Abstract:

Background:Takayasu’s arteritis (TA) is commonly seen in women of childbearing ages; therefore, reproductive health of TA patients is an important issue.Objectives:We aimed to evaluate the fertility and pregnancy (PG) outcomes of TA patients before and after diagnosis.Methods:In the prospective database of the Hacettepe University Vasculitis Research Centre (HUVAC), 202 TA patients (female =184) meeting the 1990 ACR criteria were registered by the end of February 2020. 120 patients who could be reached out gynaecological records and marriage status, were included in the study. We identified 233 PG in 82 of included these 120 TA patients (Figure 1). Demographic and clinical features, comorbidities, distribution of vascular involvement, obstetrical histories and outcomes were retrospectively evaluated. Patients were classified according to a novel proposed disease clusters (C1: Abdominal Predominant, C2: Aortic Arch Predominant, C3: Focal Disease) using the defined decision tree.Results:12 of 96 (12.5%) married TA patients had infertility being defined as not being able to get pregnant after one year (or longer) of unprotected sex. 20 (16.7%) women had menopause before the age of 45, being defined as early menopause (EM). Compared to normal population, infertility (12.5% vs. 8.1%) and EM ratios (16.7% vs. 7.6%) seem to be increased in TA patients. (1, 2)200 PG had occurred before TA diagnosis (bTA) in 71 women, and 33 PG were observed after TA diagnosis (aTA) diagnosis in 19 women (two patients diagnosed during PG). According to novel disease subsets, aTA patients classified into C1 (n=3; 15.7%), C2 (n=9; 47.3%) and C3 (n=6; 31.5%). One patient could not be classified.GHT was seen in 4 (12.1%) patients being the most frequent maternal complication in aTA group. Most common fetal complications were prematurity, IUGR and LBW in both groups (Table 1). Even fetal complications were more frequent in aTA group, it was not statistically significant [11 (33.3%) vs. 43 (21.5%), p=0.18 respectively]. However, maternal complications were significantly more common in aTA group [22 (11.0%) vs. 8 (24.2%), p=0.048]. There was no difference for the obstetrical outcomes in terms of novel TA classification.Conclusion:This study showed increased infertility and EM ratios in TA patients. PG of aTA had more complications in terms of maternal complications. Fetal complications were more frequent in PG of aTA but not statistically significant. Larger cohort data is required.References:[1]doi:10.1017/s0021932017000244.[2]doi:10.1016/j.maturitas.2019.03.008.PregnanciespBefore TA (n=200)After TA (n=33)Number of Patients7119NPAge at TA diagnosis, years mean (SD)38.2 (13.1)24.0 (6.6)Age at first pregnancy21.7 (5.0)27.6 (5.0)Comorbidities/CV Risk factors n(%)n (%)p- Smoking22 (31)3 (15.8)>0.05- Dyslipidemia14 (19.7)1 (5.3)- Hypertension29 (40.8)9 (47.4)- Diabetes mellitus8 (11.3)0 (0)Maternal Complicationsn (%)Numbers of pregnancies with any maternal complications22 (11.0)8 (24.2)0.048- Gestational hypertension6 (3.0)4 (12,1)NP- PROM6 (3.0)1 (3.0)- GDM0 (0)0 (0)- Bleeding (Antepartum/postpatum)6 (3.0)2 (6.1)- Preeclampsia0 (0.0)0 (0.0)- İnfection5 (2.5)1 (3.0)- Placenta previa0 (0)1 (3.0)Fetal Complicationsn (%)pNumbers of pregnancies with any fetal complications43 (21.5)11 (33.3)0.180- LBW16 (8.0)6 (18.2)NP- IUGR20 (1.0)5 (15.2)- Preterm birth13 (6.5)7 (21.2)- CNS complications2 (1.0)1 (3.0)- Cardiovascular complications3 (1.5)0 (0)- RDS_BPD4 (2.0)0 (0)- NICU admission12 (6.0)1 (3.0)- Other5 (2.5)0 (0)- Neonatal death5 (2.5)0 (0)- Retinopathy of prematurity1 (0.5)0 (0)- Stillbirth7 (3.5)0 (0)Deliveryn (%)PVaginal delivery128 (64)6 (18.2)<0.001Cesarean24 (12)13 (39.4)<0.001Spontaneous abortus21 (10.5)7 (21.2)0.088Termination of pregnancy18 (9.0)7 (21.2)0.061Abbreviations: BPD: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia, CNS: Central nervous system, GDM: Gestational diabetes mellitus, IUGR: Intrauterin growth restriction, LBW: Low birth weight, NICU: Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, NP: Not performed PROM: Premature rupture of membranes, RDS: Respiratory distress syndromeDisclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract:

Abstract Women with acquired and inherited thrombophilia are thought to be at increased risk for pregnancy complications, including recurrent pregnancy loss and, depending on the type of thrombophilia, severe preeclampsia. This review discusses the associations between the types of thrombophilia and types of complications, as well as the currently available clinical trial evidence regarding the use of aspirin and heparin to prevent these pregnancy complications. In women with antiphospholipid syndrome, guidelines recommend prescribing aspirin and heparin to women with recurrent miscarriage. The same regimen is suggested for late pregnancy complications by some, but not all, experts. Aspirin or low-molecular-weight heparin to improve pregnancy outcome in women with unexplained recurrent miscarriage has no benefit and should not be prescribed. Whether anticoagulant therapy prevents recurrent miscarriage in women with inherited thrombophilia or in women with severe pregnancy complications remains controversial because of inconsistent results from trials. Aspirin modestly decreases the risk of severe preeclampsia in women at high risk.

