BACKGROUND
Preterm birth is a major cause of infant morbidity and long-term disability, and is associated with numerous central nervous system (CNS) deficits. Infants exposed to intrauterine inflammation, specifically chorioamnionitis, are at risk for very early preterm birth and neurological
The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between neonatal mortality-morbidity and pregnancies with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), particularly those complicated by histologic chorioamnionitis (HCA), in preterm infants. A retrospective study was conducted on 58 preterm
121 out of 390 placentas of mostly pathological deliveries and preganancies were cases of chorioamnionitis. Histological studies have been performed under topographical respects. Several localisations (dynamic phases) of ascending infection of the secundinae are being described and their clinical
BACKGROUND
Using naked-eye evaluation of foetal heart rate (FHR) patterns remains difficult and is not complete. Computer-aided analysis of the FHR offers the opportunity to analyse the FHR completely and to detect all changes due to hypoxia and acidosis. In order to better understand these changes
UNASSIGNED
To identify maternal, fetal and neonatal risk factors associated with perinatal hypoxia in neonates at Hospital Universitario Mayor Mederi (HUM Mederi) from 2007 to 2011.
UNASSIGNED
In the period 2007-2011, 8 837 children were born in HUM Mederi. Only the cases that presented with
BACKGROUND
Using the naked eye, evaluation of fetal heart-rate (FHR) patterns remains difficult and is not complete. Computer-aided analysis of the FHR offers the opportunity to analyse FHR patterns completely and to detect all changes possibly due to hypoxia and acidosis. It was the goal of this
Chorioamnionitis and funisitis are associated with neonatal morbidity and mortality. We hypothesized that chorioamnionitis may stress fetal endothelium, activate proinflammatory gene transcription. and affect angiogenic homeostasis in fetal capillaries. Placentas from preterm infants were stained
Excitotoxicity is a mechanism of neuronal injury, implicated in the pathogenesis of many acute and chronic neurologic disorders, including perinatal brain injury associated with hypoxia-ischemia and exposure to intrauterine inflammation. Glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter, signals
Encephalopathy of prematurity (EoP) is a term that encompasses the central nervous system (CNS) abnormalities associated with preterm birth. To best advance translational objectives and uncover new therapeutic strategies for brain injury associated with preterm birth, preclinical models of EoP must
In the United States, perinatal brain injury (PBI) is a major cause of infant mortality and childhood disability. For a large proportion of infants with PBI, central nervous system (CNS) injury begins in utero with inflammation (chorioamnionitis/CHORIO) and/or hypoxia-ischemia. While studies show
To evaluate the cardiotocography (CTG) features observed in suspected intrapartum chorioamnionitis in term fetuses according to the recently suggested criteria for the pathophysiological interpretation of the fetal heart rate and their correlation with perinatal Background: Antenatal inflammation with placental dysfunction is strongly associated with high BPD risk in preterm infants. Whether antenatal or postnatal HIF augmentation can preserve lung structure and function and prevent pulmonary
BACKGROUND
Using the naked eye evaluation of fetal heart rate (fhr) patterns remains difficult and is not complete. Computer-aided analysis of the fhr offers the opportunity to analyze fhr patterns completely and to detect all changes due to hypoxia and acidosis. It was the goal of this study to
Foodborne diseases caused by Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) are a significant health problem. Pregnancy, state of immunological tolerance, is a predisposing condition for the development of infections with intracellular pathogens. Salmonella species can cause pregnancy
BACKGROUND
This study tested whether tocolysis with beta-adrenergic agonists (Fenoterol) had an effect on the frequency of cerebral lesions in preterm neonates.
METHODS
Head ultrasound scans of preterm neonates who were born after long-term (> 24 h) tocolysis were compared with scans of preterm
