Amniotic Band Syndrome [PDF]

Journal of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, 1994
Amniotic band syndrome (ABS) is an uncommon, nonrecurrent cause of fetal malformations of the visceral region, craniofacial region, and extremities. Although the cause of ABS is still debated, accepted theories about why this syndrome occurs are discussed.

A rare case report of amniotic band syndrome associated with gastroschisis and limb body wall complex [PDF]

, 2023
The amniotic band syndrome can cause a wide range of anomalies and the most common associated anomalies include amputations, constriction bands, encephalocele, acrania, syndactyly, craniofacial defects, club feet and cleft lip.

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...

Mirror Syndrome (Ballantyne Syndrome): Prenatal Diagnosis, Pathophysiology, and the Role of Fetal Therapy—A Narrative Review

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mirror syndrome is a rare maternal–fetal condition associated with fetal hydrops and a high risk of adverse maternal and fetal perinatal outcomes. Its diagnosis is challenging due to the lack of standardized diagnostic criteria and its clinical and biochemical overlap with preeclampsia.

Agreement between cardiac cycle time intervals and myocardial velocities measured by automated analysis of color tissue Doppler cine loops and by manual tracing of spectral pulsed‐wave tissue Doppler waveforms of sheep fetal heart under normal and pathological conditions: An experimental study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Automated cTDI in sheep fetuses provided reproducible measurements of myocardial velocities and heart rate that align well with manual pulsed‐wave TDI. For cardiac cycle duration metrics, the two modalities are not interchangeable. These findings support that automated cTDI is well suited for longitudinal assessment under both physiological and ...

Periodontitis and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes: Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to describe mechanisms linking periodontal diseases in pregnancy with adverse pregnancy outcomes. ABSTRACT Periodontal diseases, including both gingivitis and periodontitis, occur commonly among pregnant individuals. Both gingivitis and periodontitis are associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) such as early ...

Beyond Deterministic Fetal Programming: Intrauterine Exposures and the Multifactorial Origins of Adiposity

Obesity Reviews, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Excess adiposity is not a recently developed problem but has existed since at least the upper Paleolithic, allowing evolutionary selection pressures to adapt the physiology of the pregnant woman and the feto‐placental unit for maternal and fetal protection.

Co‐Occurring Non‐Cardiac Congenital Anomalies Among Cases With Congenital Heart Defects

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 9, Page 1953-1972, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Cases with congenital heart defects (CHD) often have other associated anomalies. The aim of this investigation was to assess the prevalence and the types of co‐occurring anomalies in CHD in a well‐defined population. The anomalies co‐occurring with CHD were ascertained in all live births, stillbirths and terminations of pregnancy for fetal ...

Premature Ductus Arteriosus Constriction and Pulmonary Trunk Dilation in a Case of Non‐Immune Hydrops Fetalis With Trisomy 21

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Premature constriction of the ductus arteriosus accompanied by the dilation of the pulmonary trunk constitutes a rare congenital heart anomaly that may be underestimated and can result in fetal hydrops and ultimately death if not treated; therefore, it necessitates fetal post‐mortem evaluation in all cases of legal abortion or fetal death.
