Intra-Abdominal Hypertension Causes Bacterial Growth in Lungs: An Animal Study.

abstract：:Background. With the introduction of three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound it has become possible to measure volumes. The relative increase in embryonic volume (EV) is much larger than that of the crown-rump length (CRL) over the same time period. We examined whether EV is a better parameter to determine growth restrictio...
