The Expanding Role of Gene Sequencing in Shaping Fetal Therapies: Clinical and Ethical Considerations

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In utero interventions are transformative in addressing genetic and anatomic conditions during fetal development. Next generation sequencing enables early genetic testing, playing a pivotal role in prenatal decision‐making by supporting risk stratification, precise and timely diagnosis, which directly informs eligibility for fetal surgical and

First‐Trimester Down Syndrome Screening in Renal‐Transplanted Pregnant Women: Blood Creatinine Levels Impact False‐Positive Rate

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Over the past few decades, several thousand pregnancies following kidney transplantation have been monitored but few studies have reported on first‐trimester Down syndrome screening. This study aimed to assess the performance of such screening and its relationship with renal function.

Impact of Maternal Body Mass Index (BMI) on the Performance of Non‐Invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT)

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is widely used to screen for common fetal trisomies. Fetal fraction (FF), essential for NIPT accuracy, can be influenced by maternal obesity. This study analyzes NIPT results by obesity status and suggests strategies to improve performance. Method This observational retrospective study evaluated FF,

Liquid biopsy in genitourinary oncology: Current clinical applications and future prospects across prostate, bladder, and renal cancers

open access: yesUroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Liquid biopsy has emerged as a transformative approach in oncology, providing minimally invasive access to tumor‐derived biomarkers with applications across diagnosis, prognosis, therapeutic guidance, and disease monitoring. This literature review synthesizes evidence from 125 studies evaluating circulating tumor DNA, circulating tumor cells ...

Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) in haematological malignancies: Advances in biology and clinical relevance with a focus on multiple myeloma

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Spatial heterogeneity limits the sensitivity of bone marrow biopsies, resulting in false‐negative findings. Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) provide a systemic, stratified monitoring approach, using flow cytometry for high tumour burden and EuroFlow or allele‐specific oligonucleotide PCR (ASO‐PCR) for minimal residual disease to enable early relapse ...

Cell-free DNA release by mouse placental explants.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Although suggested that "fetal" cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is derived from trophoblast cells, the exact origin is unclear. The studies in this report sought to demonstrate that placental tissue releases cfDNA in parallel with cell death, that the size range ...
