Anesthesia for fetal operative procedures: A systematic review

Frontiers in Pain Research, 2022
ObjectiveThe anesthetic management of fetal operative procedures (FOP) is a highly debated topic. Literature on fetal pain perception and response to external stimuli is rapidly expanding. Nonetheless, there is no consensus on the fetal consciousness nor

Clinical performance of sFlt‐1/PlGF ratio triage in suspected pre‐eclampsia: A prospective, observational multicenter diagnostic‐triage study in South Africa (TsHEPPO study)

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the diagnostic and short‐term predictive performance of the soluble fms‐like tyrosine kinase‐1/placental growth factor (sFlt‐1/PlGF ratio) in South African women with suspected pre‐eclampsia (PE), comparing thresholds of ≥ 33 and ≥ 38 in a predominantly African population.

Prenatal diagnosis of vasa previa presenting as amniotic band. ‘A not so innocent amniotic band’ [PDF]

Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1996
AbstractWe describe a case in which the early antepartum diagnosis of vasa previa was made in an asymptomatic patient by means of color Doppler ultrasonography. A woman, gravida 3 para 1 at 22 weeks' gestation, was diagnosed as having an anterior low‐lying placenta, a velamentous cord insertion and an amniotic band with vessels traversing the internal ...

Point‐Of‐Care Ultrasound for the Assessment of the Cerebroplacental Ratio in Near‐Term Pregnancies: An Agreement Study With Conventional Ultrasound

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
In 80 singleton pregnancies at term, handheld point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS) was compared with conventional ultrasound for fetal Doppler assessment. Umbilical artery PI, middle cerebral artery PI, and cerebroplacental ratio showed agreement between devices. Between‐device variability was comparable to intra‐observer repeatability, supporting handheld

Minimally Invasive Fetoscopic Resection of Life-Threatening Amniotic Band Constrictions in a Human Fetus at 22 + 2 Weeks of Gestation Complicated by Subtotal Chorioamniotic Separation and Partial Placental Abruption

Children
Amniotic band syndrome is a constrictive phenomenon in fetal development that can provoke limb autoamputation, malformation, trunk division, and umbilical cord strangulation.

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Newborn with amniotic band sequence

Clinical Case Reports, 2023
Key Clinical MessageAmniotic band sequence (ABS) should be on the differential for newborns with limb defects. ABS is diagnosable prenatally with prenatal ultrasound; however, there are cases where the diagnosis of ABS is made only after delivery of the newborn.AbstractAmniotic band sequence (ABS) is an uncommon congenital disorder where strands of ...

Ingrown Toenails in Infants and Children: Developmental Variants and Age‐Specific Management

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Infantile ingrown toenails are a common pediatric nail disorder encompassing a spectrum of developmental, anatomical, and mechanical conditions, including congenital malalignment of the great toenail (CMGT), hypertrophy of the lateral nail folds, distal nail embedding, and early inflammatory forms of onychocryptosis.

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 ...

Significance of fibrotic bands in utero - Amniotic band sequence with limb body wall complex: A rare case of fetal autopsy

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2015
Amniotic band sequence (ABS) includes a wide spectrum of abnormalities resulting from entrapment of various fetal parts from a disrupted amnion, ranging from a mere constriction ring affecting a finger to a fatal form called limb body wall complex (LBWC).
