Periodontitis and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes: Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to describe mechanisms linking periodontal diseases in pregnancy with adverse pregnancy outcomes. ABSTRACT Periodontal diseases, including both gingivitis and periodontitis, occur commonly among pregnant individuals. Both gingivitis and periodontitis are associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) such as early ...

UCINet: A Multi-Task Network for Umbilical Coiling Index Measurement in Obstetric Ultrasound

Algorithms
The umbilical coiling index (UCI), which quantifies the degree of vascular coiling in the umbilical cord, is a crucial indicator for assessing fetal intrauterine development and predicting perinatal outcomes.

Effects of 14 days of head‐down bed rest with or without exercise, and subsequent recovery on bone turnover, density and structure in older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bed rest accelerates bone loss and may exacerbate skeletal fragility. This study examined the effects of 14 days of head‐down tilt bed rest (HDBR) with or without exercise, and subsequent recovery, on bone turnover, density and structure in older adults. Twenty‐two healthy older adults (55–65 years) completed the HDBR protocol.

Umbilical coiling index: Revisiting an underutilized perinatal risk marker

Philippine Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology
Umbilical cord coiling, a physiological adaptation that safeguards fetal blood flow, has drawn renewed attention as a potential marker of perinatal risk.

TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains in the regulation of vascular function

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains. Calcium influx or calcium release from the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) activates TMEM16A channels through interactions with regulatory proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells or endothelial cells. TMEM16A channel activation drives chloride efflux,

Correlation between antenatal and postnatal coiling index and its role in prediction of perinatal outcome: A prospective cohort study

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: The umbilical cord has pivotal role in the development, well-being, and survival of fetus and is vulnerable to kinking, torsion, and compression affecting perinatal outcome adversely.

Hypoxia and the cytoskeleton

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic outlining the activation of hypoxia‐sensitive pathways, the influence of hypoxia and associated pathways on the cytoskeleton, and the impact of these on disease progression. Abstract A highly‐regulated and dynamic cytoskeleton is vital for functional cellular physiology and the maintenance of homeostasis.

Human placental exposure to pollutant nanoparticles: uptake, translocation and functional impact

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to pollutant nanoparticles has been increasingly investigated due to concerns about their potential effects on placental function and pregnancy outcomes. Maternal inhalation of pollutant nanoparticles can result in a pro‐inflammatory response; particles can also translocate across the alveolus epithelial barrier

A Quarter Century of EHD Protein Research: From Endosomal Recycling to Ciliopathies

Traffic, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
Human EHD protein subcellular localization. ABSTRACT Eps15 homology domain‐containing proteins comprise a conserved family of membrane‐remodeling ATPases that regulate endocytic trafficking, membrane fission, receptor recycling, primary ciliogenesis and membrane dynamics across eukaryotes. Since the initial identification of EHD1 and its Caenorhabditis

Umbilical Cord Coiling Index as A Marker of Perinatal Outcome

Pakistan Journal of Health Sciences
Umbilical cord coiling patterns have a considerable effect on both pregnancy outcomes and fetal health. Objectives: To assess the postnatal umbilical coiling index and investigate its association with normal coiling, hypo-coiling, and hyper-coiling patterns about maternal and perinatal outcomes.
