Factors affecting low fetal fraction in fetal screening with cell-free DNA in pregnant women: a systematic review and meta-analysis
BackgroundCell-Free DNA (cfDNA) is a non-invasive perinatal test (NIPT) used to assess fetal anomalies. The ability to detect fetal chromosomal...

The value of fetal magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosis of congenital anomalies of the fetal body: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ObjectivesTo undertake a systematic review to assess the accuracy of fetal MRI in diagnosis of non-CNS congenital anomalies of the fetal body in...

Combined prenatal US and post-mortem fetal MRI: can they replace conventional autopsy for fetal body abnormalities?
ObjectivesThe acceptance of conventional autopsy (CA), the gold standard method for investigating fetal death, often remains problematic. Post-mortem...

Fetal Ascites: Its Prenatal Management and Postnatal Outcome
ObjectiveTo report a single tertiary center experience in the management of prenatally diagnosed cases of fetal ascites and their postnatal outcomes.

Differences in placental oxygenation and perfusion status between fetal growth-restricted and small-for-gestational-age pregnancies: a functional magnetic resonance imaging study
ObjectiveFunctional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can assess oxygenation and perfusion status in the placenta. We aimed to explore the differences...

Prenatal Detection of Congenital Heart Disease: Importance of Fetal Echocardiography Following Normal Fetal Cardiac Screening
Fetal echocardiography may be performed because of noncardiac indications (the pregnancy is identified as high risk for fetal cardiac disease), or...

A prenatal standard for fetal weight improves the prenatal diagnosis of small for gestational age fetuses in pregnancies at increased risk
ObjectiveOur aim was to assess diagnostic accuracy in the prediction of small for gestational age (SGA <10th centile) and fetal growth restricted...

Digital fetal scalp stimulation (dFSS) versus fetal blood sampling (FBS) to assess fetal wellbeing in labour—a multi-centre randomised controlled trial: Fetal Intrapartum Randomised Scalp Stimulation Trial (FIRSST NCT05306756)
BackgroundCardiotocography (CTG) is a screening test used to detect fetal hypoxia in labour. It has a high false positive rate resulting in many...

Abnormal epigenetic memory of mesenchymal stem and progenitor cells caused by fetal malnutrition induces hypertension and renal injury in adulthood
Fetal malnutrition has been reported to induce hypertension and renal injury in adulthood. We hypothesized that this hypertension and renal injury...
