Evidence for decreased calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptors and compromised responsiveness to CGRP of fetoplacental vessels in preeclamptic pregnancies

TL;DR: It is concluded that CGRP may contribute to the low fetoplacental vascular resistance in normal pregnancies; however, C GRP-dependent vascular relaxation appears to be compromised in preeclamptic pregnancies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Light-induced fluorescence of the human cervix decreases after prostaglandin application for induction of labor at term

TL;DR: Cervical application of prostaglandin preparations for labor induction at term decreases the amount of cross-linked collagen as measured by LIF, and this effect was observed only in patients with a prior high cross- linked collagen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antenatal Magnesium and Cerebral Palsy in Preterm Infants

Deborah Hirtz, +124 more
TL;DR: MgSO4 given prior to preterm delivery was associated with decreased risk of developing echodensities and echolucencies at <32 weeks gestation, but this effect can only partially explain the effect of M gSO4 on CP at 2 years of age.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Fluorescence probe for cervical examination during various reproductive states

TL;DR: These studies represent further investigations that have been done utilizing the fluorescence from pyridinoline, one of the major crosslinks of type I and III collagen, to evaluate cervical connective tissue changes during various female reproductive periods.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of amniotic fluid on the human omental artery in vitro

TL;DR: The catastrophic hemodynamic changes associated with the syndrome of amniotic fluid embolism are not due to a direct effect of circulating amniotics on vascular tone but rather may be due to secondary responses.
