Priekšlaicīgu dzemdību izraisītu grūtniecības komplikāciju izvērtējums.
2017
Cēlonis: Grūtniecības komplikācijas ir galvenie iemesli mātes un augļa mortality.Pregnancy komplikāciju mainās dažādās populāciju, BMI un vecuma grupā. Saskaņā ar Global Health observatoriju, kuri katru dienu 2015. gadā, aptuveni 830 sievietes nomira dēļ komplikācijas grūtniecības un bērna piedzimšanas. Tāpēc ir ļoti svarīgi, lai analizētu grūtniecības komplikācijas gan priekšlaicīgas dzemdības un normālu termiņa piegāde (vadības grupa). Mērķi: Pētījuma mērķis ir analizēt dažas grūtniecības komplikācijas un salīdzināt tos no priekšlaicīgas dzemdības un kontroles grupu, un salīdzināt tos ar vecuma grupu un ĶMI grupu. Materiāli un metodes: Pētījums modelis ietver datus, kas savākti no Rig…
Occupational Exposure to Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals and Birth Weight and Length of Gestation: A European Meta-Analysis
2016
BACKGROUND: Women of reproductive age can be exposed to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) at work, and exposure to EDCs in pregnancy may affect fetal growth. OBJECTIVES: We assessed whether maternal occupational exposure to EDCs during pregnancy as classified by application of a job exposure matrix was associated with birth weight, term low birth weight (LBW), length of gestation, and preterm delivery. METHODS: Using individual participant data from 133,957 mother-child pairs in 13 European cohorts spanning births from 1994 through 2011, we linked maternal job titles with exposure to 10 EDC groups as assessed through a job exposure matrix. For each group, we combined the two levels of e…
Placental metal concentrations and birth outcomes: The Environment and Childhood (INMA) project
2019
To examine the association of placental levels of arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), manganese (Mn), and chromium (Cr) with birth outcomes (birth weight, length, and head circumference, low birth weight [LBW], gestational age, preterm delivery, and small for gestational age [SGA]) in mother-child pairs from the Environment and Childhood (INMA) Project in Spain.Metal concentrations were measured in placenta tissue samples randomly selected from five INMA cohorts. Data on birth outcomes were obtained from medical records. Associations were assessed in a sub-sample of 327 mother-infant pairs by regression models adjusted for confounding factors and for all metals simultaneous…
The negative predictive value of cervical interleukin-6 for the risk assessment of preterm birth.
2013
To determine the potential clinical use of cervical interleukin-6 (IL-6) as a negative predictor of preterm birth in symptomatic women.Observational prospective study carried out in a tertiary hospital.We studied 100 singleton pregnant women with threatened preterm delivery and intact membranes, between 24 and 34 weeks, recruited during the period 2006-2008. A cervical swab for IL-6 detection was taken and a transvaginal ultrasound scan was performed for measuring the cervical length.Five women delivered within 2 d and six women within 7 d. A high cervical IL-6 concentration was found in these women. The area under the ROC curve for cervical IL-6 was 0.97 for deliveries within 2 d after the…
From prematurity to parenting stress: The mediating role of perinatal post-traumatic stress disorder
2013
Preterm delivery may lead to the emergence of symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress disorder (PTSD), which may, in turn, affect the quality of the mother-child relationship. The aim of this study is to shed light on the development of parenting stress in mothers of preterm and full-term children. It is hypothesized that PTSD symptoms mediate the relationship between preterm/full-term birth and the levels of parenting stress. Perinatal PTSD, parenting stress and social support were assessed in 156 mothers of full-term children and 87 mothers of preterm children. Mothers of preterm children experienced more post-traumatic stress and parenting stress than mothers of full-term children. However, th…
Vaginal progesterone decreases preterm birth and neonatal morbidity and mortality in women with a twin gestation and a short cervix: an updated meta‐…
2017
Objective To assess the efficacy of vaginal progesterone for the prevention of preterm birth and neonatal morbidity and mortality in asymptomatic women with a twin gestation and a sonographic short cervix (cervical length ≤ 25 mm) in the mid-trimester. Methods This was an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of individual patient data (IPD) from randomized controlled trials comparing vaginal progesterone with placebo/no treatment in women with a twin gestation and a mid-trimester sonographic cervical length ≤ 25 mm. MEDLINE, EMBASE, POPLINE, CINAHL and LILACS (all from inception to 31 December 2016), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Research Registers of ongoing tr…
