    THE EFFECT OF MATERNAL POSTURE, MEALS AND TIME OF DAY ON FETAL MOVEMENTS (1979)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    BJOG 86 (1979), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1471-0528
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: During the last 3 to 4 months of their pregnancies, six healthy mothers provided a daily record of their own activity together with the amount of fetal movement. Fetal movement increased throughout most of the daytime to reach a peak in the evening. The mothers detected most movement when they were lying, less when they were sitting and least when they were standing. Later in the day the mothers were less likely to be standing and more likely to be sitting; when fetal movement was measured with the mother in the sitting posture, more movement occurred as the day progressed. Mealtimes did not have any effect upon movement. Some implications of these findings, both for the assessment of fetal well-being and for theories of the development of circadian rhythms in the infant, are discussed.

    Notes: Summary Recent work concerning the number, site(s) and means of adjustment to the 24-h day of internal clocks is reviewed. Work on humans is considered wherever possible though much of the work involving ablation and in vitro techniques necessarily involves other species, particularly rodents. It is concluded that, though recent advances have been impressive and present techniques appear likely to continue to produce results and stimulate discussion, more attention should be directed to considering the circadian system as a whole rather than as an assemblage of individual components.

    Notes: [Auszug] SIR—The recent comments of Winfree1, together with the anecdotal data from Woodruff and Ford3, raise the issues of whether adjustment to a new time-zone can be promoted by behavioural changes (including meals and exercise) and whether this process of adjustment can begin during the flight ...
