Diagnostic Accuracy of Ultrasound-Determined Amniotic Fluid Index Versus Measured Amniotic Fluid Volume at Caesarean Delivery and Its Impact on Perinatal Outcomes

Journal of University College of Medicine and Dentistry
Objective: To assess the reliability of ultrasound-based amniotic fluid index (AFI) in estimating amniotic fluid volume by comparing it with intraoperative findings during caesarean section, and to evaluate its association with neonatal clinical ...

A preterm neonate with infantile liver failure syndrome 1 due to leucyl‐tRNA synthetase 1 gene (LARS1) mutations with a histopathologic phenotype of neonatal hemochromatosis

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract We report a case of a premature, growth‐restricted female infant with feeding intolerance and coagulopathy, treated initially for sepsis, who progressed to neonatal acute liver failure and end‐stage hepatic encephalopathy after a prolonged hospitalization with extensive diagnostic evaluation, and was found by autopsy to have histopathologic ...

Understanding the Concept of Self‐Performed Ultrasound: A Scoping Review

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Self‐performed ultrasound is an emerging technology that facilitates adept self‐scans in untrained hands. Inspired by self‐performed imaging in space for more prompt diagnosis and therapy, it has the potential to accurately monitor chronic conditions remotely. However, the lack of supervision and physical restraints can hinder its usability.

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 ...

Hemophilia A: An Ideal Disease for Prenatal Therapy

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemophilia A (HA) is the most common inherited coagulation defect. Current state‐of‐the‐art treatment consists of frequent administration of prophylactic infusions of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) protein or bispecific antibodies that replace the cofactor function of FVIIIa to maintain hemostasis. However, these treatments are far from ideal,

Amniotic fluid brain-specific proteins are biomarkers for spinal cord injury in experimental myelomeningocele [PDF]

, 2005
Myelomeningocele (MMC), the most severe form of spina bifida (SB), causes neurological deficit. Injury to the spinal cord is thought to begin in utero. We investigated whether brain-specific proteins (BSPs) would enable us to monitor the development of ...
