Incidence and risk factors for postpartum infections: A Norwegian cohort study, 2012–2020

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Nationwide registry data from 516 874 deliveries in Norway (2012–2020) show that postpartum infections are common and that endometritis/puerperal sepsis is increasing. Delivery‐related factors, especially emergency cesarean section, postpartum hemorrhage, and chorioamnionitis, show the strongest associations.

From haemostasis to immunity: The expanding frontiers of platelet biology

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Platelets are versatile cells whose functions extend far beyond haemostasis and thrombosis, actively regulating innate and adaptive immunity, angiogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, liver regeneration, atherosclerosis and tumour metastasis. This demonstrates their central role in various physiological processes and multiple life‐threatening diseases ...

The Effect of Polycythemia Vera on Pregnancy Complications. The Analysis of an American Population Database With Over 9 Million Deliveries

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Polycythemia Vera (PV) is characterized by overproduction of erythrocytes, leading to a hypercoagulable state. Evidence regarding associations between PV and pregnancy outcomes is limited. The aim of our study was to provide robust evidence regarding the prevalence of pregnancy complications in women with PV.

Perioperative von Willebrand Factor and Factor VIII Kinetics in von Willebrand Disease Patients Treated With Different Clotting Factor Concentrates

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with von Willebrand disease (VWD) undergoing surgery require von Willebrand factor (VWF) and factor VIII (FVIII) supplementation for adequate haemostasis. Plasma‐derived clotting factor concentrates differ in their VWF:FVIII activity ratios: high‐ratio product (HRP, 10:1), intermediate‐ratio product (IRP, 2.4:1), and low ...

How Delayed Cord Clamping Saves Newborn Lives

Children
Interest in the subject of umbilical cord clamping is long-standing. New evidence reveals that placental transfusion, facilitated by delayed cord clamping (DCC), reduces death and need for blood transfusions for preterm infants without evidence of harm ...

Thrombocytopenia in Pregnancy: A 5‐Year Analysis of Characteristics and Practices From a Tertiary Academic Center

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Moderate‐to‐severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count < 100 × 109/L) occurs in fewer than 1% of pregnancies, posing management challenges, particularly surrounding eligibility for neuraxial anesthesia. Although recent anesthesia guidelines recommend a platelet threshold ≥ 70 × 109/L, outcomes data applying these recommendations in ...

Harnessing the Therapeutic Potential of Cell Secretomes and Extracellular Vesicles for Craniofacial Regenerative Applications

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The scoping review summarizes the current preclinical and clinical evidence for the use of “cell‐free” therapies in craniofacial (periodontal, bone and soft‐tissue) regeneration. It also aims to highlight key challenges and strategies towards the clinical translation of these therapies.

Extracting vitalities: Cuts in Indigenous women's bodies‐territories (Brazil)

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, I explore the connections between the medicalization of childbirth and environmental devastation through Guarani‐Mbyá understandings of life and the living. I argue that the cuts made to Guarani‐Mbyá women's vaginas (episiotomies) in Brazilian hospitals are experienced and situated on the same cosmopolitical level as the cuts ...
