OBJECTIVE
To determine if tobacco use increases the incidence of preterm premature rupture of the membranes (pPROM) or alters perinatal outcomes after pPROM.
METHODS
This is a secondary analysis of the databases of three completed Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human
To assess the exposure to tobacco smoke in pregnant women with oligohydramnios, idiopathic or caused by premature rupture of the membranes (PROM), cotinine concentrations were measured, using enzyme-like immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In women with idiopathic oligohydramnios (22-31 weeks of
OBJECTIVE
The ingredients of tobacco smoke have the impact on uterine blood vessels. They caused vascular insufficiency of placenta during development of gestation and changes in placental tissue and fetal membranes. It manifest changeable metal permeability and others symptoms.
METHODS
Assessment
'Coat-imposed' seed dormancy of many non-endospermic and endospermic species is released during after-ripening. After-ripening-mediated promotion of tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum L.) seed germination is mainly due to a promotion of testa rupture and a similar promotion of subsequent endosperm rupture.
Background and Purpose- Tobacco cigarette smoking is considered to be a strong risk factor for intracranial aneurysmal rupture. Nicotine is a major biologically active constituent of tobacco products. Nicotine's interactions with vascular cell nicotinic acetylcholine receptors containing α7 subunits
OBJECTIVE
Morphological lesions in placenta and changed metal distribution through placenta, which were observed in pregnancy exposed to tobacco smoke, could cause alternations in lysosomal enzymes secretion to amniotic fluid.
METHODS
Assessment of total activity and molecular forms of
The aim of the present study was to assess the activity of membrane enzymes: alanine aminopeptidase (AAP), gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) and trehalase in amniotic fluid of women who smoke cigarettes during pregnancy complicated by idiopathic oligohydramnios or premature rupture of the membranes
BACKGROUND
The purpose of this study was to identify characteristics associated with bilateral ruptures of the distal biceps tendons.
METHODS
We present a retrospective case series of 25 patients who sustained non-simultaneous bilateral distal biceps brachii tendon ruptures that were repaired
An air-dry developmental state with low-hydrated tissues is a characteristic of most plant seeds. Seed dormancy is an intrinsic block of germination and can be released during after-ripening, that is air-dry storage of mature seeds. Both seed-covering layers, testa and endosperm, cause the
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular disease characterized by weakening of vascular walls and progressive dilation of the abdominal aorta. Nicotine, the main component of tobacco, is reportedly associated with the development and rupture of AAA. It is desirable to attenuate the destructive
A method to remove the exine from mature tobacco pollen and to release numerous intact pollen protoplasts has been developed. Post-anthesis binucleate pollen was treated with water, buffered with MES at pH 5.5, for two hours. Rupture of the exine was caused by the force of pollen hydration exposing
Rupture of the seed coat and rupture of the endosperm are separate events in the germination of Nicotiana tabacum L. cv Havana 425 seeds. Treatment with 10-5 M abscisic acid (ABA) did not appreciably affect seed-coat rupture but greatly delayed subsequent endosperm rupture by more than 100 h and
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular disease involving gradual dilation of the abdominal aorta. Recent studies suggest that nicotine, which is a primary component in cigarette smoke, is closely associated with the development and rupture of an AAA. Nicotine accelerates AAA development
'Coat-enhanced' seed dormancy of many dicotyledonous species, including tobacco, is released during after-ripening. Rupture of the endosperm, which is the limiting step in tobacco seed germination, is preceded by induction of class I beta-1,3-glucanase (betaGLU I) in the micropylar endosperm where
When cell-free preparations containing large molecules and subcellular bodies extracted from tobacco-leaf cells infected with tobacco mosaic virus were incubated with MgCl(2) and the four ribonucleoside-5'-triphosphates, the level of infectivity increased about threefold in 30 minutes. The mechanism
