INTRODUCCION: El crecimiento de un feto se considera restringido si el peso es dos desviaciones estándar menor que el de la media correspondiente a su edad gestacional, está por debajo del percentil 3 para su misma edad gestacional, o se estanca, es decir, no alcanza el tamaño que le corresponde por su potencial biológico. OBJETIVO: Identificar los factores de riesgo asociados con la restricción del crecimiento intrauterino en recién nacidos vivos. METODOS: Estudio observacional, descriptivo, transversal y retrospectivo. Se revisaron los expedientes clínicos  de madres cuyo producto haya nacido vivo con un peso igual o menor a 2500 gramos en el periodo comprendido de Enero del 2012 a Diciembre del 2013, en el Hospital General Regional N° 6 (HGR#6) del IMSS. El análisis de los datos obtenidos se llevó a cabo mediante regresión lineal, estadística descriptiva y mediante medidas de tendencia central, para variables continuas, variables categóricas, porcentajes y frecuencias. RESULTADOS: El análisis estadístico realizado demostró una asociación lineal significativamente fuerte de 94 %  entre las anormalidades placentarias y el RCIU (p=0.000) IC 95%, DE 127.9-425.0. Así mismo existe asociación lineal moderada entre la Hipertensión arterial crónica y RCIU en un 47% (p= 0.013) IC 95%  DE 25.9-205.5 CONCLUSIONES: Los factores de riesgo maternos son los que se asocian con mayor frecuencia a RCIU en recién nacidos vivos del HGR #6 del IMSS.   INTRODUCTION: The growth of a fetus is considered restricted if the weight is two standard deviations less than that of the mean corresponding to its gestational age, is below the 3rd percentile for the same gestational age, or is stagnant, that is, it does not reach the size that corresponds to it due to its biological potential. OBJECTIVE: To identify the risk factors associated with intrauterine growth restriction in live newborns. METHODS: Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional and retrospective study. The clinical records of mothers whose product was born alive with a weight equal to or less than 2500 grams in the period from January 2012 to December 2013 were reviewed at the Hospital General Regional N ° 6 (HGR # 6) of the IMSS. The analysis of the data obtained was carried out using linear regression, descriptive statistics and measures of central tendency, for continuous variables, categorical variables, percentages and frequencies. RESULTS: The statistical analysis performed showed a strong significant linear association of 94% between placental abnormalities and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) (p = 0.000) 95% CI, SD 127.9-425.0. Likewise, there is a moderate linear association between chronic arterial hypertension and IUGR in 47% (p = 0.013) 95% CI SD 25.9-205.5 CONCLUSIONS: Maternal risk factors are those most frequently associated with IUGR in live newborns from HGR # 6 of the IMSS.

Background: Intrauterine growth restricted (IUGR) fetuses are at higher risk of developing neonatal complications and also known to develop metabolic syndrome in adult life. So, an early antenatal detection, choosing the optimal time and method of delivery and intervention when required could minimize the risk significantly. Objective: To find out the prenatal outcome and the maternal and placental risk factors. Methods: A prospective study was conducted from January 2010 to January 2019, at a Teaching Hospital. A singleton pregnancy, above 28 weeks of gestation with clinical diagnosis of IUGR and confirmed by ultrasonography were included in the study. The statistical analysis was performed by Statistical Package of Social Sciences (SPSS) 23.0 software. Results: Maternal risk factors like low pregnancy body mass index, preeclampsia, anaemia, hypothyroidism and placental factors like retro placental hemorrhage were mainly responsible for intrauterine growth restriction. Conclusions: The early identification of risk factors and management of the same antenatal is an important issue to prevent adverse prenatal outcomes associated with IUGR.

