Effective screening for small for gestational age neonates (SGA), in the absence of preeclampsia, can be accomplished using a contingent screening method. The basis for the contingent model is a combined assessment at 19-24 weeks gestation to stratify patients according to their risk. We can then identify prenatally over 90% of SGA neonates for a false positive rate of 10%.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a predominant cause of cancer-related mortality globally, noted for its propensity towards late-stage diagnosis and scarcity of effective treatment modalities. The process of metabolic reprogramming, with a specific emphasis on lipid metabolism, is instrumental in the progression of HCC. Nevertheless, the precise mechanisms through which lipid metabolism impacts HCC and its viability as a therapeutic target have yet to be fully elucidated.

Objective: Ex vivo confocal laser scanning microscopy (EVCM) is an emerging imaging technique, which offers rapid tissue examination. While the current literature shows promising results in the evaluation of non-melanoma skin cancer, only limited research exists on the application of EVCM in melanocytic lesions. This study aimed to assess the utility of EVCM in the characterization of melanocytic lesions and compare its findings with gold-standard histopathology.
