Eleven newborns from 25 to 32 weeks of gestational age, weighting from 0.66 to 1.60 kg received 2 mg/kg doses of nevirapine syrup. In 15 samples, collected 8.75-89 hours after drug intake, concentrations ranged from 0.65 to 16.68 mg/L. Three nevirapine dose of 2 mg/kg at day 0, 2 and 6 days of life achieved nevirapine concentrations above the proposed nevirapine target for HIV prophylaxis for at least 11 days.

Intrahepatic portosystemic shunt: salvage mechanism for oligohydramnios complicating fetal growth restriction.

Ultrasound Obstet Gynecol

January 2025

Ultrasound Unit, Helen Schneider Hospital for Women, Rabin Medical Center, Beilinson Hospital, Petach Tikva, Israel.

Objective: Portosystemic shunts in growth-restricted fetuses are more common than previously thought. We aimed to describe fetuses with growth restriction and transient oligohydramnios in which a congenital intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (CIPSS) was noted during follow-up.

Methods: This was a retrospective study of all fetuses diagnosed with growth restriction and transient oligohydramnios during a 5-year period in a large tertiary referral center.

Introduction: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), defined as two or more consecutive pregnancy losses before 24 weeks of gestation, affects up to 1%-2% of couples. Aim of this retrospective cohort study was to report the main causes and pregnancy outcomes of a cohort of women with RPL and the efficacy of a personalized work-up and treatment in terms of live birth rate.

Material And Methods: Women with primary (pRPL) and secondary (sRPL) RPL underwent a complete work-up and personalized therapeutic management.

Improving Image Quality and Decreasing SAR With High Dielectric Constant Pads in 3 T Fetal MRI.

J Magn Reson Imaging

January 2025

Department of Radiology, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Medical School, Nanjing University, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China.

Background: At high magnetic fields, degraded image quality due to dielectric artifacts and elevated specific absorption rate (SAR) are two technical challenges in fetal MRI.

Purpose: To assess the potential of high dielectric constant (HDC) pad in increasing image quality and decreasing SAR for 3 T fetal MRI.

Study Type: Prospective.
