Article Abstract
Objective: To study the trend and characteristics of maternal mortality in China from 1996 to 2000.
Methods: Population-based epidemiological survey in 116 monitoring units in China were used.
Results: Maternal mortality in China dropped by 17.1% from 63.9 per 100,000 live births in 1996 to 53.0 in 2000, in rural area dropped by 22.2% from 86.4 per 100,000 live births to 67.2, and in urban area only 1.0% from 29.2 per 100 000 live births to 28.9, the leading causes of maternal mortality in China are hemorrhage, preeolampsia/eclampsia and amniotic fluid embolism the maternal mortality due to hemorrhage in national level and rural level has declined by 33.8%, 34.9% respectively.
Conclusion: The maternal mortality appears a declined trend on both the national and rural levels in China from 1996 to 2000, the maternal mortality due to hemorrhage dose also, bur the maternal mortality in urban area keeps unstable.

Objectives: This report describes changes in total, early, and late fetal mortality between 2022 and 2023 (provisional), as well as fetal mortality by maternal race and Hispanic origin and state of residence. Comparisons are made with findings from 2021 to 2022.
Methods: Data are based on reports of fetal death filed in the 50 states and the District of Columbia and collected via the National Vital Statistics System.
Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the primary cause of nonobstetric morbidity and mortality in pregnant women worldwide. Pakistan's high maternal and neonatal mortality rates underscore the need for effective screening protocols to detect cardiovascular diseases during pregnancy.
Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence and factors associated with structural heart disease among pregnant women without active cardiorespiratory symptoms (no symptoms or symptoms attributed to pregnancy) attending routine antenatal appointments.

Background: Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) remains as 1 of the major contributors to indirect pregnancy-related mortality and morbidity worldwide and disproportionately affects marginalized populations.
Objectives: In this scoping review, the authors sought to explore the socioeconomic, cultural, and health care access-related causes of global disparities in outcomes of pregnancy among individuals with RHD.
Methods: We performed a literature search of all studies published between January 1, 1990, and January 1, 2022, that investigated causes for disparate outcomes in pregnant individuals with RHD.

Across mammals, fertility and offspring survival are often lowest at the beginning and end of females' reproductive careers. However, extrinsic drivers of reproductive success-including infanticide by males-could stochastically obscure these expected age-related trends. Here, we modelled reproductive ageing trajectories in two cercopithecine primates that experience high rates of male infanticide: the chacma baboon () and the gelada ().

Objective: Errors in the preparation and administration of intravenous medications are significant contributors to morbidity and mortality rates in medical practice. Early reporting and the implementation of preventive measures can mitigate these errors. This study aims to identify patterns and frequencies of errors in IV medication preparation and administration, along with associated factors, at Omdurman Military Hospital in Khartoum, Sudan.
