Prevention of Maternal Rh D Alloimmunization: A Comparative Review of Guidelines.
Obstet Gynecol Surv
December 2024
Associate Professor.
Importance: Rhesus alloimmunization refers to the sensitization of an Rh D-negative mother after exposure to D-positive fetal red blood cells, which can lead to significant fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality.
Objective: The aim of this study was to review and compare the most recently published international guidelines on the prevention of maternal alloimmunization.
Evidence Acquisition: A comparative review of guidelines from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the British Committee for Standards in Hematology, the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics, the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada regarding the prevention of maternal Rh D alloimmunization was conducted.
Abscission is a tightly regulated process in which plants shed unnecessary, infected, damaged, or aging organs, as well as ripe fruits, through predetermined abscission zones in response to developmental, hormonal, and environmental signals. Despite its importance, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This study highlights the deleterious effects of abscission on chloroplast ultrastructure in the cells of the tomato flower pedicel abscission zone, revealing spatiotemporal differential gene expression and key transcriptional networks involved in chloroplast vesiculation during abscission.

BMC Cancer
January 2025
Department of Biochemistry, School of Medicine, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
Background: Inadequate treatment responses, chemotherapy resistance, significant heterogeneity, and lengthy treatment durations create an urgent need for new pancreatic cancer therapies. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of gemcitabine-loaded nanoparticles enclosed in an organo-metallic framework under ketogenic conditions in inhibiting the growth of MIA-PaCa-2 cells.
Methods: Gemcitabine was encapsulated in Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and its morphology and size distribution were examined using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Dynamic light scattering (DLS) with further characterization including FTIR analysis.
Are we systematically overdosing women? Revisiting standardized contrast protocols for thoracoabdominal CT scans.
Eur Radiol
January 2025
Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, University Hospital Augsburg, Augsburg, Germany.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the iodine contrast in blood and solid organs differs between men and women and to evaluate the effect of BMI, height, weight, and blood volume (BV) on sex-specific contrast in staging CT.
Materials And Methods: Patients receiving a venous-phase thoracoabdominal Photon-Counting Detector CT (PCD-CT) scan with 100- or 120-mL CM between 08/2021 and 01/2022 were retrospectively included in this single-center study. Image analysis was performed by measuring iodine contrast in the liver, portal vein, spleen, left atrium, left ventricle, pulmonary trunk, ascending and descending aorta on spectral PCD-CT datasets.
Nomogram for pre-procedural prediction of lymph node metastasis in patients with submucosal early gastric cancer.
Surg Endosc
January 2025
Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital, Clinical Teaching Hospital of Medical School, Nanjing University, 98 Nantong West Road, Yangzhou, 225001, Jiangsu, China.
Background: The treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC) is contingent upon the status of lymph node metastasis (LNM). Accurate preoperative prediction of LNM is critical for reducing unnecessary surgeries. This study seeks to evaluate the risk factors for LNM in submucosal EGC and develop a predictive model to optimize therapeutic decision-making.
