The development of fetal organs can be impacted by systemic changes in maternal circulation, with the placenta playing a pivotal role in maintaining pregnancy homeostasis and nutrient exchange. In clinical obstetrics, oxytocin (OXT) is commonly used to induce labor. To explore the potential role of OXT in the placental homeostasis of OXT, we compared OXT levels in neonatal cord blood among neonates (23-42 weeks gestation) whose mothers either received prenatal OXT or experienced spontaneous labor.

Introduction: Transplacental infections are frequent, especially in developing countries, where limited screening is performed to find infectious agents in the pregnant population. We aim to determine the clinical and epidemiological characteristics and seroinfection of antibodies against , parvovirus B19, , and HIV in pregnant women who attended the Motupe Health Center in Lambayeque, Peru during July-August 2018.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in 179 pregnant women interviewed with a standardized questionnaire.

Background: The antibody that crosses transplacentally from mother to fetus is very important origin of protective passive immunity against infection neonatal with enterovirus. Important varieties of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) are responsible for infections in newborns. The purpose from this study is to investigate in the prevalence of Coxsackie B virus in a sample of Iraqi women with miscarriage and potential role of miscarriage risk.

Article Synopsis
- Tularemia, caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis, is a rare but serious condition during pregnancy that can lead to various complications for mothers and their babies.
- A systematic review analyzed 52 cases of pregnant patients with tularemia, revealing that oropharyngeal and ulceroglandular forms were the most common, with many cases reported in the second trimester.
- Results suggest that while complications and pregnancy losses occurred, those who received effective antimicrobial treatment experienced fewer adverse outcomes, emphasizing the need for timely recognition and treatment of tularemia during pregnancy.
