Disease relevance of Abortion, Threatened

• RESULTS: Mean fetal fibronectin values ranged from 0.08 microg/mL in women with ectopic pregnancies to 0.33 microg/mL in women with threatened abortions [1].
• CONCLUSION: Corpus luteal support with dydrogesterone has been shown to reduce the incidence of pregnancy loss in threatened abortion during the first trimester in women without a history of recurrent abortion [2].
• In the present study we sought to compare levels of PAPP-A and hCG produced by different types of pregnancy: normal, ectopic, threatened abortion and molar pregnancy after evacuation [3].
• Our objectives were to assess the plasma coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) levels in normal pregnancy, in pregnancy with a spontaneous contractile event, in spontaneous abortion and in threatened abortion [4].
• In this article, the authors report the case of a pregnant woman who presented with a plasma triglyceride level of 65 mmol/L, abdominal pain, and a threatened abortion at 8 weeks of gestation [5].

High impact information on Abortion, Threatened

• Simultaneous sonography and quantitative serum human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) levels from 126 women with threatened abortion were compared [6].
• In an attempt to determine whether sonographic evaluation alone can distinguish normal from abnormal gestation sacs, a retrospective analysis was performed of ultrasound (US) scans from 168 women with threatened abortion [7].
• Both case-control and before-after studies indicated that threatened abortion and premature delivery did not significantly relate to treatment of celiac disease [8].
• The other two had a full-term, normal delivery; one of them received no therapy during the pregnancy, whereas the other was treated with acetylsalicylic acid from 11 weeks for signs of threatened abortion [9].
• Dydrogesterone in threatened abortion: pregnancy outcome [2].

Chemical compound and disease context of Abortion, Threatened

• These studies were designed to show that properly timed measurements of serum progesterone (P) can be conveniently used in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with recurrent and threatened abortion [10].
• Threatened abortion studied by estradiol-17 beta in serum and ultrasound [11].
• One hundred patients admitted to hospital with a diagnosis of threatened abortion were assessed by means of sonar, urinary oestrogen, pregnanediol and human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) assays and clinical examination [12].
• Both threatened abortions and exposure to isoxsuprine were associated only with nonatopic asthma [13].
• Corpus luteum dysfunction: serum progesterone levels in diagnosis and assessment of therapy for recurrent and threatened abortion [10].

Biological context of Abortion, Threatened

• Exposure to isoxsuprine was significantly associated with asthma (aOR 1.54; 95% CI 1.08-2.19) while threatened abortions were more frequent in the asthma group than in controls, although the difference was statistically significant only when such events occurred in the second trimester (aOR 2.06; 95% CI 1.07-3.94) [13].
• The use of vaginal progesterone improved the outcome of pregnancies complicated by threatened abortion and previous diagnosis of inadequate luteal phase [14].
• All four hormone levels in EP were significantly lower (P less than 0.01-P less than 0.0001) than in normal pregnancies and threatened abortions of matched gestational age except the hCG and E2 in the fifth week of pregnancy [15].

Anatomical context of Abortion, Threatened

• T cell adhesion to collagen IV (C-IV), elastin (E) and fibronectin in 35 women with threatened abortion and in five normal pregnant women were studied [16].

Gene context of Abortion, Threatened

• Maternal serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-2 receptor in threatened abortion: a comparison with normal and pathologic pregnancies [17].
• RESULT(S): The mean +/- SEM maternal serum IL-2 receptor level for patients with threatened abortion was 481.3 +/- 35.7 U/mL, compared with 426.5 +/- 22.4 U/mL in the normal pregnant group [17].
• Alpha-fetoprotein: a marker for threatened abortion [18].
• Sex-hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) in serum in threatened abortion [19].
• RESULTS: Treatments with intermittent molecular adsorbent recirculating system (MARS) for 3 times resulted in an immediate improvement of liver function and clinical symptoms including HE and threatened abortion until her fully recovery [20].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Abortion, Threatened

• Complications during pregnancy: threatened abortion, EPH gestosis, placenta praevia, gestational diabetes, late fetal death are more frequent than in control group (p < 0.05) [21].
