A History of Cesarean Birth as a Risk Factor for Postpartum Hemorrhage Even After Successful Planned Vaginal Birth.

Background: It is unclear if a history of cesarean birth (CB) is a risk factor for postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) even after a successful planned vaginal birth.

Methods: A historical retrospective cohort study from all deliveries (42,456) between 2004 and 2019. Inclusion criteria were as follows: (i) women with only one previous CB; (ii) liveborn cephalic singleton pregnancy and term spontaneous labor; (iii) successful planned vaginal birth; (iv) no operative vaginal delivery; and (v) no history of PPH.

Hyperglycaemia in Pregnancy Is Less Frequent in Smokers: A French Observational Study of 15,801 Women.

We aimed to explore the still-debated association between smoking and hyperglycaemia in pregnancy (HIP). A multiethnic prospective study of 15,801 women who delivered at Jean Verdier University Hospital between 2012 and 2018. Of these, 13,943 (88.

Prevalence and association of placental lesions with obstetrical features and outcome: data from French prospective study.

Purpose: Since the Consensus Statement diffused by the Amsterdam Placental Workshop Group, knowledge of the meaning of placental vascular malperfusion has become essential in the unavoidable analysis of obstetrical history in a patient followed for autoimmune disease or any other maternal comorbidity. We aimed to analyse the prevalence of various placental lesions from a 6-months prospective observational study and to correlate the various placental profiles to obstetrical outcome, maternal diseases and pregnancy treatments. The frequency of foetal vascular malperfusion lesion could be estimated at 8.

Glycemic status during pregnancy according to fasting and post-load glucose values: The association with adverse pregnancy outcomes. An observational study.

Aim: Prognosis of treated hyperglycemia in pregnancy (HIP) may differ according to whether diagnosis following an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is based on high fasting and/or high post-load glucose values.

Methods: From a multiethnic prospective study, we included 8,339 women screened for HIP after 22 weeks of gestation. We evaluated the risk of large-for-gestational-age (LGA) infant (primary endpoint) and other adverse pregnancy outcomes according to HIP status in four groups defined as follows: no HIP (n = 6,832, reference); isolated fasting HIP (n = 465), isolated post-load HIP (n = 646), and fasting and post-load HIP (n = 396).
