To develop effective strategies to reduce preterm birth, it is important to address the causes of and risk factors for this condition. Maternal metabolism plays a crucial role in pregnancy outcomes, as it affects the availability of nutrients, energy, and other essential factors required for fetal development and growth. Several aspects of maternal metabolism can potentially contribute to the risk of preterm delivery. Severe energy deficiency as observed in women suffering from eating disorders can affect the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis resulting in amenorrhea and infertility, suggesting that maintaining a minimum maternal weight is essential to uphold a functional reproductive system, thus ensuring a successful pregnancy. Maternal undernutrition as observed in past famine and observations and animal studies may affect fetal growth and trigger an early activation of the parturition pathway leading to preterm delivery. A correlation exists between maternal size and gestation duration. Obesity is associated with a higher likelihood of medically indicated preterm birth. Low maternal body mass index and low gestational weight gain during pregnancy have been associated with preterm birth, potentially due to fetal-maternal metabolic imbalance; however, the exact mechanism remains to be determined, thus emphasizing the importance of appropriate weight management before and during pregnancy. Addressing metabolic-related risk factors for preterm delivery requires a comprehensive approach to reduce the burden of preterm delivery and improve neonatal outcomes. This review aims to explore various aspects of fetal-maternal metabolic imbalance that could potentially contribute to preterm birth. By doing so, we suggest a novel and comprehensive approach that sheds light on the intricate connection between fetal-maternal imbalance and the susceptibility to preterm birth.","PeriodicalId":53202,"journal":{"name":"Maternal-Fetal Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136010020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods Based on the scoping literature review and the 2014 edition of preterm birth of Clinical Diagnosis and Treatment guidelines, we generated the Delphi survey statements with five evaluation dimensions, including the definition of preterm birth, exclusion of risk factors for preterm birth, prevention, and prediction of preterm birth, treatment of preterm birth, and evaluation of intervention outcomes of preterm birth. Obstetric experts from the Obstetrics and Gynecology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association formed the expert group for this survey. All the obstetric experts participated two-round modified Delphi survey via an anonymous online survey and an online panel. Mean scores, rank sum, full score ratio, and the lowest score ratio were calculated to reflect the concentration of expert opinions. The coefficient of variation and Kendall W coefficient were used to reflect the expert opinion coordination degree of the survey statement. Results The expert response rate for both rounds of surveys was 100% (41/41). Experts reached an agreement on 36 statements in five dimensions of preterm birth prevention and treatment in the first round of the survey and reached a consensus on the remaining 13 statements in the second round. A total of 49 statements (mean scores ≥3, full score ratio ≥20%, coefficient of variation ≤0.3) were explicitly included in this guideline to form recommendations, while the remaining three clinical issues that did not reach a consensus require further determination based on evidence quality. The Kendall W coefficient in the two rounds of the Delphi survey were 0.20 ( P < 0.001) and 0.29 ( P < 0.001). Conclusion The five dimensions and 49 statements, agreed upon through a two-round Delphi study, determined the recommended statements to be included in the updated guidelines for the prevention and treatment of preterm birth in China.

