Neonatal outcomes associated with time from a high fetal blood lactate concentration to operative delivery

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2023
Introduction Adjunctive technologies to cardiotocography intend to increase the specificity of the diagnosis of fetal hypoxia. If correctly diagnosed, time to delivery could affect neonatal outcome.

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Assessing signal loss, accuracy, and acceptability of an ambulatory fetal electrocardiography with cardiotocography in the antepartum and intrapartum phases

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica
Introduction Electronic fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring is integral to antepartum and intrapartum care to detect fetal compromise, reducing neonatal morbidity and mortality. Conventional wired cardiotocography (CTG) limits mobility, birthing positions,

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

Intrapartum CTG characteristics associated with isolated single umbilical artery in term fetuses: A matched case–control study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica
Introduction Isolated single umbilical artery (iSUA) is associated with a fivefold increased risk for perinatal mortality, even though placental blood flow is not reduced compared to healthy fetuses. In recent work, the umbilical cord was shown to have a

Optimizing photoactivation of PA‐mCherry for optical pooled CRISPR screens

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Photoactivatable PA‐mCherry finds widespread use to optically tag individual cells. However, confocal 405 nm UV laser‐scanning (normal scan) is much less efficient than widefield UV illumination, limiting the use of PA‐mCherry on confocal instruments. We remedy this limitation by reporting that rapid and repeated confocal scanning with a low‐intensity,

Sensors for Fetal Hypoxia and Metabolic Acidosis: A Review

Sensors, 2018
This article reviews existing clinical practices and sensor research undertaken to monitor fetal well-being during labour. Current clinical practices that include fetal heart rate monitoring and fetal scalp blood sampling are shown to be either ...

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

Effect of constructivist teaching in the improvement of midwives’ interpretation ability in fetal monitor graphs

BMC Medical Education
Background Accurate interpretation of fetal monitoring results is particularly significant in dealing with safety issues during delivery. There are different education programs on fetal monitoring and the education effects are unsatisfactory.
