Postnatal nutritional restriction affects growth and immune function of piglets with intra-uterine growth restriction.
Postnatal rapid growth by excess intake of nutrients has been associated with an increased susceptibility to diseases in neonates with intra-uterine growth restricted (IUGR). The aim of the present study was to determine whether postnatal nutritional restriction could improve intestinal development and immune function of neonates with IUGR using piglets as model. A total of twelve pairs of norm...
متن کاملManagement of infants with intra-uterine growth restriction.
Intra-uterine growth restriction (IUGR) contributes to almost two-thirds of LBW infants born in India. Poor nutritional status and frequent pregnancies are common pre-disposing conditions in addition to obstetric and medical problems during pregnancy.

متن کاملIntrauterine Growth Restriction: Antenatal and Postnatal Aspects
Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), a condition that occurs due to various reasons, is an important cause of fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. It has been defined as a rate of fetal growth that is less than normal in light of the growth potential of that specific infant. Usually, IUGR and small for gestational age (SGA) are used interchangeably in literature, even though there exi...
متن کاملIntra-uterine Growth Restriction Downregulates the Hepatic Toll Like Receptor-4 Expression and Function
Maternal starvation is a significant cause of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) in the world and increases the risk of infection in the neonate. We examined the effect of maternal starvation on Toll like receptor (TLR)4 expression in hepatic, splenic and intestinal tissues obtained from the adult IUGR offspring of prenatal calorie restricted rats. The hepatic TLR4 protein concentration was...
