Background And Aims: Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is a rare immune-mediated disorder; about 20%-30% of patients do not adequately respond to first-line treatments (immunoglobulins, therapeutic plasmapheresis, and corticosteroids) posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
Case Report: We report the case of a 58-year-old man diagnosed with CIDP. During follow-up, he progressively became refractory to all first-line treatments.
Labor analgesia is increasingly widespread throughout the world with a rate ranging from 10 to 60%. The benefits regarding clinical and non-clinical maternal-fetal outcomes are currently discussed in international scientific literature. Even stage of labor needs a different and appropriate approach to control the pain; however, different techniques are reported in literature.

Background: Dissemination of medical practice and scientific information through social media (SoMe) by clinicians and researchers is increasing. Broad exposure of information can promote connectivity within the scientific community, overcome barriers to access to sources, increase debate, and reveal layperson perspectives and preferences. On the other hand, practices lacking scientific evidence may also be promoted, laypeople may misunderstand the professional message, and clinician may suffer erosion of professional status.

Article Synopsis
- The Italian Association of Preeclampsia (AIPE) and the Italian Society of Perinatal Medicine (SIMP) collaborated to explore maternal hemodynamics and its implications for pregnancy outcomes.
- Experts reviewed existing literature and proposed recommendations on managing maternal cardiovascular profiles, leading to a classification system for pregnancy-related hypertension and complications based on hemodynamic states.
- The findings suggest that understanding these hemodynamic profiles can enhance clinical decision-making, despite the need for more extensive studies to solidify the evidence.
