The percentages of low birth weight (LBW) increased from 7.7% in 2005 to 11.3% 2011 and declined 8.1% 2017. For very (VLBW) individuals, the proportion -1.0% annually, 2.5% 1.4% Among moderately (MLBW) first 12.8% 5.0% 9.3% 2011, then -3.8% 9.4% 7.0% macrosomia monotone decreased 4.0% 2017, an annual decline -4.0%. Multiple regression analyses showed that boys, maternal age, hypertensive disorders complicating pregnancy (HDCP), diabetes were significant risk factors for LBW. Boys,...
The existing gestational weight gain (GWG) recommendations for twin pregnancies are lacking underweight individuals and not stratified by obesity class.To identify optimal GWG ranges associated with reduced adverse perinatal outcomes prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) categories in pregnancies.This population-based cohort study of using data from the National Center Health Statistics was conducted between January 1, 2014, December 31, 2018. Statistical analysis performed October 24, 2021, to...
Placenta previa with antepartum hemorrhage (APH) is common and closely related to maternal fetal morbidity mortality. It of the utmost importance prepare for possibility APH using perinatal factors prior delivery. To develop validate a nomogram predicting in women placenta based on factors. This was retrospective prospective cohort study pregnant previa. The model developed validated study. Multivariate logistic regression applied discover independent variables predict APH. An Excel form...
To explore the prospective correlation between serum metals before 24 weeks' gestation and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) or glucose in late second trimester among southern Chinese pregnant women. A total of 8169 women were included our retrospective cohort study. Logistic regression was used to investigate relationships (Manganese [Mn], copper [Cu], lead [Pb], calcium [Ca], zinc [Zn], magnesium [Mg]) GDM. Quantile performed detect shifts associations with three time-points distribution...
Objective To compare the outcomes between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) vs. non-GDM twin gestations. Methods A retrospective cohort study of 2,151 pregnancies was performed in a tertiary hospital Foshan, China, 2012–2020. Pregnancy and neonatal were compared women with without GDM using 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) multivariable logistic models. For outcomes, generalized estimating equation (GEE) approach used to address intertwin correlation. Results Of participants, 472...
Abstract Background Thyroid function is known to be closely linked with type 2 diabetes, but data on the association between thyroid and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are inconsistent. Methods A total of 2849 pregnant women were included in this retrospective study. Serum concentrations indicators (free tetraiodothyronine, FT4; thyroid-stimulating hormone, TSH; peroxidase antibody, TPO Ab) obtained from a clinical laboratory. The presence GDM drawn medical records. subtypes...
Gestational weight gain (GWG) has implications for perinatal outcomes, the guidelines maternal gain, however, remain understudied among twin pregnancies. This study aimed to assess associations between outcomes and GWG pregnancies, based on US institute of Medicine (IOM) 2009 guidelines.A retrospective cohort pregnant women with viable twins ≥26 weeks gestation, was conducted in Foshan, China, during July 2015 June 2018. Maternal BMI categorized Chinese standard as below, within above IOM...
Abstract Staphylococci are common causes of healthcare-associated and community-associated infections. However, limited data available on the prevalence, phenotypes molecular characteristics in metro system around world. 320 surface samples were collected from Guangzhou to isolate characterize strains. Of samples, 75.6% (242/320) contaminated with . The isolates, especially methicillin resistant resistance most antibiotics, 79.8% (193/242) classified as multidrug (MDR) 8 strains...
Optimal gestational weight change (GWC) is little known among pregnant women with diabetes mellitus (GDM). This study aimed to explore the optimal GWC ranges for GDM and validate these compared Institute of Medicine (IOM) guidelines. A population-based cohort using natality data from National Center Health Statistics in United States included 1,338,460 mother–infant pairs 2014 2020. Poisson regression models were performed identify (GDM targets) associated acceptable risks (<10% increase) a...
Abstract Background Pathological skin scars, caused by cesarean section, affected younger mothers esthetically and psychosocially to some extent frustrated obstetricians dermatologists. Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs), as a population of multipotent cells, are abundant in human tissues, providing several possibilities for their effects on scar tissues. Herein, we performed randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-arm clinical trial, aiming assess the efficacy...
Abstract Introduction This study aimed to evaluate the preterm birth and additional perinatal outcomes between spontaneous in vitro fertilization (IVF) intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) dichorionic‐diamnionic (DCDA) twin pregnancies. Material methods retrospective cohort was conducted a tertiary university‐affiliated medical center. All women with DCDA pregnancies were considered for inclusion. The primary outcome of interest <37 weeks gestation secondary included birth, iatrogenic...
The management of poor sleep during pregnancy is important for maternal and foetal health. aim the present study was to investigate prevalence quality risk factors different trimesters better pregnancy.A cross-sectional conducted among pregnant women in Foshan Women's Children's Hospital. In total, 2281 were analysed, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) used assess quality. Cluster logistic regression analyse all participants, models built identify potential pregnancy.Over half...
Background: Staphylococcus aureus , particularly methicillin-resistant S. (MRSA), in mothers can cause serious outcomes neonates. We aimed to elucidate the associations of and MRSA carriage between Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted August November 2015 two hospitals Shenzhen, China. Chinese pregnant women their neonates who met inclusion criteria were included this study; samples relevant information collected. assessed maternal–neonatal by using Poisson regression models....
Abstract Background Previous evidence has suggested that lower gestational vitamin D levels might increase the risks of adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes. The results remain inconsistent require further exploration. Methods A total 2814 Chinese mother-infant pairs were included in this retrospective cohort study. Serum concentrations 25(OH)D reviewed early (16.3 ± 2.3 weeks). Outcomes maternal diabetes mellitus (GDM), cesarean section, fetal distress, preterm birth, low weight (LBW),...
Evidence suggests that diabetes might cause an increase in colonization of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and methicillin-resistant S. (MRSA) community settings. We carried out a cross-sectional study to determine the prevalence influencing factors MRSA nasal among community-based population, identify characteristics isolated strains.A total 956 participants from 11 settings were included study.Of 529 participants, 46 colonized with 22 MRSA.
