Article Abstract
The association between umbilical cord ulceration and intestinal atresia has been previously established. Umbilical cord ulceration is a seemingly rare, potentially life threatening complication of intestinal atresia. The exact etiological mechanism is unknown and recent literature indicates more intensive prenatal monitoring may alter fetal outcome. In this paper we will review the previously reported cases of intestinal atresia complicated by umbilical cord ulceration and comment on the pathophysiological mechanism of umbilical cord ulceration, with emphasis on the unique location of the atresia at the gastroduodenal junction in our case.

Background: The roles of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the progression of various human tumors have been extensively studied. However, their specific mechanisms and therapeutic potential in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) remain to be fully elucidated.
Materials And Methods: The qRT-PCR assay was utilized to assess the relative mRNA levels of TFAP2A-AS1, PHGDH, and miR-6892.

Defective wounds pose health risks, and treatment is challenging. Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) show promise for healing. Primary UCMSCs were isolated and extracted in vitro, and the proliferation and differentiation characteristics were detected by flow cytometry and trilineage differentiation, and a 3D spherical cell culture was performed.

Objective: To compare the mode of delivery and other maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients with one prior cesarean delivery undergoing labor induction with a cervical ripening balloon (CRB) for 6 h versus 12 h.
Methods: This retrospective study compared two protocols for mechanical cervical ripening: CRB placement for 12 h (12-h group, implemented from 2014 to 2017) versus 6 h (6-h group, implemented from 2020 to 2021). The study included patients with one prior low-segment cesarean delivery.
A retrospective study for the diagnostic value of chromosomal microarray analysis in fetuses with high-risk prenatal indications.

Department of Medical Genetics, Jiangxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Nanchang, China.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the diagnostic value of prenatal chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) for fetuses at high risk for various conditions on chromosomal abnormalities.
Methods: In the study, 8,560 clinical samples were collected from pregnant women between February 2018 and June 2022, including 75 villus, 7,642 amniotic fluid, and 843 umbilical cord blood samples. All samples were screening for chromosomal abnormalities using both CMA and karyotyping.

Background: Umbilical arterial catheterisation is a common intervention performed in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) especially in extremely preterm and extremely low birth weight neonates. Rarely catheter fracture or breakage can occur, leaving behind part of the catheter in the aorta. A handful of cases have been reported in the literature, with the majority being managed surgically.
