Temporal Changes in Fetal and Maternal Parameters in Early‐Onset Fetal Growth Restriction: A Multicenter, Retrospective Cohort Study

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective(s) Timing of birth is complex in early‐onset fetal growth restriction (FGR) and the literature is limited regarding the exact sequence of changes in antenatal parameters. This study aimed to examine this sequence in a large early‐onset FGR cohort. Design Multicenter, retrospective cohort study.

Angiogenic Biomarkers and Neonatal Outcomes in Suspected Preeclampsia: Retrospective Cohort Study

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Placental growth factor (PlGF) and soluble fms‐like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt1) are two biomarkers associated with placental function and the sFlt‐1/PlGF ratio is frequently used for risk assessment and prediction of preeclampsia in pregnancy. Objective To assess the association between elevated sFlt‐1/PlGF ratio and adverse neonatal outcomes in

Imaging of Abdominal Complications in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common paediatric malignancy and remains one of the most common causes of cancer‐related death in children and adolescents. Five‐year overall survival rates now exceed 90% with current multidrug chemotherapeutic regimens. This improvement, coupled with the toxicity of chemotherapy, has led to the
