Fertility Preservation
|
D059247 |
[A method of providing future reproductive opportunities before a medical treatment with known risk of loss of fertility. Typically reproductive organs or tissues (e.g., sperm, egg, embryos and ovarian or testicular tissues) are cryopreserved for future use before the medical treatment (e.g., chemotherapy, radiation) begins.

Ferula
|
D005309 |
[A plant species that is one of the sources of asafoetida.
, A plant genus of the family APIACEAE. It contains pungent oils and resins. It is used to flavor curries, as a carminative, and as cat and dog repellent. The occasionally used common name of 'giant fennel' should not be confused with true fennel (FOENICULUM).

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders
|
D063647 |
[A condition occurring in FETUS or NEWBORN due to in utero ETHANOL exposure when mother consumed alcohol during pregnancy. It is characterized by a cluster of irreversible BIRTH DEFECTS including abnormalities in physical, mental, and behavior development (such as FETAL GROWTH RETARDATION; MENTAL RETARDATION; ATTENTION DEFICIT AND DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR DISORDERS) with varied degree of severity in an individual.
, An umbrella term used to describe a pattern of disabilities and abnormalities that result from fetal exposure to ETHANOL during pregnancy. It encompasses a phenotypic range that can vary greatly between individuals, but reliably includes one or more of the following: characteristic facial dysmorphism, FETAL GROWTH RETARDATION, central nervous system abnormalities, cognitive and/or behavioral dysfunction, BIRTH DEFECTS. The level of maternal alcohol consumption does not necessarily correlate directly with disease severity.

Fetal Blood
|
D005312 |
[Blood of the fetus. Exchange of nutrients and waste between the fetal and maternal blood occurs via the PLACENTA. The cord blood is blood contained in the umbilical vessels (UMBILICAL CORD) at the time of delivery.

|
Fetal Death
|
D005313 |
[Death of the developing young in utero. BIRTH of a dead FETUS is STILLBIRTH.
, Drying and shriveling of the fetus that sometimes occurs after the resorption of fluid following fetal death in veterinary animals.

|
Fetal Development
|
D047109 |
[Morphological and physiological development of FETUSES.
, The permanent alteration of tissue structures and functions as a result of fetal environment, either positive or negative.

|
Fetal Diseases
|
D005315 |
[Pathophysiological conditions of the FETUS in the UTERUS. Some fetal diseases may be treated with FETAL THERAPIES.
] |
|
Fetal Distress
|
D005316 |
[A nonreassuring fetal status (NRFS) indicating that the FETUS is compromised (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists 1988). It can be identified by sub-optimal values in FETAL HEART RATE; oxygenation of FETAL BLOOD; and other parameters.

|
Fetal Globulins
|
D060747 |
[Specialized proteins that are preferentially expressed during FETAL DEVELOPMENT.

Fetal Growth Retardation
|
D005317 |
[Failure of a FETUS to attain expected GROWTH.

|
Fetal Heart
|
D005318 |
[The heart of the fetus of any viviparous animal. It refers to the heart in the postembryonic period and is differentiated from the embryonic heart (HEART/embryology) only on the basis of time.
] |
|
Fetal Hemoglobin
|
D005319 |
[The major component of hemoglobin in the fetus. This HEMOGLOBIN has two alpha and two gamma polypeptide subunits in comparison to normal adult hemoglobin, which has two alpha and two beta polypeptide subunits. Fetal hemoglobin concentrations can be elevated (usually above 0.5%) in children and adults affected by LEUKEMIA and several types of ANEMIA.

Fetal Hypoxia
|
D005311 |
[Deficient oxygenation of FETAL BLOOD.
] |
|
Fetal Macrosomia
|
D005320 |
[A condition of fetal overgrowth leading to a large-for-gestational-age FETUS. It is defined as BIRTH WEIGHT greater than 4,000 grams or above the 90th percentile for population and sex-specific growth curves. It is commonly seen in GESTATIONAL DIABETES; PROLONGED PREGNANCY; and pregnancies complicated by pre-existing diabetes mellitus.

Fetal Membranes, Premature Rupture
|
D005322 |
[Spontaneous tearing of the membranes surrounding the FETUS any time before the onset of OBSTETRIC LABOR. Preterm PROM is membrane rupture before 37 weeks of GESTATION.
