for the first time, a spectrum of morphological abnormalities have been produced in developingmouse embryos (n=50), by injecting (ip) 75 and 100 mg/kg of maternal body weight of a new quinazolinonederivative, 4(3h)quinazolinone-2-propyl-2-phenylethyl(qppe), on days 9, 10 and 11 of gestation.measurements of the length of the crown-rump (cr), weight of body of the embryos and placenta on day 17sh...

OBJECTIVE To determine the value of measuring fetal ear length at 11-14 weeks of gestation in screening for chromosomal defects. METHODS The fetal ear length was measured in 450 fetuses immediately before chorionic villus sampling for karyotyping at 11-14 weeks of gestation. RESULTS The median gestational age was 12 (range, 11-14) weeks. The fetal ear was successfully examined in all cases....

Statistical tables including 50 and 95 percentile ranges are presented of the combined kidney weights compared with body weight, crown-rump length, and gestation age of foetuses and newborn children, and also a table of kidney weights related to post-natal age. The importance of relating kidney weight to more than one general body criterion in the perinatal period is illustrated.

BACKGROUND Methamphetamine (MA) is one of most common illicit drugs which were reported that nearly half of MA consumers are women. MA can cross through placenta and affects pregnancy and fetus development. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to evaluate effects of injected MA on crown-rump length, head and placental circumference, body weight, histological changes and apoptosis in fetus. MATERIALS AND M...

In the recent years, sonographic images of fetal nose have gained popularity in detecting trisomy 21 and other aneuploidies. Reference values for nasal bone length have been reported in different countries and ethnic populations. However, there was no reference range for the fetal nasal bone length (NBL) in the Filipino population. This prospective, cross-sectional study was conducted to establ...

Objective: The aim of the present study was to determine the correlation between fetal liver length (FLL) at the 11+0–13+6 week of pregnancy and crown-rump length (CRL). Methods: Pregnant women (n=63) referring to the Başkent University Konya Hospital Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic between January and March 2014 for first trimester screening were included in the study. Patients were excluded ...