It aimed to identify the transcriptomic signature essential for the occurrence of PTB and evaluate its predictive value in early, mid, and late pregnancy and in women with threatened preterm labor (TPTL). Methods Blood transcriptome data of pregnant women were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. The activity of biological signatures was assessed using gene set enrichment analysis and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis. The correlation among molecules in the interleukin 6 (IL6) signature and between IL6 signaling activity and the gestational week of delivery and latent period were evaluated by Pearson correlation analysis. The effects of molecules associated with the IL6 signature were fitted using logistic regression analysis; the predictive value of both the IL6 signature and IL6 alone were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves and pregnancy maintenance probability was assessed using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Differential analysis was performed using the DEseq2 and limma algorithms. Results Circulatory IL6 signaling activity increased significantly in cases with preterm labor than in those with term pregnancies (normalized enrichment score (NES) = 1.857, P = 0.001). The IL6 signature (on which IL6 signaling is based) was subsequently considered as the candidate biomarker for PTB. The area under the curve (AUC) values for PTB prediction (using the IL6 signature) in early, mid, and late pregnancy were 0.810, 0.695, and 0.779, respectively; these values were considerably higher than those for IL6 alone. In addition, the pregnancy curves of women with abnormal IL6 signature differed significantly from those with normal signature. In pregnant women who eventually had preterm deliveries, circulatory IL6 signaling activity was lower in early pregnancy (NES = −1.420, P = 0.031) and higher than normal in mid (NES = 1.671, P = 0.002) and late pregnancy (NES = 2.350, P < 0.001). In women with TPTL, the AUC values for PTB prediction (or PTB within 7 days and 48 hours) using the IL6 signature were 0.761, 0.829, and 0.836, respectively; the up-regulation of IL6 signaling activity and its correlation with the gestational week of delivery ( r = −0.260, P = 0.001) and latency period ( r = −0.203, P = 0.012) were more significant than in other women. Conclusion Our findings suggest that the IL6 signature may predict PTB, even in early pregnancy (although the predictive power is relatively weak in mid pregnancy) and is particularly effective in symptomatic women. These findings may contribute to the development of an effective predictive and monitoring system for PTB, thereby reducing maternal and fetal risk.","PeriodicalId":53202,"journal":{"name":"Maternal-Fetal Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136010004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The standard approach is vaginal cervical cerclage, prolonging pregnancy duration and mitigating prematurity risks. In some cases, however, transvaginal cerclage failure or technical non-feasibility of placing a vaginal suture due to a short length or scarred cervix render abdominal cerclage a viable choice. This can be achieved via laparoscopic or open abdominal approaches.5–7 Laparoscopic abdominal cerclage (LAC) has emerged as a primary approach with comparable effectiveness to open abdominal cerclage, and fewer complications.7–10 LAC reportedly has a 70.0%–83.3% success rate for third-trimester delivery, and a live birth rate exceeding 90.0%,10 but failure still occurs.9 In cases of cervix dilatation after LAC failure laparoscopic cerclage removal may be suggested, but consensus on management is lacking. Emergency cervical cerclage (ECC) is recommended for women with cervical dilatation and exposed fetal membrane between 16+0 and 27+6 weeks of gestation, without bleeding, infection, or uterine activity.11,12 Accordingly, ECC may also be an effective way to prolong the duration of pregnancy, and reduce pregnancy loss in women with failed LAC. Whether ECC prolongs pregnancy in women with LAC failure has not been fully clarified, however, and neither have the potential complications of ECC in such women. The current study assessed the prolongation of pregnancy associated with ECC after LAC failure during the second trimester of pregnancy and evaluated the safety of ECC after LAC failure. Materials and methods The present retrospective observational study included women who underwent ECC during the second trimester of pregnancy between October 2016 and May 2020. Women exhibiting cervical dilation, both with or without exposed unruptured fetal membranes following LAC were included. The study was conducted as part of a broader ongoing retrospective investigation involving pregnant women receiving antenatal care at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University and approved by ethical committees of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University (2022-458).

In order to improve the survival rate and quality of preterm infants, there is critical need to identify the specific mechanisms underlying the initiation of labor. Pregnancy represents a period of constant interactive dialog between mother and fetus. A disturbance in the pattern of maternal-fetal communication can induce physiological or pathological labor. Although a number of studies have investigated the contributions of maternal factors to the initiation of labor, the concept that fetal organ development and maternal adaptation are coordinated has emerged over recent years, thus emphasizing that factors of fetal origin may serve as hormonal signals for the initiation of labor. In this review, we summarize and discuss several specific mechanisms by which factors of fetal origin may influence parturition during term or preterm labor, including the specific regulation of fetal organs, including