Abstract:

Thalassemia is a blood disorder passed down through families (inherited) in which the body makes an abnormal form or inadequate amount of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. The disorder results in large numbers of red blood cells being destroyed, which leads to anemia. This abnormal alpha- to beta-chain ratio causes the unpaired chains to precipitate and causes destruction of red blood cell precursors in the bone marrow (ineffective erythropoiesis) and circulation (hemolysis). Affected individuals with thalassemia have variable degrees of anemia and extramedullary hematopoiesis, which in turn can cause bone changes, impaired growth, and iron overload. Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), also known as recurrent miscarriages, is defined by the consecutive loss of two or more pregnancies with the same partner and having no more than one living child. Objective of the current review was to determine the maternal and fetal outcomes of women complicated with thalassemia .Conclusion: There are many changes as complications of thalassemia and the stress of pregnancy can make the symptoms of thalassemia worse . pregnancy in thalassemia should be considered high risk and should always be preceded by a complete preconception assessment.

Abstract:

ZusammenfassungVenöse Thrombosen und Lungenembolien sind die führende Ursache schwangerschaftsbedingter Morbidität und Mortalität. Frauen mit Thrombophilie haben ein erhöhtes Thromboserisiko während der Schwangerschaft und des Puerperiums. Bei Frauen mit hereditärem Thromboserisikofaktor wurde ein relatives Risiko von 3,4 bis 15,2 für eine schwangerschaftsassoziierte Thrombose festgestellt. Frauen mit vorangegangener Thrombose haben während der Schwangerschaft ein 3,5-mal höheres Rezidivrisiko als sonst.Die Daten über eine Assoziation zwischen Thrombophilie und Aborten oder Präeklampsie sind widersprüchlich. Abgesehen von einer etablierten Risikoerhöhung für Aborte durch Antiphospholipid-Antikörper gibt es Hinweise für eine Bedeutung des Antithrombinmangels, der Hyperhomozysteinämie, des Faktor V Leiden, der Prothrombin- G20210A-Variation und des Protein-S-Mangels. Ein Zusammenhang zwischen Thrombophilie und Präeklampsie ist weniger gut belegt. Die Zahl verfügbarer, prospektiver Studien ist begrenzt, und diese fanden keine Risikoerhöhung in einem unselektionierten Patientengut mit Thromboserisikofaktor. Verfügbar sind Daten einer kontrollierten Studie über die Prävention eines Schwangerschaftsverlusts mittels niedermolekularem Heparin (NMH), welches eine starke positive Wirkung zeigte. Thrombophilie-Screening mag bei Frauen mit Aborten, insbesondere ab der 10 Schwangerschaftswoche, angezeigt sein und eine Prophylaxe mit NMH sollte bei jenen Frauen überlegt werden, bei denen eine Thrombophilie festgestellt wird. Weitere prospektive Studien und kontrollierte Interventionsstudien werden dringend benötigt.

Abstract:

To determine whether mothers with complicated pregnancies are at increased risk of postpartum depression and whether their children are at increased risk of being perceived as vulnerable, the investigators conducted an interview survey of mothers of 1095 children aged 4 to 8 in a community-based sample of primary care pediatric practices. The offspring were viewed as vulnerable by 17% of the women with severe pregnancy complications and 9% of the women without pregnancy complications (relative risk = 1.88; 95% confidence interval = 1.11, 2.63). Women with a severe complication of pregnancy were significantly more likely to report postpartum depression than those without a complication (27% vs 11%; relative risk = 2.45; 95% confidence interval = 1.55, 3.01). These relationships persisted after adjustment for prematurity, neonatal hospitalization, and demographic factors. It is concluded that pregnancy complications may place a woman at increased risk of postpartum depression and may have important effects on a mother's long-term perceptions of her child's vulnerability to illness.

Abstract:

Background: Early Pregnancy Complications can cause significant morbidity and mortality. Pregnant women an present with h/o amenorrhea, abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding or incidental scan finding of missed abortion, ectopic pregnancy and vesicular mole, features of hypermesis gravidorum like fatigue, nausea, vomiting, dryness and diminished urine output. The objective of present study was to analyze the incidence of various early pregnancy complications, assess the protocols for diagnosing these complications and their management.Methods: Present study was conducted at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Gujarat Adani Institute of Medical Science, Bhuj, Kutch, Gujarat. All the women with first trimester pregnancy with different complications were included in this study while those women with uneventful first trimester were excluded. The inducted women were registered on pre-designed proforma. Studied variables including demographic details, gestational period, type of complications, risk factors, treatment and outcome.Results: Out of 740 total admissions 439 abortions of which incomplete abortion was 262, missed abortions were 132, threatened abortion 42 and 3 cases of septic abortion, ectopic pregnancy 154, molar pregnancy33, hyperemesis 31. There were about 63 cases of non-pregnancy related complication reported during early pregnancy like 31 with UTI, 9 with renal colic, 2 cases of appendicitis, four cases of asymptomatic cholelithiasis, 2 cases of hepatitis, 5 cases of ovarian cyst complicating pregnancy, 2 cases of ovarian torsion. Their mean age was 30.8+6.8 years.Conclusions: Study was successful in creating a confidence among trainees when following the recommended protocols as well as delivering clinical benefits to the hospital, patients and staff. Early gynecological consultation and bedside ultrasound scanning within the emergency department were key requirements for any emergency concerns.

