概括
第一个三个月升高的α-fetoprotein (AFP) 不是胎盘介导并发症的独立预测因素,与第二个三个月的AFP不同. 这一发现对于理解提高第一季度查准确度至关重要.
科学领域:
- 孕产妇与胎儿的医学
- 在产前查.
- 生物化学 生物化学
背景情况:
- 对于21型三体症查的母体血清标志物与胎盘介导的并发症有关.
- 增强的第一季度查 (FTS) 现在包括α-fetoprotein (AFP) 和胎盘生长因子 (PlGF).
- 第一季度AFP与胎盘介导并发症之间的关联尚未得到充分证实.
研究的目的:
- 评估第一季度AFP与胎盘介导并发症的相关性.
- 为了将这种关联与第二季度AFP和其他第一季度标志物进行比较.
- 为了确定第一季度的AFP是否是一个独立的风险因素.
主要方法:
- 在加拿大安大略省 (2013-2019) 接受21型三症候群查的妇女的回顾性队列研究.
- 评估了第一季度AFP与死产或早产胎盘并发症的复合结果的关联.
- 与PAPP-A,β-hCG,PlGF和第二个三个月的AFP进行比较.
主要成果:
- 所有测试的标志物都与主要结局存在关联.
- 与低PAPP-A,低PlGF和高第二季度AFP相比,第一季度AFP升高的关联较弱 (aRR,1.57).
- 在对所有增强的FTS标记进行调整后,第一季度AFP升高不再与结果相关 (aRR,0.77).
结论:
- 第一个三个月升高的AFP不是胎盘介导并发症的独立风险因素.
- 第一季度AFP的预测值与第二季度AFP的预测值有很大的不同.
- 这些发现支持对增强的FTS标记的解释进行细化.

Teratogenicity
2.5K
The ability of a drug to produce structural deformations and functional abnormalities in the developing embryo or the fetus is called teratogenicity, and the drug producing this effect is known as a teratogen. Teratogenic effects include stillbirth, miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, and neurocognitive delay. A teratogen may affect the embryo at different stages of development, which is important in determining the type and extent of the damage. During blastocyst formation, the early...

Fetal Circulation
1.1K
Fetal circulation is a unique system that facilitates the exchange of gases, nutrients, and waste products between the developing fetus and the mother. This intricate process takes place through a special organ called the placenta.
Two umbilical arteries transport blood from the fetus to the placenta. At the placenta, the blood absorbs oxygen and nutrients while simultaneously eliminating waste products. This oxygen-enriched and nutrient-rich blood then returns to the fetus through one...

Gonadal and Placental Hormones
1.5K
The gonads, namely the testes in males and the ovaries in females, are pivotal in producing gonadal hormones that orchestrate the intricate processes of sexual development and reproduction.
In males, testosterone is the primary gonadal androgen. It plays a central role in the maturation of male reproductive organs — the penis and testes. Additionally, testosterone is instrumental in the development of secondary sexual characteristics — a deep voice as well as facial and pubic hair...
