Abstract: Objectives: To evaluate the maternal and perinatal outcomes of pregnancies affected by SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods: This was a multinational retrospective cohort study including women with a singleton pregnancy and laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, conducted in 72 centers in 22 different countries in Europe, the USA, South America, Asia and Australia, between 1 February 2020 and 30 April 2020. Confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection was defined as a positive result on real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay of nasopharyngeal swab specimens. The primary outcome was a composite measure of maternal mortality and morbidity, including admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), use of mechanical ventilation and death. Results: In total, 388 women with a singleton pregnancy tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 on RT-PCR of a nasopharyngeal swab and were included in the study. Composite adverse maternal outcome was observed in 47/388 (12.1%) women; 43 (11.1%) women were admitted to the ICU, 36 (9.3%) required mechanical ventilation and three (0.8%) died. Of the 388 women included in the study, 122 (31.4%) were still pregnant at the time of data analysis. Among the other 266 women, six (19.4% of the 31 women with first-trimester infection) had miscarriage, three (1.1%) had termination of pregnancy, six (2.3%) had stillbirth and 251 (94.4%) delivered a liveborn infant. The rate of preterm birth before 37 weeks' gestation was 26.3% (70/266). Of the 251 liveborn infants, 69/251 (27.5%) were admitted to the neonatal ICU, and there were five (2.0%) neonatal deaths. The overall rate of perinatal death was 4.1% (11/266). Only one (1/251, 0.4%) infant, born to a mother who tested positive during the third trimester, was found to be positive for SARS-CoV-2 on RT-PCR. Conclusions: SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women is associated with a 0.8% rate of maternal mortality, but an 11.1% rate of admission to the ICU. The risk of vertical transmission seems to be negligible. © 2020 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology. © 2020 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Abstract: BACKGROUND: It has still to be ascertained whether severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in pregnancy is associated with worse maternal and fetal outcomes compared to low risk gestations. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate maternal and perinatal outcomes in high- and low-risk pregnancies complicated by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. STUDY DESIGN: This was a multinational retrospective cohort study involving women with laboratory-confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection from 76 centers from 25 countries in Europe, the United States, South America, Asia, and Australia from April 4, 2020, to October 28, 2020. The primary outcome was a composite measure of maternal mortality and morbidity, including admission to the intensive care unit, use of mechanical ventilation, or death. The secondary outcome was a composite measure of adverse perinatal outcome, including miscarriage, fetal loss, neonatal and perinatal death, and admission to the neonatal intensive care unit. All outcomes were assessed in high- and low-risk pregnancies. Pregnancies were considered high risk in case of either preexisting chronic medical conditions in pregnancy or obstetrical disorders occurring in pregnancy. The Fisher exact test and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the data. RESULTS: A total of 887 singleton pregnancies who tested positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction of nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens were included in the study. The risk of composite adverse maternal outcomes was higher in high-risk pregnancies than in low-risk pregnancies (odds ratio, 1.52; 95% confidence interval, 1.03–2.24; P=.035). In addition, women carrying high-risk pregnancies were at higher risk of hospital admission (odds ratio, 1.48; 95% confidence interval, 1.07–2.04; P=.002), presence of severe respiratory symptoms (odds ratio, 2.13; 95% confidence interval, 0.41–3.21; P=.001), admission to the intensive care unit (odds ratio, 2.63; 95% confidence interval, 1.42–4.88), and invasive mechanical ventilation (odds ratio, 2.65; 95% confidence interval, 1.19–5.94; P=.002). When exploring perinatal outcomes, high-risk pregnancies were at high risk of adverse perinatal outcomes (odds ratio, 1.78; 95% confidence interval, 0.15–2.72; P=.009). However, such association was mainly because of the higher incidence of miscarriage in high-risk pregnancies compared with that in low-risk pregnancies (5.3% vs 1.6%, P=.008); furthermore, there was no difference in other explored outcomes between the 2 study groups. At logistic regression analysis, maternal age (odds ratio, 1.12; 95% confidence interval, 1.02–1.22; P=.023) and high-risk pregnancy (odds ratio, 4.21; 95% confidence interval, 3.90–5.11; P

