Chapter 50, Problem 3ITD
Summary Introduction
To review:
The defect that has more than twice the risk in the multiple-birth group in comparison to the single-birth group.
Introduction:
In Florida, from the year 1996 to 2000, a study was conducted on live births. This study was made on the risk factor of birth defects in children born per 10,000 live births. It was observed that the birth defects had a higher risk value in the multiple-birth group. The prevalence of these birth defects was comparatively lower in the single-birth group.

Data:Total Births: 2,700 Low Birth Weight: 264Mothers with inter-gestational interval < 12 months: 92Mothers with low birth weight with inter-gestational interval < 12 months: 21Mothers with previous HTN: 18Mothers with low birth weight with previous HT: 15
A) Global or absolute risk of low birth weight.B) Relative risk for the factor "inter-gestational interval < 12 months". According to the results obtained, give your opinion as to whether there is an association or not and express it accordingly.C) Relative risk for the factor "mothers with previous HTN". According to the results obtained, give your opinion as to whether or not there is an association and express it accordingly.D) In the case of the factors in which you consider, according to the results obtained, that there is an association, calculate the Attributable Risk (AR) and the Etiological Risk Fraction (ERF), expressing in both cases their significance.
What are the risk factors that led to the death of a pregnant woman who had three delays in a rural area?
Reproductive modes can be defined based on energetic provisioning (lechithotrophy vs. matritrophy) or birth style (ovipary vs. vivipary). Reproductive modes related to birth style mostly fall into clear categories of energetic provisioning. Define the above four reproductive modes based on energetics and style that make them distinct. Be sure to mention WHEN the relevant events related to each occur. Finally, explain why the birth style of ovovivipary less clearly falls into any one of these categories...

- Birth Defects and Multiple Births A woman who carries multiple offspring at the same time increases the risk of some birth defects. FIGURE 42.18 shows the results of Yiwei Tang's study of birth defects reported in Florida from 1W6 to 2000. Tang compared the incidence of various defects among single and multiple births. She calculated the relative risk for each type of defect based on type of birth, and corrected for other differences that might increase risk such as maternal age, income, race, and medical care during pregnancy. A relative risk of less than 1 means that multiple births pose less risk of that defect occurring. A relative risk greater than 1 means multiples are more likely to have a defect. FIGURE 42.18 Prevalence, per 10,000 live births, of various types of birth defects among multiple aria single births. Relative risk for each defect is given after researches adjusted for the motor's age, race, previous adverse pregnancy experience, education, Medicaid participation during pregnancy, as well as the infant's sex and number of siblings. 4.

- Can We Talk About Sex? Abstract: A three–year–old female undergoes elective inguinal hernia repair and unexpectedly is found to have testes in the hernia sacs. A recommendation is made not to disclose the patient’s genotype to her mother. This case study addresses the ethical conflict of whether to disclose the patient’s male genotype to the parent that has been raising the child as female. This case highlights the ethical risks and potential consequences later in life of not disclosing a patient’s CAIS diagnosis and treatment. Conversely, what would the consequences be for disclosing?arrow_forwardFor items 6-13 use the problem set below.A cohort study looks at the relationship between estrogen use and the risk of breast cancer.

She consulted an oncologist about the chance of this being actual breast cancer. Janel was referred for mammography because of a suspiciousbreast mass that has doubled its size over the past 3 months. Lesions were also noted. Among 1000 hypothetical patients with a similar presentation, about 30% are estimated to have actual breast cancer. Assume that mammography has a sensitivity of 98% and 95% specificity for detecting breast cancer. 42.
