Fetal intrahepatic portosystemic shunts: a benign and self-limiting feature?
Congenital portosystemic shunts (PSS) are vascular malformations creating abnormal connections between portal and systemic veins. Blood collected from digestive organs is shunted to the systemic circulation, resulting in possible adverse consequence. There are two categories of congenital shunts, extrahepatic (EPSS) and intrahepatic (IPSS). Current data indicates that IPSS has a favorable prognosis []. However, previous studies were mainly based on findings of neonatal patients.

Valproic acid modulates collagen architecture in the postoperative conjunctival scar - Journal of Molecular Medicine
Abstract Valproic acid (VPA), widely used for the treatment of neurological disorders, has anti-fibrotic activity by reducing collagen production in the postoperative conjunctiva. In this study, we investigated the capacity of VPA to modulate the postoperative collagen architecture. Histochemical examination revealed that VPA treatment was associated with the formation of thinner collagen fibers in the postoperative days 7 and 14 scars.

Prenatal microcephaly: Exome sequencing aids rapid determination of causative etiologies
Microcephaly is an etiologically heterogeneous group of conditions defined as a small head circumference (HC) present at birth or later in life. Although it is a descriptive diagnosis, microcephaly is associated with intellectual disability and neurological abnormalities. Prenatal diagnosis of microcephaly can sometimes be made by ultrasound, defined as HC smaller ≤ 3 standard deviations (SDs) below the mean [ [1] Gelber S.E. Grünebaum A.
A Buddhist Converts to Christianity after Receiving Care from Daughter-In-Law’s Service in Sickness
"I'm so grateful for the grace of God, as suffering is His dressed-up blessing," said a female Christian surnamed Wu whose mother-in-law strived to believe in Jesus. After the National Day in 2020, Wu’s 70-year-old mother-in-law suddenly suffered a stroke due to high blood lipids, and her right hand and feet could not move at all. The mother-in-law’s daughter was too busy with her work to take care of her.

Pregnancies with trisomy 2 cells in chorionic villi: Ultrasound determines the outcome
Complete trisomy 2 contributes significantly to first trimester pregnancy losses, occurring in 1.1 % in all spontaneous abortions []. Trisomy 2 is only compatible with life in mosaicism or the trisomy is confined to placenta. Outcome of mosaic trisomy 2 ranges from normal to neonatal death. Therefore, when trisomy 2 cells are found in chorionic villi on chorionic villus sampling (CVS), the pregnancy needs close supervision.
