Mining the literature for genes associated with placenta-mediated maternal diseases.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Automated literature analysis could significantly speed up understanding of the role of the placenta and the impact of its development and functions on the health of the mother and the child. To facilitate automatic extraction of information about pl...

Two-stage approach for risk estimation of fetal trisomy 21 and other aneuploidies using computational intelligence systems.

Ultrasound in obstetrics & gynecology : the official journal of the International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the risk of fetal trisomy 21 (T21) and other chromosomal abnormalities (OCA) at 11-13 weeks' gestation using computational intelligence classification methods.

Fully-automated alignment of 3D fetal brain ultrasound to a canonical reference space using multi-task learning.

Medical image analysis
Methods for aligning 3D fetal neurosonography images must be robust to (i) intensity variations, (ii) anatomical and age-specific differences within the fetal population, and (iii) the variations in fetal position. To this end, we propose a multi-tas...

Maternal exposure to ambient PM during pregnancy increases the risk of congenital heart defects: Evidence from machine learning models.

The Science of the total environment
Previous research suggested an association between maternal exposure to ambient air pollutants and risk of congenital heart defects (CHDs), though the effects of particulate matter ≤10μm in aerodynamic diameter (PM) on CHDs are inconsistent. We used ...

Pro-inflammatory cytokines after an episode of acute pancreatitis: associations with fasting gut hormone profile.

Inflammation research : official journal of the European Histamine Research Society ... [et al.]
INTRODUCTION: Pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-6, tumour necrosis factor (TNF)α, and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, are often elevated in individuals after acute pancreatitis but what determines their levels is poorly u...

Sludge reflects intra-amniotic inflammation with or without microorganisms.

American journal of reproductive immunology (New York, N.Y. : 1989)
PROBLEM: To investigate whether amniotic fluid (AF) "sludge" in patients with preterm labor (PTL) with intact membranes is related to intra-amniotic infection or inflammation.

Stroke Volume Recruitability during the Third Trimester of Pregnancy.

American journal of perinatology
OBJECTIVE: It is unknown whether the heart operates in the ascending or flat portion of the Starling curve during normal pregnancy. Pregnant women do not respond to the passive leg-raising maneuver secondary to mechanical obstruction of the inferior ...

Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH), antral follicle count (AFC), external morphometrics and fertility in Tabapuã cows.

Animal reproduction science
The intense selection of characteristics related to animal performance may affect the reproductive efficiency of beef cows negatively. Selection for fertility along with production traits is, therefore, readily justifiable. The objective of the prese...
