Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of fetal sex on singleton pregnancy growth charts customized for parental characteristics, race, and parity Methods: In a multicentric cross-sectional study, 8070 ultrasonographic examinations from low-risk singleton pregnancies between 16 and 40 weeks of gestation were considered. The fetal measurements obtained were biparietal diameter (BPD), head circumference (HC), abdominal circumference (AC), and femur length (FL). Quantile regression was used to examine the impact of fetal sex across the biometric percentiles of the fetal measurements considered together with parents' height, weight, parity, and race. RESULTS: Fetal gender resulted to be a significant covariate for BDP, HC, and AC with higher values for male fetuses (p ≤ 0.0009). Minimal differences were found among sexes for FL. Parity, maternal race, paternal height and maternal height, and weight resulted significantly related to the fetal biometric parameters considered independently from fetal gender. CONCLUSION: In this study, we constructed customized biometric growth charts for fetal sex, parental, and obstetrical characteristics using quantile regression. The use of gender-specific charts offers the advantage to define individualized normal ranges of fetal biometric parameters at each specific centile. This approach may improve the antenatal identification of abnormal fetal growth.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To compare longitudinal changes in angle of progression (AoP) and midline angle (MLA) during the active second stage of labor according to the mode of delivery. METHODS: A three-dimensional transperineal ultrasound volume was acquired in a series of nulliparous women at the beginning of the active second stage (T1) and every 20 min thereafter (T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6). Following delivery, all ultrasound volumes were analyzed and AoP and MLA were measured. RESULTS: Among 71 women included in the study, 58 underwent spontaneous vaginal delivery (group A) and 13 underwent operative delivery (group B) (eight by vacuum extraction and five by Cesarean section). When compared with Group B, Group A had a wider AoP only at T1 (140.0 +/- 20.2 degrees vs. 122.9 +/- 16.7 degrees ; P = 0.010) and T2 (149.7 +/- 20.7 degrees vs. 126.9 +/- 17.5 degrees ; P = 0.006). MLA was narrower in group A only at T3 (21.2 +/- 11.7 degrees vs. 40.8 +/- 27.9 degrees ; P = 0.043), T4 (18.2 +/- 15.0 degrees vs. 47.4 +/- 29.6 degrees ; P = 0.020) and T5 (18.3 +/- 6.0 degrees vs. 34.7 +/- 4.2 degrees ; P = 0.034). On stepwise forward multiple logistic regression analysis, both AoP and MLA were independently associated with operative delivery (OR = 0.955 and OR = 1.018, respectively). CONCLUSION: Ultrasonographic assessment of fetal head descent in the second stage of labor may play a role in the prediction of the mode of delivery.

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the association between application of fundal pressure during the second stage of labor (Kristeller maneuver) and the risk of levator ani muscle (LAM) injury.Methods: This was a prospective case-control study of women recruited immediately after their first vaginal delivery in our university hospital between March 2014 and September 2016. Women who underwent the Kristeller maneuver were recruited as cases. For each case, a control (no Kristeller) was recruited matched for body mass index, use of epidural analgesia, duration of second stage of labor and birth weight. All women were invited to undergo four-dimensional (4D) transperineal ultrasound (TPU) 3-6 months postpartum. The main outcome measure was the presence of LAM avulsion on 4D-TPU. TPU results were compared between cases and controls. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors for LAM avulsion.Results: During the study period, 134 women in the Kristeller maneuver group and 128 women in the control group underwent TPU assessment. Women who underwent the Kristeller maneuver had a higher prevalence of LAM avulsion than did controls (38/134 (28.4%) vs 18/128 (14.1%); P = 0.005). In addition, women in the Kristeller-maneuver group had a larger hiatal area on maximum Valsalva maneuver and a greater increase in hiatal area from rest to maximum Valsalva. On multivariate logistic regression analysis, use of the Kristeller maneuver was the only independent factor associated with LAM avulsion (odds ratio, 2.5 (95% CI, 1.29-4.51)).Conclusion: The Kristeller maneuver is associated with an increased risk of LAM avulsion when applied in women during their first vaginal delivery. This should be taken into account when deciding to use fundal pressure to accelerate the second stage of labor and when counseling women following childbirth. Copyright © 2018 ISUOG.

Abstract

The photodynamic activity of bonellin has been investigated on rabbit superficial mycoses. The animals, experimentally infected with Trichophyton mentagrophytes, receveid topical applications of bonellin solution (100, 150 200 mg/ml) on the mycotic patches before the irradiation with a solar simulator (90J(cm2). Both bonellin application and irradiation were carried out once for each rabbit. The results for rabbits receveing 150 and 200 mg/ml of bonellin show that: 1)the microscopic and coltural examination, from samples collected 72 hours from the treatment, were negative and 2) after 9 days the animals appeared clinically and microbiologically recovered. The possible action mechanism is discussed.

Abstract

Study of the possible phototoxic action of bonellin, an usual chlorin extracted from the sea worm Bonellia viridis, on strains of six species of both human and animal dermatophytes, showed that this substances has an inhibitory effect on fungal reproduction. Using a solar simulator for irradiations this inhibitory effect was found to be photomediated.

Abstract

Objective: To compare the accuracy of transperineal (TP) ultrasound with transabdominal (TA) approach in the sonographic assessment of fetal occiput position during the second stage of labour.Methods: A series of low-risk women at term attending the labour ward of three university hospitals were prospectively recruited for the purpose of this study. During the second stage of labor patients were evaluated first by TP and than by TA ultrasound to determine the fetal position. The occiput position was labelled as DOA (direct occiput anterior), ROA (right occiput anterior), LOA (left occiput anterior), DOP (direct occiput posterior), ROP (right occiput posterior), LOP (left occiput posterior), ROT (right occuput transverse) and LOT (left occiput transverse). The agreement between the two techniques was assessed.Results: Overall 80 patients were recruited in the study group. Ultrasound examination was performed at 21(± 8) minutes from the beginning of the active pushing. The ultrasound findings of the fetal occiput position were recorded. In all cases TA ultrasound confirmed the fetal occiput position as determined at TP approach except in one case of ROA that had been recorded as ROT using TP ultrasound.Conclusions: Ultrasound TP examination is accurate in the diagnosis of fetal occiput position during the second stage of labor.
