3D ultrasound angioscan with MV-Flow™: Enhancing fetal brain low-flow microvascular neuroimaging.

MVFlow™ is a 3D algorithm that enhances the study of the microvasculature, useful in the study of tumoral lesions or in assessing the slow-flow of the placenta vessels and the developing fetal brain. It may improve the study of the corpus callosum in normal fetuses and be applied in the characterization of brain pathologies.

Congenital Syphilis Presenting with Brain Abnormalities at Neuroscan: A Case Report and a Brief Literature Review.

A case of vertical transmission in a 35-year-old pregnant woman, gravida 4, para 2 with an unknown medical history of carrying primary syphilis is described. A routine 3rd trimester scan was performed at 30 + 5 weeks of pregnancy, which revealed fetal growth restriction (FGR) associated with absent fetal movement, a pathologic neuroscan characterized by cortical calcifications and ominous Doppler waveform analysis of the umbilical artery and ductus venosus. Computerized electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) showed a Class III tracing, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) guidelines.

Convalescent Plasma for Pregnant Women with COVID-19: A Systematic Literature Review.

The treatment of COVID-19 is particularly critical in pregnant women, considering the potential teratogenic effects of antiviral agents and the immune-depression related with pregnancy. The aim of this review is to systematically examine the current evidence on the clinical use of convalescent plasma during pregnancy. The electronic databases Medline PubMed Advanced Search Builder, Scopus, Web Of Science and Google Scholar were searched (until 1 January 2021).