10. Prevention of congenital taxoplasmosis in Slovenia by serological screening of pregnant women.

Author: Logar J, Petrovec M, Novak-Antolic Z, Premru-Srsen T, Cizman M, Arnez M, and Kraut A
Abstract: A programme for the prevention of congenital toxoplasmosis in Slovenia involving the screening of pregnant women for Toxoplasma infection is presented. Of 21,270 pregnant women screened for toxoplasmosis between, 1996 and the end of 1999, 13,987 (66%) were seronegative, 7,151 (34%) seropositive and 132 had primary infection; 9/1,000 women were at risk of acquiring the primary infection. One hundred live-born infants of primary infected women were available for follow-up. Nine infected but asymptomatic children were born to mothers who were screened and treated in time and two congenitally infected babies were born to mothers in whom infection was detected too late in pregnancy and who therefore received no adequate treatment. It is suggested that the results obtained in this study outweigh the cost of screening for toxoplasmosis in pregnancy. Pregnant women should always be tested at the beginning of pregnancy and, in cases of seronegativity, should be re-tested in the second and third trimesters of the pregnancy. Toxoplasma primary infected pregnant women and neonates should be treated as soon as possible. However, long-term follow-up of children born to primary infected women would be necessary for an accurate evaluation of the effectiveness of the screening because of the possibility of late onset of symptoms.

Abstract: Objectives To evaluate the strength of association between maternal and pregnancy characteristics and the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes in pregnancies with laboratory confirmed COVID-19. Methods Secondary analysis of a multinational, cohort study on all consecutive pregnant women with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 from February 1, 2020 to April 30, 2020 from 73 centers from 22 different countries. A confirmed case of COVID-19 was defined as a positive result on real-time reverse-transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction (RT-PCR) assay of nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens. The primary outcome was a composite adverse fetal outcome, defined as the presence of either abortion (pregnancy loss before 22 weeks of gestations), stillbirth (intrauterine fetal death after 22 weeks of gestation), neonatal death (death of a live-born infant within the first 28 days of life), and perinatal death (either stillbirth or neonatal death). Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate parameters independently associated with the primary outcome. Logistic regression was reported as odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Results Mean gestational age at diagnosis was 30.6±9.5 weeks, with 8.0% of women being diagnosed in the first, 22.2% in the second and 69.8% in the third trimester of pregnancy. There were six miscarriage (2.3%), six intrauterine device (IUD) (2.3) and 5 (2.0%) neonatal deaths, with an overall rate of perinatal death of 4.2% (11/265), thus resulting into 17 cases experiencing and 226 not experiencing composite adverse fetal outcome. Neither stillbirths nor neonatal deaths had congenital anomalies found at antenatal or postnatal evaluation. Furthermore, none of the cases experiencing IUD had signs of impending demise at arterial or venous Doppler. Neonatal deaths were all considered as prematurity-related adverse events. Of the 250 live-born neonates, one (0.4%) was found positive at RT-PCR pharyngeal swabs performed after delivery. The mother was tested positive during the third trimester of pregnancy. The newborn was asymptomatic and had negative RT-PCR test after 14 days of life. At logistic regression analysis, gestational age at diagnosis (OR: 0.85, 95% CI 0.8–0.9 per week increase; p Conclusions Early gestational age at infection, maternal ventilatory supports and low birthweight are the main determinants of adverse perinatal outcomes in fetuses with maternal COVID-19 infection. Conversely, the risk of vertical transmission seems negligible.

