Role of Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index, Systemic Inflammation Response Index, and Pan-Immune Inflammation Value in the Prediction of Preeclampsia: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the role of systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), and pan-immune inflammation value (PIV) calculated from first trimester complete blood count (CBC) in predicting preeclampsia without (PE) and with severe features (PE-SF).

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 126 women with PE, 126 women with PE-SF, and 126 women with healthy, normotensive pregnancies delivered at a large tertiary referral hospital between 2018 and 2022. The main outcome measures were SII, SIRI, and PIV.

Atraumatic forceps-guided insertion of the cervical pessary: a new technique to prevent preterm birth in women with asymptomatic cervical shortening.

Objectives: As previous studies on the use of a cervical pessary to prevent preterm birth (PTB) have produced conflicting results, we aimed to investigate the feasibility, acceptability and safety of a new technique for inserting a cervical pessary and compare it with the traditional technique in patients at high risk of PTB.

Methods: Women at high risk of PTB treated with a cervical pessary between January 2018 and January 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. After applying exclusion criteria, a total of 68 eligible patients were identified and retrospectively analyzed.
