Our goal is to validate these biomarkers in amniotic fluids in a larger and independent clinical cohort and define 2 to 3 markers that can predict outcomes in CDH cases, and also we want to test whether this marker can be isolated from maternal blood samples instead of amniotic fluid. This would make an ideal biomarker for prenatal CDH outcome prediction.
It's important to say that at the time point of amniotic fluid sampling, there was no difference between the two groups. Observed over expected lung to head ratio was similar between survivors and non-survivors. Also, gestational age, liver herniation, or birth weight did not differ between the two groups.

quotePrenatal diagnosis and prognostication of CDH cases relies currently only on imaging modalities, but sensitivity for CDH cases lies around 70% and remains imperfect in terms of family counseling and prognostication.↗

clinicalCircular RNA profiles isolated from amniotic fluid samples can distinguish between CDH survivors and non-survivors, indicating prognostic value superior to current imaging modalities.↗
▶Ep 14 · 4:40
quotewhen we looked at circular RNA profiles isolated from amniotic fluid samples between survivors and non-survivors, we found that circular RNA profiles can distinguish between the two groups, indicating that they have some prognostic value that is superior to the current imaging modalities.↗
