Fetal Biometry Assessment with Intergrowth 21St's and Salomon's
Bihoun et al. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2020) 20:492 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12884-020-03183-5 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Fetal biometry assessment with Intergrowth 21st’s and Salomon’s equations in rural Burkina Faso Biébo Bihoun1,2*, Serge Henri Zango1,2, Maminata Traoré-Coulibaly1, Innocent Valea1, Raffaella Ravinetto3, Jean-Pierre Van Geertruyden4, Umberto D’Alessandro5, Halidou Tinto1 and Annie Robert2 Abstract Background: Ultrasound scanning during the 2nd or the 3rd trimester of pregnancy for fetal size disturbances screening is heavily dependent of the choice of the reference chart. This study aimed to assess the agreement of Salomon and the Intergrowth 21st equations in evaluating fetal biometric measurements in a rural area of Burkina Faso, and to measure the effect of changing a reference chart. Methods: Data collected in Nazoanga, Burkina Faso, between October 2010 and October 2012, during a clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of several antimalarial treatments in pregnant women were analyzed. We included singleton pregnancies at 16–36 weeks gestation as determined by ultrasound measurements of fetal bi-parietal diameter (BPD), head circumference (HC), abdominal circumference (AC) and femur length (FL). Expected mean and standard deviation at a given gestational age was computed using equations from Salomon references and using Intergrowth 21st standard. Then, z-scores were calculated and used subsequently to compare Salomon references with Intergrowth 21st standards. Results: The analysis included 276 singleton pregnancies. Agreement was poor except for HC: mean difference − 0.01, limits of agreement − 0.60 and 0.59. When AC was used as a surrogate of fetal size, switching from the reference of Salomon to the standards of Intergrowth 21st increased ten times the proportion of fetuses above the 90th percentile: 2.9 and 31.2%, respectively. -

English language. doi: 10.1386/jac.4.1.99_7 bibliography Jonathan Haynes Long Island University A bibliography of academic work on Nigerian and Ghanaian video films This reckoning of the academic work that has been published on Nigerian and Ghanaian video films does not include theses and dissertations, of which many have been written. I have included as many books on the subject as possible whatever their character, but in order to make the project manage- able, when dealing with articles I have had to try to maintain various distinc- tions: between academic and other kinds of writing, between academic publication and web postings of lectures and conference proceedings, and between articles that have the films as a primary focus and those that merely mention them. I thank the friends and colleagues who have corrected some of my omissions, especially Carmen McCain, Sam Kafewo, Osakue Omoera and Matthias Krings, and beg forgiveness for the rest.

Instead, the IMF decided to postpone its decision on whether to issue the tranche until July, awaiting the approval of at least 19 bills by Parliament, he said. The consti- tutional amendments just passed are part of that required legislation. The main structural changes consist of the introduction within two years of a Higher Judiciary Council to replace the Higher Justice Council in overseeing the approval, removal, transfer or prosecution of all judg- es; the restructuring of the Supreme Court; the introduction of requalification proce- Aleksandr Kosarev/UNIAN dures for judges; the simplification of proce- Prosecutor General of Ukraine Yuriy dures to prosecute judges; and the elimina- Vladimir Gontar/UNIAN Lutsenko announces his latest changes to tion of the president’s authority to create Nadiya Savchenko removes the banner calling for her freedom that had hung in the the state body on May 30, including his new courts and appoint judges.
