SummarySerial measurements of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) were made in 63 normal pregnancies throughout gestation using a radioimmunoassay. Significant levels of AFP, which were detected as early as at 10 weeks gestation, showed a gradual rise until 32 weeks, after which the levels declined until term...
Pregnant women are more susceptible to high blood pressure (BP) than the general adult population; therefore, all means of preventing this condition should be considered. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is effective in this regard in the general
Objective: To establish a reference distribution of maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) at 11–13 weeks’ gestation and define the contribution of maternal variables that influence the measured concentration of AFP. Methods: Serum concentration of AFP at 11–13 weeks was me...

Maternal serum AFP levels during each trimester of pregnancy were normal indicating that these levels cannot be used as a screening test in prenatal diagnosis. Three-year follow-up after birth showed constantly elevated serum levels in the patient from the start, suggesting a lack of postnatal ...

Ultrasonography in an 18 week pregnancy selected for detailed scanning because of a single elevated maternal serum AFP result suggested the presence of anencephaly. Amniocentesis at 19 weeks yielded a clear AF with an elevated AFP result (5.4 MOM) and no evidence of an acetylcholinesterase band of...
“Women workers faced pregnancy-based discrimination, sexual harassment, and denial of maternity benefits,” according to the report, which also found some factories using child labor. None of that is news to Chheng Sitha, who worked in a factory in Phnom Penh for four years. ...
