In the Second Gynaecological and Obstetric Clinic in Brno there has been for more than 15 years a specialized department for treatment of diabetes during pregnancy. The department monitors and treats pregnant diabetics from approximately two thirds of the former South Moravian region, i.e. patients with diabetes assessed before pregnancy as well as those where an impaired carbohydrate metabolism was detected during pregnancy. The authors submit an account of the organization of team work in their out-patient department.

High-resolution anatomical imaging of the fetal brain with a reduced field of view using outer volume suppression.
Magn Reson Med
October 2024
Department of Radiology, Weill Cornell Medicine, New York, New York, USA.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to enhance fetal brain imaging quality by using a reduced field of view (FOV) with outer volume suppression (OVS) techniques to minimize image artifacts.
- Researchers conducted simulations and real-life experiments to compare this new method with traditional imaging and found it produced clearer, sharper images of the fetal brain.
- Results indicated that the reduced FOV approach not only improved image quality scores but also showed promise for better diagnosing fetal brain abnormalities before birth.

A large research-based consensus was achieved over the past 30 years concerning the importance of prenatal and early childhood development: Preventive interventions are needed early in life because physical and psychological problems during pregnancy and early childhood often lead to serious physical, psychological, educational, and social problems throughout the life course. These problems are also transmitted to the next generation. The COVID-19 pandemic is likely to have increased the number of families who need these early-life preventive interventions.

As prenatal genetic testing technologies have become both easier and more accessible, women are increasingly choosing prenatal genetic testing for a reason that is largely unexamined in the clinical literature: preparation. This reasoning, offered not only from pregnant women but frequently from testing laboratories and health care providers, reflects long-held assumptions that prenatal genetic results-properly delivered and followed with information, clinical surveillance, and/or social supports-prepare families for a child with a genetic condition, and even improve health and social outcomes for children and families. But these assumptions remain unexamined, since there are no clear definitions or recommendations for prenatal preparation.
