A good thickness uniformity was obtained in ICP-RFMS, while a significant decrease in film thickness was observed at r=30mm (erosion zone) in C-RFMS. The c-axis orientation was achieved in all positions in ICP-RFMS, while crystallinity was degraded at r≥25mm in C-RFMS. Low resistivity ρ of the order of 10− ...

Maternal report of reduced fetal movements (RFM) is a means of identifying fetal compromise in pregnancy. In live births RFM is associated with altered placental structure and function. Here, we explored associations between RFM, pregnancy characteristics, and the presence of placental abnormalities ... were divided into three groups: 109 women reporting RFM, 33 women with absent fetal movements (AFM) and 159 who did not report RFM before the diagnosis of stillbirth. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was used to determine associations between RFM/AFM, pregnancy characteristics, placental insufficiency and the classification ...
