The course of infection with the Delta variant of COVID-19 in pregnancy: analysis of clinical, laboratory, and neonatal outcomes.

Objective: This study aimed to examine the effects of infection with the Delta variant of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) on the clinical course, laboratory parameters, and neonatal outcome in pregnant women.

Material And Methods: A total of 96 pregnant women who tested positive for the Delta variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) causing COVID-19 were retrospectively examined. The pregnant women were divided into three groups: Asymptomatic; non-severe; and severe.

Evaluation of Antepartum Factors for Predicting the Risk of Emergency Cesarean Delivery in Pregnancies Complicated With Placenta Previa.

The optimal delivery timing for patients with placenta previa remains controversial in the literature. To reduce spontaneous vaginal bleeding rates, which occur increasingly with advancing gestational weeks, elective cesarean delivery is advocated between 36 and 37 weeks of gestation, but this clinical approach does not take into consideration numerous patient variables. Few papers identify the risk factors for emergency cesarean delivery in patients with placenta previa.

The Value of First-trimester Maternal Abdominal Visceral Adipose Tissue Thickness in Predicting the Subsequent Development of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus.

Objective: To examine the performance of first-trimester visceral (pre-peritoneal), subcutaneous, and total adipose tissue thickness (ATT) to predict the patients with subsequently developing gestational Diabetes mellitus (GDM).

Study Design: Observational study.

Place And Duration Of Study: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Diyarbakır Gazi Yaşargil Training and Research Hospital from January 2021 to July 2021.

COVID-19 in pregnant women: An evaluation of clinical symptoms and laboratory parameters based on the 3 trimesters.

Objectives: To investigate the association between the hospitalization rates, symptoms, and laboratory parameters of pregnant women diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and the gestational week, and determine their symptoms or laboratory parameters predictive of the need for possible admission in the intensive care unit (ICU).

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the symptoms, laboratory parameters, and treatment modalities of 175 pregnant women with COVID-19 who were admitted to a tertiary referral hospital between March 2020 and March 2021 and investigated their association with pregnancy trimesters.

Results: The COVID-19-related hospitalization rates in the first trimester was 24.

The evaluation of the antepartum and intrapartum risk factors in predicting the risk of birth asphyxia.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the related antepartum and intrapartum factors of birth asphyxia among neonates born in a tertiary referral hospital.

Methods: A total of 45 singleton pregnant women who delivered live births with a gestational age of ≥35 weeks and their neonates who suffered from birth asphyxia from June 2016 to June 2021 were included in this retrospective study. Data regarding maternal demographic features, maternal laboratory values, pregnancy complications, and obstetric and neonatal outcomes were collected.

First Trimester Mean Platelet Volume, Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio, and Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratio Values Are Useful Markers for Predicting Preeclampsia.

Preeclampsia complicates 2% to 8% of all pregnancies. Systemic inflammatory response (SIR) markers are widely used in the diagnosis of many inflammatory diseases and in the prediction of complicated pregnancies. This study examined the diagnostic value of SIR markers during the first trimester of pregnancy to predict preeclampsia development.

Comparison of brachial artery flow-mediated dilatation, uterine artery Doppler, and umbilical artery Doppler measurements in obese and normal pregnant women.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare vascular function at trimesters 1, 2, and 3 between obese and normal pregnant women through brachial artery flow-mediated dilatation (FMD), uterine artery Doppler, and umbilical artery Doppler measurements.

Methods: Pregnant women between the ages of 18 and 40 who presented to our clinic were included. Brachial artery FMD, uterine and umbilical artery Doppler, and clinical parameters of 40 obese pregnant women from each trimester between 11 and 14 weeks, 24 and 28 weeks, 37 and 40 weeks and control pregnant group in the same number and gestational week were examined.

Pregnancy outcomes of patients undergoing single-layer sutured laparoscopic myomectomy.

Aim: In this study, we aimed to investigate the pregnancy outcomes of 102 patients who underwent laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) with single-layer suturing.

Methods: This retrospective study included 102 women who underwent single-layer sutured LM in the obstetrics and gynaecology clinic of our hospital between September 2017 and April 2019.

Results: A total of 102 patients underwent LM and colpotomy.

Approach to Bartholin's abscesses and recurrences under office conditions.

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the various treatment methods and recurrence rates regarding Bartholin's gland abscesses under office conditions in our clinic.

Methods: In our study, the data of 155 patients who applied to the gynaecology and obstetrics clinic of our hospital between January 2017 and November 2020 and had Bartholin's abscess that was treated with surgical methods under office conditions were analyzed retrospectively.

Results: Of the 155 patients included in the study, 111 underwent incision drainage, 22 underwent marsupialization, and 22 underwent incision drainage+ silver nitrate.

Maternal near-miss patients and maternal mortality cases in a Turkish tertiary referral hospital.

Objectives: This study aimed to estimate the incidence of maternal near-miss (MNM) morbidity in a tertiary hospital setting in Turkey.

Material And Methods: In this retrospective study, we concluded 125 MNM patients who delivered between January 2017 and December 2017 and fulfilled the WHO management-based criteria and severe pre-eclamptic and HELLP patients which is the top three highest mortality rates due to pregnancy. Two maternal death cases were also included.
