Maternal, Perinatal and Neonatal Outcomes of Triplet Pregnancies According to Chorionicity: Our 15-Year Experience in a Tertiary-Level Center.

: The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of chorionicity on maternal, fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality in triplet pregnancies in our environment. : A retrospective observational study was carried out on triplet pregnancies that were delivered in a tertiary center between 2006 and 2020. A total of 76 pregnant women, 228 fetuses and 226 live newborns were analyzed.

3D Ultrasound in Pelvic Floor: Is It Useful as a Prognostic Tool in Type of Labor Development and Subsequent Pelvic Floor Diseases?

The objective of our study is to determine the thickness of the pubovisceral fasciculus of the levator ani muscle and the area of the genital hiatus by means of three-dimensional perineal ultrasound, in pregnant women in the 2nd trimester, and to analyze the related maternal, perinatal and postpartum clinical variables. Furthermore, to compare the results of our study with two similar series previously published. An observational, prospective study of pelvic floor ultrasound was carried out, performed at week 20, whose delivery was attended in the obstetrics service of the Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Marañón de Madrid (HGUGM), during the period of August from 2021 to June 2022.

Maternal, Perinatal and Neonatal Outcomes of Triplet Pregnancies According to Chorionicity: A Systematic Review of the Literature and Meta-Analysis.

Triplet pregnancies are rare events that affect approximately 93 in 100,000 deliveries in the world, especially due to the increased use of assisted reproductive techniques and older maternal age. Triplet pregnancies are associated with a higher risk of fetal and maternal morbidity and mortality compared to twins and singletons. Chorionicity has been proposed as a major determinant of perinatal and maternal outcomes in triplet pregnancies, although further evidence is needed to clarify the extent and real influence of this factor.

Short-chain fatty acids during pregnancy in multiple sclerosis: A prospective cohort study.

Background And Purpose: Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) can have pro- or anti-inflammatory properties, but their relationship with multiple sclerosis (MS) relapses during pregnancy remains unknown. This study aimed to explore SCFA profiles in MS patients during pregnancy and to assess their association with the appearance of relapses during pregnancy and postpartum.

Methods: We prospectively included 53 pregnant MS patients and 21 healthy control women.

Maternal and Perinatal Outcomes in Patients with Suspected COVID-19 and Their Relationship with a Negative RT-PCR Result.

This study was designed to examine maternal-perinatal outcomes in pregnant women with suspected coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) according to the result of a real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test and to investigate possible variables that could be useful for predicting a negative RT-PCR result. Participants of this retrospective cohort study were obstetrics patients with suspected COVID-19 who underwent an RT-PCR test in a tertiary hospital in Madrid, Spain. Maternal-perinatal features were analysed according to the results of this test.
