Introduction The obstetric conjugate represents the shortest anteroposterior diameter of birth canal and it reflects capacity pelvic inlet to allow passage engagement fetal head. antepartum evaluation this parameter may be attempted at digital examination predict risk cephalopelvic disproportion, but accuracy clinical pelvimetry is notoriously poor. aim our study was describe sonographic measur...

The strikingly high incidence of obstructed labor due to the disproportion of fetal size and the mother's pelvic dimensions has puzzled evolutionary scientists for decades. Here we propose that these high rates are a direct consequence of the distinct characteristics of human obstetric selection. Neonatal size relative to the birth-relevant maternal dimensions is highly variable and positively ...

infection is the precipitating factor. Intramuscular penicillin, combined where indicated, with inhalation therapy should be commenced at once if chest infection is felt to be a contributory factor in cardiac breakdown. Meanwhile investigations should be started and modification of treatment may be made as indicated. The effective treatment of the lung lesion associated with the correct approac...

Nine children with congenital fibre type disproportion (CFTD) are described. Their muscle biopsies contained type 1 fibres which were smaller than the largest type 2 fibres by at least 13.5%. Attention is drawn to the variable natural history of this disorder which generally carries a good prognosis but may sometimes be associated with fatal respiratory problems. For important therapeutic, gene...

Objectives: Analysis of success variables cervical ripening with the Foley catheter in patients prior cesarean section (PCD), post-term pregnancy (PP), and a Bishop score £6. Evaluation technique’s safety. Study design: Prospective cohort trial which 120 were enrolled, from April 2014 to May 2018. PCD was codified four groups: 1) failed Induction (FI); 2) non-progressive labor (NPL) or cephalop...

This article analyses the Croatian Scientific Bibliography (CROSBI) as a social application using a number of different approaches. By analysing and visualizing the conceptual network the core of keywords is determined for each scientific field: biomedical sciences, biotechnology, social sciences, humanities, natural sciences and technical sciences. Through the interpretation of core concepts b...
