Clinical Utility of Nuchal Translucency Measurement in First‐Trimester Ultrasound Screening in a Setting With First‐Tier NIPT for Aneuploidy Screening

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the additional clinical value of nuchal translucency (NT) measurement at the first‐trimester anomaly scan (FTAS) in a setting with first‐tier non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Method This nationwide prospective cohort study, part of the IMITAS study on FTAS implementation, included all pregnancies with increased NT

Moderate Diagnostic Yield of Exome Sequencing in Fetal Growth Restriction: Retrospective Insights

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether invasive genetic testing should be systematically proposed in cases of FGR. Methods Descriptive retrospective study of 159 FGR cases (defined by an estimated fetal growth < 3rd percentile, regardless of Doppler findings) managed at the Toulouse Fetal Medicine Center (TFMC) during 2022–2023.

Clinical Grading of Artificial Intelligence‐Based 3D Fetal Brain Segmentations: A Cross‐Vendor Evaluation of Deep Learning in Fetal Neuroimaging

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the performance of automated (sub)cortical fetal brain segmentation methods on a novel 3D ultrasound dataset acquired from a different vendor, and to introduce a clinician‐focused visual evaluation framework complementary to the widely used Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC).

CHARACTERISTICS OF INDIVIDUALS UNDERGOING PANEL GENETIC TESTING FOR PRIMARY BRAIN TUMORS [PDF]

, 2018
Background. Currently, there are no genetic testing guidelines for patients with a primary brain tumor (PBT). This population is largely understudied in terms of the family history, tumor grade, pathology, and their relation to genetic contribution.

Transthyretin levels in the vitreous correlate with change in visual acuity after vitrectomy [PDF]

, 2009
Background/aim: Little is known about biochemical markers related to change in visual acuity after vitrectomy. The potential use of transthyretin (TTR), a carrier of the retinol/retinol-binding protein, as a biochemical marker protein, was investigated ...

Diagnostic Yield of Post‐Mortem Fetal Micro‐CT for Central Nervous System Abnormalities

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study demonstrates the central nervous system (CNS) abnormalities detected using fetal post‐mortem micro‐focus computed tomography (Micro‐CT), independent of whether the abnormality contributed to the main diagnosis or cause of death.

Brain Pericytes and Wnt/β‐Catenin Signaling Induce Functional Blood–Brain Barrier Phenotype in Human iPSC‐Derived Model

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This study shows that human iPSC‐derived endothelial cells acquire a functional blood–brain barrier phenotype when co‐cultured with brain pericytes and stimulated with CHIR‐99021, a Wnt/β‐catenin activator. This model recapitulates key barrier properties, inflammatory responses, and transcriptomic features of the native human BBB, offering new ...
