Prenatal Diagnosis of Sandhoff Disease by Enzyme Analysis of Chorionic Villus Sample

open access: yesGynecology Obstetrics & Reproductive Medicine, 2008
OBJECTIVE AND STUDY DESIGN: The prenatal diagnosis of Sandhoff disease (SD) was performed in 14 fetuses of families by the analysis of chorionic villus sample obtained at 11-14 weeks of gestation. The diagnosis was based on the absence or near-absence of

Genetics in Heterotaxy: A Case Series and Literature Review on DNAH9, PKD1L1, MMP21, and GDF1

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 110, Issue 5, Page 574-583, November 2026.
Integrating trio‐based genomic sequencing with detailed clinical evaluation across seven French–Vietnamese heterotaxy cases alongside a review of 108 published patients reveals strong genotype–phenotype correlations. Variants in DNAH9, PKD1L1, MMP21, and GDF1 define a broad spectrum from isolated situs inversus to complex conotruncal heart defects and ...

Gestational Changes in Placental Iron Homeostasis are Associated With Ferroptosis‐Associated Redox Signaling and Trophoblast Behavior

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 19, 15 October 2026.
This graphical abstract summarizes gestational changes in placental iron homeostasis and their relationship to ferroptosis‐associated molecular features. In trophoblast cells, experimentally induced sublethal iron‐dependent redox perturbation modulates migration and invasion without causing overt ferroptotic cell death, whereas iron chelation or ...

Effect of invasive tests during pregnancy on perinatal transmission of hepatitis B infection: a scoping review

open access: yesEClinicalMedicine
Summary: Prenatal and intrapartum invasive tests are possible mechanisms of mother to child transmission (MTCT) of hepatitis B virus (HBV). The viral activity can affect the MTCT risk after invasive tests, but the evidence is scarce.

Chorionic villus sampling: what are the risks?

open access: yes, 1995
Once again, chorionic villus sampling (CVS), or placental biopsy as it is sometimes known, has become the subject of public interest. CVS offers a rapid diagnosis for women whose babies are at risk of a genetic or chromosomal abnormality, at earlier ...

EHA Guidelines on the management of children and adults with hemoglobin SC disease

open access: yesHemaSphere, Volume 10, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract HbSC disease is the second most common type of sickle cell disease (SCD) in populations of African origin. Although it is often grouped together with other types of SCD, particularly sickle cell anemia (HbSS), it has unique pathophysiology and a different spectrum of laboratory and clinical features.
