Objective: The natural history of cephaloceles is not well understood. The goal of this study was to better understand the natural history of fetal cephaloceles from prenatal diagnosis to the postnatal period.
Methods: Between January 2013 and April 2023, all patients evaluated with a cephalocele at the Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment were identified.

To assess the prenatal course and early postnatal outcomes of fetuses diagnosed with tricuspid atresia and to identify predictors of survival. This was a retrospective study of 25 fetuses diagnosed with tricuspid atresia in a single tertiary referral center, evaluating prenatal echocardiographic features and postnatal outcomes. A total of 4 of 29 initially diagnosed fetuses were excluded due to changes in diagnosis or loss to follow-up, leaving 25 fetuses for analysis.

Bones develop to structurally balance strength and mobility. Bone developmental dynamics are influenced by whether an animal is ambulatory at birth (, precocial). Precocial species, such as goats, develop advanced skeletal maturity in utero, making them useful models for studying the dynamics of bone formation under mechanical load.

Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) induced by utero-placental insufficiency (UPI) results in delayed neural development and impaired brain growth. This study investigates the effects of Naringin (Nar) on memory, learning, cholinergic activity, oxidative stress markers, hippocampal CREB/BDNF signal pathway and cell damage in offspring of rats exposed to UPI. Twenty pregnant Wistar rats were randomly assigned to four groups: control, sham surgery, UPI + NS (UPI + normal saline as a vehicle), and UPI + Nar (UPI + Nar at 100 mg/kg/day).

However, it is unclear if exposure to low levels of anxiety in utero would also impact the developing brain. The current prospective and longitudinal study included 40 healthy pregnant women without pregnancy complications or previous diagnosis of anxiety disorders.
