Discordant placental echogenicity: a novel sign of impaired placental perfusion in twin-twin transfusion syndrome?

TL;DR: A case of TTTS with discordant placental echogenicity characterized by a hyperechoic and thicker placental side in the donor twin associated with reduced vascular Doppler signals, histologic lesions suggestive of ischemic changes, and overexpression of anti-angiogenic factors is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for a spatial and temporal regulation of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 expression in human amnion in term and preterm parturition.

TL;DR: PTGS2 expression in the amnion shows a distinct spatial and temporal regulation and spontaneous labor at term and pathological preterm labor clearly differ in amniotic PTGS2 and PGE(2) abundance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Total hemoglobin concentration in amniotic fluid is increased in intraamniotic infection/inflammation.

TL;DR: The AF concentration of immunoreactive total hemoglobin increases with advancing gestational age, and is elevated in pregnancies that are complicated with IAI, as well as among patients with PTL and PPROM.
