Unlocking insights: Validating a comprehensive model for predicting spontaneous preterm delivery and microbial invasion in women facing preterm labor

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Preterm labor is a multifactorial syndrome with diverse etiologies such as infection, inflammation, uteroplacental dysfunction, stress, and immune dysregulation. Identifying women at high risk remains a challenge, and multivariate prediction models have been developed to enhance risk stratification.

Profiling the Bisecting N-acetylglucosamine Modification in Amniotic Membrane via Mass Spectrometry

Genomics, Proteomics & Bioinformatics, 2022
Bisecting N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), a GlcNAc linked to the core β-mannose residue via a β1,4 linkage, is a special type of N-glycosylation that has been reported to be involved in various biological processes, such as cell adhesion and fetal ...

A multicenter analysis of 1364 elective/rescue cerclages in Brazil: Perinatal outcomes, complications, and the role of vaginal progesterone

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate perinatal outcomes in women undergoing cervical cerclage for prevention of preterm birth in Brazilian maternity hospitals. Methods This retrospective cohort study included 1364 women with singleton pregnancies who underwent elective or rescue cervical cerclage between December 2003 and November 2025.

Human mid-gestation amniotic fluid contains interleukin-16 bioactivity [PDF]

, 2009
CD4-positive cells are detectable in the human fetal gastrointestinal tract from 11 weeks of gestation. Interleukin-16 (IL-16) is a chemoattractant for CD4(+) cells and, via fetal swallowing of amniotic fluid, could mediate the influx of CD4(+) cells ...

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

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 ...

Alterations in MicroRNA and Cytokine Expressions in Placental and Amniotic Tissues of COVID‐19 Affected Pregnant Women

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since 2019, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) has been associated with increased risks of preterm birth and placental complications. We prospectively investigated alterations in microRNAs (miRNAs) and cytokines in placental and amniotic tissues from pregnant women with and without COVID‐19 to evaluate the infection's impact on pregnancy ...

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 ...
