Metabolic Adaptations to Six-month Caloric Restriction

Antipsychotics during pregnancy: relation to fetal and maternal metabolic effects.

CONTEXT Knowledge about the effects of exposure to the newer antipsychotics during pregnancy is limited. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of maternal use of antipsychotics during pregnancy on gestational diabetes and fetal growth.

Maternal metabolic adaptations to pregnancy among young women in Cebu, Philippines.

OBJECTIVES Evidence that fetal development has long-term impacts on health has increased interest in maternal-fetal nutrient exchange. Although maternal metabolism is known to change during gestation to accommodate fetal nutrient demands, little is known about these modifications outside of a Western, clinical context. This study characterizes maternal metabolic adaptations to pregnancy, and th...

Prevalence of unplanned pregnancy and factors related to maternal-fetal attachment in Zanjan, 2017

Background: Despite the progress of family planning programs, a significant proportion of pregnancies are still unplanned which threatens the different dimensions of community health. Unplanned pregnancy affects parent's-child association. Maternal-fetal attachment provides a model for the child's mental-social function at present and in the future. Objectives: This study was conducted to dete...
