Moderate Diagnostic Yield of Exome Sequencing in Fetal Growth Restriction: Retrospective Insights
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether invasive genetic testing should be systematically proposed in cases of FGR. Methods Descriptive retrospective study of 159 FGR cases (defined by an estimated fetal growth < 3rd percentile, regardless of Doppler findings) managed at the Toulouse Fetal Medicine Center (TFMC) during 2022–2023.

Disturbed Correlation Between Arterial Resistance and Pulsatility in Glaucoma Patients [PDF]
PURPOSE: (i) To investigate whether pulsatility index (PI) and mean flow velocities (MFV) are altered in glaucoma patients. (ii) To evaluate the significance of PI in retrobulbar autoregulation capacity.

Optimal umbilical artery Doppler chart for predicting placenta‐mediated fetal growth restriction
ABSTRACT Objective To compare the predictive accuracy of selected umbilical artery (UA) pulsatility index (PI) reference charts for outcomes associated with placenta‐mediated fetal growth restriction (FGR). Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of individuals with a singleton pregnancy who underwent UA Doppler assessment ≥ 20 weeks' gestation ...

Long-Term Serial Follow-Up of Pulmonary Artery Size and Wall Shear Stress in Fontan Patients [PDF]
Pulmonary arterial (PA) flow is abnormal after the Fontan operation and is marked by a lack of pulsatility. We assessed the effects of this abnormal flow on the size and function of the PA’s in Fontan patients in long-term serial follow-up.

Cerebroplacental ratio and acidemia to the birth in placental insufficiency detected before 34th week's gestation [PDF]
OBJETIVO: avaliar a hipótese de que a relação cerebroplacentária (RCP) fetal relaciona-se com acidemia no nascimento, em gestações complicadas pela insuficiência placentária detectada antes da 34ª semana de gestação.

ABSTRACT Background Pre‐eclampsia is a leading cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. There are several determinants of individual pregnant women's risk of developing pre‐eclampsia, including biomarkers and ultrasound markers. Objective A conceptual framework to collate and summarise the extensive body of literature on biomarkers ...

Impaired Poststenotic Aortic Pulsatility After Hemodynamically Ideal Coarctation Repair in Children [PDF]
Using echocardiographic quantification of aortic pulsatility distal to the site of the surgical anastomosis, we evaluated whether the preoperatively impaired poststenotic aortic pulsatility returned to normal after repair of coarctation with a ...

Internal iliac and uterine arteries Doppler ultrasound in the assessment of normotensive and chronic hypertensive pregnant women [PDF]
The objective of this work was to compare Doppler flows pulsatility index (PI) and resistance indexes (RI) of uterine and internal iliac arteries during pregnancy in low risk women and in those with stage-1 essential hypertension.
