Case 1 (IV.1) (see Fig. 1). This girl was born on 21 September 1961. Her mother was 22 and her father 24 years old at the time of birth. The only known unusual event during pregnancy was a large umbilical hernia and an abdominal x-ray was taken at about 30 weeks of gestation. Labour was induced by amniotomy and oxygen was given during labour because of a tetanic contraction. Delivery was uneven...

The STAM protein plays an important role in the cytokine-related JAK/STAT pathway. We selected the STAM2 gene as a candidate gene that could be linked to growth performance in analysis of a Chinese cattle breed (Wuchuan Black cattle). We examined genetic variants in the promoter region of the STAM2 gene and their associations with eight growth traits in 159 individuals. Seven SNPs, which includ...

MANALU, W. 1999. The effect of superovulation prior to mating on fetal growth in Iambs from Javanese thin-tail ewes. Jurnal Ilmu Ternak dan Veteriner 4 (4): 243-250. Twenty-nine fetuses (11 fetuses from 9 non-superovulated ewes and 18 fetuses from 8 superovulated ewes) were used to study the effect of superovulation of ewes prior to mating on fetal weight, fetal length, the length of the body a...

OBJECTIVE To describe secular trends on physical growth of children in China during the year of 1985-2005 and to analyze the urban-suburban-rural difference and its change. METHODS The measurements of height, weight and chest circumference obtained from two serial national cross-sectional surveys for children aged 0 to 7 years in China were used to analyze the secular trends, and the growth d...

Abstract We investigated the associations of one‐carbon metabolism (OCM)‐related metabolites, including choline, betaine, dimethylglycine (DMG), and methionine with fetal growth twins. This hospital‐based cohort study included dichorionic twin gestations. Blood samples were collected at a median 14.7 weeks gestation. plasma metabolite levels measured using high‐performance liquid chromatography...
