Does severe left heart obstruction with retrograde arch flow influence fetal cerebral and placental blood flow?
Severe left heart obstruction with reversed aortic arch flow is associated with altered fetal cerebral blood flow, and in these conditions, MCA-PI positively correlates with head growth. Anatomical arch obstruction itself may not be a contributing factor to altered MCA flow in fetal HLHS.
Our findings indicate that nisin Z significantly reduced C. albicans growth and transition. These effects may have occurred through ultrastructural modifications of this yeast.
