Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

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

open access: yesActa 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

Sensors for Fetal Hypoxia and Metabolic Acidosis: A Review

open access: yesSensors, 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 ...

Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders: strategies to address information gaps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) is emerging as a public health issue in Australia. Health-care providers and policy makers need accurate and timely data in a useable format to monitor and prevent FASD.

Animal models of fetal growth restriction: Considerations for translational medicine.

open access: yes, 2015
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is the failure of a fetus to reach its full genetic growth potential. It occurs in up to 8% of pregnancies, and after premature birth is the second leading cause of infant mortality and morbidity.

Patient therapy outcome modeling in cancer organoids is improved by cancer‐associated fibroblasts and organoid assembly convolution

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived organoids (PDOs) from pancreatic, colorectal, and gastric cancers were used to evaluate standard and experimental therapies. Incorporating cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) into organoid cultures improved patient therapy outcome prediction.

Fetal monitoring during labor

open access: yes, 2009
For three decades, cardiotocography has been the basic technique for fetal surveillance during labor, but its impact on fetal well-being remains controversial.

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

open access: yesActa 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,

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

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

open access: yesBMC 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.
