Introduction: In women receiving chronic dialysis, fertility is impaired. The objectives of this study were to estimate the incidence rate of pregnancies among women of childbearing age (15-50 years) receiving chronic dialysis from 2006 to 2020 in France, to describe the pregnancy outcomes and renal management during pregnancy.

Methods: This national observational, retrospective study was based on data from the French REIN registry matched with the National Health Data System.

Article Synopsis
  • Preeclampsia is a complex condition linked to high blood pressure and organ dysfunction, which can be diagnosed even without protein in urine.
  • The condition involves immune interactions between the mother and fetus, where mechanisms like reduced major histocompatibility complex expression help the fetus evade the mother's immune response.
  • Regulatory T cells and decidual natural killer cells play crucial roles in regulating fetal development and promoting necessary changes in the blood vessels of the uterus for a healthy pregnancy.

To identify novel solutions to improve rice yield under rising temperatures, molecular components of thermotolerance must be better understood. Alternative splicing (AS) is a major post-transcriptional mechanism impacting plant tolerance against stresses, including heat stress (HS). AS is largely regulated by splicing factors (SFs) and recent studies have shown their involvement in temperature response.

Background: The presence of contaminants in cannabis presents a potential health hazard to recreational users and susceptible patients with medical conditions. Because of the federally illegal status of cannabis, there are no unified regulatory guidelines mitigating the public health risk of cannabis contaminants.

Objective: To inform further research and provide solutions to the public health risk of cannabis contaminants at a national level, we examined the current landscape of state-level contaminant regulations, and cannabis contaminants of concern, as well as patient populations susceptible to contaminants.

Background: Maintenance haemodialysis (MHD) patients have a high risk of initial mortality from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, long-term consequences of this disease in the MHD population are poorly described. We report the clinical presentation, outcome and long-term follow-up of MHD patients affected by COVID-19 in a multicentric cohort from the Paris, France area.
