A Study on the Association between Maternal Childhood Trauma Exposure and Placental-fetal Stress Physiology during Pregnancy [PDF]
It has been found that the effect of childhood trauma (CT) exposure may pass on to the next generation. Scientists have hypothesized that the association between CT exposure and placental-fetal stress physiology is the mechanism. A study was conducted to examine the hypothesis. To examine the association between CT exposure and placental corticotrophin-

Therapeutic advances, including the availability of oral iron chelators and new non-invasive methods for early detection and treatment of iron overload, have significantly improved the life expectancy and quality of life of patients with thalassemia, with a consequent increase in their reproductive potential and desire to have children.

The gut microbiome in pregnancy and pregnancy complications
During gestation, the female body undergoes a number of changes; accordingly, her microbiota also undergoes marked changes throughout the duration of her pregnancy. Some shifts in the microbial community are imprinted even before pregnancy and may affect a woman's ability to conceive.

Social context prevents heat hormetic effects against mutagens during fish development
This study shows that sublethal heat stress protects fish embryos against ultraviolet radiation, a concept known as ‘hormesis’. However, chemical stress transmission between fish embryos negates this protective effect. By providing evidence for the mechanistic molecular basis of heat stress hormesis and interindividual stress communication, this study ...

Pathological pregnancy and psychological symptoms in women [Patološka trudnoća i psihički simptomi u žena] [PDF]
Pregnancy is followed by many physiologic, organic and psychological changes and disorders, which can become more serious in pregnancy followed by complications, especially in women with pathological conditions during pregnancy. The purpose of this study

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors
Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.

Protocol for an Observational Study on the Effects of Giving Births from Unintended Pregnancies on Later Life Physical and Mental Health [PDF]
There has been increasing interest in studying the effect of giving births to unintended pregnancies on later life physical and mental health. In this article, we provide the protocol for our planned observational study on the long-term mental and physical health consequences for mothers who bear children resulting from unintended pregnancies.

Cell‐free DNA aneuploidy score as a dynamic early response marker in prostate cancer
mFast‐SeqS‐based genome‐wide aneuploidy scores are concordant with aneuploidy scores obtained by whole genome sequencing from tumor tissue and can predict response to ARSI treatment at baseline and, at an early time point, to ARSI and taxanes. This assay can be easily performed at low cost and requires little input of cfDNA. Cell‐free circulating tumor
