For several observational studies that have reported the factors related to gastroschisis, the target population in these studies was mainly residents of Europe or the US, and there is little data on the Asian population. In this study, we summarised characteristics of Japanese women To generate new leads about risk factors for gastroschisis, a birth defect that has been increasing in prevalence over time, we performed an untargeted data mining statistical approach.Using data exclusively from the California Center of the National Birth We reviewed retrospectively a series of eventrations treated with a nonresorbable prosthesis. Most of the eventrations occurred after medial laparotomies (83.7%), predominantly with sub-umbilical incision (42.5%) and often after gynecological or biliary surgery (31.9 and 27.5% respectively).
Gastroschisis is an open abdominal wall defect with low mortality but significant morbidity. The prevalence has been increasing worldwide for the past decades. Several risk factors for gastroschisis have been identified, but no clear reason for increasing prevalence has been found. In A mother's prepregnancy obesity has been suggested as a risk factor for having offspring with an abdominal wall defect. We evaluated this hypothesis among 104 cases of gastroschisis--a severe birth defect of the abdominal wall most prevalent in infants of young women--and 220 controls with no
OBJECTIVE
To describe the relation between maternal obesity, overweight and underweight status, and 16 categories of structural birth defects.
METHODS
An ongoing multisite, case-control study. Clinical geneticists reviewed all of the cases, excluding those that had or were strongly suspected to have
From 1984 in N.N. Burdenko Surgical clinic of I.M. Sechenov MMA more than 500 horizontal gastroplasties (HGP) were performed for the treatment of patients with extreme degree of alimentary-constitutional obesity. In 1996 for the first time in our country HGP was performed, including laparoscopic
A three-part hypothesis is proposed to explain the unusual epidemiology of gastroschisis, a congenital abnormality of the abdominal wall, which has a rising frequency, a higher rate in first and young mothers in whites but not blacks, and a unique negative correlation with obesity. The hypothesis
A 1-yr-old male leopard (Panthera pardus) presented for intermittent anorexia, emaciation, and generalized muscle wasting. Plain radiographs, ultrasonography, and esophageal endoscopy led to a diagnosis of diaphragmatic eventration with probable concurrent hiatal hernia. An exploratory laparotomy
Gastroschisis is a severe congenital anomaly the etiology of which is unknown. Research evidence supports attempted vaginal delivery for pregnancies complicated by gastroschisis in the absence of obstetric indications for cesarean delivery.
The objectives of the study evaluating pregnancies
OBJECTIVE
To determine the progress, physical and metabolic outcomes of gastroschisis survivors.
METHODS
Fifty children born with gastroschisis were assessed with a health questionnaire, physical assessment, bone density and nutritional blood parameters at a median age of 9years (range
OBJECTIVE
Gastroschisis is a rare congenital anomaly consisting of an abdominal wall defect resulting in extrusion of the abnormal organs. Survival of these infants exceeds 90%. Few large-scale studies have examined the predictors of mortality for these infants. Our objective was to conduct a
BACKGROUND
Evidence suggests an association between maternal obesity and some congenital anomalies.
OBJECTIVE
To assess current evidence of the association between maternal overweight, maternal obesity, and congenital anomaly.
METHODS
MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Scopus (January 1966 through May
With physical examination alone it is difficult or even impossible to evaluate the abdominal wall damage in patients with major evisceration, especially when they are obese. Computerized tomography (CT) is very useful in this respect as it provides a detailed anatomical overview of the lesions. CT
