Objective: To evaluate the obstetric and perinatal outcomes of fetuses with early (EO) late-onset (LO) fetal growth restriction (FGR), to explore prognostic factors on survival adverse outcome. Materials Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 105 EO 55 LO-FGR singleton pregnancies. Umbilical artery (UA), middle cerebral (MCA) ductus venosus (DV) Doppler parameters cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) wer...

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) can emerge as a complication of placental dysfunction and increases the risk for neurodevelopmental delay. Marked elevations of umbilical artery (UA) Doppler resistance that set the stage for cardiovascular and biophysical deterioration with subsequent preterm birth characterize early-onset FGR. Minimal, or absent UA Doppler abnormalities and isolated cerebral Dop...

introduction: doppler ultrasonography (dus) is the most preferable method for screening of carotid artery disease in patients undergoing cabg. the purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency of carotid artery disease and determine the relation between known risk factors of atherosclerosis and rate of carotid artery narrowing in order to identify high-risk groups among patients schedu...

AIMS To investigate the relationship between fetal renal artery Doppler results and pregnancy outcomes in patients with idiopathic abnormal amniotic fluid indices. MATERIAL AND METHOD A total of 110 patients without signs of fetal distress were included in the study: 31 idiopathic oligohydramnios and 29 idiopathic polyhydramnios pregnancies (study group) and 50 normal pregnancies (controls). ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Intrauterine growth restriction is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Its pathogenesis is still a matter of debate. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between intrauterine growth restriction (diagnosed in utero by serial ultrasound examinations and characterized by abnormal umbilical arterial Doppler velocimetry) and thrombophilic polymor...
