Umbilical Cord Arterial Blood Gas Study and Cord Blood Lactate Predictability for Unfavorable Neonatal Outcomes by E Eltaieb in IGWHC in Lupine Publishers Background: Prenatal asphyxia is a cornerstone issue influencing neonatal morbidity and mortality with long term health impact. Foetal electronic monitoring is clinically performed in a routine manner to reflect the fetal clinical status throughout intra partum period of time. Normal cardiotocography trace is in powerful correlation with absent academia occurrence at delivery of the neonate. Abnormality of cardiotocographic trace on the other hand trace requires extra clinical evaluation and research implementation. To reflect the metabolic pathways of the neonate, umbilical artery lactate have been analyzed and evaluated. Aim of this research study is to verify the clinical power and value of umbilical cord lactate level in predictability of the unfavorable early onset neonatal outcomes in clinical scenarios of fe...

Aging of Reproductive Systems- A Review Article: (IGWHC)- Lupine Publishers

Image
Aging of Reproductive Systems- A Review Article by Heshmat SW Haroun in IGWHC in Lipine Publishers Aging is an irreversible, progressive and complex process that is manifested with macroscopic and microscopic changes in tissues, organs and systems. Human aging starts at the age of 30-40 years. The causes of aging remain unclear but reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial damage are the two acceptable theories. Stimulation of autophagy, caloric restriction and physical exercise are supposed to slow down the aging changes. Thyrotropin releasing hormone and melatonin are considered as antiaging factors. Despite the increase in human life-expectancy, the reproductive organs are the earliest to reveal adverse age-related changes. In male aging there are decreased level of serum testosterone, decline in sperm count and quality, and derangement of androgen target organs such as bone, muscle, and psychosexual function. Older father will likely give rise to an offspring...

Evaluation of Gasometric Behavior of Transfused Fetuses in Alloimmunized Pregnant Women According to the Concentration of Circulating Adult Hemoglobin: (IGWHC)-Lupine Publishers

Image
Evaluation of Gasometric Behavior of Transfused Fetuses in Alloimmunized Pregnant Women According to the Concentration of Circulating Adult Hemoglobin by Naeme Jose de Sa Filho in IGWHC in Lupine Publishers Introduction: Perinatal hemolytic disease occurs due to the passage of antibodies from maternal to fetal circulation through the placenta; this leads to fetal erythrocytes hemolysis and death (in extreme cases). Regarding the treatment by intrauterine transfusion, little is known about the effect of the concentration of transfused adult red blood cells on the hemodynamics and gas exchanges in the fetal blood. Objective: to compare the gasometric values between fetuses with gradual elevation of adult hemoglobin (HbA) concentration after intrauterine transfusion and anemic fetuses with only fetal hemoglobin (HbF). Methods: a longitudinal observational study was carried out from 1998 to 2015 with 365 transfusions performed on 143 fetuses. The HbF concentra...

Possible Role of Inadequate Quantities of Intra-Thyroidal Bromine, Calcium and Magnesium in the Etiology of Female Subclinical Hypothyroidism:(IGWHC)-Lupine Publishers

Image
Possible Role of Inadequate Quantities of Intra-Thyroidal Bromine, Calcium and Magnesium in the Etiology of Female Subclinical Hypothyroidism by V Zaichick in IGWHC in Lupine Publishers Objective: Subclinical hypothyroidism does affect fertility. The prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism is 10-15 times more common in women than in men. Many chemical elements play important role in thyroid function and fertility. The aim of this exploratory study was to evaluate whether significant differences of chemical element contents exist between female and male thyroids and how they can be related to the etiology of subclinical hypothyroidism. Methods: Thyroid tissue levels of Br, Ca, Cl, I, K, Mg, Mn, and Na were prospectively evaluated in 105 healthy persons (33 females and 72 males). Tissue samples were used for chemical element measurements, employing instrumental neutron activation analysis with high resolution spectrometry of short-lived radionuclides. Results: It...
