BACKGROUND: Asthma is the most common chronic respiratory disease in pregnancy, affecting approximately 8-10% of pregnant women. Uncontrolled asthma is associated with adverse perinatal outcomes, including low birth weight, preterm birth, and maternal complications such as pre-eclampsia. SUMMARY: A current approach to the management of chronic airway diseases is based on targeting treatable traits. The aim of this review was to define treatable traits in pregnant women with asthma based on recent literature and to determine personalized treatment options according to these traits...

Vitamin D deficiency increases the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. The high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency worldwide requires the analysis of scientific publications to make recommendations for the prevention, management and treatment of vitamin D deficiency in pregnant women. The purpose of the research was to explore the relationship between pathology and pregnancy outcomes with serum 25-hydroxycholecalciferol levels and vitamin D supplementation. A literature search was performed for systematic literature reviews with meta-analyses published between January 2018 and February 2023...

Given prior literature focused on the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease framework, there is strong rationale to hypothesize that reducing depression in the prenatal period will cause improvements in offspring cardiometabolic health. The current review outlines evidence that prenatal depression is associated with offspring cardiometabolic risk and health behaviors. We review evidence of these associations in humans and in nonhuman animals at multiple developmental periods, from the prenatal period (maternal preeclampsia, gestational diabetes), neonatal period (preterm birth, small size at birth), infancy (rapid weight gain), childhood and adolescence (high blood pressure, impaired glucose-insulin homeostasis, unfavorable lipid profiles, abdominal obesity), and into adulthood (diabetes, cardiovascular disease)...

BACKGROUND: Poor birth outcomes such as preterm birth/delivery disproportionately affect African Americans compared to White individuals. Reasons for this disparity are likely multifactorial, and include prenatal psychosocial stressors, and attendant increased lipid peroxidation; however, empirical data linking psychosocial stressors during pregnancy to oxidative status are limited. METHODS: We used established scales to measure five psychosocial stressors. Maternal adverse childhood experiences, financial stress, social support, anxiety, and depression were measured among 50 African American and White pregnant women enrolled in the Stress and Health in Pregnancy cohort...

INTRODUCTION: Our retrospective study aimed to investigate whether parents of twins encounter heightened psychological and emotional distress one year after childbirth, in comparison to parents of singletons within an Italian cohort. METHODS: Exclusion criteria included multiparity, preterm birth, congenital anomalies, stillbirth, >2 fetus pregnancies, and pre-existing maternal mental health disorders. Out of the 300 couples (600 parents) invited to participate, 286 parents (158 mothers, 128 fathers) successfully completed a self-administered survey...

OBJECTIVE: There is uncertainty around the safety of SSRIs for treating depression during pregnancy. Nevertheless, the use of SSRIs has been gradually increasing, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic period. We aimed to (1) characterize maternal depression rate and use of SSRIs in a recent 10-year period, (2) address confounding by indication, as well as socioeconomic and environmental factors, and (3) evaluate associations of the timing of SSRI exposure in pregnancy with risk for preterm birth (PTB), low birthweight (LBW), and small for gestational age (SGA) infants among women with depression before pregnancy...

BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE: "Ping-pong fractures" (PPF) can occur in neonates and result in cosmetic deformity and local mass effect. Standard treatment involves surgical elevation of the depressed bone when the indentation is considerable or cosmetically apparent. Surgical correction of PPF subjects patients to the risks of surgery and general anesthesia. This article and corresponding video demonstrate a novel means of correcting PPF at bedside without surgery or anesthesia. We used a hospital-grade breast pump connected to a custom-fabricated flange to successfully elevate PPF in two neonates...

OBJECTIVES: This study assessed the association between MT and weight gain among preterm infants hospitalized in Neonatal Intensive Care Units. METHODS: Data collected during the international, randomized, Longitudinal Study of Music Therapy's Effectiveness for Premature Infants and their Caregivers (LongSTEP) study were compared between the MT group and the standard care (SC) group. Weights were recorded at birth, enrollment, and discharge. Weight percentiles, Z-scores, weight gain velocity, and extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) were calculated...

INTRODUCTION: Elevating Voices, Addressing Depression, Toxic Stress and Equity (EleVATE) is a group prenatal care (GC) model designed to improve pregnancy outcomes and promote health equity for Black birthing people. This article outlines the foundational community-engaged process to develop EleVATE GC and pilot study results. METHODS: We used community-based participatory research principles and the Ferguson Commission Report to guide creation of EleVATE GC. The intervention, designed by and for Black birthing people, centers trauma-informed care, antiracism, and integrates behavioral health strategies into group prenatal care to address unmet mental health needs...

BACKGROUND: Recent research suggests that children born after suspected preterm labor may conform a potential cluster with different Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder features, depending on the time of birth. However, the symptoms evolution and its predictors remain unknown in this population.

BACKGROUND: Postpartum depression is a common and serious mental health problem that is affecting an increasing percentage of the world's population. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of postpartum depressive symptoms in Beijing, China, during the COVID-19 pandemic and identify several potential risk factors. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional observational study conducted at Peking University First Hospital from 2020 to 2021. Women who delivered and had postpartum reviews at 42 days after delivery were invited to complete the Chinese version of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) under the guidance of trained nurses...

BACKGROUND: 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 bariatric surgery is an effective way to treat obesity, it can also result in complications and may be linked to having small for gestational age (SGA) babies. This cohort study protocol aims to compare the maternal and fetal/neonatal outcomes of two groups of Iranian pregnant women: those who have undergone bariatric surgery and those who are obese but have not had bariatric surgery...

Psychological birth trauma and childbirth-related posttraumatic stress disorder represent a substantial burden of disease with 6.6 million mothers and 1.7 million fathers or co-parents affected by childbirth-related posttraumatic stress disorder worldwide each year. There is mounting evidence to indicate that parents who develop childbirth-related posttraumatic stress disorder do so as a direct consequence of a traumatic childbirth experience. High-risk groups, such as those who experience preterm birth, stillbirth, or preeclampsia, have higher prevalence rates...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Although the understanding of pre-eclampsia (PE) has improved, there is still insufficient knowledge on the exact etiology and pathophysiological mechanisms. Dysregulation of angiogenic factors has emerged as a significant contributing factor. Among these factors, angiopoietins (Ang-1 and Ang-2) have gained considerable attention due to their crucial role in regulating vascular development and endothelial function. This study explored the maternal serum levels of angiopoietins and perinatal outcomes in PE...

AIM: Globally, 1 in 10 babies are born preterm. Families with preterm born infants may suffer strains related to the presence of a preterm child. To date, most evidence focuses on the outcome of children born preterm and of their parents. Our objective was to investigate the evidence on the impact of having a preterm born sibling on cognitive function, mental health and quality of life of term-born siblings and critically appraise the evidence. METHODS: We searched five electronic databases, Google Scholar and reference lists...