Background: Intrauterine Growth Restriction is a major neonatal health issue. It is associated with increased risk of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Maternal factors are the major contributing factors of IUGR and studying these factors can help in preventing IUGR and reducing perinatal mortality. The objective is to study the maternal sociodemographic risk factors associated with Intra uterine growth restriction.Methods: This is a Case-control study conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, GMC Thrissur. 115 cases of Intra Uterine Growth Restriction were compared to 115 controls. Data was collected by interviewing the mother using structured questionnaire which is pretested and by persual of antenatal records. Intra Uterine Growth Restriction is defined as occurring if the sonographic estimated fetal weight <10th percentile for that gestational age. Chi Square test was used for the analysis of data.Results: Low socio-economic status and malnutrition (BMI<18.5) were significant socio-demographic factors associated with fetal growth restriction. Mean birth weight in IUGR group was 1.8kg compared to 2.9kg in control group. Female fetuses were more commonly associated with IUGR. Intra Uterine Growth Restricted babies had lower Apgar scores (<7) and had more chances for NICU admission.Conclusions: By studying the maternal risk factors associated with Intra Uterine Growth Restriction, we could identify the high-risk group. Early predictive studies could be done in these high-risk pregnancies with focus on good antenatal care to reduce the problem of IUGR in the community.

ABSTRACT Objectives Identifying the factors responsible for the intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is very important, so that early interventions could be suggested to improve the perinatal outcome. The major objectives of this study are to analyze the impact of risk factors, specifically the maternal and placental risk factors, on IUGR and the perinatal outcomes. Materials and methods A prospective study was done on 60 women with IUGR pregnancies from January 2013 to January 2014, at Pushpagiri Medical College Hospital, Thiruvalla. Inclusion criteria were: singleton pregnancies, above the gestational age of 28 weeks, clinically diagnosed IUGR and confirmed subsequently on ultrasound. The statistical analysis was performed utilizing Statistical Package of the Social Sciences (SPSS) software and the significance level of p-value < 0.05 was accepted as statistically significant. Results Statistical analysis shows that maternal risk factors like chronic hypertension, pre-eclampsia, low socioeconomic status of mother, overt diabetes, anemia, gestational diabetes mellitus, low prepregnancy body mass index and hypothyroidism were significantly associated with IUGR. In this study, placental factors like chorangiomatosis, increased syncytial knotting, villous infarction, increased perivillous fibrinoid deposition, accelerated villous maturation, retroplacental hemorrhage and acute chorioamnionitis were significantly associated with IUGR. Conclusion Alertness toward antenatal risk factors for poor pregnancy outcome is important for the optimal management of IUGR pregnancies. Despite antenatal recognition of IUGR and associated risk factors, not all perinatal deaths can be prevented. How to cite this article Thekkedathu VCA.

Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) impairs infant well being and increases susceptibility to later-in-life diseases for mother and child. Our study reveals a novel role for AMPK in vasodilating the myometrial artery (MA) from women residing at high altitude (>2,500 m) with appropriate for gestational age pregnancies but not in IUGR pregnancies at any altitude.

Abstract Low birthweight and decreased postnatal weight gain are known predictors of worse retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) but the role of prenatal growth patterns in ROP remains inconclusive. To distinguish small for gestational age (SGA) from intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) as independent predictors of ROP, we performed a retrospective cohort study of patients who received ROP screening examinations at a level IV neonatal intensive care unit over a 7-year period. Data on IUGR and SGA status, worst stage of and need for treatment for ROP, and postnatal growth was obtained. 343 infants were included for analysis (mean gestational age = 28.6 weeks and birth weight = 1138.2 g). IUGR infants were more likely to have a worse stage of ROP and treatment-requiring ROP (both p < 0.0001) compared to non-IUGR infants. IUGR infants were more likely to be older at worst stage of ROP (p < 0.0001) and to develop postnatal growth failure (p = 0.01) than non-IUGR infants. Independent of postnatal growth failure status, IUGR infants had a 4–5 × increased risk of needing ROP treatment (p < 0.001) compared to non-IUGR infants. SGA versus appropriate for gestational age infants did not demonstrate differences in retinopathy outcomes, age at worst ROP stage, or postnatal growth failure. These findings emphasize the importance of prenatal growth on ROP development.
