The impact and management of hyperemesis gravidarum: Current and future perspectives
Abstract Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a severe form of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy affecting around 1%–3% of pregnancies worldwide and is the most common reason for hospital admission in early pregnancy. HG can have lasting consequences for both pregnant individuals and their offspring.

Use of the Abbott i‐STAT®1 point of care device for hCG quantification in early pregnancy
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the use of the Abbott i‐STAT®1 point‐of‐care‐test (POCT) device for measurement of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to support the management of early pregnancy complications in a remote early pregnancy unit (EPU). Methods Women attending the EPU who required an hCG blood test were invited to take part in the study ...

The role of tumor necrosis factor-α and natural killer cells in uterine artery function and pregnancy outcome in the stroke prone spontaneously hypertensive rat [PDF]
Women with chronic hypertension are at increased risk of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. We have previously characterized the stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRSP) as a model of deficient uterine artery function and adverse ...

Macrophage and Preeclampsia: Macrophage Polarization Imbalance at the Maternal‐Fetal Interface
The development and progression of preeclampsia (PE) are associated with immune‐inflammatory responses induced by placental dysfunction. The polarization imbalance of decidual macrophages, particularly the increase in M1 polarization, exacerbates placental inflammation.

ABSTRACT At different stages of life, from embryonic to postnatal, varying oxygen concentrations modulate cellular gene expression by enhancing or repressing hypoxia‐inducible transcription factors. During embryonic/fetal life, these genes encode proteins involved in adapting to a low‐oxygen environment, including the induction of specific enzymes ...

Placenta-specific methylation of the vitamin D 24-hydroxylase gene: implications for feedback autoregulation of active vitamin D levels at the fetomaternal interface [PDF]
Plasma concentrations of biologically active vitamin D (1,25- (OH)2D) are tightly controlled via feedback regulation of renal 1-hydroxylase (CYP27B1; positive) and 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1; catabolic) enzymes.

In this study, we show that the sulfur compound commonly found in cruciferous and allium vegetables and the main human metabolite of S‐methyl‐L‐cysteine sulfoxide, called S‐methyl methanethiosulfonate (MMTSO), alters energy metabolism in DU145 prostate cancer cells.
