This is a descriptive-exploratory study carried out from January to July 2002 with the purpose to know the prevalence of Specific Hypertension Disease in pregnancy (SHD) and its disorders. A total of 604 records of hospitalized women were retrospectively analyzed and 22 were diagnosed with SHD, that is, 3.64% of women presented this diagnosis. Of those, 45.45% were adolescents and 40.90% first pregnancy. In 86.36% the pathology occurred after the 20th week of gestation. Eclampsia, hypertension crisis, intrauterine fetal death, neonatal death, chronic fetal suffering and prematurity are one of the observed disorders during pregnancy. It was concluded that perinatal health assistance given to pregnant women in this region must be reviewed specially for the adolescents aiming at better perinatal health indexes.

Background: Uterine endometrial natural killer (uNK) cells represent major leukocytes in the mid-secretory phase of the cell cycle, and their number is further increased during early pregnancy. The activating and inhibitory receptors expressed on their surface mediate various functions of uNK cells, such as cytotoxicity, cytokine production, spiral artery remodeling, and self-recognition.
Methods: This study reviewed the most recent information (PubMed database, 175 articles included) regarding the activating and inhibitory receptors on uNK cells in human females with healthy pregnancies and the evidence indicating their significance in various reproductive failures.
