Objective We compared the sensitivity and specificity of abdominal circumference (AC) alone versus estimated fetal weight (EFW) to predict small for gestational age (SGA) or large for gestational age (LGA) at birth. Study Design We searched the literature for studies assessing an ultrasonographic AC or EFW after 24 weeks to predict SGA or LGA at birth. Case series or studies including anomalous fetuses or multiple gestations were excluded. We computed the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of any AC or EFW cutoff analyzed by at least two studies. Results We identified 2,460 studies, of which 40 met inclusion criteria (n = 36,519). Four studies assessed AC alone to predict SGA (n = 5,119), and six assessed AC to predict LGA (n = 6,110). Sixteen assessed EFW to predict SGA (n = 13,825), and 22 evaluated EFW to predict LGA (n = 18,896). To predict SGA, AC and EFW < 10th percentile have similar ability to predict SGA. To predict LGA, AC cutoffs were comparable to all EFW cutoffs, except that AC > 35 cm had better sensitivity. Conclusion After 24 weeks, AC is comparable to EFW to predict both SGA and LGA. In settings where serial EFWs are inaccessible, a simpler screening method with AC alone may suffice.

Objectives: To identify the values of CPR in intrauterine growth restriction and evaluate the correlation between cerebroplacental ratio and adverse outcomes in intrauterine growth restriction. Material and methods: A prospective study was conducted on 74 cases of intrauterine growth restriction with an estimated fetal weight less than 10th percentile, at Departement of Obstetric and Gynecology of Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy from 05/2016 – 05/2017. CPR was calculated by PIMCA/PIUA.. The adverse outcomes included gestational age at delivery, methods used to delivery, APGAR score below 7 at 1 minutes and 5 minutes, admission at NICU, perinatal deaths, neonatals deaths. Results: The mean of CPR in group of early IUGR and late IUGR were 0.55 ± 0.14, 1.59 ± 0.69, respectively. The mean of CPR in group IUGR with an estimated fetal weight under the 3th percentile was 1.49 ± 0.76, lower than the mean of CPR in group IUGR with an estimated fetal weight from 3th percentile to 10th percentile. With cut – off at 1, CPR < 1 had the higher prevalence in group of early IUGR, in group IUGR with the estimated fetal weight below the 3th percentile, in group IUGR with hypoamniotic or oligohydramnios. The mean of gestational age at delivery of group IUGR with CPR < 1 and CPR >1 were 37.00 ± 3.18, and 38.59 ± 1.76, respectively. The rate of emergency cesarean section deliveries in the CPR < 1 and CPR > 1 group were 68.75% and 39.65%, respectively (p <0.05). Percentage of neonatal with APGAR ≤ 7 at 1 minute in the group with CPR < 1 and CPR > 1 were 56.25% and 22.41%, respectively. Rate of prenatal death was 12.5 in group IUGR with CPR < 1. Conclusion: There was a strong correlation between CPR and adverse outcomes in intrauterine growth restriction.

IntroductionThis study aims to assess trends in the prevalence of pre-existing diabetes and whether the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes decreased in women between 2006 and 2015 in Catalonia, Spain.Research design and methodsA population-based study of 743 762 singleton deliveries between 2006 and 2015 in Catalonia, Spain, was conducted using data from the Spanish Minimum Basic Data Set. Cases of type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and ‘type 2 diabetes and other pre-existing diabetes’ (‘T2DM and other PGD’) were identified using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification codes. Crude and age-adjusted annual prevalences were calculated. Poisson regression model was used to assess trends in prevalence and perinatal outcomes during the study period.ResultsOverall prevalences of pre-existing diabetes, T1DM and ‘T2DM and other PGD’ were 0.52% (95% CI 0.51 to 0.54), 0.17% (95% CI 0.17 to 0.18) and 0.35% (95% CI 0.33 to 0.36), respectively. From 2006 to 2015, rates increased for pre-existing diabetes (from 0.43 (95% CI 0.39 to 0.48) to 0.56% (0.50 to 0.62), p<0.001), T1DM (from 0.14 (0.11 to 0.17) to 0.20% (0.17 to 0.23), p<0.001) and ‘T2DM and other PGD’ (from 0.29 (0.25 to 0.33) to 0.36% (0.31 to 0.40), p<0.001). Pre-eclampsia rose in women with pre-existing diabetes (from 4.38% to 8.97%, adjusted p<0.001), T1DM (from 3.85% to 12.88%, p=0.005) and ‘T2DM and other PGD’ (from 4.63% to 6.78%, adjusted p=0.01). Prevalence of prematurity, cesarean section and small for gestational age remained stable in all diabetes groups. However, the prevalence of macrosomia fell in women with pre-existing diabetes (from 18.18% to 11.9%, adjusted p=0.011) and ‘T2DM and other PGD’ (from 14.71% to 11.06%, non-adjusted p=0.022, adjusted p=0.305) and large for gestational age decreased in all diabetes groups (from 39.73% to 30.25% in pre-existing diabetes, adjusted p=0.004).ConclusionsThe prevalence of pre-existing diabetes increased significantly in Catalonia between 2006 and 2015. Despite improvements in outcomes related to excessive birth weight, pre-eclampsia rates are rising and overall perinatal outcomes in women with pre-existing diabetes continue to be markedly worse than in the population without diabetes.
