TL;DR: Echolucent images of cerebral white matter, seen on cranial ultrasonographic scans of very low birth weight newborns, predict motor and cognitive limitations and indicators of maternal infection and of a fetal inflammatory response are strongly and independently associated with EL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Standards of Birth Weight in Twin Gestations Stratified by Placental Chorionicity
TL;DR: It is recommended that future epidemiologic and clinical studies use twin nomograms to identify growthrestricted twin fetuses and that fetal growth assessment in twin gestations consider placental chorionicity, whenever the information is available.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical chorioamnionitis and histologic placental inflammation.
TL;DR: Clinical chorioamnionitis and possible neonatal infection were not supported by histologic evidence for infection in 38.1% and 26.8% of cases, respectively, suggesting other noninflammatory causes of signs and symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of chorioamnionitis on neurodevelopmental outcome in preterm infants.
TL;DR: In very low-birth-weight infants, a higher incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage and retinopathy of prematurity but similar MDI and PDI scores and risk of cerebral palsy associated with chorioamnionitis is found.
Histologic evidence of inflammation and risk of placental
TL;DR: It is suggested that the histologic findings in abruption are accompanied by severe inflammation, in both preterm and term gestations, and Histologic chorioamnionitis is associated with placental abruption.
