Birth defects ....  Obstruction of Urinary tract 2
Posted in 2013
If obstruction is unilateral and the contralateral kidney is fine, then there is not a problem
with kidney function.  The reason that one usually wants to try to fix the situation is to
provide the "insurance" of having two functioning kidneys, because one is plenty.  In the
case of a single kidney, that single kidney increases its function in compensation and can
have as much as 90% of the function that two normal kidneys would have.   Usually a single
kidney has 75-80% of the function of two kidneys.  In this circumstance, the child is
absolutely healthy, with normal growth and development.
Posterior urethral valves is a fairly common defect, and it occurs because a fold or two of
extra tissue grow in the urethra and back up urine flow from the bladder and all the way up
the ureters.  This fold is present from early in kidney development, and so it causes the
urine to back up into the kidneys from the time urine is first made, while the kidneys are still
developing.  Renal dysplasia, same as the lesion discussed above that may occur
independently may occur and in fact, usually does occur, as a result.  This means that the
kidneys are inherently defective and so unblocking the urethra may improve kidney function
somewhat, but it doesn't usually cause kidney function to return to normal.   Even if kidney
function comes back to normal or near normal, the problem with the tubules and inability to
concentrate the urine is quite commonly persistent.  As with primary dysplasia, if the
dysplasia is very, very severe and there is little urine production in utero, then lung
maturation may be affected and cause difficulty after birth.

Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info My memories Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Posted in 2014 Pregnancy can pose serious challenges to sleeping well. Poor quality and too little sleep are common during pregnancy, when many women experience fragmented sleep and symptoms of insomnia. Even women who don’t generally experience sleep problems find that during pregnancy they have difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep, as well as trouble getting enough sleep. We talk a lot about sleep issues for new mothers. But new research   suggests we should be paying more attention to the sleep health of expectant mothers as well. Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center found   links between both the quality and quantity of pregnant women’s sleep and complications at birth, including low birth weight and pre-term births. The link betw

Fibre deficiency during Pregnancy...4

Fiber deficiency during Pregnancy...4 Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info   7...  Why do we need to eat fibre? It used to be called “roughage”, and people tried to get rid of it.  Now we have heard plenty about it, but why do we need fibre in our diet? Dietary fibre is actually a form of  carbohydrate that does not get digested by enzymes in our small intestine, and so its sugar units are not absorbed into the bloodstream.  Dietary fibre is therefore known as ‘non-glyceami"‘. However, fibre has important effects on other nutrients within the small intestine and through effects on the large intestine, where few other nutrients arrive intact.  It has a range of valuable health effects: Smooths out digestion and absorption of glucose and fats in the small intestine.  It reduces the Glycaemic index of a meal. Provides fuel for the healthful or  good bacteria in our large intestine  which in turn benefit us by making Vitamin
