METHODS: a total of 680 liveborn children resulted from 511 couples submitted to ICSI from January, 1999 to December, 2002. Data collection of the children was performed through standardized questionnaire and clinical examination. Of the 511 couples, 366 had been contacted for a sampling of 371 gestations. Of the 680 liveborn, 520 had been evaluated, 250 of them (48.1%) through questionnaire and 270 (51.9%) through questionnaire and physical examination. Two hundred and fifty children were from singleton pregnancies and 270 from multiple pregnancies. Malformations were classified according to the 10th revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health. Only MCM were analyzed in this study. The incidence of MCM was compared with that of the general population obtained by the Latin American ...

Contudo, nesses anos de aplicação clínica tem havido preocupação com a saúde das crianças concebidas através da técnica, em particular quanto à possibilidade de malformação congênita. Diferentes trabalhos foram publicados para avaliar as crianças de FIV. Contudo, de modo geral o resultado foi considerado satisfatório, não tendo sido conclusivos os estudos sobre o aumento na incidência de malformações congênitas. Por outro lado, o advento da inseminação intracitoplasmática de espermatozóides (ICSI), dando possibilidde de ter filhos a indivíduos com diminuição acentuada na contagem de espermatozóides, ou mesmo com azoospermia, exacerbou os questionamentos sobre a segurança. Os primeiros trabalhos visando avaliar malformações congênitas nas crianças nascidas por ICSI não conseguiram mostrar incidência maior. No entanto, estudos mais recentes, co...

This condition was induced by feeding rats an iron-deficient diet for 30 days from the time of weaning. Anaemia was indicated by the lowering of blood haemoglobin levels. Statistically significant decreases in myocardial noradrenaline levels associated with cardiac hypertrophy, as revealed by increased wet heart weight and increased size of cardiac muscle cells, were observed in anaemic rats compared with controls.

Myocardial hypertrophy is a morphological adaptive response to chronic work overload imposed on t... more Myocardial hypertrophy is a morphological adaptive response to chronic work overload imposed on the heart. It has been categorized into two distinct basic types: concentric hypertrophy, occurring in response to a sustained pressure overload in which wall thickness increases without chamber enlargement, and eccentric hypertrophy, in response to a chronic volume overload in which chamber volume enlarges without a relative increase in its wall thickness. It should be emphasized, in this context, that these adjectives are somewhat confusing, since the hypertrophy observed is not eccentric in the fashion often seen in the left ventricle of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In fact, the hypertrophy is concentric in both instances, but is associated with an increase in chamber volume when described as eccentric, yet occurring with a maintained volume when said to be concentric. In rats made anemic by iron deficiency, the volume overloaded heart achieves an adaptive increase in mass characterized as hypertrophy occurring in the setting of dilated ventricle. This so-called eccentric hypertrophy depends on catecholamines as possible signals for myocardial growth, and progresses with preserved ultrastructure and contractile performance of the cardiac muscle. A gradually imposed volume overload results in a harmonious growth of the heart (it retains a relative normal shape, becoming a magnified normal heart), probably mediated by release of catechohunines into the myocardium. This process resembles the normal cardiac growth in response to the obligatory volume load imposed by an increasing cardiac output (greater metabolic demands) and blood volume. On the other hand, in the rat heart overloaded in terms of pressure by constriction of the abdominal aorta, an adaptive augmentation in mass is characterized as concentric hypertrophy (mural hypertrophy without any change in volume), in which catechohunines may not play a dominant role. This progresses with altered ultrastructure and contractile function of the myocardium. The character, degree, and duration of the work induced by an overload, itself produced by volume and pressure, in isolation or combined, therefore plays a critical role in determining the course of the process of hypertrophy. We argue that it is a plausible hypothesis that the
