Two cases of placental chorioangiomas were discovered, one echographically after in utero death at mid-term pregnancy and the second during the neonatal period associated with acute hydramniosis and a single umbilical artery. At 8 months, the new-born was in good health after persistent cholestasis at birth. A review of the literature of the macroscopic, histologic, echographic characteristics and the foetal-maternal complications of chorioangiomas revealed few cases of in utero death, especially so early in term.

This article aims to identify the relationship between material deprivation and mortality from breast, cervical, and prostate neoplasms in the Brazilian adult population and the relationship between ethnicity/skin color and material deprivation. This cross-sectional ecological study calculated the mean mortality rate per 100,000 inhabitants, and deaths were standardized by age and gender and redistributed per to ill-defined causes, stratified by age group and ethnicity/skin color. We applied the Negative Binomial model, containing the interaction between ethnicity/skin color and the Brazilian Deprivation Index (IBP).

Background And Objectives: Research to identify fetal predictors of infant mortality among singletons born in the United States (US) concludes that poorly understood and unmeasured "confounders" produce a spurious association between fetal size and infant death. We argue that these confounders include Vanishing Twin Syndrome (VTS)-the clinical manifestation of selection against frail male twins . We test our argument in 276 monthly conception cohorts conceived in the US from January 1995 through December 2017.
