Verification of a cryptic t(Y;15) translocation in a male with an apparent 45,X karyotype
Background A rare disease is that an individual with a non-chimeric karyotype of 45,X develops into a male. We explored the genetic aetiology of an infertile male with an apparent 45,X karyotype, which was subsequently verified as cryptic translocation ...

This paper describes the psychological and psychosocial aspects of prenatal care, which are believed to be of particular importance for medical/psychological practice. The emotional changes that "normally" take place during pregnancy are surveyed and evidence is provided linking these changes with potential adverse effect on pregnancy and labour.

Analysis of Biomarkers for Congenital Heart Disease Based on Maternal Amniotic Fluid Metabolomics
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect. The prenatal diagnosis of fetal CHD is completely dependent on ultrasound testing, but only ~40% of CHD can be detected.
