We describe the results of a study of asymptomatic Listeria monocytogenes serum prevalence in a population of pregnant women in the Reus area. The study includes newborn exam and correlation with laboratory data obtained by an indirect immunofluorescence method recently developed. The incidence of anti-Listeria antibody carriers was high (12%) but in no cases spontaneous abortions or fetal malformations were associated to high titers.

Japan Drug Information Institute in Pregnancy, National Center for Child Health and Development, Tokyo, Japan.
Aim: Uncontrolled chronic inflammatory diseases (CIDs) before, during, and after pregnancy, as well as some CID medications, can increase the risk of impaired fertility in addition to adverse maternal/pregnancy outcomes in women of childbearing age. We report pregnancy outcomes from prospectively reported pregnancies in Japanese women treated with certolizumab pegol (CZP).

Background: Penicillin allergy is reported in 5% to 15% of the world population, with 3% to 10% of pregnant women reporting the same. However, more than 90% of these patients can tolerate penicillin after appropriate evaluation. Penicillin is indicated for various issues that arise in pregnancy, and a history of allergy can have negative individual and public health consequences.

Background: In cases of maternal primary infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV-MPI) maternal treatment with oral valaciclovir 8 g/day has been shown to reduce the risk of fetal infection. The pharmacological profile of this high dosage during pregnancy is not yet known.
Objectives: To quantify maternal-fetal exposure to valaciclovir 8 g/day in a population pharmacokinetic (popPK) study.
Considering Comorbidities and Individual Differences in Testing a Gaming Behavioral Activation App for Perinatal Depression and Anxiety: Open Trial Pilot Intervention Study.

Center for Women's Mental Health, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, United States.
Background: There is increasing interest in the development of scalable digital mental health interventions for perinatal populations to increase accessibility. Mobile behavioral activation (BA) is efficacious for the treatment of perinatal depression; however, the effect of comorbid anxiety and depression (CAD) on symptom trajectories remains underexplored. This is important given that at least 10% of women in the perinatal period experience CAD.

School of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, United States.
Background: Sudden unexpected infant death (SUID) is a leading cause of death for US infants, and nonrecommended sleep practices are reported in most of these deaths. SUID rates have not declined over the past 20 years despite significant educational efforts. Integration of prenatal safe sleep and breastfeeding education into a pregnancy app may be one approach to engaging pregnant individuals in education about infant care practices prior to childbirth.
