Article Synopsis
  • - This study evaluates the effectiveness of inflammation indexes (like SII and NLR) for diagnosing intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) by reviewing medical records of 242 patients, including 121 with ICP and 121 healthy controls.
  • - Key findings showed significant differences in immune cell counts and liver enzyme levels between the ICP group and controls, with SII and NLR being notably higher in ICP patients.
  • - The study concludes that these systemic inflammation indices can be cost-effective and rapid diagnostic tools for ICP, suggesting they could improve patient outcomes when integrated into standard clinical practice.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines reproductive outcomes over two years for women with tubal ectopic pregnancies (EP) treated by surgery, methotrexate (MTX), or expectant management.
  • Over 900 patients were analyzed, revealing that those who underwent surgery had a significantly higher rate of no pregnancies compared to those receiving MTX or expectant management.
  • The findings suggest that expectant management and MTX therapy offer better chances for future pregnancies than surgical treatment, highlighting the importance of timely diagnosis and treatment choice.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of the presence of subchorionic hematoma (SH) in early pregnancies with threatened miscarriage (TM) on levels of first-trimester maternal serum markers, pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A), and free β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) levels.

Methods: The data of TM cases with SH in the first trimester between 2015 and 2021 were evaluated retrospectively. The data of age and gestational age-matched TM cases without SH were also assessed to constitute a control group.

Background: Subfatin, a newly discovered adipokine, plays a pivotal role in the regulation of glucose metabolism. The relationship between gestational diabetes mellitus and maternal dyslipidemia is well-documented.

Aims: This study aims to assess serum subfatin levels and the triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio in women with one abnormal glucose tolerance test value and those with gestational diabetes mellitus.

Objectives: Placental abruption (PA) is associated with adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes and has an etiological mechanism that is not yet fully understood. The prediction of PA, which has been the subject of numerous studies, remains a challenge. In particular, there is evidence that PA can be considered a chronic process.
