Maternal and fetal/neonatal outcomes in pregnancy, delivery and postpartum following bariatric surgery and comparison with pregnant women with obesity: a study protocol for a prospective cohort
Being obese can lead to various complications during pregnancy, such as Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM), pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH), Pre-Eclampsia (PE), and Large Gestational Age (LGA). Although ... (Source: Reproductive Health)

Administration of Antenatal Corticosteroids: Optimal Timing
Geburtshilfe Frauenheilkd. 2024 Jan 3;84(1):48-58. doi: 10.1055/a-2202-5363. eCollection 2024 Jan.ABSTRACTThe effectiveness of antenatal corticosteroids (ACS) in significantly reducing respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) depends crucially on the timing. It is successful if delivery takes place between 24 hours and seven days following administration; after this period, the side effects seem to predominate. In addition, an increased rate of mental impairment and behavioral disorders are observed in children born full-term after ACS administration. The optimal timing of ACS administration depends crucially on the given indic...

Immune checkpoint molecules B7 ‐1 and B7‐H1 as predictive markers of pre‐eclampsia: A case–control study in a Ghana
ConclusionPE may be characterized by a dominant Th1-type immunity with higher levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and B7-H1 proteins, but these variables may not be suitable for predicting PE. (Source: Immunity, Inflammation and Disease)

Method of Anesthesia and Perioperative Risk Factors, Maternal Anesthesia Complications, and Neonatal Mortality Following Cesarean Delivery in Africa: A Substudy of a 7-Day Prospective Observational Cohort Study
CONCLUSIONS: Analysis of patients undergoing anesthesia for cesarean delivery in Africa indicated patients more likely to receive GA. Anesthesia complications and neonatal mortality were more frequent following GA. SA was often administered to high-risk patients, including those with eclampsia or obstetric hemorrhage. Training in the principles of selection of method of anesthesia, and the skills of safe GA and neonatal resuscitation, is recommended.PMID:38190343 | DOI:10.1213/ANE.0000000000006750 (Source: Anesthesia and Analgesia)

In silico method to maximise the biological potential of understudied metabolomic biomarkers: a study in pre-eclampsia
This study pointed to a long-standing issue in metabolomic studies. The lack of robust strategies for biomarker discovery would leave readers with the impression that ‘the biomarker is out-of-nowhere but works’, especially in those scarcely studied biomarkers. Herein, we provided a strategy that infers the potential of understudied biomarkers for further investigation. A previous study has shown that gut bacterial dysbiosis can cause pre-eclampsia (PE) symptoms through the gut–placenta axis.3 However, the role and potential therapeutic effect of gut metabolites as key mediators between bacteria and host r...

Novel Insights into Prokineticin 1 Role in Pregnancy-related Diseases
Int J Med Sci. 2024 Jan 1;21(1):27-36. doi: 10.7150/ijms.76817. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTProkineticin 1 (PROK1) is a secreted protein involved in a range of physiological activities such as cell proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, and neuronal cell proliferation. Emerging evidences show that PROK1/PROK receptors (PROKRs) are expressed by trophoblasts, and decidual stroma cells at the maternal-fetal interface. PROK1 plays a critical role in successful pregnancy establishment by regulating the decidualization, implantation and placental development. Dysregulation of prokineticin signaling has been described in certain pa...
