Maternal Concentrations of Perfluoroalkyl Substances and Fetal Markers of Metabolic Function and Birth Weight
Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are ubiquitous, persistent chemicals that have been widely used in the production of common household and consumer goods for their nonflammable, lipophobic, and hydrophobic properties. Inverse associations between maternal or umbilical cord blood concentrations of perfluorooctanoic acid and perfluorooctanesulfonate and birth weight have been identified. This lit...
متن کاملMaternal and fetal thyroid function.
Conception is followed by a series of hormonal and metabolic changes that involve most maternal endocrine systems. With regard to thyroid metabolism, these include an increase in serum thyroxine-binding globulin and thyroid hormone concentrations, increased renal clearance of iodine, and increased production and turnover of thyroxine (T). Fetal and maternal thyroid physiology differ, but the sy...
متن کاملMetal Ion Levels in Maternal and Placental Blood Following Metal-on-Metal Arthroplasty Running Title: Maternal and Placental Metal Ion Levels
Background: There has been a resurgence in the interest and use of metal-on-metal (MOM) bearing surfaces in hip arthroplasty. However, concerns remain regarding elevated metal levels in blood and urine and possible effect on the fetus of a pregnant female with a MOM bearing surface. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare metal concentrations in maternal and fetal serum in subjects wit...
متن کاملMaternal calcium metabolic stress and fetal growth.
BACKGROUND Suboptimal maternal calcium intake and vitamin D status may or may not adversely influence fetal growth. OBJECTIVE It was hypothesized that maternal calcium metabolic stress in early pregnancy, rather than suboptimal calcium intake or insufficient vitamin D, influences the risk of small-for-gestational-age (SGA) births and other aspects of fetal growth. Stress to calcium metabolism...
متن کاملMaternal and fetal influences on blood pressure.
To study maternal and fetal influences on blood pressure in childhood 405 children aged 4 years who were born and still resident in the Salisbury health district were visited at home for blood pressure and growth measurements. Information on the pregnancy, delivery, and baby was abstracted from the routine obstetric notes. Similar to recent findings in adults, the child's systolic pressure was ...
