Background: This study aimed to assess the fetomaternal outcome of preterm prelabour rupture membranes (PPROM) and identify risk factors associated with this condition. Methods: The was conducted in Obstetrics Gynecology department Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed Medical College Hospital, Barpeta, Assam, used a hospital-based prospective observational design. duration 12 months from September 2021 August ...

The May-Hegglin Anomaly (MHA) is a rare autosomal dominant giant platelet disorder characterized by abnormally large platelets with defective leucocytes and thrombocytopenia varying degrees of bleeding manifestation. Here we report successful pregnancy outcome in primigravida MHA. (Preterm Pre-labour Rupture Membranes) PPROM mother, abnormalities the extremities due to ABS discussed.

The role of surfactant as an etiological factor of RDS is well known. Besides the surface activity, several components of the surfactant are involved in the innate immunity. The fact that surfactant is secreted into the amniotic fluid makes it as an interesting candidate that influences the premature birth, particularly in pregnancies complicated by chorioamnionitis. Surfactant associated colle...

OBJECTIVE The main aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the maternal white blood cell (WBC) count at the time of hospital admission in pregnancies complicated by preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM) and the presence of microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity (MIAC) and/or intra-amniotic inflammation (IAI). The second aim was to test WBC diagnostic indices with ...

OBJECTIVE Oxidative stress is a postulated etiology of spontaneous preterm birth (PTB) and preterm prelabor rupture of the membranes (pPROM); however, the precise mechanistic role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in these complications is unclear. The objective of this study is to examine impact of a water soluble cigarette smoke extract (wsCSE), a predicted cause of pregnancy complications, on...

OBJECTIVE Spontaneous preterm birth (PTB) and preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (pPROM) are major pregnancy complications often associated with a fetal inflammatory response. Biomolecular markers of this fetal inflammatory response to both infectious and non-infectious risk factors and their contribution to PTB and pPROM mechanism are still unclear. This study examined fetal membrane produc...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between gestational complications and high levels of maternal serum alfa-fetoprotein (MSAFP) and/or beta human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and to determine whether these markers are effective predictors of poor pregnancy outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, we enrolled a total of 679 women at 15-20 gestational weeks with MSAFP and hCG below...

OBJECTIVE Our aim was to compare the outcomes of expectant management of pregnancy or immediate delivery in patients with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) between 24+0 and 32+0 weeks of pregnancy. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study conducted at a tertiary medical center. Patients who were diagnosed as having PPROM between 24+0 and 32+0 weeks of gestation ...

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between fetal thymus diameter and perinatal outcomes in preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) cases to compare three-dimensional (3D) volume same cases. Material Methods: This was a prospective study from March 2019 through 2020. Women diagnosed with PPROM 24 33+6 weeks gestation were included. Pregnancies divided into 2 groups as small normal ac...
