Maternal psychosocial stress during pregnancy and placenta weight: evidence from a national cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
To study in a large-scale cohort with prospective data the associations between psychosocial stress during pregnancy and placenta weight at birth. Animal data suggest that the placenta is involved in stress-related fetal programming.; We defined a priori

A White Paper on Advancing Long‐Acting Therapeutics for Maternal and Pediatric Health by Bridging Gaps in Clinical Research, Access and Regulation

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
As use cases for long‐acting therapeutics expand across clinical indications, there is a critical need to ensure the inclusion of women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, infants and children—populations with a historical gap in the availability of interventions already approved for use in adults.

Aberrant placental structure is corrected with repeated nanoparticle-mediated IGF1 treatments in a Guinea pig model of fetal growth restriction

open access: yesTranslational Research in Anatomy
Background: Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is most commonly due to placental insufficiency. There are currently no treatments for placental insufficiency or FGR, and the only intervention is iatrogenic pre-term delivery. We have previously shown efficacy

The effect of maternal hemoglobin concentration on fetal birth weight according to trimesters

open access: yes, 2015
Conclusions: Low hemoglobin concentrations in the first trimester of gestation seem to be associated with low fetal birth weights. Anemia can directly cause poor in utero fetal growth due to inadequate oxygen flow to the placental tissue or it can be an ...

High incidence of Y‐chromosome mosaicism in male and female individuals with mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy (MOGHE) is an underrecognized pediatric cortical lesion associated with somatic X‐linked SLC35A2 variants in approximately 50% of individuals. The genetic etiology in individuals without detectable SLC35A2 mutations remains undefined, which limits

ZIKV Disrupts Placental Ultrastructure and Drug Transporter Expression in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Congenital Zika virus (ZIKV) infection can induce fetal brain abnormalities. Here, we investigated whether maternal ZIKV infection affects placental physiology and metabolic transport potential and impacts the fetal outcome, regardless of viral presence ...

Flowcytometric assessment of fetomaternal hemorrhage during external cephalic version at term [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
External cephalic version (ECV) at term is a safe procedure and reduces the incidence of cesarean sections for breech presentation. One of the known complications, however, is an ECV-related disruption of the placental barrier and a subsequent ...

Severe maternal and neonatal morbidity or mortality in forceps versus cesarean birth in the second stage of labor: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Approximately one in four first‐time mothers reach the second stage of labor but cannot have a spontaneous vaginal birth, necessitating an intervention such as forceps to facilitate birth. Objective This study synthesizes evidence comparing severe maternal morbidity (SMM) and neonatal morbidity or mortality (SNMM) following forceps ...
