The likelihood of avoiding intubation and the risks of continuing the pregnancy under invasive ventilation remain undetermined. We report the management and outcome of pregnant women with pneumonia related to SARS-CoV-2 admitted to the ICU of tertiary maternity hospitals of the Paris area.

Secondary objectives were to identify the association between trajectories and the risk of mortality.
Methods And Results: A retrospective, observational study was conducted using data extracted from the Echantillon Généraliste des Bénéficiaires database, covering the period from 1 January 2008 to 31 December 2018.

Background: Asthma is a diverse condition that differs with age and sex. However, it remains unclear how sex, age of asthma onset, and/or their interaction influence clinical expression of more problematic adult "difficult" asthma.
Objectives: To better understand the clinical features of difficult asthma within a real-world clinical setting using novel phenotypic classification, stratifying subjects by sex and age of asthma onset.
