...George Justus Hofmeyr; Busiwe D. Majeke; Mercy-Nkuba Nassali Introduction: Hemorrhage from a partially or fully detached placenta with an advanced abdominal pregnancy can be profuse and catastrophic. The general approach to placental management is removal of “all or nothing.” In the event of acute...

... placenta and placenta accreta. A significant rate of vaginal deliveries in both groups entailed manual removal of the placenta or exploration of the uterine cavity (23.5 and 10.5%, p = 0.20). Conclusion: Pregnancies following RPOC after delivery entail a higher rate of abnormal placentation...

... were scanned 7 times between the 14th and 38th week of gestation, at 4-week intervals, using MRI. Placental volumes were measured in both sagittal and transversal slices. All placentas were weighed after delivery to make a comparative study. Results: Sixteen of the 20 women had increasing placental...

... Placenta Preeclampsia (PE), a pregnancy-related disorder, is a disease that threatens both maternal and child health [ 1 ]. In many countries, irrespective of the strength of the economy, PE appears to be a predominant factor responsible for the increased morbidity and mortality among pregnant...

... was significantly decreased in the placentae of pre-eclamptic women compared to gestation-matched controls. Conclusion: Therefore, the results of this study support the hypothesis that a placental PG deficiency may contribute to the placental thrombotic lesions characteristic of PE. PE is associated with reduced...

... was differentially expressed in placental samples from small for gestational age (SGA) neonates. Methods: This study was performed in an academic hospital. Samples of villous tissue were obtained from placentae of 31 SGA (n = 16) or adequate to gestational age neonates (n = 15) delivered vaginally. The histological...

... and eight proteins were downregulated. One of the upregulated spots was identified as Hsp27. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that Hsp27 was mainly located in the trophoblasts. The Western blot analysis showed that the expression of Hsp27 in the tissues of the preeclampsia placenta was significantly...

For the detection of apoptosis and proliferation, antibody M30 and antibody against Ki-67 antigen were used. Expression of FasL...

The pregnancy serum oxytocinase and the lysosomal oxytocinase in human placenta shared...

... and placental blood flow followed a similar pattern, but the early increase in placental flow was more rapid than the increase in fetal weight. Hence placental flow per gram of fetus was larger in early pregnancy (∼9 ml/min·g) than near term (∼0.25 ml/min·g). In twin pregnancies the placenta of each fetus...
