Tumor‐educated platelets in cancer diagnostics and prognostics: A critical appraisal and roadmap for clinical translation

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Tumor‐educated platelets (TEPs) are emerging as a compelling frontier in liquid biopsy, functioning as dynamic, systemic sensors that sequester and process tumor‐derived biomolecules. This interaction imprints an integrated molecular signature of malignancy—spanning the transcriptome, proteome, lipidome, and crucially, the captured genome ...

Evaluating predictive values of umbilical cord arterial lactate for adverse newborn outcomes among term‐births in northern Uganda: A cross sectional analytical study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 408-420, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Birth asphyxia is one of the leading causes of death for neonates worldwide. Lack of an objective cost effective test to predict poor newborn outcomes at birth affects the ability to respond appropriately. This study determined predictive values of umbilical cord arterial lactate in relation to adverse neonatal outcomes. Methods This

Maternal morbidity following a trial of labor after cesarean birth: A scoping review of operative vaginal birth compared with cesarean birth in the second stage of labor

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Increased use of operative vaginal birth (OVB; forceps and vacuum) has been proposed as a strategy to avoid cesarean birth (CB) among individuals who elect a trial of labour after CB (TOLAC). The relative maternal safety of OVB and CB in individuals with a TOLAC is poorly understood. Objective To summarize the available evidence and

Machine learning‐based prediction of large‐for‐gestational‐age neonates in diabetic and non‐diabetic pregnancies

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study determines whether a machine‐learning model integrating sonographic biometry with maternal clinical parameters improves prediction of large‐for‐gestational‐age (LGA) compared with Hadlock's EFW formula. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study including all singleton live births at ≥32 gestational weeks at a ...
