Article Synopsis
- Prenatal exposure to serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs) may lead to neurobehavioral issues in newborns, but it’s unclear if these effects are temporary or part of a longer-term developmental change.
- This study analyzed how fetal health indicators during the third trimester related to newborn behavior, focusing on the impact of maternal depression and SRI treatment by looking at different maternal groups.
- The findings revealed specific relationships between fetal heart function and newborn behavior, showing that factors like lower heart rate variability were linked to poorer alertness in babies born to mothers who were untreated or poorly treated for depression.
Aims/hypothesis: The aim of this study was to compare glycaemic control and maternal-fetal outcomes in women with type 1 diabetes managed on insulin pumps compared with multiple daily injections of insulin (MDI).
Methods: In a retrospective study, glycaemic control and outcomes of 387 consecutive pregnancies in women with type 1 diabetes who attended specialised clinics at three centres 2006-2010 were assessed.
Results: Women using insulin pumps (129/387) were older and had a longer duration of diabetes, more retinopathy, smoked less in pregnancy, and had more preconception care (p < 0.
