Conservative Management of a Monochorionic Twin Pregnancy with an Intrauterine Fetal Death at 20-21 Weeks and Successful Term Delivery of the Second Twin.

BACKGROUND One of the obstetric complications of twin pregnancy was the intrauterine death of one fetus. The death that occurs in the first trimester usually leads to fewer complications than the death in the second and third trimester. In the second and third trimesters, single fetal death of twin pregnancy was reported to increase the death, preterm birth, and neurological injury of the surviving co-twin.

Case Report: 5 Cases of Variant Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome Diagnosed on Prenatal Fetal Ultrasound.

BACKGROUND Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a complex left-sided obstructive congenital cardiac condition with several variants. This report is of 5 cases with varying morphology of HLHS diagnosed by fetal prenatal ultrasound at the 4-chamber view (4CV) level. CASE REPORT Five cases were referred by obstetrics and gynecology specialists with preliminary information on visible congenital abnormalities in the third trimester.

Analysis of Clinical Profiles and Echocardiographic Cardiac Outcomes in Peripartum Cardiomyopathy (PPCM) vs. PPCM with Co-Existing Hypertensive Pregnancy Disorder (HPD-PPCM) Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a form of new-onset heart failure that has a high rate of maternal morbidity and mortality. This was the first study to systematically investigate and compare clinical factors and echocardiographic findings between women with PPCM and co-incident hypertensive pregnancy disorders (HPD-PPCM) and PPCM-only women. We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) framework.

Effect of maternal serum magnesium and calcium levels on umbilical glial fibrillary acidic protein levels in preterm labor.

Magnesium can prevent astrocyte cell death and Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) secretion as inflammatory marker in preterm delivery. This study was performed to analyze differences in umbilical cord GFAP levels in preterm labor given magnesium sulfate (MgSO) as treatment group and control group and analyze the correlation between magnesium and calcium levels with umbilical GFAP levels. This quasi-experimental study was performed on 68 patients at Dr.

Assessing the Impact of the Zero Mother Mortality Preeclampsia Program on Maternal Mortality Rates at a Single Center in Bandung, West Java (2015-2022): A Retrospective Study.

BACKGROUND The Zero Mother Mortality Preeclampsia (ZOOM) program was adopted as an accelerated initiative to curb mortality related to hypertensive disorders in pregnancy, including preeclampsia. This single-center, retrospective study in Bandung, West Java, aims to evaluate the impact of the ZOOM program implemented from 2015 to 2022. MATERIAL AND METHODS We analyzed 19,176 childbirths and associated maternal deaths due to hypertension in pregnancy.

Partial hydatidiform mole and coexistent live fetus with placenta previa: a case report.

Unlabelled: Partial molar pregnancy with a coexistent live fetus is very rare. This type of mole mostly ends in the early termination of pregnancy due to an abnormally developed fetus.

Case Presentation: Here, we report a case of a 24-year-old Indonesian woman with an ultrasonographic appearance of partial hydatidiform mole with initial placenta covering the internal uterine ostium in the late first trimester which then became marginal placenta previa in the third trimester.

Comparison of oocyte count, fertilization, and pregnancy rates in adenomyosis patients undergoing In Vitro Fertilization with short and long protocol controlled ovarian stimulation - Restospective study.

Introduction: Adenomyosis (benign gynecological disease) is an endometrial stromal tissue condition that invades the myometrium of the uterus. The administration of a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog before the IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) cycle significantly increases the chances of getting pregnant in adenomyosis patient with infertile condition. There is no best protocol consensus for adenomyosis for now.

Ratio of Serum Calcium to Magnesium Levels on Pregnancy with and without Preeclampsia.

BACKGROUND Preeclampsia increases maternal and perinatal mortality and is affected by calcium and magnesium levels. Reduced extracellular levels of calcium and magnesium constitute the pathogenesis of eclampsia. A reduction in the calcium-magnesium ratio may aid in the detection and prevention of preeclampsia.
