Article Synopsis
- - Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a significant cause of maternal health complications after childbirth, with twin pregnancies showing a higher risk for PPH compared to single births.
- - A review of 21 studies involving 23,330 twin pregnancies found that the incidence of PPH was 10.9% for vaginal deliveries and 27.0% for cesarean sections, with in vitro fertilization (IVF) being the most common conception method (62.0%).
- - The findings indicate a notable risk of PPH in twin deliveries and highlight the need for additional high-quality research to better understand this issue and validate the results.
Topic: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-VEGF and panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) for the treatment of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). The outcomes examined are changes in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), neovascularization (NV), central macular thickness (CMT), and adverse outcomes.
