Background: Our study was a continuation of the research on the immunological pathology and changes associated with pregnancy complicated by preeclampsia. The aim of this study was to compare the levels of soluble CD30 in maternal serum in the group of women with preeclamptic pregnancy and in the control group of normotensive healthy pregnant women.
Material And Methods: The study was carried out in 50 patients with pregnancies complicated bysevere preeclampsia (Pre group). The control group consisted of 34 healthy normotensive pregnant patients with singleton uncomplicated pregnancies (group K). Maternal serum soluble CD30 concentrations were estimated using a sandwich ELISA assay. There were no statistically significant differences in gravidity, parity, maternal age, body height and BMI in patient profiles between groups. Maternal weight was lower in the control group of patients than in the group of preeclamptic patients. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial blood pressure were higher in the study group ofpreeclamptic pregnant women than in the control group.
Results: The levels of maternal serum soluble CD30 in preeclamptic women did not differ in comparison with healthy controls. The mean values were 21.257+/-10.304 ng/mL in the Pre group compared with 21.806+/-11.076 ng/mL in the control group.
Conclusions: Since preeclampsia is not associated with a fall of the maternal soluble CD30 level it can not constitute a measure of improving diagnostic and therapeutic management.

Microelectrodes offer exceptional sensitivity, rapid response, and versatility, making them ideal for real-time detection and monitoring applications. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors have shown great value in many fields due to their high sensitivity, fast response, and ease of operation. Nevertheless, conventional PEC sensing relies on cumbersome external light sources and bulky electrodes, hindering its miniaturization and implantation, thereby limiting its application in real-time disease monitoring.

Introduction: Chemokines and their receptors are essential for leukocyte migration to several tissues, including human milk. Here, we evaluated the homing of T and B lymphocyte subsets to breast milk in response to ongoing respiratory infections in the nursing infant.
Methods: Blood and mature milk were collected from healthy mothers of nurslings with respiratory infections (Group I) and from healthy mothers of healthy nurslings (Group C).

Unlabelled: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a chronic gastrointestinal disorder, often emerges during childhood and poses significant challenges due to its adverse effects on growth, development, and psychosocial well-being. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of diverse diseases. However, the specific biological role and mechanisms of circRNA OMA1 in children with IBD remain largely unexplored.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between endometriosis (EMs) severity and placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) risk in the subsequent pregnancy.
Method: Clinical records of 2,142 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery for EMs at Fujian Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2014 to January 2018, who had achieved pregnancy and were delivered, were analyzed. Baseline data, EMs stage, The Revised American Fertility Society (R-AFS) score, levels of serum indexes, and pregnancy and neonatal outcomes were recorded.

Background: Osteopenia of prematurity (OP) is characterized by reduced bone mineral content, and vitamin D deficiency may worsen OP by affecting bone metabolism.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the correlation between maternal vitamin D levels and biochemical markers related to OP.
Materials And Methods: This analytical cross-sectional study, conducted at Shahid Sadoughi hospital, Yazd, Iran, from June 2022 to September 2023, included 49 pregnant women and their preterm infants.
