Induced abortion and risk of small-for-gestational-age birth.
2007
Objective: To investigate the possibility of an association between previous induced abortion and subsequent birth of a small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infant. Design: Case-control study. Setting: General and university hospitals. Methods: Cases were 555 women who delivered SGA babies. Controls were 1966 women who gave birth at term (>37 weeks of gestation) to healthy infants of normal weight on randomly selected days at the hospital where cases had been identified. All women in the case and control categories were interviewed on the obstetric wards by one of a team of six interviewers. During the interviews, information was obtained regarding general socio-demographic factors, personal cha…
Association of Gestational Weight Gain With Adverse Maternal and Infant Outcomes
2019
Importance: Both low and high gestational weight gain have been associated with adverse maternal and infant outcomes, but optimal gestational weight gain remains uncertain and not well defined for all prepregnancy weight ranges. Objectives: To examine the association of ranges of gestational weight gain with risk of adverse maternal and infant outcomes and estimate optimal gestational weight gain ranges across prepregnancy body mass index categories. Design, setting, and participants: Individual participant-level meta-analysis using data from 196 670 participants within 25 cohort studies from Europe and North America (main study sample). Optimal gestational weight gain ranges were estimated…
Very preterm birth: who has access to antenatal corticosteroid therapy?
2010
International audience; We describe the administration of antenatal corticosteroid therapy (ACT) for liveborn very preterm neonates in a population-based study. A total of 790 very preterm neonates (between 24 and 31 full weeks of gestation) were included in this regionally defined population of very preterm neonates in France. The main outcome measure was non-access to ACT. Data were analysed using logistic and polytomous models to control for neonatal and sociodemographic characteristics, mechanisms of very preterm birth and neonatal network organisation. As compared with level III, births in levels I-II maternity units were closely related to non-access to ACT (60.1% vs. 8.8%), but not t…

Pressure inactivation kinetics of Enterobacter sakazakii in infant formula milk
2007
Survival curves of Enterobacter sakazakii inactivated by high hydrostatic pressure were obtained at four pressure levels (250, 300, 350, and 400 MPa), at temperatures below 30 degrees C, in buffered peptone water (BPW; 0.3%, wt/vol) and infant formula milk (IFM; 16%, wt/vol). A linear model and four nonlinear models (Weibull, log-logistic, modified Gompertz, and Baranyi) were fitted to the data, and the performances of the models were compared. The linear regression model for the survival curves in BPW and IFM at 250 MPa has fitted regression coefficient (R2) values of 0.940 to 0.700, respectively, and root mean square errors (RMSEs) of 0.770 to 0.370. For the other pressure levels, the lin…
High-urgency kidney transplantation in the Eurotransplant Kidney Allocation System : success or waste of organs? The Eurotransplant 15-year all-centr…
2016
Item does not contain fulltext BACKGROUND: In the Eurotransplant Kidney Allocation System (ETKAS), transplant candidates can be considered for high-urgency (HU) status in case of life-threatening inability to undergo renal replacement therapy. Data on the outcomes of HU transplantation are sparse and the benefit is controversial. METHODS: We systematically analysed data from 898 ET HU kidney transplant recipients from 61 transplant centres between 1996 and 2010 and investigated the 5-year patient and graft outcomes and differences between relevant subgroups. RESULTS: Kidney recipients with an HU status were younger (median 43 versus 55 years) and spent less time on the waiting list compared…
Transanal coloanal anastomosis for Hirschsprung's disease: comparison between endorectal and perirectal pull-through procedures.
2006
Le but de cette etude est de comparer les resultats de 2 techniques chirurgicales d'abaissement transanal par voie perineale pour maladie de Hirschsprung de forme recto-sigmoidienne. Materiel et Methode: Vingt-et-un patients porteurs de maladie de Hirschsprung de forme recto-sigmoidienne ont ete consecutivement operes entre novembre 1999 et avril 2003 dans les services de Chirurgie Pediatrique de Dijon et Strasbourg. Les 21 enfants ont ete operes par voie perineale transanale: Douze d'entre eux ont eu une dissection peri-rectale (TPR) et 9 une endorectale type Soave (TER). Les 2 groupes de patients ont ete compares pour la longueur du segment aganglionnaire, l'âge et le poids au moment de l…
Der Säure-Basenstatus und die CO2-Transportfunktion des mütterlichen und fetalen Blutes zum Zeitpunkt der Geburt
1965
Als Voraussetzung fur die Analyse des Gasaustausches in der menschlichen Placenta werden die charakteristischen Daten fur den CO2-Transport und den Saure-Basenstatus im mutterlichen und fetalen Blut zum Zeitpunkt der Geburt bestimmt. Dabei ergeben sich als Mittelwerte bei 54 Fallen normaler Spontangeburt mit einzeitiger Entwicklung des Kindes, bei denen samtliche Meswerte vorliegen:
Standard international recommendations for gestational weight gain: suitability for our population
2020
Background: gestational weight gain (GWG) is one of the most commonly used indicators in prenatal care, and probably the most influential factor in perinatal outcomes. Objective: to determine the extent to which the GWG of pregnant women from the Ribera Health Department (Valencia) meets GWG international standards as recommended by the U.S. Institute of Medicine (IOM). Methods: a retrospective observational study of a sample of 4,361 women who gave birth at Hospital Universitario de la Ribera between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2015. Pregnant women were classified according to GWG international recommendations: adequate weight gain, above and below. Results: a higher GWG increases the…
Xylit-Verwertung bei Früngeborenen, Säuglingen, Kindern und Erwachsenen Kinetik der Elimination aus dem Blut
1966
Bei der kinetischen Untersuchung des Blutspiegel-Abfalls nach intravenoser Xylit-Infusion lassen sich in der Regel zwei Vorgange unterscheiden: Ein ziemlich rasch ablaufender Vorgang, der als Verteilung auf den Extracellularraum gedeutet wird, und ein langsamerer Prozes der Verteilung auf den gesamten Flussigkeitsraum des Organismus. Zwischen Fruhgeborenen, reifen Sauglingen, Kindern von 4–8 Jahren und Erwachsenen von 30–41 Jahren bestehen keine signifikanten Unterschiede in der Geschwindigkeit des Ablaufs dieser beiden Eliminationsvorgange. Auch der langsamere Verteilungsvorgang auf den gesamten Intracellularraum verlauft sicher schneller als der Xylitumsatz, so das es zu einer vorubergehe…
