Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci and Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Bacterial Colonization of the Cervix after Emergency Cerclage: Is It Safe?

Antimicrobial resistance is currently becoming a global threat to human health. We performed a retrospective study on patients who underwent emergency cerclage between January 2016 and December 2018 at the Dongsan Medical Center.

Pregnancy Outcome, Antibodies, and Placental Pathology in SARS-CoV-2 Infection during Early Pregnancy.

There are reports that pregnant women infected with SARS-CoV-2 not only have increased morbidity but also increased complications and evidence of maternal and fetal vascular malperfusion on placental pathology. This was a retrospective study of pregnant women diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection after March 2020. The results of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction testing and IgM and IgG antibody testing of the amniotic fluid, cord blood, placenta, and maternal blood were confirmed at delivery.

Is fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity correlated with hemoglobin levels in cases of nonimmune fetal anemia?

Objectives: To establish whether a correlation exists between the fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA PSV) and fetal hemoglobin levels before intrauterine transfusion (IUT) in cases of severe fetal anemia.

Methods: This was a single-center, retrospective study of data from 49 fetuses treated with IUT for fetal anemia between 2003 and 2018. Severe fetal anemia was suspected when MCA PSV was or exceeded 1.

Surgical impact on serum anti-Müllerian hormone in women with benign ovarian cyst: A prospective study.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the surgical impact of benign ovarian mass on ovarian reserve as measured by serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), estradiol (E2) and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, antral follicle count (AFC) and ovarian volumes. In addition, the differences in ovarian reserve impairment between endometrioma cystectomy and non-endometrioma cystectomy were investigated.

Methods: In this prospective study, 22 patients of reproductive age (range, 18.
