SummaryIn a prospective longitudinal study, 130 primigravidae at risk for preeclampsia were examined and plasma sampling performed in 45 of them. Plasma thrombomodulin (pTM) was sequentially measured at weeks 12, 24 and 32 of gestation and after delivery in 20 primigravidae who developed either mild preeclampsia (n = 8) or gestational hyper-tension (n = 12) between weeks 32 and 39 of gestation and in 25 (age-matched) primigravidae who had uneventful pregnancies. pTM elevations were not observed until week 32 in uneventful pregnancies, but were present by week 24 (p = 0.002) in patients who later developed hypertensive complications. A net individual pTM increase ≥4.2 ng/ml between weeks 12 and 24 (more than 8 times that of normotensive primigravidae) and/or pTM level ≥47.5 ng/ml at week 32 predicted the development of hypertensive complications with 80% accuracy. Serial pTM determinations can be useful to select pregnancies who may benefit from early pharmacological intervention.

Objective The purpose of this study was to use caregiver report measures to describe the developmental status of infants and toddlers with clefts. Method Developmental assessment data were obtained on 186 infants and toddlers with cleft lip (n = 48), cleft palate (n = 46), and cleft lip/palate (n = 92) at one of the following age categories: 5 months (n = 47), 13 months (n = 46), 25 months (n = 47), and 36 months (n = 46). Developmental assessment measures used were the Kent Infant Developmental Scale and the Minnesota Child Development Inventory, both caregiver reports. Data were analyzed in separate 2-between ANOVAs (age x cleft type) for each developmental domain according to developmental assessment measure. Further, results were examined relative to the normative sample. Results The ANOVA results indicated that at 5 months, lower motor and self-help developmental quotients (DQs) were evident compared to the 13-month-old level. When compared to the normative sample, the 5-month-old infants exhibited ‘at-risk/delayed’ development on the motor, self-help, and cognitive domains, and as reflected on their full-scale scores, depending on the cleft type. Infants at 13 and 25 months were within normal limits in all developmental domains, with the exception of the 13-month-old infants with cleft palate, who demonstrate ‘at-risk’ development in the motor domain. At 36 months of age, all toddlers demonstrated significantly lower developmental performance in the fine motor, gross motor, and expressive language domain compared to the 25-month-old toddlers. Toddlers with cleft palate exhibit ‘at-risk/delayed’ development in the expressive language domain at 36 months. Conclusion Data are discussed relative to the events surrounding team management of clefts, Including surgery, middle-ear problems, and feeding difficulty.
