This multicenter prospective study investigated seasonal variation in home blood pressure (HBP) during pregnancy and its association with the frequency of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and developed trimester-specific upper limits of HBP according to season. Low-risk women with singleton pregnancies were recruited at six university hospitals and three maternity clinics. HBP was measured by a sphygmomanometer twice daily and recorded online using a mobile application.

- About 8-10% of newborns with asymptomatic congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection develop sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), prompting a study to investigate the links between CMV load, SNHL, and central nervous system (CNS) damage.
- The study analyzed 23,368 newborns in Japan, screening for cCMV infection via urine tests and assessing hearing through automated auditory brainstem response (AABR) testing.
- Findings indicated a low incidence of cCMV (0.257%), with a notable 22.7% of infants with SNHL also infected with cCMV; higher urinary CMV loads were linked to both SNHL and CNS damage as
