Pregnancy outcome in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome.
Journal of Maternal-fetal & Neonatal Medicine 2011 November
OBJECTIVE: To investigate pregnancy outcome of patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS).
METHODS: A retrospective cohort study comparing pregnancies of women with and without FMS was conducted. Multivariable logistic regression models was performed to control for confounders
RESULTS: Deliveries of 112 women with FMS were compared with a control group of 487 deliveries of women without FMS. Parturients with FMS had higher rates of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR; 7.1% vs. 1.0%, p = 0.001), recurrent abortions (9.8% vs. 1.8%, p < 0.001), gestational diabetes mellitus (14.3% vs. 7%, p = 0.012), and polyhydramnios (12.5% vs. 1.6%, p < 0.001). These patients had lower rates of preterm deliveries (PTD; 6.3% vs. 16.7%, p = 0.018). No significant differences were noted between the groups regarding the rates of cesarean deliveries (CD) (15.2% vs. 21.2%, p = 0.149) and perinatal outcomes such as low Apgar scores (<7) at 1 and 5 min (4.5% vs. 6.7%, p = 0.292 and 1.2% vs. 0.6%, p = 0.372; respectively). Using two multiple logistic regression models, the positive association between FMS and IUGR (adjusted OR = 4.1, 95% CI 1.2-13.2; p = 0.02) and the negative association with PTD (OR = 0.3, 95% CI 0.2-0.6; p = 0.001) remained significant.
CONCLUSION: FMS is an independent risk factor for intrauterine growth restriction. Nevertheless, it is associated with lower rates of preterm deliveries.
