Impact of NLRP1 Met1154Val and IL1B variants on gestational malaria: an unexplored role of NLRP1 in inflammasome activation by Plasmodium spp.

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract We hypothesized that variants in inflammasome‐related genes could influence susceptibility to gestational malaria (GM). To test this, we conducted an association study in a cohort of pregnant women from a malaria‐endemic region in northern Brazil, assessing whether specific functional single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in inflammasome genes ...

Heterozygous Beta‐Thalassaemia in Pregnancy: Two Rare Causes of Severe Fetal Anemia Requiring Intrauterine Blood Transfusions

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim In this article, we present two cases of severe fetal hemolytic anemia based on a beta‐thalassaemia trait inherited from a single parent. Results These cases, presented at 20 and 28 weeks' gestation, necessitated intra‐uterine blood transfusions.

Observations related to chronologic and gynecologic age in pregnant adolescents. [PDF]

, 1984
A low chronologic age (less than or equal to 15 years) and low gynecologic age (less than or equal to 2 years) have been considered factors that increase medical complications among adolescent pregnant women. Gynecologic age (GA) is defined in this study

Prenatal Exome Sequencing Identifies Dual Maternal‐Fetal Diagnosis of HbF Mission Bay, a Novel HBG2 Variant Associated With Methemoglobinemia, Hypoxia and Hemolytic Anemia

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prenatal exome sequencing (ES) can establish rare genetic diagnoses in a fetus but may also lead to occult genetic diagnosis in a biological parent. We present a case of dual fetal and maternal diagnosis by prenatal ES, in a fetus with unexplained anemia and in a pregnant patient with sickle cell disease (SCD) and recurrent unexplained hypoxia.

Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out

Diagnostic Accuracy of Estimated Fetal Weight Discordance in Predicting Birthweight Discordance in Monochorionic Twins: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of sonographic estimated fetal weight discordance (EFWD) ≥ 20% in predicting birthweight discordance (BWD) ≥ 20% (i.e., selective fetal growth restriction [sFGR]) in monochorionic (MC) twin pregnancies.
