Fraser syndrome (FS) involves multiple malformations and has a 25% recurrence risk among siblings. However, these malformations are difficult to detect prenatally, hampering prenatal diagnosis. Here, we describe a fetus with FS diagnosed using ultrasonography. Ultrasonography revealed congenital high airway obstruction syndrome and renal agenesis. Syndactyly of both hands and cryptophthalmos were noted postnatally, and the diagnosis was confirmed by genetic analysis, which showed novel compound heterozygous variants of .

CXCL8 modulates M0 macrophage proliferation and polarization to influence tumor progression in cervical cancer.

Cervical cancer (CESC) presents significant clinical challenges due to its complex tumor microenvironment (TME) and varied treatment responses. This study identified undifferentiated M0 macrophages as high-risk immune cells critically involved in CESC progression. Co-culture experiments further demonstrated that M0 macrophages significantly promoted HeLa cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, underscoring their pivotal role in modulating tumor cell behavior within the TME.

Introduction: Genome-wide non-invasive prenatal testing (gwNIPT) has screening limitations for detectable genetic conditions and cannot detect microdeletions/microduplications (MD) or triploidy. Nuchal translucency (NT) increases with gestation and with genetic or structural abnormalities. This study aims to determine the utility of NT measurement in detecting genetic abnormalities not identified by gwNIPT and the optimal NT threshold value.

Objective: To apply a network medicine-based approach to analyze the phenome of the prenatal fetal MRI and biometric findings in the Chiari II malformation (CM II) to detect specific patterns and co-occurrences.
Method: A single-center retrospective review of fetal MRI scans obtained in fetuses with CM II was performed. Co-occurrence analysis was utilized to generate a phenotypic comorbidity matrix and visualized by Gephi software.

Department of Clinical Genetics, Rennes University Hospital, Rennes, France.
Background: Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I - IDUA gene) is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder. Clinical symptoms, including visceral overload, are progressive and typically begin postnatally. Descriptions of hepatosplenomegaly associated with lysosomal pathology are uncommon during the prenatal period.
