Postlaser persistent polyhydramnios after resolution of Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome

Pregnancy
Objective Fluid abnormalities should resolve after fetoscopic laser surgery (FLS) for Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS), but polyhydramnios occasionally persists.

Metabolomics Analysis of Amniotic Fluid in Euploid Foetuses with Thickened Nuchal Translucency by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry

Life, 2021
Persistence of a fetal thickened nuchal translucency (NT), one of the most sensitive and specific individual markers of fetal disorders, is strongly correlated with the possibility of a genetic syndrome, congenital infections, or other malformations ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

The Role of Social Determinants in Diagnosis Timing for Fetal Care Center-Eligible Conditions: A Scoping Review

Diagnostics
Timely identification of fetal conditions enables comprehensive evaluation, counseling, postnatal planning, and prenatal treatments. This study assessed the existing evidence on how social determinants of health (SDOH) influence diagnosis timing of fetal

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Monochorionic Diamniotic Twins with Sex Discordance: Case Series

Diagnostics
Background and Clinical Significance: Ultrasonographic diagnosis of twin pregnancies has become routine, with chorionicity playing a crucial role in assessing associated risks. Traditionally, monochorionic (MC) twins were believed to derive from a single

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Fetal Growth Restriction in the Survivor Twin Following Spontaneous Demise in Monochorionic Pregnancy: A Case Report Highlighting Aplasia Cutis

Clinical Case Reports
Aplasia cutis congenita is a rare congenital malformation that may also occur as a complication of single fetal demise in a monochorionic twin pregnancy. Reporting such cases may improve prenatal detection rates in similar cases worldwide.

SFM Fetal Therapy Practice Guidelines: Fetal Medical Therapy

Journal of Fetal Medicine, 2023
AbstractFetal medical therapy encompasses a wide range of pharmacological interventions aimed at preventing, treating, or ameliorating specific pathological conditions in the fetus. In contrast to fetal surgery, fetal medical interventions involve administering drugs either through transplacental transfer (maternal oral, intramuscular or intravenous ...