Abstract: WOS:000613461600006 PubMed ID: 32926494 Objectives To evaluate the maternal and perinatal outcomes of pregnancies affected by SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods This was a multinational retrospective cohort study including women with a singleton pregnancy and laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, conducted in 72 centers in 22 different countries in Europe, the USA, South America, Asia and Australia, between 1 February 2020 and 30 April 2020. Confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection was defined as a positive result on real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay of nasopharyngeal swab specimens. The primary outcome was a composite measure of maternal mortality and morbidity, including admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), use of mechanical ventilation and death. Results In total, 388 women with a singleton pregnancy tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 on RT-PCR of a nasopharyngeal swab and were included in the study. Composite adverse maternal outcome was observed in 47/388 (12.1%) women; 43 (11.1%) women were admitted to the ICU, 36 (9.3%) required mechanical ventilation and three (0.8%) died. Of the 388 women included in the study, 122 (31.4%) were still pregnant at the time of data analysis. Among the other 266 women, six (19.4% of the 31 women with first-trimester infection) had miscarriage, three (1.1%) had termination of pregnancy, six (2.3%) had stillbirth and 251 (94.4%) delivered a liveborn infant. The rate of preterm birth before 37 weeks' gestation was 26.3% (70/266). Of the 251 liveborn infants, 69/251(27.5%) were admitted to the neonatal ICU, and there were five (2.0%) neonatal deaths. The overall rate of perinatal death was 4.1% (11/266). Only one (1/251, 0.4%) infant, born to a mother who tested positive during the third trimester, was found to be positive for SARS-CoV-2 on RT-PCR. Conclusions SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women is associated with a 0.8% rate of maternal mortality, but an 11.1% rate of admission to the ICU. The risk of vertical transmission seems to be negligible. (C) 2020 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: It has still to be ascertained whether severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in pregnancy is associated with worse maternal and fetal outcomes compared to low risk gestations. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate maternal and perinatal outcomes in high- and low-risk pregnancies complicated by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. STUDY DESIGN: This was a multinational retrospective cohort study involving women with laboratory-confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection from 76 centers from 25 countries in Europe, the United States, South America, Asia, and Australia from April 4, 2020, to October 28, 2020. The primary outcome was a composite measure of maternal mortality and morbidity, including admission to the intensive care unit, use of mechanical ventilation, or death. The secondary outcome was a composite measure of adverse perinatal outcome, including miscarriage, fetal loss, neonatal and perinatal death, and admission to the neonatal intensive care unit. All outcomes were assessed in high- and low-risk pregnancies. Pregnancies were considered high risk in case of either preexisting chronic medical conditions in pregnancy or obstetrical disorders occurring in pregnancy. The Fisher exact test and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the data. RESULTS: A total of 887 singleton pregnancies who tested positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction of nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens were included in the study. The risk of composite adverse maternal outcomes was higher in high-risk pregnancies than in low-risk pregnancies (odds ratio, 1.52; 95% confidence interval, 1.03-2.24; P=.035). In addition, women carrying high-risk pregnancies were at higher risk of hospital admission (odds ratio, 1.48; 95% confidence interval, 1.07-2.04; P=.002), presence of severe respiratory symptoms (odds ratio, 2.13; 95% confidence interval, 0.41-3.21; P=.001), admission to the intensive care unit (odds ratio, 2.63; 95% confidence interval, 1.42-4.88), and invasive mechanical ventilation (odds ratio, 2.65; 95% confidence interval, 1.19-5.94; P=.002). When exploring perinatal outcomes, high-risk pregnancies were at high risk of adverse perinatal outcomes (odds ratio, 1.78; 95% confidence interval, 0.15-2.72; P=.009). However, such association was mainly because of the higher incidence of miscarriage in high-risk pregnancies compared with that in low-risk pregnancies (5.3% vs 1.6%, P=.008); furthermore, there was no difference in other explored outcomes between the 2 study groups. At logistic regression analysis, maternal age (odds ratio, 1.12; 95% confidence interval, 1.02-1.22; P=.023) and high-risk pregnancy (odds ratio, 4.21; 95% confidence interval, 3.90-5.11; P

Abstract: Objectives: To compare perinatal outcomes in women with vs. without severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection., Methods: Perinatal outcomes in SARS-CoV-2 positive pregnant women who delivered at our institution between October 27th 2020 and January 31st 2021 were compared to SARS-CoV-2 negative pregnancies (contemporary controls) and historical 2019 controls matched by maternal age, pre-pregnancy body mass index and parity. Testing was performed based on symptoms or close contact at any time during pregnancy and as part of universal screening at hospital admission. Multivariable log-linear regression models were used adjusting for potential confounders (p < 0.05 statistically significant)., Results: One thousand three hundred seventeen women delivered at our institution during the study period. 1,124 (85%) tested negative and 193 (15%) positive for SARS-CoV-2. 189 (98%) were infected during third trimester. 19 (10%) were asymptomatic, 171 (89%) had mild to moderate coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and 3 (2%) were critically ill with one case of maternal death. There were no significant differences in preterm birth, small-for-gestational-age birth weight, congenital anomalies, operative delivery, intrapartum hypoxia, and perinatal mortality in SARS-CoV-2 positive pregnancies compared to contemporary reference group or historical controls from pre-COVID-19 period. Labor was more commonly induced in SARS-CoV-2 positive women compared to reference SARS-CoV-2 negative group (68 [35%] vs. 278 [25%], adjusted odds ratio 1.62; 95% confidence interval 1.14-2.28)., Conclusions: SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnancy was not strongly associated with adverse perinatal outcomes. While the majority of SARS-CoV-2 positive women had no or mild/moderate symptoms, 2% were critically ill, with one case of maternal death., (© 2021 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston.)

