Role of Inflammaging on the Reproductive Function and Pregnancy

Alice Zavatta, Francesca Parisi, Chiara Mando, Chiara Scaccabarozzi, Valeria M. Savasi, Irene Cetin

Summary: Inflammation and cellular senescence play a role in various physiological processes in females, including ovulation, menstruation, placental homeostasis, and delivery. Factors such as lifestyles, nutrition, environmental insults, and pregestational inflammatory diseases can lead to chronic excessive inflammation and inflammaging, resulting in decreased fertility, poor pregnancy outcomes, impaired placental function, fetal development, and increased future health risks in offspring. Maladaptation to pregnancy and obstetric diseases can contribute to maternal inflammaging, which can further accelerate aging processes and the development of chronic diseases. Maternal inflammaging can also impact future adult health through transgenerational effects. Therefore, effective interventions should be implemented to reduce modifiable factors contributing to the inflammaging process and improve public health.

Comprehensive assessment of the implementation of maternal immunization programs in Italy: A national survey across maternity care units

Luz Maria Vilca, Valentina Sala, Antonio Chiantera, Nicola Colacurci, Irene Cetin

Summary: This study assessed the characteristics and integration of immunization services into prenatal care provided by maternity care units (MCUs) in Italy. The findings showed that most MCUs provided vaccine information, but only 22% had an onsite vaccination clinic. Less than half of the MCUs offered vaccines during prenatal visits, and 75% of them required women to set up an extra appointment for vaccination. Additionally, only 20% of MCUs managed to record vaccines in their own medical records. Institutional barriers and lack of certain vaccine-related services were identified as the main reasons for missed vaccination opportunities. Embedding maternal immunization programs within prenatal care services could improve vaccine coverage.

Placental physioxia is based on spatial and temporal variations of placental oxygenation throughout pregnancy

Berthold Huppertz

Summary: Due to the rarity of in vivo measurements of placental oxygenation, scientists had to rely on a limited number of studies that provided some data on the topic. This scarcity led to the development of hypotheses that hindered an objective understanding of placental oxygenation for many years. However, new hypotheses are now emerging, offering fresh perspectives on the topic. Particularly in the field of preeclampsia, previous hypotheses on placental oxygenation have led scientists astray. This review article presents available in vivo placental oxygen data from 8 to 40 weeks of gestation, comparing them with physiological oxygen concentrations and discussing oxygen measurements in preeclampsia cases.
