Background And Objectives: To test the performance of a new droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) non-invasive foetal blood group and platelet antigen genotyping assay in the setting of a Dutch reference laboratory for foetal blood group and platelet antigen genotyping. Our population comprised 229 consecutive alloimmunized pregnant women who presented between April 2022 and March 2023 with 250 requests for non-invasive foetal RHD, RHE, RHc, RHC, K1, HPA-1a or HPA-5b blood group and platelet antigen genotyping.
Materials And Methods: Samples were genotyped for blood group and platelet antigen alleles along with methylated RASSF1a (mRASSF1a) and sex-determining region of Y (SRY) and DYS14 as positive foetal controls.

Background: Although older adult patients have a higher retear rate after rotator cuff (RC) repair, the influence of aging on the healing process remains unclear. During mouse enthesis development, a multipotent progenitor co-expressing scleraxis (Scx) and SRY-box 9 (Sox9) contributes to enthesis formation. Scx/Sox9 cells may act as enthesis progenitors even during postnatal healing, and their number decreases with maturation.

One of the most recognizable cases of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is X-linked diseases. Diagnosis of fetal sex is essential for couples who are known to be at risk of some X-linked disorders. The objective of this study was to discriminate between female (XX) and male (XY) embryos by detecting sex chromosomes-specific sequences in spent culture medium and comparing these results to PGD/CGH array results.

Background: Given increased neoadjuvant therapy use in early-stage, hormone receptor (HR)-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer, we sought to quantify likelihood of breast-conserving surgery (BCS) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) or endocrine therapy (NET) as a function of ER%/PR%/Ki-67%, 21-gene recurrence scores (RS), or 70-gene risk groups.
Methods: We analyzed the 2010-2020 National Cancer Database. Surgery was categorized as "mastectomy/BCS.