Abstract: Introduction: Uterine septum is the most common uterine anomaly and is often found during the work-up in primary infertile women. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the potential effect of hysteroscopic septum resection (HSR) on preterm delivery (PTD) in primary infertile women who had singleton pregnancies., Material and Methods: We analyzed 420 singleton pregnancies after primary infertility treatment and compared the PTD rates in women who underwent previous HSR (cases) and women who did not undergo previous operative hysteroscopy or cervical dilation (controls), regardless of the modality of conception (spontaneous or by in vitro fertilization)., Results: We did not find significant differences between cases and controls for the incidence of overall PTD rate ( p = .237), PTD before 32 gestational weeks ( p = .848), and between 32 and 37 gestational weeks ( p = .324), premature rupture of membranes ( p = .419), and neonatal birth weight ( p = .129). Overall, the risk of spontaneous PTD <37 gestational weeks after HSR was not found to be significantly higher compared to controls (RR 1.29, 0.61-2.73 95% CI; p = .561)., Conclusion: According to our results, previous HSR could be not considered a risk factor for PTD in singleton pregnancies, regardless of the modality of conception (spontaneous or by in vitro fertilization).

Abstract: Aim: To evaluate effectiveness and safety of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and dextran-sulfate plasma adsorption (DSA) for extracorporeal removal of soluble Fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) as part of expectant management of preeclampsia at extremely preterm gestational age., Methods: Retrospective case series of six patients with preeclampsia at <28 weeks of gestation, treated with DSA or TPE. Laboratory results, clinical characteristics and neonatal outcomes were collected from charts and National Perinatal Information System., Results: Fetal growth restriction (FGR) was diagnosed in all cases. Pregnancy was prolonged for a median of 14 (range 5-74) days from admission and 10 (3-73) days from first apheresis. A mixed effects model showed a decrease in sFlt-1 and sFlt-1/PlGF ratio during DSA/TPE (significant effect of time [before/after]), which was comparable between DSA and TPE (no effect of procedure type). Median absolute reduction in sFlt-1 was 42% (inter-quartile range [IQR] 13%-57%) during DSA and 34% (16%-40%) during TPE; for sFlt-1/PlGF ratio it was 29% (22%-36%) and 38% (29%-42%), respectively. All procedures were well tolerated by fetuses. Anaphylactoid reaction, often with angioedema, occurred in 4/6 patients undergoing DSA and was attributed to bradykinin activation. One patient developed wound hematoma after cesarean section, possibly attributed to depletion coagulopathy., Conclusions: As potential novel treatment of early preeclampsia, a non-selective and widely available TPE was comparable to DSA regarding sFlt-1 reduction but was associated with fewer side-effects. Both seem to allow maternal stabilization and pregnancy prolongation even when early preeclampsia is complicated by FGR., (© 2021 Wiley Periodicals LLC.)

In addition, women carrying high-risk pregnancies were at higher risk of hospital admission (odds ratio, 1.48; 95% confidence interval, 1.07-2.04; P=.002), presence of severe respiratory symptoms (odds ratio, 2.13; 95% confidence interval, 0.41-3.21; P=.001), admission to the intensive care unit (odds ratio, 2.63; 95% confidence interval, 1.42-4.88), and invasive mechanical ventilation (odds ratio, 2.65; 95% confidence interval, 1.19-5.94; P=.002). When exploring perinatal outcomes, high-risk pregnancies were at high risk of adverse perinatal outcomes (odds ratio, 1.78; 95% confidence interval, 0.15-2.72; P=.009). However, such association was mainly because of the higher incidence of miscarriage in high-risk pregnancies compared with that in low-risk pregnancies (5.3% vs 1.6%, P=.008); furthermore, there was no difference in other explored outcomes between the 2 study groups. At logistic regression analysis, maternal age (odds ratio, 1.12; 95% confidence interval, 1.02-1.22; P=.023) and high-risk pregnancy (odds ratio, 4.21; 95% confidence interval, 3.90-5.11; P<.001) were independently associated with adverse maternal outcomes., Conclusion: High-risk pregnancies complicated by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection were at higher risk of adverse maternal outcomes than low-risk pregnancies complicated by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection., (Copyright © 2021.

