Genetic association of fetal-hemoglobin levels in individuals with sickle cell disease in Tanzania maps to conserved regulatory elements within the MYB core enhancer. [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Common genetic variants residing near upstream regulatory elements for MYB, the gene encoding transcription factor cMYB, promote the persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) into adulthood. While they have no consequences in healthy individuals,

Ultrasound evidence of early fetal growth restriction after maternal malaria infection. [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: Intermittent preventive treatment (IPT), the main strategy to prevent malaria and reduce anaemia and low birthweight, focuses on the second half of pregnancy. However, intrauterine growth restriction may occur earlier in pregnancy. The aim of

Doppler middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity measurement as diagnostic tool for fetal anemia after in-utero transfusions in red blood cell alloimmunisation [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2020 Background/Aim. Doppler sonography of fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV) can be used to predict fetal anemia and the need for in utero intravascular transfusion (IUIT) in red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunisation pregnancies.
