Maternal and neonatal outcome among women with early-onset preeclampsia and late-onset preeclampsia.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the differences in characteristics and outcomes of early-onset and late-onset Preeclampsia.

Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted on female patients giving birth with preeclampsia admitted into the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Dr. Hasan Sadikin Hospital Bandung from January 2020 to December 2022 who met the study criteria.

Persistent Reverse End Diastolic Flow in Fetal Middle Cerebral Artery: A Rare Finding with Poor Outcomes.

Doppler findings of persistent reverse end-diastolic flow (PREDF) in a fetal middle cerebral artery (MCA) are a very rare sonographic finding and are a marker of poor fetal condition. This finding often leads to intrauterine fetal death or early neonatal death. Reverse end-diastolic flow in the middle cerebral artery is an advanced hemodynamic event.

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.

Epigenetic Regulation Interplays with Endometriosis Pathogenesis in Low-Birth-Weight Patients via the Progesterone Receptor B-VEGF-DNMT1 Axis.

Background: Low birth weight (LBW) is a risk factor associated with endometriosis. Our study aimed to analyze the risk of endometriosis in women with a LBW history and the relationships of progesterone receptor B (PR-B) gene promoter methylation, DNA methyltransferase-1 (DNMT1) expression, PR-B expression, and vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) with endometriosis.

Methods: This study was conducted in two stages, a retrospective case-control design and a cross-sectional design, with 52 cases of endometriosis and 30 controls, which were further subdivided into LBW and non-LBW groups, at Hasan Sadikin General Hospital and its hospital networks from October 2017 to August 2021.

The Effects of Follicular Fluid 25(OH)D Concentration on Intrafollicular Estradiol Level, Oocyte Quality, and Fertilization Rate in Women Who Underwent IVF Program.

Objective: 25(OH)D (Vitamin D) has been investigated for its role in the process of folliculogenesis and thus affects the quality of oocyte produced by in vitro fertilization. Our aims were to investigate the effects of 25(OH)D levels in follicular fluid, follicular estradiol level, successful fertilization rate in IVF treatment and the correlation between 25(OH)D levels in follicular fluid with the oocyte quality.

Design And Setting: This is an analytic observational study with cross-sectional design conducted between September-November 2018 in two fertility clinics at tertiary hospitals in Bandung, Indonesia.

The use of modified glove-like abdominal flap for reconstruction of contracture following burns of dorsal hand and fingers: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Burn contracture has been a challenge for its acquired functional disabilities and deformities. Surgical reconstruction poses a significant challenge for optimal aesthetic and functional improvement. Super thin abdominal skin pedicle flap can be used, but it has only one pedicle from one site of abdomen and needs tissue expander for a larger defect.

INOVASIA Study: A Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial of Pravastatin to Prevent Preeclampsia in High-Risk Patients.

Objective: Our objective was to determine if treatment with pravastatin prevents preeclampsia in pregnant patients at risk of preeclampsia.

Materials And Methods: The study was performed in four major tertiary hospitals in Surabaya, Bandung, and Makassar between 2017 and 2021. Pregnant women at high risk of developing preeclampsia were recruited and randomized into an intervention group and control group.

Influence of antenatal magnesium sulfate application on cord blood levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in premature infants.

Aim: To investigate the influence of antenatal magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) application on cord blood brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels - the first-line neuroprotection for preventing cerebral palsy in prematurely born infants.

Subjects And Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted by observing 72 pregnant women who were divided into three groups: group I (preterm pregnancy with MgSO4), group II (preterm pregnancy without MgSO4), and group III (full-term pregnancy as control group). Groups I and II were selected by block permutation randomization on subjects.
