    Two unrelated Chinese-Canadian families with recurrent hydrops fetalis are described. The investigation, acid-base and blood gas studies, and clinical course of one hydropic fetus with large amounts of hemoglobin Bart's who survived for three hours are described. Data for the parents of both families, consistent with the alphathalassemia carrier state, are presented.

    Genomic Imprinting and Inheritance

    Diploid organisms inherit genetic material through chromosomes from both parents. Copies of the same gene are known as alleles. In most cases, both alleles are simultaneously expressed and allow various cellular processes to function optimally. If one of the alleles is missing or mutated, the expression of the other allele can compensate; however, this is not true for all genes.
    The expression of some genes depends on which parent passed the gene to the offspring, through a phenomenon known as...

    Teratogenicity

    The ability of a drug to produce structural deformations and functional abnormalities in the developing embryo or the fetus is called teratogenicity, and the drug producing this effect is known as a teratogen. Teratogenic effects include stillbirth, miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, and neurocognitive delay. A teratogen may affect the embryo at different stages of development, which is important in determining the type and extent of the damage. During blastocyst formation, the early...
