background and aim: horseshoe placenta is a variant of ring-shaped placenta. ring-shaped placenta is a rare anomaly seen in fewer than 1 in 6000 deliveries, which could be seen as horseshoe shape due to atrophy in a portion of the ring. this report refers to a possible relationship between the horseshoe shape placenta and preterm labor; although it has not been yet validated in the literature. ...

Broken cell preparations of rat and human placentas contain an inner (tyrosyl)-ring iodothyronine deiodinase enzyme with greatest activity when the substrate is 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3). This report describes the deiodination of T3 in the intact placenta and the effect of sodium iopanoate (IA) and propylthiouracil (PTU) on T3 deiodination. Under nembutal anesthesia, the placenta of 60-65-d-...

Regarding the importance of ring spinning method among spinning systems, great potentials exist for research about on the improvement of the quality and properties of ring spun yarn. This study aims to improve yarn quality by changing the shape and dimensions of spinning triangle through forming a groove in the middle zone of the front darfting &#10roller with a curvature of 5 to 7 mm. For the ...

BACKGROUND: Placenta is a discoid, chorio-deciduate organ which connects the foetus with the uterine wall of mother. Maternal hypertension during pregnancy represents changes in morphological parameters of placenta. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 100 cases of hypertensive disorder of pregnancy and 100 placenta from normal cases between gestational age 28 to 42 weeks at SSG Hospital attached to Medical C...

The human newborn is a reflection of the entirety of nutrients transferred from the maternal to the fetal circulation across the placenta during gestation. By extension, birth weight and newborn health depend on placental function. The goal of this paper is to introduce the use of optimal transport modeling to study the expected effects of (i) placental size, (ii) placental shape (separate from...

A feature of malaria in pregnancy is accumulation of P. falciparum-infected erythrocytes (IEs) in the placenta, which is associated with adverse outcomes for mothers and infants. Infection appears to involve parasite adhesion to molecules such as chondroitin sulfate A, hyaluronic acid, and immunoglobulins. In vitro, adhesion is predominantly a property of mature asexual forms of IEs; however, a...

This is a review cTf cases treated here for retention of the placenta during the last 9 years. During this period 18,591 women were confined, of whom 64 had retained placenta due to uterine inertia, contraction ring, or adhesions of the placenta or membranes. Fifty patients were cured, 4 were discharged otherwise and 10 died, giving a mortality of 15.62 per cent (see table I). The third stage o...
