Taurine is an important nutrient in intrauterine life, being required for fetal organ development and cellular renewal of syncytiotrophoblast (STB), the nutrient transport epithelium of the placenta. As taurine is conditionally essential in human pregnancy, the fetal and placental demand for taurine
OBJECTIVE
Obesity is a risk factor for pre-eclampsia, and adiponectin is an important adipocyte-derived hormone that might protect the endothelium. Recent reports have underlined importance of circulating angiogenic factors for pathophysiology of pre-eclampsia. Here we examined whether adiponectin
BACKGROUND
While several studies have demonstrated that obesity increases the risk of pre-eclampsia (PE), the mechanisms have yet to be elucidated. We assessed the association between maternal/paternal obesity and PE and hypothesized that maternal body mass index (BMI) would be associated with an
The use of pregnancy-specific multivitamin supplements is widely recommended to support maternal homeostasis during pregnancy. Our objective was to investigate whether multivitamin use during pregnancy is associated with a reduced risk of pre-eclampsia. The effect of multivitamin use on incidence of
Susceptibility genes present in both mother and fetus most likely contribute to the risk of pre-eclampsia. Placental biopsies were therefore investigated by high-density DNA microarray analysis to determine genes differentially regulated within chorionic villous tissue in pre-eclampsia and normal
Eclampsia (together with epilepsy) being the first disease ever written down since the beginning of writings in mankind 5000 years ago, we will make a brief presentation of the different major steps in comprehension of Pre-eclampsia. 1) 1840. Rayer, description of proteinuria in eclampsia, 2) 1897
OBJECTIVE
We sought to investigate whether previously identified risk factors are associated with eclampsia in a contemporary, heterogeneous cohort of women.
METHODS
Data were collected from birth certificate and hospital discharge records and used to conduct a population-based case-control study
A case-control study was conducted to investigate risk factors for eclampsia. A total of 66 cases of eclampsia were ascertained from deliveries between 1977 and 1992 at two hospitals in Houston, Texas, based on the criteria defined by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Cases were
BACKGROUND
Obesity is a serious medical condition affecting more than 30% of Indiana, and 25% of Unites States pregnant women. Obesity is related to maternal complications, and significantly impacts the health of pregnant women. The objective of this study was to describe the relationship between
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the association between overweight and severe acute maternal morbidity (SAMM) in a low-risk pregnant population.
METHODS
Nationwide case-control study.
METHODS
The Netherlands, august 2004 to august 2006.
METHODS
1567 cases from initially primary care and 2994 women from
OBJECTIVE
A large number of women with a history of pre-eclampsia/HELLP have a low plasma volume at least six months postpartum. The objective of this study was to determine whether a low plasma volume in formerly pre-eclamptic women and HELLP patients is associated with an increased risk for
Magnesium sulfate is most effective for prevention and treatment of convulsions among preeclampsia women. The therapeutic level of magnesium at 4.8 to 8.4 mg/dL and the overdose of magnesium may be fatal. In Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital, intravenous magnesium sulfate is used with the starting
Obesity during pregnancy is associated with increased risks of thromboembolism, gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia, miscarriage, congenital anomaly, macrosomia and stillbirth. The current practice, directed at reducing gestational weight gain, is largely ineffective. The present pilot study was
Obesity and overweight are not only problem of developed nations but also increasing problem in developing countries with health consequence. Studies have highlighted the link between obesity, infertility and adverse reproductive health outcome. Obesity contribute majorly to two most common medical
Overweight and obesity before conception as well as excessive weight gain during pregnancy are associated with endocrinological changes of mother and fetus. Insulin resistance physiologically increases during pregnancy, additional obesity further increases insulin resistance. In combination with