Abstract: Study Question: Is preterm delivery an infertility treatment-related adverse outcome in infertile women who conceived after reproductive surgery?, Summary Answer: Compared with matched fertile women, preterm delivery appears to be a modest infertility treatment-related adverse outcome in infertile women who have reproductive surgery then conceived naturally or after IVF/ICSI., What Is Known Already: Most observational studies have shown that women who receive any infertility treatment are more likely to deliver preterm than do fertile women. However, studies on the outcome of pregnancies in infertile women who conceive naturally after reproductive surgery are scarce., Study Design, Size, Duration: This was a single-centre historical two-part study: cohort and matched cohort study. Anonymized data of 761 infertile women who conceived after reproductive surgery and 758 fertile women were obtained by linking three computerized databases from 1 July 2012 to 31 December 2015., Participants/materials, Setting, Methods: In the cohort study, we evaluated the association between the mode of conception and preterm delivery <37 and <32 gestational weeks in 703 infertile women, with a singleton pregnancy who conceived after reproductive surgery, using logistic regression adjusted for relevant co-variates to calculate the adjusted odds ratio with a 95% CI. In the matched cohort study, we evaluated preterm delivery as infertility treatment-related adverse outcome using the propensity score (PS) method. The matched cohort comprised 758 infertile women and 758 fertile women with a twin or singleton pregnancy. Infertile women conceived after reproductive surgery either naturally or through IVF/ICSI. Infertile and fertile women were matched using PS matching. Infertile and fertile women were matched for pre-defined risk factors for preterm delivery. Three infertile women out of an original 761 were not included in the analysis because they lacked all required matching variables. We performed a 1:1 matching with an optimal matching algorithm with a caliper width of the linear predictor of 0.1 standard deviations. The effect of reproductive surgery on preterm delivery was evaluated in the PS-matched sample using Pearson's χ2 test and presented as the odds ratio (OR) with 95% CI. All women delivered at the Department of Perinatology, University Medical Centre Ljubljana, Slovenia., Main Results and the Role of Chance: Among 761 infertile women who conceived after reproductive surgery, 428 (56.2%) women conceived naturally and 333 (43.8%) conceived after IVF/ICSI. The incidence of twin pregnancies was significantly lower after natural conception (2.6% vs 14.1%). Among the 703 infertile women with a singleton pregnancy, 417 (59.3%) conceived naturally and 286 (40.7%) conceived after IVF/ICSI. Adjusted for maternal age and parity in infertile women with singleton pregnancies, IVF/ICSI showed a moderate association with preterm delivery <32 weeks. Compared with natural conception after reproductive surgery, the odds for preterm delivery after IVF/ICSI was 1.07 (95% CI 0.63-1.81) <37 weeks and 2.25 (95% CI 0.80-6.34) <32 weeks. Preterm delivery appears to be a modest infertility treatment-related adverse outcome. Compared with fertile women in the PS-matched sample, infertile women who conceived after reproductive surgery either naturally or after IVF/ICSI the odds of preterm delivery <37 weeks were 1.31 (95% CI 0.97-1.78) and odds of preterm delivery <32 weeks were 1.57 (95% CI 0.78-3.18). However, none of the estimations were statistically significant., Limitations, Reasons for Caution: The main limitations of the study were the retrospective design, the heterogeneity of the types of reproductive surgery performed and underlying reproductive pathologies. The low number of preterm deliveries in the present study might influence the precision of estimations., Wider Implications of the Findings: The present study aims to alter the prevailing opinion that reproductive surgery should only be considered preceding IVF to increase implantation and pregnancy rates after IVF. It implies that in selected infertile women who have had reproductive surgery, a high rate of natural conception, a low rate of multiple pregnancies, and a modest infertility treatment-related effect on preterm delivery should be the reasons to encourage natural conception after reproductive surgery. Furthermore, by allowing for natural conception, we can avoid a high-cost invasive medical procedure., Study Funding/competing Interest(s): The study received no funding. We have no competing interest to declare., Trial Registration Number: N/A., (© The Author(s) 2021.

Abstract: Objectives To evaluate the strength of association between maternal and pregnancy characteristics and the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes in pregnancies with laboratory confirmed COVID-19. Methods Secondary analysis of a multinational, cohort study on all consecutive pregnant women with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 from February 1, 2020 to April 30, 2020 from 73 centers from 22 different countries. A confirmed case of COVID-19 was defined as a positive result on real-time reverse-transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction (RT-PCR) assay of nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens. The primary outcome was a composite adverse fetal outcome, defined as the presence of either abortion (pregnancy loss before 22 weeks of gestations), stillbirth (intrauterine fetal death after 22 weeks of gestation), neonatal death (death of a live-born infant within the first 28 days of life), and perinatal death (either stillbirth or neonatal death). Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate parameters independently associated with the primary outcome. Logistic regression was reported as odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Results Mean gestational age at diagnosis was 30.6±9.5 weeks, with 8.0% of women being diagnosed in the first, 22.2% in the second and 69.8% in the third trimester of pregnancy. There were six miscarriage (2.3%), six intrauterine device (IUD) (2.3) and 5 (2.0%) neonatal deaths, with an overall rate of perinatal death of 4.2% (11/265), thus resulting into 17 cases experiencing and 226 not experiencing composite adverse fetal outcome. Neither stillbirths nor neonatal deaths had congenital anomalies found at antenatal or postnatal evaluation. Furthermore, none of the cases experiencing IUD had signs of impending demise at arterial or venous Doppler. Neonatal deaths were all considered as prematurity-related adverse events. Of the 250 live-born neonates, one (0.4%) was found positive at RT-PCR pharyngeal swabs performed after delivery. The mother was tested positive during the third trimester of pregnancy. The newborn was asymptomatic and had negative RT-PCR test after 14 days of life. At logistic regression analysis, gestational age at diagnosis (OR: 0.85, 95% CI 0.8-0.9 per week increase; p<0.001), birthweight (OR: 1.17, 95% CI 1.09-1.12.7 per 100 g decrease; p=0.012) and maternal ventilatory support, including either need for oxygen or CPAP (OR: 4.12, 95% CI 2.3-7.9; p=0.001) were independently associated with composite adverse fetal outcome. Conclusions Early gestational age at infection, maternal ventilatory supports and low birthweight are the main determinants of adverse perinatal outcomes in fetuses with maternal COVID-19 infection. Conversely, the risk of vertical transmission seems negligible.

Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the effect of low-dose aspirin, which was administered at or before the 16th week of pregnancy due to maternal characteristics and history of a pre-existing medical condition, on prevention of pre-eclampsia, and on the birth of a small-for-gestational-age (SGA) neonate without pre-eclampsia in nulliparas in primary settings., Methods: We performed a case-control study using population-based data on 47 271 nulliparas with a singleton pregnancy who delivered in Slovenia from 2013 to 2017. The treated group received low-dose aspirin. For the untreated group, propensity score matching was used to perform a 1:1 matching. In the matched sample, we calculated the odds ratios (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (95% CI) with a two-way test for pre-eclampsia, as well as SGA neonates., Results: In the treated group (n=584), the odds for an SGA neonate were significantly increased by 42.7% (OR 1.427, 95% CI 1.001-2.034). However, we found no significant effect on the odds for pre-eclampsia (OR 1.308, 95% CI 0.847-2.022)., Conclusions: In anticipation of more substantial population-based data studies, in the Slovenian population, preventive treatment with low-dose aspirin due to maternal characteristics and history of a pre-existing medical condition is not beneficial for the prevention of pre-eclampsia and can harm fetal growth., (© 2020 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics.)

Abstract: Objective: To compare perinatal outcomes before and after implementation of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG) criteria for testing of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM)., Methods: A national, perinatal, registry-based cohort study of prospectively collected data was conducted. Patients with diabetes type 1 or 2 were excluded. Outcomes of 135 786 pregnancies before (January 1, 2004 to May 31, 2010) and 140 524 after (June 1, 2011 to December 31, 2017) the introduction of IADPSG criteria were compared using Student t test and χ 2 test (P<0.05 was significant). Multivariable logistic regression was used to compare outcomes controlling for potential confounders., Results: Prevalence of GDM increased from 2.6% to 9.7% (adjusted odds ratio 3.92; 95% confidence interval 3.78-4.08). Incidence of large-for-gestational age (LGA), macrosomia (birth weight >4500 g), Erb's palsy, and hypertensive disorders in pregnancy decreased despite increasing maternal age and pre-pregnancy obesity. Rates of cesarean delivery increased in both GDM and non-GDM groups, with a less pronounced increase in GDM mothers. Incidence of small-for-gestational age (SGA) increased in GDM but not in non-GDM group., Conclusion: Implementation of IADPSG criteria in a country with a relatively low prevalence of GDM did not result in higher rates of cesarean delivery and was associated with reductions in LGA and hypertensive disorders in pregnancy., (© 2020 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics.)

Abstract: Background Identifying the risk factors for preeclampsia (PE) is essential for the implementation of preventive actions. In the present study, we aimed at exploring the association between total gestational weight gain (GWG) and PE. Methods We performed a population-based cohort survey of 98,820 women with singleton pregnancies who delivered in Slovenia from 2013 to 2017. Aggregated data were obtained from the National Perinatal Information System (NPIS). The main outcome measure was the incidence of PE. The main exposure variable was total GWG standardized for the gestational duration by calculating the z-scores. The associations between total GWG and PE stratified by pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) categories adjusted for a variety of covariates were determined using multivariable logistic regression. We calculated the crude odds ratio (OR) and adjusted odds ratio (aOR) with a 95% confidence interval using a two-way test. Results Excessive GWG was associated with increased odds of PE in all pre-pregnancy BMI categories. The increase in the odds of PE by 445% was the highest in underweight women and by 122% was the lowest in obese women. Low GWG was associated with decreased odds of PE in all pre-pregnancy BMI categories except in normal-weight women with a GWG below -2 standard deviation (SD) and underweight women. The decrease in the odds of PE by 67% was the highest in obese women and by 41% was the lowest in normal-weight women. Conclusion Excessive GWG is a significant risk factor for PE, especially in underweight women, while low GWG is an important protective factor against PE, especially in obese women.