Abstract:

Objectives: To evaluate maternal and neonatal complications and pregnancy outcomes of twin pregnancies. Methods: The cross sectional study was conducted using retrospective data on the twin pregnancies with more than 28 weeks of gestational age. The study used data over a period of five years, from March 10, 2010 to March 9, 2015 in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, GMC Teaching Hospital Pokhara. Results: Of the 50 twin pregnancies, the most common maternal complication was preterm delivery (40%). Other maternal complications were anemia (36%), pregnancy induced hypertension (14%), premature rupture of membranes (14%), postpartum hemorrhage (12%) and antepartum hemorrhage (6%). Median gestational age at delivery was 37 weeks. Most common route of delivery was cesarean section (66%). Most common neonatal complication was low birth weight (48%) births first twin and second twin 56%. Conclusion: Twin pregnancy has high maternal and neonatal complications, especially preterm delivery that increases the risk of significant neonatal morbidity and mortality.

Abstract:

Objectives We aimed to assess women’s perceptions on the long-term risks for cardiovascular disease (CVD) after major pregnancy complications. Methods Women who experienced major pregnancy complications and those who experienced uncomplicated pregnancies were invited to participate in a qualitative study. Focus group discussions (FGDs) and self-administered questionnaires were used to explore: The knowledge of long-term sequelae after experiencing a major pregnancy complication; Importance of education on heart health; The practicality of referral to a clinic after pregnancy complications; Willingness for regular postpartum clinic visits after pregnancy complications. A thematic qualitative analysis was undertaken. Results 26 women participated in four FGDs. The majority of women did not know of the association between major pregnancy complications and CVD. The main views expressed were: Women who experience pregnancy complications should receive education on improving heart health; An appointment for the first CVD risk screening visit needs to be made prior to discharge from the delivery suite; Women will benefit by having the option to select between a hospital and a general-practitioner based model of follow up. Conclusions These views are important in developing postpartum strategies to reduce CVD risk among women who experience pregnancy complications.

Abstract:

Objective The aim of this study was to determine if cervical dysplasia during pregnancy is associated with pregnancy complications, including preterm delivery and pre-eclampsia. Study Design A retrospective cohort analyses was performed with propensity-score matching to compare complication rates between pregnant women without history of abnormal cervical cancer screening and pregnant women referred for cervical dysplasia assessment to colposcopy clinic. A composite outcome of pregnancy complications included intra-amniotic infection, preterm premature rupture of membranes, pre-eclampsia, preterm delivery, low birth weight, oligohydramnios, and intrauterine fetal demise. Complication rates were compared between women with and without cervical dysplasia using logistic regression models. Results Overall cohort included 2,814 women, 279 of whom attended colposcopy clinic for cervical dysplasia assessment. Propensity score–matched cohort included 1,459 women, 274 of whom attended colposcopy clinic. Composite complications of pregnancy rates were not significantly different between control and colposcopy groups in both cohorts (25.3% and 29.0%, P = 0.20; 26.5% and 29.3%, P = 0.45). Dysplasia was not associated with composite pregnancy complications in overall and matched cohorts (odds ratio [OR] = 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.77–1.56) and (OR = 1.03, 95% CI: 0.72–1.49). When cervical dysplasia was determined on biopsy or colposcopy, dysplasia was not associated with complications in the overall and matched cohorts. Conclusion Biopsy and/or colposcopy determined cervical dysplasia during pregnancy was not associated with pregnancy complications.

Abstract:

The endothelium, which constitutes the inner layer of blood vessels and lymphatic structures, plays an important role in various physiological functions. Alterations in structure, integrity and function of the endothelial layer during pregnancy have been associated with numerous gestational complications, including clinically significant disorders, such as preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, and diabetes. While numerous experimental studies have focused on establishing the role of endothelial dysfunction in pathophysiology of these gestational complications, their mechanisms remain unknown. Numerous biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction have been proposed, together with the mechanisms by which they relate to individual gestational complications. However, more studies are required to determine clinically relevant markers specific to a gestational complication of interest, as currently most of them present a significant overlap. Although the independent diagnostic value of such markers remains to be insufficient for implementation in standard clinical practice at the moment, inclusion of certain markers in predictive multifactorial models can improve their prognostic value. The future of the research in this field lies in the fine tuning of the clinical markers to be used, as well as identifying possible therapeutic techniques to prevent or reverse endothelial damage.
