The 'brain shadowing sign': a novel marker of fetal craniosynostosis

, 2016
Introduction: The prenatal diagnosis of fetal craniosynostosis is challenging, especially in single-suture cases. When sutures are obliterated, sound waves fail to penetrate the cortical bone, creating an evident acoustic shadow on the underlying brain ...

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

Dichorionic diamniotic heterotopic twin gestation with cesarean section scar implantation and placenta increta

Radiology Case Reports, 2023
Heterotopic cesarean scar pregnancy is an extremely rare form of pregnancy and is defined as an intrauterine pregnancy coexisting with an ectopic pregnancy implanted in the cesarean scar.

Identification of a Shiga toxin A‐derived peptide internalized into Gb3 receptor‐bearing cells via interaction with the Shiga toxin B subunit

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

Machine learning in fetal cardiology: what to expect

, 2020
In fetal cardiology, imaging (especially echocardiography) has demonstrated to help in the diagnosis and monitoring of fetuses with a compromised cardiovascular system potentially associated with several fetal conditions.

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

, 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.

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.

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.

Case with a Nonreassuring Fetal Status Induced by Massive Hematemesis due to Mallory-Weiss Tear That Required Emergency Cesarean Section at 38 Weeks’ Gestation

Case Reports in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2015
We describe a rare case of Mallory-Weiss tear with massive hematemesis at 38 weeks’ gestation. A 35-year-old woman presented with epigastralgia followed by massive hematemesis.