Subjects: Female, Humans, Infant, Newborn, Male, Reference Standards, Retrospective Studies, Slovenia, Birth Weight
Abstract: Objective To produce a customised birthweight standard for Slovenia. Methods This retrospective study used a cohort from the National Perinatal Information System of Slovenia (NPIS). Prospectively collected information from pregnancies delivered in all of Slovenia's 14 maternal hospitals between 1st January 2003 and 31st December 2012 was included. Coefficients were derived using a backward stepwise multiple regression technique. Results A total of 126,627 consecutive deliveries with complete data were included in the multivariable analysis. Maternal height, weight in early pregnancy and parity as well as the baby's sex were identified as physiological variables, with coefficients comparable to findings in other countries. The expected 280-day birthweight, free from pathological influences, of a standard size mother (height 163 cm, weight 64 kg) in her first pregnancy was 3451.3 g. Pathological influences on birthweight within this population included low and high maternal age, low and high body mass index (BMI), smoking, pre-existing and gestational diabetes and pre-existing and gestational hypertension. Conclusion The analysis confirmed the main physiological variables that affect birthweight in studies from other countries, and was able to quantify additional pathological factors of maternal age and gestational diabetes. Development of a country-specific customised birthweight standard will aid clinicians in Slovenia with the distinction between normal and abnormal small-for-gestational age (SGA) fetuses, thus avoiding unnecessary interventions and improving identification of at risk pregnancies, and long-term outcomes for infants.

Abstract: Objective: To explore correlations between the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio and uterine arteries (UtA) Doppler indexes in placental dysfunction-related disorders (PDD)., Methods: We prospectively included women with a singleton pregnancy with preeclampsia (PE) only (n = 22), preeclampsia with fetal growth restriction (FGR) (n = 32), FGR only (n = 12), or normal pregnancy (n = 29)., Results: In PDDs, significantly positive correlations between the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio and the mean UtA pulsatility (mPI-UtA), as well as the resistance index (mRI-UtA) were found (p = 0.015, p = 0.019, respectively), but not in normal pregnancies. PDD with signs of impaired placentation, evidenced by the increased sFlt-1/PlGF ratio and mPI-UtA, was found in 50.0%, and, by the increased sFlt-1/PlGF ratio and mRI-UtA, in 65.2%. PDD without signs of impaired placentation, evidenced by the increased sFlt-1/PlGF ratio but normal mPI-UtA, was found in 24.2%, and, by the increased sFlt-1/PlGF ratio but normal mRI-UtA, in 7.6%. A substantial proportion of women with signs of impaired placentation were diagnosed with FGR with or without PE., Conclusion: In PDD, the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio and UtA Doppler indexes increase proportionally. Correlations between the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio and UtA Doppler indexes might help to distinguish between PDDs with and without impaired placentation. However, further studies are needed to explore the correlations in different phenotypes of PDD.

Abstract: Objective: To explore the associations between birth weight for gestational age (GA) and infant mortality as well as causes of infant death., Study Design: A population-based observational study conducted between 2002 and 2012 included 203,620 non-malformed singleton live births from Slovenia. Poisson regression analyses were performed to estimate the crude relative risk (RR) and adjusted RR (aRR) for infant mortality by birth weight percentiles stratified by the GA subgroups term, moderate-to-late preterm, very preterm and extremely preterm., Results: Compared with appropriate for GA (AGA) term infants (referent-AGA), infant mortality was significantly higher in small for GA (SGA) term infants [aRR=2.79 (1.41-5.50)], with significant cause-specific infant mortality risk for neuromuscular disorders [RR=10.48 (2.62-41.91)]. The differences in infant mortality and cause-specific infant mortality in preterm subgroups between referent-AGA and SGA were insignificant., Conclusions: In the Slovenian population, birth weight for GA is significantly associated with infant mortality only in infants born at term.

