Background: This study aimed to develop and validate a targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel along with a data analysis algorithm capable of detecting single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) and copy number variations (CNVs) within the beta-globin gene cluster. The aim was to reduce the turnaround time in conventional genotyping methods and provide a rapid and comprehensive solution for prenatal diagnosis, carrier screening, and genotyping of β-thalassemia patients.
Methods And Results: We devised a targeted NGS panel spanning an 80.

Background: Hypertension is the most common primary diagnosis associated with postpartum readmissions within 42 days of delivery hospitalization. In the United States, nearly half of the cases of eclampsia, a severe form of preeclampsia, develop during the postpartum period, and the postpartum onset of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, like antepartum hypertension poses long-term health risks to pregnant individuals, including an increased likelihood of developing overall cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, heart failure, and chronic hypertension. In this paper, we estimate the trends in the incidence of readmissions for postpartum hypertension within 42 days of delivery discharge in the US, disaggregated by median household income.
