ISSN: 1471-0528Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: Summary. Serum concentrations of human chorioni gonadotrophin (hCG). schwangerschaftsprotein l(SPl), progesterone and oestradiol were measured in 116 pregnant women experiencing varying degrees of nausea and vomiting or no nausea at all at between 9 and 16 weeks gestation. The patients were categorized into four groups, namely asymptomatic, nausea alone, nausea and vomiting and hyperemesis gravidarum. The distribution of levels for each group were examined in relation to the calculated normal ranges. Statistically higher hCG levels were found in out-patients with nausea alone or nausea and vomiting than in the asymptomatic women. No significant differences were found between the groups for any of the other measured variables, including the progesterone/oestradiol concentration ratio.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1471-0528Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: Blood was collected from 53 normal women in the 38th week of pregnancy. The plasma concentration of unconjugated oestriol, total oestriol and oestriol sulphate was measured and also human placental lactogen and pregnancy specific β1 glycoprotein. The normal spread of the two proteins was found to be slightly smaller than that of the oestrogens. The concentrations of unconjugated and of total oestriol were related; otherwise these substances varied independently of one another. The concentration of these substances was not related to other obstetric parameters.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1471-0528Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: The concentration of unconjugated oestriol, of oestriol glucosiduronate and of oestriol sulphate was measured by a radioimmunoassay technique in the plasma of five normal primigravidae before and during labour. The only consistent changes in the concentration of any of oestriol fractions was a tendency for the concentration of unconjugated oestriol to rise to a peak immediately before the onset of labour.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 1986Staff ViewISSN: 1471-0528Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: Summary. The incidence of early conceptual loss was studied in 27 subfertile women by measuring their serum and urine hCG levels in the luteal phase. Eleven patients eventually had clinically confirmed pregnancies, nine of whom had had significant hCG elevations in previous menstrual cycles. In the remaining 16 patients, who have so far failed to achieve a clinical pregnancy, only three had had elevated hCG results. Thus ‘apparent’ early conceptual loss in non-pregnancy cycles was found to be more often associated with the fertile group of patients.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1471-0528Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: We used a pregnancy specific-β-glycoprotein (SP1) radioimmunoassay to monitor 72 menstrual cycles of 38 apparently subfertile women who were trying to become pregnant. Blood samples were taken up to day 42 from the start of the previous menstrual cycle. Using serum SP1 levels greater than 6μg/1 as indicative of pregnancy, we obtained 16 positive results of which 11 were later confirmed by a human chorionic gonadotrophin haemagglutination pregnancy test. Three of the five women whose pregnancies were not confirmed had a subsequent history of spontaneous abortion.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1439-0426Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyAgriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, NutritionNotes: The processing of 232 common carp Cyprinus carpio made it possible to study the correlation between gonad maturation and filleting yield. The study was undertaken between April and August 1992 and was carried out on 4-year-old carp cultured in extensive ponds. Morphological parameters were recorded and relations between total weight and length, biomass of fillet, and biomass of gonad were determined. The histology of male and female gonads was examined in relation to the gonadosomatic index (GSI: up to 16% for females and less than 11% for males) and condition indices (total K or somatic K1). Filleting yields (32–36% of the total weight) decreased for females just prior to spawning and corresponded to a decline of K1. A rematuration phenomenon was observed, although females weighing less than 1200g were still immature. We suggest avoiding the filleting of large females before spawning and suggest estimating the date of appearance of this stage by referring to the positive correlation established in this paper between the number of degree-days and total fish weight.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 1996Staff ViewISSN: 1439-0426Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyAgriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, NutritionNotes: The Eurasian perch Perca fluviatilis larviculture can be divided into three major areas: the ontogeny of the digestive system, the nutritional requirements and, the growth, production and cannibalism in different culture systems. Ontogeny of digestive system of larvae and juveniles, i.e., the morphological and histological characteristics of the digestive system (including the digestive tract, liver, pancreas and pyloric caeca), is described from hatching up to 1-month-old. Preliminary data on proteolytic activities (pepsin, trypsin and chymotrypsin) during larval growth and weaning on dry diet are also provided. The effects of diet (type of live prey, live food vs. dry or mixed diet) on survival and growth of perch are compared and discussed. In many perch larvae, mouth size constitutes a limiting factor to an optimal utilization of Artemia nauplii from hatching onwards. However, this diet can support satisfactory survival and growth in larger larvae, usually obtained from large breeders. Although perch larvae ingest dry food after yolk sac absorption, survival and growth rates are very low at that stage, compared with results obtained with live food and mixed diet. Weaning experiments performed at different larval and juvenile body weights demonstrated that fish can be trained to accept and to use a dry diet efficiently as a unique food supply starting at 50 mg. Some data related to the nutritional requirements (feeding level, dietary protein, fatty acids) of perch larvae are provided. Juvenile production in different culture conditions (fertilized ponds, green water tanks, recirculated system) indicated that the optimal system for the production of weaned fry was the semiintensive one. In this method, combining an enhanced production of natural plankton and a regular supply of Artemia nauplii and dry food after 44 days of rearing, survival rate varied from 9.2 to 38.6% and body weight from 350 to 950 mg, depending on temperature and stocking densities (400–4000 eyed eggs m−2).Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1439-0426Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyAgriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, NutritionNotes: Experiments were performed to test the growth and survival of perch larvae fed with Artemia spp. nauplii and to determine the most advantageous time of first feeding. During a first experiment, perch larvae were divided into groups according to their hatching dates. Daily ingestion of Artemia spp. nauplii began significantly 2 days after mass larvae hatching. By day 7, the daily prey acceptance was over 75% among the separate larvae groups. During a second 14-day feeding experiment, larvae fed after a 2- or a 3-day delay showed the best growths: 12.5 mm and 13.7 mg. There was no significant difference (P 〉 0.05) among survival rates (85.3%) of perch larvae fed after a 1-, 2- or 3-day delay.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -
