The Diabetes in Pregnancy Program Project Grant (PPG) was a 15-year program focused on enhancing the care for women with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) during pregnancy and improving the well-being of their offspring. Launched in July 1978 at the University of Cincinnati, the PPG pursued a multifaceted research agenda encompassing basic science, animal and placental studies, and maternal and neonatal clinical trials to understand the physiological and pathophysiological aspects of IDDM during pregnancy. A total of 402 singleton pregnancies in 259 women with IDDM were enrolled prior to 10 weeks gestation over the 15-year period.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Edith Wolfson Medical Center, Holon, and the School of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of mifepristone-misoprostol versus misoprostol alone in treating early pregnancy loss.
- A total of 999 patients were analyzed, showing a lower treatment failure rate of 17.8% in the mifepristone-misoprostol group compared to 25.1% in the misoprostol-only group.
- The findings indicated that using mifepristone in combination reduced the odds of treatment failure by 34%, while factors such as prior vaginal delivery and gestational age also influenced treatment outcomes.
Ultrasound diagnosis of first trimester umbilical cord entanglement in monochorionic monoamniotic twins - case report and review of the literature.

Hadassah University Hospital, Mt Scopus, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Jerusalem, Israel.
Article Synopsis
- * A 32-year-old woman undergoing assisted reproductive technology showed two embryos with regular heartbeats and tightly entangled umbilical cords at 8.5 weeks gestation, identified through various ultrasound techniques.
- * The findings suggest that UCE can be diagnosed as early as eight weeks of gestation, but may indicate a poor prognosis for the pregnancy.
Hypoglycemia in Pregnant Women with Type 1 Diabetes: Is It Inevitable?

Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Inova Health System, Fairfax, Virginia.
The human body has abundant mechanisms to counteract hypoglycemia and prevent neuroglycopenia primarily involving the secretion of glucagon and adrenalin. Within several years from the onset of diabetes, people with type 1 diabetes lose their ability to mount a counterregulatory response to hypoglycemia and develop hypoglycemia unawareness, thus being at risk for deteriorating to a state of severe hypoglycemia and neuroglycopenia. Pregnant individuals with type 1 diabetes are particularly prone to experience severe hypoglycemia during the first half of pregnancy.

Chan School of Public Health, Boston, MA, USA; ASPIRE Center for Sexual and Reproductive Health, Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts, Boston, MA, USA.
Objectives: The aim of the study was to understand the rates of first-trimester medication and procedural abortion provision, sufficiency in abortion training, and factors associated with abortion provision among obstetrician-gynecologists (OB/GYNs) in Massachusetts.
Study Design: Electronically fielded surveys of a census of OB/GYNs in Massachusetts in 2021 queried physicians on abortion provision, training, practice type, and demographics. Using weighting to account for nonresponse, we generated estimates of the proportion of OB/GYNS providing abortion and used multivariate regression analysis to explore factors associated with abortion provision including practice type, physician sex, and sufficient abortion training.
