Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how inflammatory myopathies (IM) affect pregnancy outcomes for mothers and their newborns, addressing a gap in existing research.
- Using data from a large inpatient sample (1999-2015), the study finds that among nearly 14 million pregnant women, only 308 had IM, with increasing prevalence over time.
- Results reveal that women with IM face higher risks of complications like preeclampsia and infections, while their infants are more likely to experience prematurity and growth issues, suggesting a need for specialized care during these pregnancies.
