Predicting gestational age using neonatal metabolic markers
BACKGROUND Accurate gestational age estimation is extremely important for clinical care decisions of the newborn as well as for perinatal health research. Although prenatal ultrasound dating is one of the most accurate methods for estimating gestational age, it is not feasible in all settings. Identifying novel and accurate methods for gestational age estimation at birth is important, particula...
متن کاملEstimation of Individual Neonatal Survival Using Birthweight and Gestational Age: A Way to Improve Neonatal Care
The study was conducted to determine the combined effect of birthweight and gestational age at birth on neonatal mortality using individually-identified livebirths. Logistic regression was used for studying the interactive effect of birthweight and gestational age on the individual probability of neonatal death. All livebirths from Chile in 2000 were included in a linked file. Odds ratio models...
متن کاملPredicting Gestational Diabetes Using an Intelligent Neural Network Algorithm
Introduction: Due to the large amount of data on people with diabetes, it is very difficult to extract the predictors of diabetes. Data mining science has achieved this important goal with the help of its effective methods with the aim of discovering the prediction of diseases and has helped physicians and medical staff in predicting and diagnosing diseases. Methods: The present research is...
متن کاملMetabolic and Genetic Markers of Biological Age
Biological age is a concept that takes into account the heterogeneity of the aging process in different individuals that results in differences in survival and variations in relative health. Any measure of biological age must be better than chronological age at predicting mortality. Several quantitative measures of biological age have been developed. Among them are frailty indices, one of which...
متن کاملEffect of sex and gestational age on neonatal body composition.
To determine the effects of length of gestation and sex on infant body composition, air displacement plethysmography was performed in forty-six full-term neonates at 3 d of life and during the week prior to hospital discharge in 180 preterm neonates. Fat mass, as a percentage of body weight, was higher in preterm than in term infants (13.4 (SD 4.2) v. 10.1 (sd 3.7) %, respectively; P= 0.001). T...
