teratomas are rare germline tumors that originate from one or more embryonic germ cell layers. teratoma of the kidney is extremely rare, and less than 30 cases of primary intrarenal teratomas have been published to date. we report the main radiologic features of an unusual case of mature cystic teratoma arising from the left kidney in a two-year-old boy. a left-sided abdominal mass was detected...

Introduction. Low birth weight is an important indicator of the health of babies. A low birth weight is a leading health problem and a major reason for death in newborns. This study targeted to assess the relationship between maternal and infant factors and low birth weight in Iran through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Materials and Methods. This paper was a systematic review and meta-...

OBJECTIVE To study the influence of maternal preeclampsia on the occurrence of retinopathy of prematurity. STUDY DESIGN A prospective cohort study of 324 preterm neonates with birth weight ≤ 1500 g and gestational age ≤ 32 weeks. Multiple maternal and perinatal factors were analyzed for association and confounding by multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Mean birth weight was 1128 ...

Objective The present work aimed to evaluate the differences between fathers' and mothers' prenatal parental representations, pre- postnatal perceptions of couple adjustment, whether quality representations is associated with perception adjustment infant temperament at 3 months. Background Within a multifactorial, transactional model, several studies indicated that are relevant infant–parent re...

Maltose binding protein, like most periplasmic proteins, is resistant to a variety of proteinases. Treatment of pre-maltose binding protein with trypsin, chymotrypsin, or proteinase K removes an amino-terminal domain of the same approximate size as the leader sequence without degrading the mature portion of the protein. In addition, pre-maltose binding protein is as active as mature in binding ...

OBJECTIVE The relationship between gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, and the risk of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) remains unclear. Thus, we used a large cohort database to study the influence of maternal gestational hypertension and preeclampsia on the occurrence of ROP in preterm infants. METHODS We used data from a previous retrospective cohort study that includes 25,473 eligible ...

The relationship between enzyme architecture and substrate specificity among archaeal pre-tRNA splicing endonucleases has been investigated more deeply, by using biochemical assays and model building. The enzyme from Archeoglobus fulgidus (AF) is particularly interesting: it cleaves the bulge-helix-bulge target without requiring the mature tRNA domain, but, when the target is a bulge-helix-loop...

Present research with the aim of the studying the efficacy of training of mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) in the reduction of occupying mothers in proportion to mother-infant has carried out. The way of the present search is a study quasi-experimental. The method of its pre-test and post-test with control and experimental groups. In this research, nurse mothers of Rasht with the tool ...

Recent data suggests that abnormal maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) or gestational weight gain (GWG) is associated with unfavorable delivery outcomes. However, limited clinical evidence is available to support this correlation in China. Participating 510 mother-infant pairs were recruited from the Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital, China, between January 1st and 30th 2016...
