obesity development. The goal...
