We conclude that fetuses of diabetic mothers have significant left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction. MPI may be used in the prediction of adverse perinatal outcome in diabetic pregnancies.
Our study showed that abnormal fetal presentation and multiparity are associated with an increased risk of umbilical cord prolapse. The association of risk of cord prolapse with low birth weight was statistically insignificant (P > 0.05). We suggest that the cesarean delivery decreased the risk of perinatal mortality among cases of cord prolapse.
Intraperitoneal instillation of saline and sodium chromoglycate decreased pelvic adhesion formation significantly in a rabbit model. Addition of aprotinin and dexamethasone to these agents gave a further advantage in decreasing pelvic adhesion formation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
