Summary: This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of pregnant women with moderate to severe COVID-19 following remdesivir administration. The study found that compared to pregnant women who did not receive remdesivir, those who received treatment had a shorter hospital stay, lower oxygen requirements, and a lower risk of developing preeclampsia. These findings provide initial evidence for the efficacy of remdesivir in pregnant women.

Summary: The study conducted in Saad Abualila Maternity Hospital in Khartoum, Sudan indicated that breastfeeding might reduce the risk for preeclampsia in parous women. More extensive studies are needed to confirm this association.

Summary: The rates of breastfeeding initiation and maintenance in women with epilepsy were significantly lower than in healthy women without epilepsy, and were associated with factors such as breastfeeding counseling, lactation consultation, and the type of antiseizure medication used. Identifying potential barriers to breastfeeding in women with epilepsy may help in developing intervention strategies to improve breastfeeding rates and positive health outcomes for both the women and their infants.

Summary: This study evaluated the predictive value of the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio in women with chronic hypertension for delivery due to superimposed preeclampsia, finding that angiogenic imbalance can predict delivery related to superimposed preeclampsia and is associated with a significantly shorter time to delivery interval.

Summary: The study revealed that the expression of UII and pyroptosis-related molecules is elevated in severe preeclampsia patients compared to healthy pregnancies. UII is positively correlated with pyroptosis markers and these proteins are positively correlated with physiological indicators (systolic blood pressure and urine protein) in patients with severe preeclampsia.

Summary: There is limited knowledge regarding the factors influencing non-exclusive breastfeeding (NEBF) practices in immigrant populations, particularly in Latin America. This study aimed to determine the association between maternal factors and the prevalence of NEBF in Haitian immigrant women in southern Chile. The findings showed that Haitian immigrant women without legal residency, recently arrived, with low educational attainment, and limited knowledge of breastfeeding are at higher risk of not providing exclusive breastfeeding. However, employment, access to basic services, and Spanish proficiency were found to be protective factors associated with higher rates of exclusive breastfeeding.

Summary: This study found that elevated nonpregnant von Willebrand factor (NPVWF) antigen levels are associated with severe obstetric morbidity (SOM) in women with hereditary thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (hTTP). These elevated NPVWF antigen levels can also predict the response to fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion. Women with NPVWF antigen levels >195% may benefit from increased surveillance and more intensive FFP treatment during pregnancy.

Summary: This study found that younger women with previous preeclampsia had a slightly higher prevalence of coronary atherosclerosis compared to women from the general population. Preeclampsia remained an independent risk factor for coronary atherosclerosis after adjusting for traditional cardiovascular risk factors.

Summary: The study compared blood lead levels in preeclamptic women with healthy pregnant women, finding significantly higher BLL in the PE group. Furthermore, BLL showed a significant positive relationship with the presence of PE.

Summary: In this study, the aim was to investigate the variables associated with progression to preeclampsia with severe features in parturients already diagnosed with mild hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. The results showed that early gestational age at presentation and superimposed preeclampsia were the only independent factors associated with progression to severe features.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the effects of pregnancy on the pharmacokinetics of bedaquiline and describe the exposure of bedaquiline in the breast milk of mothers treated for rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis. The results showed lower exposure of bedaquiline in pregnant women and higher concentrations in breast milk. Breastfed infants received doses of bedaquiline equivalent to maternal doses.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the pregnancy outcomes of conservative treatment for preeclampsia with severe features. The results showed that the rate of pregnancy prolongation with conservative management was 65%, with a median prolongation time of 2.9 days. The high urine protein/creatinine ratio (UPCI) at admission was found to be an independent factor for less than 48-hour pregnancy prolongation with conservative treatment. However, there were no significant differences in maternal and fetal outcomes between the two groups.

Summary: This study compared the differences in exclusive breastfeeding and breastfeeding initiation among women with different types of diabetes, and found that women with type 1 diabetes had a higher intention for exclusive breastfeeding. At discharge, women with type 1 diabetes had lower rates of exclusive breastfeeding and breastfeeding initiation and a higher rate of formula feeding compared to women with type 2 diabetes.

Summary: Excessive gestational weight gain is associated with low exclusive breastfeeding and any breastfeeding rates, as well as with diabetes and obesity in women. However, excessive gestational weight gain is not an independent predictor of low exclusive breastfeeding or any breastfeeding at discharge.