Abstract: Objective: The aim of this study was to establish early pregnancy risk indicators for spontaneous twin very preterm birth., Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational population-based study. Twenty-one potential early pregnancy risk factors were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression to determine which of them was independently associated with spontaneous twin very preterm birth., Results: Of 1815 spontaneous twin births 15.3% (277) occurred before 32 weeks. Previous preterm delivery (aOR 3.73; 95% CI, 2.52-5.52), nulliparity (aOR 2.94; 95% CI, 2.09-4.14), body mass index <18.5 (aOR 1.86; 95% CI, 1.12-3.10), body mass index ≥30 (aOR 1.87; 95% CI, 1.21-2.89), hysteroscopic metroplasty (aOR 1.63; 1.07-2.49), conization (aOR 2.05; 95% CI, 1.07-3.94) and monochorionicity (aOR 1.83; 95% CI, 1.28-2.63) were significantly associated with twin very preterm birth., Conclusions: Pending verification in other populations, twin pregnancies at significant risk for spontaneous very preterm birth can be identified in early pregnancy using several risk indicators.

Abstract: Background: Intra-amniotic inflammation with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is a risk factor for fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS) and adverse neonatal outcome., Objectives: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) for detecting FIRS in preterm neonates born after PPROM., Methods: This was a prospective study in the level III neonatal intensive care unit (42 neonates; 23 + 6 to 31 + 6 weeks' gestation) of mothers with PPROM. Umbilical cord blood concentrations of LBP, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-6 and white blood cell count with differential were measured at delivery and 24 h after birth. Neonates were classified into FIRS (n = 22) and no FIRS (n = 20) groups according to clinical criteria and IL-6 level (≥17.5 pg/ml). Histological examination of the placenta and umbilical cord was performed. Neurological examination at 12 months' corrected age was performed., Results: Umbilical cord blood concentration of LBP was significantly higher in the FIRS group than in the no FIRS group at delivery (median 21.6 mg/l vs. median 2.3 mg/l; p < 0.0001) and 24 h after birth (median 17.2 mg/l vs. median 20.0 mg/l; p < 0.001). The area under the ROC curve for FIRS at delivery was 0.98 (95% CI 0.88-1.0) for LBP, 0.92 (95% CI 0.80-0.99) for CRP and 0.82 (95% CI 0.64-0.94) for immature to total neutrophil ratio. Similar results were obtained if FIRS was defined by funisitis. Umbilical cord blood concentration of LBP at delivery was significantly higher in neonates with abnormal neurological exam at 12 months than in those with normal exam (median 19.5 mg/l vs. median 3.75 mg/l; p < 0.015)., Conclusions: In preterm neonates born to asymptomatic women with PPROM, LBP in cord blood at delivery is an excellent diagnostic biomarker of FIRS/funisitis with prognostic potential., (© 2013 S.

Abstract: Objective: To determine whether neutrophil defensins (HNP1-3) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in vaginal fluid after preterm premature rupture of membranes predict fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS), neurological impairment or chorioamnionitis., Design: Prospective study., Setting: Tertiary referral university hospital., Population: Forty-two patients with preterm premature rupture of membranes at <32 weeks., Methods: Levels of HNP1-3 and IL-6 were measured in vaginal fluid obtained by swabs. Mann-Whitney U-test was used to compare HNP1-3 and IL-6 levels in groups with vs. without FIRS, infant death or neurological impairment, and chorioamnionitis (p<0.05 significant). Logistic regression was used to control for potential confounders. Diagnostic accuracies of HNP1-3 and IL-6 were determined by receiver operator characteristics analysis., Main Outcome Measures: Fetal inflammatory response syndrome was defined as neonatal inflammation within 72 hours postpartum. Neurological impairment was defined as motor and/or tone abnormalities at one year of corrected age. Chorioamnionitis was diagnosed histologically., Results: Levels of HNP1-3, but not IL-6, were higher in 12 cases of FIRS (p=0.019 and p=0.256, respectively). Levels of HNP1-3, but not IL-6, were higher in 14 cases of infant death or neurological impairment (p=0.015 and p=0.100, respectively) and, when only survivors were analyzed, in nine cases of neurological impairment (p=0.030 and p=0.187, respectively). Levels of HNP1-3 and IL-6 were higher in 29 cases of chorioamnionitis (p=0.005 and p=0.003, respectively). The differences remained significant after adjustment for gestational age. Levels of HNP1-3 predicted FIRS, infant death or neurological impairment and chorioamnionitis with an area under the curve of 0.75, 0.79 and 0.78, respectively., Conclusions: Elevated vaginal fluid HNP1-3 and IL-6 levels are associated with histological chorioamnionitis. Elevated HNP1-3 can also identify FIRS and predict infant death or neurological impairment., (© 2011 The Authors Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica© 2011 Nordic Federation of Societies of Obstetrics and Gynecology.)