the lungs and accessory organs during pregnancy. Future research may focus on the specific pathways by which signals from the fetal lungs and other fetal organs interact with the maternal system to initiate eventual labor.","PeriodicalId":53202,"journal":{"name":"Maternal-Fetal Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136010001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been described since the 19th century1–3 as a method of delivering the fetus during a second stage cesarean section (CS).4,5 More recently, reports have been published on inadvertent laparoelytrotomy during emergency CS at full cervical dilatation, due to the anatomical changes that occur with prolonged duration of obstructed labor. There has been an increasing incidence CS performed at full dilatation, 6,7 likely due to increasing rates of failed operative delivery and reduced attempts at instrumental delivery. The difficulties of second-stage CS arise from the impaction of the fetal head in the maternal pelvis. With increased duration of the second stage of labor, fetal head impaction and stretching of the lower uterine section distort the normal anatomical landmarks that differentiate the vagina, cervix, and uterine body.8 De Lee9 described retraction of the cervical lip with cephalad advancement of the vagina, such that in obstructed labor, the cervix may retract to a point where most of the fetus lies within the vagina.1 Hence, a standard incision on what appears to be the lower uterine segment may risk incising into the bladder, vagina (i.e., inadvertent elytrotomy) or cervix. The possible levels of uterine incision during a CS in the second stage of labor are shown in Figure 1.Figure 1: Possible levels of uterine incision during second stage of labor. A Uterine incision at the original attachment of the uterovesical fold after retracting down the bladder. B At this level, inadvertent incision may involve the fully dilated and retracted cervix, vagina, or both. C Level of vaginal incision below the cervix after bladder has been retracted (laparoelytrotomy).Prolonged second stage of labor, emergency setting,10 and multiparity5 are described risk factors for elytrotomy. Complications encompass hemorrhage from uterine artery injury, bladder and ureteric injury and fistula, infection,11 laceration of adjacent ligaments, difficult approximation of the vaginal incision,12 uterine and cervical trauma, and fetal trauma.5 We present our repair technique during a case of inadvertent elytrotomy during an emergency second-stage CS. We also propose strategies for prevention, including our innovative classification of levels of the impacted fetal head and methods for disimpaction at each level. Our experience Our case was a middle-aged primigravida in her 40s who was admitted for term labor and progressed from a cervical dilatation of 2.5 cm to os full within 11.5 hours. However, she remained at full cervical dilatation for 3 hours before eventual delivery because of a combination of poor maternal efforts at pushing and a likely element of cephalopelvic disproportion. In view of nonreassuring fetal heart rate abnormalities, decision was made to expedite delivery.

Historically, it was done to know more about the anatomical details and pathological findings of the diseases. Extremely preterm (EP) infants are infants born at less than 28 weeks of gestation.1 According to the World Health Organization, more than 90% of EP babies born in low-income countries die within the first few days of life compared with less than 10% of EP babies in high-income settings.2 In addition to the high mortality, the EP infants had poor neurodevelopmental outcome.3 Among the causes of in-hospital mortality, necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), respiratory distress syndrome, intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), infections, and gastrointestinal causes are among the top.4 Autopsy (postmortem) of preterm infants can provide vital information about the cause of death and the accuracy of antemortem clinical diagnosis. In the preterm infant, because clinical manifestations are often nonspecific, diagnostic errors like unintentionally delayed, wrong, or missed diagnoses could occur. An autopsy could help in these scenarios. It has been reported that frequently classical autopsies have revised the initial diagnosis.5,6 However, conventional autopsy might have religious, social, and cultural reservations. Additionally, with technological advancement, an alternative could be offered to families. An autopsy could provide valuable information and contribute to determining the definitive cause of death (COD) in preterm infants. In a series of reports regarding the timing of death, 66% to 73% of preterm infants had died in less than 28 days of life.5,6 Hoffsten et al.5 looked at the incidence of autopsy in preterm infants between 2002 and 2018 and found that in 34.9% of the cases, CODs were revised by these autopsies. Interestingly, the revised CODs after autopsy included the expected problems of EP infants (NEC, IVH, etc.). Except for congenital anomalies and chromosomal abnormities (5.0%–9.9%),5 most of the diagnoses (pneumothorax, IVH, NEC) are known to occur in EP infants. Similarly, Elder and Zuccollo6 studied 74 extremely EP infants, of which 29 died in less than 28 days and had autopsies. The reported new diagnoses on autopsy included hemorrhages (pulmonary, IVH, cerebral), asphyxia, congenital malformations, heart defects, and iatrogenic cause—long line perforation of the right atrium and traumatic perforation of the stomach. The study was done in 2005; with the advent of technological advances, an echocardiogram is readily available to diagnose cardiac conditions earlier. A fetal echocardiogram is an integral part of antenatal ultrasound. Postnatal ultrasound screening for IVH is routine in neonatal intensive care unit.
