Novel DNA methylation profiles associated with key gene regulation and transcription pathways in blood and placenta of growth-restricted neonates [PDF]
Fetal growth is determined by the feto-placental genome interacting with the maternal in utero environment. Failure of this interplay leads to poor placental development and fetal growth restriction (FGR), which is associated with future metabolic ...

FETAL DISCORDANCY IN MONOCHORIONIC TWINS
Objective: to investigate the predictive value of fetal weight discordance as a risk factor associated with adverse perinatal outcomes. Materials and Methods: 55 patients with monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies with fetal weight discordancy were ...

. One in three monochorionic twins may develop complications during pregnancy. Monochorionic twins, especially monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA), present specific problems caused by the presence of interfetal placental anastomoses.

International standards for early fetal size and pregnancy dating based on ultrasound measurement of crown-rump length in the first trimester of pregnancy. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: There are no international standards for relating fetal crown-rump length (CRL) to gestational age (GA), and most existing charts have considerable methodological limitations.

Perinatal outcomes after radiofrequency ablation for selective fetal reduction in complicated monochorionic pregnancies: a single-center experience [PDF]
Objective Monochorionic (MC) pregnancies are often complicated by shared placental and circulatory structures, resulting in conditions such as twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), selective fetal growth restriction (sFGR), and a twin-reversed arterial ...

FETAL GROWTH RESTRICTION: A GROWTH PATTERN WITH FETAL, NEONATAL AND LONG-TERM CONSEQUENCES
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) or intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) are the terms used for a fetus which has not attained its full growth potential for gestational age.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Selective termination: a life-saving procedure for complicated monochorionic gestations
Monochorionic twin pregnancies are a subset of twin pregnancies that face potential complications related to a shared circulation between the fetuses. These complications are related to anastomotic placental vessels connecting the cardiovascular systems ...

Severe preeclampsia diagnosed at or prior to 34 weeks is an indication for preterm delivery. Many patients with severe preeclampsia develop fetal growth restriction as a result of the placental dysfunction associated with both conditions.
