Use of the Abbott i‐STAT®1 point of care device for hCG quantification in early pregnancy
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the use of the Abbott i‐STAT®1 point‐of‐care‐test (POCT) device for measurement of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to support the management of early pregnancy complications in a remote early pregnancy unit (EPU). Methods Women attending the EPU who required an hCG blood test were invited to take part in the study ...

Diagnosis and management of gestational trophoblastic disease: 2025 update
Abstract Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) arises from abnormal placenta and comprises a spectrum of premalignant to malignant disorders. Changes in the epidemiology of GTD have been noted in various countries. In addition to histology, molecular genetic studies can help in the diagnostic pathway.

Nested Selves: Self‐Organization and Shared Markov Blankets in Prenatal Development in Humans
Abstract The immune system is a central component of organismic function in humans. This paper addresses self‐organization of biological systems in relation to—and nested within—other biological systems in pregnancy. Pregnancy constitutes a fundamental state for human embodiment and a key step in the evolution and conservation of our species. While not

Integrating Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) with machine learning creates a powerful platform for cancer management. This approach enhances diagnostic precision through non‐invasive molecular fingerprinting and enables real‐time therapeutic monitoring. By combining SERS with machine learning, it offers a comprehensive solution for early cancer
