Background: Vitamin D deficiency is associated with several obstetric complications in singleton pregnancy. The aim of this study was to assess whether vitamin D levels affect the outcomes of twin pregnancy and if targeted supplementation can improve perinatal outcomes.
Methods: The serum vitamin D levels of 143 women with twin pregnancies were measured during their first trimester.
Objectives: To compare outcomes of monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA) twin pregnancies by fertilization (IVF) vs. spontaneously conceived counterparts.
Methods: Retrospective comparison.
The specific effects of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on twin pregnancy outcomes, which are at high risk per se, are unclear. The present study analyzes outcomes of twin pregnancies complicated by GDM (n = 227) by comparing them with GDM singleton pregnancies (n = 1060) and with twin pregnancies without GDM (n = 1008), all followed up at Sant'Anna Hospital, Turin (Italy), between January 2010 and March 2020. The prevalence of GDM among twin pregnancies (n = 1235) was 18.
