Predicting intensive care need in women with preeclampsia using machine learning - a pilot study
CONCLUSION: The clinical routine blood parameters ASAT and uric acid as well as BMI, were the parameters most indicative of severe disease. Aspartate aminotransferase reflects liver involvement, uric acid might be involved in several steps of the pathophysiologic process of preeclampsia, and obesity is a well-known risk factor for development of both severe and non-severe preeclampsia likely involving inflammatory pathways..[Figure: see text].PMID:38385188 | DOI:10.1080/10641955.2024.2312165 (Source: Hypertension in Pregnancy)

Use of anticoagulants to improve pregnancy outcomes in couples positive for M2 haplotype: A systematic review
Placenta mediated pregnancy complications (PMPC) include implantation failure, recurrent or late pregnancy loss, pre-eclampsia, placental abruption, fetal growth restriction and premature birth. PMPC represent a significant cause of physical, psychological and emotional morbidity, fetal loss, and maternal and neonatal mortality [1,11,23,35,36,54]. Pregnancy loss alone costs the National Health Service in the United Kingdom more than £400 million per year, highlighting the additional economic burden on health systems from PMPC [38].

Pregnancy-Associated Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome: A Case Report with MCP Gene Mutation and Successful Eculizumab Treatment
We present a case of a 25-year-old primigravida who experienced severe preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome followed by the development of complicated P-aHUS during the early postpartum period. The patient exhibited severe clinical manifestations, including hypertensive emergency, central nervous system involvement, renal impairment, and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia. Timely initiation of eculizumab therapy resulted in successful disease remission. Further genetic analysis revealed a likely rare pathogenic MCP gene variant.

Effects of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy on the complications in very low birth weight neonates
CONCLUSION: HDP was associated with increased incidence of neonatal asphyxia, fatal distress, SGA, mechanical ventilation, RDS, NEC and mortality. Besides, eclampsia and PE were independent risk factors for SGA and NEC.PMID:38375828 | DOI:10.1080/10641955.2024.2314576 (Source: Hypertension in Pregnancy)

Informing Mobile Health Policy for Pregnant Women in Rural Populations in Canada, with a Focus on Pre-Eclampsia
Stud Health Technol Inform. 2024 Feb 19;312:107-111. doi: 10.3233/SHTI231322.ABSTRACTCanadian healthcare suffers rural disparities, especially in maternal and prenatal care. Drawing on a literature review, the paper highlights the potential of mobile health (mHealth) applications to bridge this gap and improve maternal care in rural communities. mHealth tools have great potential for knowledge and trust-building among healthcare workers and pregnant women. To support the success of these solutions, more funding and policy support are required. mHealth solutions have a great potential for great economic savings while addres...
