Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the outcomes of pregnancies in women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) who were treated with hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) during early pregnancy, identifying that previous miscarriage count was the primary factor affecting pregnancy success.
- HCQ is explored as a potential treatment due to its effects on the maternal immune system, which may be linked to unexplained RPL.
- The study utilized the FALCO registry, which includes women with a history of RPL, to analyze pregnancies while excluding those with certain concurrent treatments, focusing on pregnancy continuation beyond 12 weeks and live births.
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in pregnancy could be a disastrous event with increased maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. DKA can occur with a normal blood glucose level, known as euglycemic DKA. It particularly affects pregnant women with type I diabetes.

MPVFD (Massive perivillous fibrin deposition) is placental lesion characterized by extensive massive deposits of fibrin in the intervillous space, extending over at least 25 % of the placental volume. Currently, this pathology can only be detected through histopathological examination of the placenta after a pregnancy has ended. The underlying mechanisms are poorly studied, there is no biomarker available for the diagnosis of MPVFD and treatment protocols are experimental and still lacking.

This is an observational cohort study at a university hospital, including all endometriosis patients with hydrosalpinges undergoing ART, between January 2013 and December 2018. The patients underwent either laparoscopic salpingectomy or hysteroscopic proximal tubal occlusion with Essure® when laparoscopy was not an option (extensive pelvic adhesions at exploratory laparoscopy or a history of multiple abdominal surgeries with frozen pelvis).

By documenting the local immune activation during the period of uterine receptivity, we aim to detect and correct potential imbalances before and at the very beginning of placentation. The main objective of the study was to analyze in women with a history of repeated pregnancy loss (RPL) the association of personalized strategies based on immune dysregulations with live birth rates.

- The study aimed to create a new interdisciplinary teamwork scale called the Obstetric Team Performance Assessment (OTPA) for managing post-partum hemorrhage through consensus among obstetric caregivers.
- The researchers utilized a Delphi method for expert consensus, conducting multiple rounds to refine the OTPA scale based on feedback, ultimately achieving high agreement on the items.
- The final OTPA scale will serve as a reliable tool for teaching and evaluating team performance in high-fidelity simulation scenarios related to post-partum hemorrhage management.
