Background In recent years, concerns have been raised about human reproductive disorders. Caffeine consumption is increasing by the world’s population and there is a relationship between caffeine intake and adverse reproductive outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of caffeine on implantation sites, number of live births, birth weight, crown-rump length (CRL) and abnormali...

The goal of this study was to present a procedure that would enable mathematical analysis of the increase of linear sizes of human anatomical structures, estimate mathematical model parameters and evaluate their adequacy. Section material consisted of 67 foetuses-rectus abdominis muscle and 75 foetuses- biceps femoris muscle. The following methods were incorporated to the study: preparation and...

reproduction in domestic animals, as a major source of food and other products for human, has greatimportance and study of related subjects including sex differentiation and gonadogenesis during fetal life can solve many questions on normal development and various disorders of urogenital system. since studies on sex differentiation in goat fetus are scarce, this study was performed. twenty-five...

OBJECTIVE Evidence for the role of first-trimester ultrasound in predicting outcome in twin pregnancies is conflicting. The aim of this study was to determine the association between crown-rump length (CRL) discordance and adverse perinatal outcome in twin pregnancies. METHODS This was a retrospective study of all twin pregnancies of known chorionicity from a large regional cohort over a 10-y...

OBJECTIVE To examine the association between absence of the nasal bone at the 11-14-week ultrasound scan and chromosomal defects. METHODS Ultrasound examination was carried out in 3829 fetuses at 11-14 weeks' gestation immediately before fetal karyotyping. At the scan the fetal crown-rump length (CRL) and nuchal translucency (NT) thickness were measured and the fetal profile was examined for ...

there are morphological and reproductive physiological differences between swamp buffalo (bubaluscarabanensis) and river buffalo (bubalus bubalis). the development of fetus weight and fetus biometry wasreported in river buffalo and other animals but not in swamp buffalo. the aim of this study was to describethe inherent variability in fetus related measurements during swamp buffalo pregnancy. t...

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether miscarried embryo/fetal crown rump length (CRL) measurement may yield a practical application for predicting a conclusive result at the cytogenetic analysis of miscarriage tissue. Our study might help in improving the cytogenetic method, the results of which may be affected by maternal cell contamination (MCC). In particular, we aimed at establishing whether the...

Objective Fetal nuchal translucency (NT) thickness increases with crown–rump length (CRL). In screening for chromosomal defects patient-specific risks are derived by multiplying the a priori maternal age-related risk by a likelihood ratio, determined from the deviation of the measured NT from the expected median. To quantify this deviation the measured NT is either subtracted (delta NT) or divi...

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 ...
