Factors affecting fetal survival after intrauterine transfusion for rhesus isoimmunization.

Intrauterine transfusion of the fetus is described in 165 pregnancies. The overall fetal survival rose from 28 per cent in 1964 to 1969 to 42-5 per cent in 1973 to 1975. Apart from technical complications of the procedure itself, the factors most likely to affect fetal survival were the gestational age and amniotic fluid optical density difference before the first intrauterine transfusion, the birth weight and the cord blood haemoglobin level.

Pregnancy in patients with coeliac disease.

Successful pregnancy can occur both before and after the diagnosis and treatment of gluten-sensitive enteropathy. Abortion and intrauterine growth retardation are the main associated obstetric problems but their incidence may be reduced in the more severe cases by adherence to a strict gluten-free diet and dietary supplements. The present report concerns 60 pregnancies in 25 patients with coeliac disease.
