Long-term Effect of Gestatıonal Age and Bırth Weıght on Macular Development

DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2015.036
Synopsis: 
The main aim of the study was to evaluate macular structure in childhood due to their birth history. We found that prematurity might be associated with thicker central foveal thickness and thinner parafoveal thickness in childhood.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate macular structure in childhood due to their birth history, and analyse possible effects of prematurity and birth weight for gestatinonal age.

Design:A cohort, case-control study.

Sonographic Biometry of Fetal Interorbital Distance as a Predictor of Gestational Age in Enugu, Southeast Nigeria

Issue: 
DOI: 
10:7727/wimj.2014.102
Pages: 
128–33
Synopsis: 
The fronto-transverse sonographic technique was established as a feasible technique for the measurement of fetal interorbital distance (IOD). There was good correlation between IOD and other fetal biometric parameters. The regression equation of GA = 6.24 + 4.89 1OD was used to predict the GA.

ABSTRACT

Objective:  The objective of this study was to develop a sonographic technique for the measurement of fetal interorbital distance (IOD) for gestational age (GA) determination and to establish a normogram of IOD for the local population.

The Evaluation of the Effects of Paternal and Maternal Silent Coeliac Disease on Birthweight and Gestational Age in Newborns

Issue: 
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2013.166
Pages: 
470–3
Synopsis: 
Silent coeliac disease may occur in parents especially in mothers of preterm and small gestational age infants even in the absence of apparent clinical indications.
ABSTRACT
 

Objective: Coeliac disease is a chronic disease and is common all over the world. It has many other associated systemic side effects. This study investigated the effect of paternal and maternal  silent coeliac disease on birthweight and gestational age in newborns.
