Reduced exercise capacity is associated with left ventricular systolic dysfunction in long‐term survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem‐cell transplantation

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 5-15, January 2023., 2023
Exercise intolerance is a common complication in long‐term survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem‐cell transplantation. In this study, we found reduced oxygen uptake (VO2peak) by cardio‐pulmonary exercise tests to be associated with left ventricular systolic dysfunction by echocardiography.

Estimate of genetic variants using CNV‐Seq for fetuses with oligohydramnios or polyhydramnios

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
The overall detection rate of clinically significant findings was 8%, with 5.0% in the isolated group and 11.0% in non‐isolated group. Non‐isolated group especially oligohydramnios subgroup is inclined to obtained more pathogenicity genetic anomalies and to terminate their pregnancy outcome.
