Article Abstract
Retained placenta can lead to septic shock; however, sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SICM) due to retained placenta has not been reported previously. This report presents a rare case of SICM following septic shock due to retained placenta after miscarriage in a 40-year-old woman, accompanied by the "shark fin sign" on an electrocardiogram, a pattern typically linked to myocardial ischemia. She experienced ventricular tachycardia and required venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; however, she was successfully treated. We also reviewed previous cases of shark fin sign in patients without myocardial infarction. A review showed that half of the cases experienced lethal arrhythmias, even without myocardial infarction.

Composite Scaffolds of Decellularized Placenta/PRP Enhance the Differentiation of Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Into Insulin-Producing Cells In Vitro.

In the current in vitro experiment, we fabricated and characterized placenta/platelet-rich plasma (PL/Pt) composite scaffolds and evaluated their effect on differentiating adipose stem cells (ASCs) into insulin-producing cells (IPCs) in vitro. The human placenta (PL) was decellularized (dPL), characterized, and digested in pepsin. PRP was extracted using a two-step centrifugation process and then freeze-dried.

Background: Reproductive-age women with intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) following uterine surgery may be asymptomatic or may experience light or absent menstruation, infertility, preterm delivery, and/or peripartum hemorrhage. Understanding procedure- and technique-specific risks and the available evidence on the impact of surgical adjuvants is essential to the design of future research.
Objective And Rationale: While many systematic reviews have been published, most deal with singular aspects of the problem.
Manifold roles of CCR7 chemokine GPCR in differentiation of human trophoblast into extravillous and syncytiotrophoblast lineages.

CCR7 chemokine G protein-coupled receptor is expressed in extraembryonic tissues of the early human embryo, including trophectoderm and its derivatives cytotrophoblast (CTB), extravillous trophoblast (EVT), and syncytiotrophoblast (STB). However, its function in placentation remains understudied. Here, we generated human embryonic stem cells harboring CCR7 deletions and differentiated them into human trophoblast stem cells (hTSC), their EVT and STB derivatives, and trophoblast organoids.

Placental accreta (PLA) has increased and is identified as a significant risk factor for PLA. Clinical approaches for treating cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) varied, there is still controversy over whether CSP patients can continue pregnancy. This study aimed to use ultrasound monitoring to explore the connection between CSP and PLA.

The primary causes include retained products of conception (RPOC), subinvolution of the placental site (SIPS), and endometritis. SIPS, historically diagnosed histopathologically, is increasingly being identified using ultrasonography and angiography.
