Plasma corticosteroids, free fatty acids, insulin and glucose in maternal blood during delivery.
1970
Plasma-corticosteroids (PCS), free fatty acids (FFA), insulin and glucose were determined continously in maternal blood during the entire course of delivery, from the first stage of labour until 6 hours after delivery. A steep increase in the PCS and FFA concentration could be noticed from the onset of labour (PCS: 37,8±11.2 µg/100 ml;\(s_{\bar x} \),p≦0.01; FFA: 556±106.6 µVal/l;\(s_{\bar x} \),p≦0.01) to the birth of the child (PCS: 96.8±19,5 µg/100 ml;\(s_{\bar x} \),p≦0.01; FFA: 1129±220 µVal/l;\(s_{\bar x} \),p≦0.01) and basal levels were already reached 6 hours later (PCS: 36.0±18.5 µg/100 ml;\(s_{\bar x} \),p≦0.01; FFA: 538±192.8 µVal/l;\(s_{\bar x} \),p≦0.01). The rise of insulin an…
Assessment of ten trace elements in umbilical cord blood and maternal blood: association with birth weight
2015
Background Trace elements are an essential nutritional component for humans and inadequate tissue-concentrations may have a significant effect on fetal size. Objective To measure ten trace elements in blood samples from mothers and their newborns, and assess their association with anthropometric characteristics at birth. The effects of other factors on fetal growth, such as biologic characteristics of the infant and mother, were analysed. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in the Hospital general, University of Valencia, Spain. Healthy pregnant women, and their full-term infants were selected (n = 54 paired samples). Infants were grouped according to birth weight: small for gesta…
The respiratory gas values of the fetal and maternal blood in cartesian nomograms
1966
Respiratory gas values of maternal and fetal blood taken at delivery are represented in two Cartesian nomograms. They are based on data, published by vogel, fischer und thews (1965) and Fischer, Vogel und Thews (1965). The nomograms depict the interdependence of O2 pressure, O2 content, CO2 pressure and CO2 content, established by the O2 and CO2 dissociation curves, as well as by the Bohr effect and the Haldane effect. If two of the values are known, the remaining ones can be read from the nomograms.
