Intermediate metabolism in association with the amino acid profile during the third trimester of normal pregnancy and diet-controlled gestational diabetes

TL;DR: In gestational diabetes, ketogenic amino acids and the branched-chain amino acid isoleucine are released at low rates from skeletal muscle and are mostly catabolized in the liver rather than in peripheral tissues, in contrast, in normal pregnancy proteinolysis is enhanced, and the ketogenic acids along with brancheric amino acids are catabolization in both the liver and peripheral tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of Uterocervical Angle Width as a Predictive Factor of Preterm Birth: A Systematic Review of the Literature.

TL;DR: UCA measurement during the second trimester of pregnancy may be a useful method of determining women at risk of delivering preterm, however, more studies are needed to assess the reproducibility of these findings and reach conclusive evidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

First trimester 3D volumetry. Association of the gestational volumes with the birth weight.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the embryo volume during the first trimester of pregnancy correlates better with birth weight than the CRL, which might assist in the identification of the high risk pregnancies caring macrosomic and low birth weight fetuses.
