First Trial of Fetal Cardiac Nomograms in Northeastern Egypt: Establishing GA-Specific References (14–36 Weeks)
Overview Researchers conducted the first trial to develop normal reference ranges and nomograms for fetal cardiac measurements in the northeastern Egyptian population (Qalyubiyya Governorate). The study focused on pregnancies between 14+6 and 36+6 weeks of gestation, using two-dimensional echocardiography to assess 23 cardiac dimensions in 900 low-risk singleton pregnancies. The aim was to define growth…

Fetal Cardiac Nomograms in Egyptian Pregnancies: A Northeastern Cairo Study
Introduction: Building a reference for fetal heart measurements Understanding normal fetal cardiac development is essential for early detection of subtle heart abnormalities. A recent cross‑sectional study in the north‑eastern Egyptian population (Qalyubiyya Governorate) fills a crucial gap by establishing gestational‑age (GA) specific reference ranges and nomograms for 23 fetal echocardiographic measurements in low‑risk singleton pregnancies.…
