(n¼3), IGA resulted in a negative prenatal growth score in two (67%) cases, with a normal neonatal growth score in all three cases. In the one no IUGR/yes SGA case, IGA did not identify prenatal or neonatal growth pathology. CONCLUSION: We present the first study using IGA to evaluate pathological fetal and neonatal growth in gastroschisis cases. While we found general agreement between IGA and conventional US methods, IGA was able to identify normal growth and pathologic growth restriction missed by conventional methods in the prenatal and neonatal periods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
