Pain, gastrointestinal function and fertility outcomes of modified nerve ‐vessel sparing segmental and full thickness discoid resection for deep colorectal endometriosis – A prospective cohort study
ConclusionsNVSSR and FTDR for symptomatic colorectal DE confer a significant amelioration of GI function reflected by decreased LARS symptoms and increased GIQLI scores with no differences in postsurgical function in between the two techniques. Both techniques confer similar complication rates and effects on pain reduction and health profiles. (Source: Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica)

Factors in early pregnancy predicting pregnancy ‐related pain in the second and third trimester
ConclusionsWhen including physical risk factors, sociodemographic factors, psychological factors and clinical risk factors, women's experiences of pregnancy-related pain in the first trimester are the most important predictors for pain later in pregnancy. Beyond the expected positive effects of pregnancy-related pain, notably self-assessed fitness, age and parity were predictive for pain later in pregnancy.

Universal cervical length screening for preterm birth is not useful after 24  weeks of gestation
ConclusionsIn asymptomatic women with singleton pregnancy at low risk for spontaneous preterm birth, the predictive value of cervical length after 24+0 weeks of gestation is low. Therefore, cervical length screening in these women should be discouraged. (Source: Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica)

Critical care, maternal and neonatal outcomes of pregnant women with COVID ‐19 admitted to eight intensive care units during the wildtype, alpha and delta waves of the pandemic across the North West of England—a retrospective review
ConclusionsOf the women admitted to ICU antepartum, 40% were discharged while remaining pregnant and 60% had expedited delivery. Antepartum women who were discharged from ICU without giving birth may receive lower rates of mechanical ventilation than those who delivered in ICU or admitted postpartum; however, further studies are needed to confirm or refute this association.

Small ‐for‐gestational‐age fetus diagnosed in the second trimester: Possible etiologies and short‐term neonatal outcomes
ConclusionsWe report that fetal growth<10th percentile diagnosed before 26  weeks is not isolated before birth in 27% of cases. Malformations and chromosomal abnormalities are common etiologies; therefore, detailed anomaly scans and invasive testing should be offered. In addition, there is a residual risk of neonatal death and postnatal diagnosis of a genetic syndrome or neurodevelopmental impairment despite normal prenatal tests. These results expand the small amount of information on the outcome of cases with very early diagnosis of impaired fetal growth currently available and highlight the importance of detailed c...

Imaging features, clinical characteristics and neonatal outcomes of pregnancy luteoma: A case series and literature review
ConclusionsPregnancy luteomas mainly manifest as well-defined, hypoechoic and hypervascular solid masses. MRI and CT are superior to ultrasonography in displaying the imaging features of multiple nodules. Maternal masculinization and solid masses with multiple nodules on imaging may help diagnose this rare disease. (Source: Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica)

Reproductive outcomes after laparoscopic resection of symptomatic niches in uterine cesarean scars: Long ‐term follow‐up on the prospective LAPNICHE study
ConclusionsThe reproductive outcomes in women with and without previous fertility problems undergoing resection of a large niche are very promising and quite comparable in both groups. These results suggest, but do not prove, a beneficial effect of this therapy for these indications. The results support the design of future randomized controlled trials to evaluate the effect of niche resection vs expectant management to assess its additional value in women with or without fertility problems who desire pregnancy.
