Objective: Fetal intracranial hemorrhage (FICH) is a rare and potentially deleterious condition. Fetal alloimmune thrombocytopenia and pathogenic variations in COL4A1/A2 genes are well-recognized causes of FICH. However, pathogenic COL4A1/A2 variations are identified in only 20% of fetuses referred for FICH after excluding other known causes, leaving the majority unexplained and making genetic counseling difficult.

Purpose: Qualitative and quantitative analyses of retinal arteriolar tortuosity in patients with COL4A1 and COL4A2 mutations to identify a tortuosity index (TI) threshold for detecting increased retinal arteriolar tortuosity.

Methods: Fifty-two eyes of 28 patients were included. Group 1 included eyes with a normal arteriolar pattern (n = 19, 37%), Group 2 included eyes with moderately increased arteriolar tortuosity (n = 13, 25%), and Group 3 included eyes with typical abnormal arteriolar tortuosity (n = 20, 38%).

Background: The KBP studies are real-life nationwide, prospective, multicenter cohort studies of patients diagnosed with primary lung cancer that have been conducted in French non-academic public hospitals each decade since 2000.

Methods: Patients were analyzed in three prospective cohorts using the same methodology. In this study, we describe and compare the characteristics and outcomes of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC), with a focus on treatments in the 2020 cohort.
