And Oxidative Stress

Metal exposure has been associated with a wide range of adverse birth outcomes and oxidative stress is a leading hypothesis of the mechanism of action of metal toxicity. We assessed the relationship between maternal exposure to essential and non-essential metals and metalloids in pregnancy and oxidative stress markers, and sought to identify windows of vulnerability and effect modification by fetal sex. In our analysis of 215 women from the PROTECT birth cohort study, we measured 14 essential and non-essential metals in urine samples at three time points during pregnancy. The oxidative stress marker 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α (8-iso-PGF2α) and its metabolite 2,3-dinor-5,6-dihydro-15-15-F2t-IsoP, as well as prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α), were also measured in the same urine samples. Using linear mixed models, we examined the main effects of metals on markers of oxidative stress as well as the visit-specific and fetal sex-specific effects. After adjustment for covariates, we found that a few urinary metal concentrations, most notably cesium (Cs) and copper (Cu), were associated with higher 8-iso-PGF2α with effect estimates ranging from 7.3 to 14.9% for each interquartile range, increase in the metal concentration. The effect estimates were generally in the same direction at the three visits and a few were significant only among women carrying a male fetus. Our data show that higher urinary metal concentrations were associated with elevated biomarkers of oxidative stress. Our results also indicate a potential vulnerability of women carrying a male fetus.

Radio Immunoassay

FSH and LH-HCG concentrations were determined by radio-immunoassay in paired maternal and cord sera. The sera of 50 mothers and 51 infants, 25 female and 26 male (one set of twins), were assayed. Mean (± SD) FSH concentration of mothers (3.4 ± 0.9 mIU/ml) giving birth to female infants was not different, p>0.1, from that of mothers (3.7 ± 0.7 mIU/ml) giving birth to male infants. In contrast, mean (± SD) LH-HCG concentration of mothers (15.99 ± 3.1 IU/ml) giving birth to female infants was significantly, p<0.005, greater than that of mothers (11.37 ± 5.0 IU/ml) giving birth to male infants. Cord serum FSH mean (± SD) concentration was significantly, p<0.005, greater in female infants (3.7 ± 0.5 mIU/ml) than male infants (2.4 ± 0.8 mIU/ml). However, mean (± SD) LH-HCG concentrations in female infants (0.122 ± 0.015 IU/ml) was significantly, p<0.005, less than that of male infants (0.156 ± 0.040 IU/ml). Poor correlation, on an individual basis and on a statistical basis, between maternal and cord serum FSH and LH-HCG concentrations was observed. The data of this investigation are consistent with fetal pituitary gonadotropin secretion, confirm previous observations that women bearing a female fetus have higher LH-HCG concentrations than those bearing a male fetus, and suggest a sex difference in cord serum gonadotropin concentrations.

We report a male fetus with a 6.8 Mb deletion on chromosome 7p22.1p22.3 at 16 weeks of gestation. The fetus presented a heart-hand syndrome with great artery malposition, bilateral radial ray deficiency, a single pelvic kidney, and growth retardation. This deletion involves a minimal deleted region for cardiac malformation and the RAC1 gene, previously described in limb anomalies in mice. This fetus is the third human case with limb defects and RAC1 deletion.

Umbilical cord true knot is a rare condition which affects about 1% of all pregnancies. The incidence is not only very low, but it is often undiagnosed antenatally when present despite the availability of prenatal ultrasonography as in this case, where the diagnosis of true knot of umbilical cord was missed even when an ultrasonogram was done 1 week prior to the presentation of patient with decreased fetal movements to opd. Majority of times it does not have any relation with fetal outcome but in certain occasions it is associated with intrauterine fetal demise as in present case presented here. Risk factors include long umbilical cord, polyhydramnios, small fetus, male fetus, etc.
