Congenital malformations among offspring exposed in utero to progestins, Olmsted County, Minnesota, 1936-1974.

Comparison of a cohort of 988 offspring exposed in utero to exogenous progestins with a matched cohort of unexposed offspring did not result in detection of an association of congenital anomalies with exposure. The conclusions are based primarily on outcomes of pregnancy with exposure to progesterone and 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate, and may not apply to androgenic progestins. Offspring exposed to combinations of progestins and estrogens were excluded from this study and may have a different distribution of anomalies.

A controlled study of silver nitrate prophylaxis and the incidence of nasolacrimal duct obstruction.

The caustic property of silver nitrate prompted a double-blind, controlled study of a possible causal relationship between use of the agent for prophylaxis against ophthalmic infection in the newborn and the subsequent development of nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Follow-up of 145 newborns randomized either to 1% silver nitrate prophylaxis or to 1% tetracycline prophylaxis revealed no statistically significant difference in the incidence of nasolacrimal duct obstruction between the two groups at either two weeks or two months of age. It is concluded that silver nitrate prophylaxis does not predispose to nasolacrimal duct obstruction in the newborn.
