Significant correlations were observed between DNA methylation in maternal-umbilical cord pairs (Table 2).
Maternal urinary As metabolites and plasma folate, cobalamin, and homocysteine levels in maternal cord pairs were also measured.
For only one placenta and cord blood pair (sample set 060) the A allele was inherited maternally and was methylated, confirming that the methylation in this domain is inherited in a parent-of-origin manner and not dictated by SNP genotype (Fig. 2).
Maternal and cord blood pairs were collected and concentrations of total As were analyzed for 101 pairs, and As metabolites for 30 pairs.
POP concentrations in 325 mother umbilical cord serum paired samples were analyzed.
Umbilical cord samples paired with postnatal samples were obtained prospectively at the University Hospital of Zurich, Switzerland, between August 2011 and April 2012 in preterm and term newborns in the absence of major neonatal disease, infections or comorbidities [ 13].
38 Within the largest groups (arterial cord pH paired with neonatal mortality and neonatal morbidity) we explored the reasons for heterogeneity using metaregression, planned a priori in keeping with published recommendations.
Using this method, we collected 537 maternal peripheral blood-cord blood pairs to investigate HBV transplacental transmission.
With the Cord Project, a pair of former Googlers are aiming to encourage people to use their smartphones for something a little unusual — talking to other people.
Living arthropods have paired main nerve cords running along their bodies below the gut, and in each segment the cords form a pair of ganglia from which sensory and motor nerves run to other parts of the segment.
All enrolled cases will be subject to immediate double cord clamping and paired cord blood sampling (umbilical artery and vein), which are prerequisites for accurate diagnosis of metabolic acidosis.
