Aim: The aim of this paper was to determine whether maternal BMI influences breast-feeding practice in quality and duration
Methods: A retrospective case-control study were included Fifty women with Body Max Index (BMI) ≥25 kg/m2 considered overweigh and obese and fifty controls with BMI<25 kg/m2 who delivered in our clinic between 2010 and 2011.
Results: The incidence of breast-feeding was significantly lower in overweight and obese women compared with normal weight. Breastfeeding length was negatively related to prepregnancy BMI but not to gestational weight gain, method of delivery or lactation integration. Obese women presented an elevated Body Max Index one year apart from childbirth and are correlated to maternal complications during breastfeeding.
Conclusion: Maternal overweight and obesity is negatively correlated to duration and quality of lactation.

Background: Allostatic load and oxidative stress (OS) markers differ in women with and without preeclampsia. However, there is no difference in allostatic load and OS markers between late-onset preeclampsia (L-OP) and early-onset preeclampsia (E-OP). This study aimed to compare the concentrations of allostatic load and OS markers in pregnant women with L-OP and E-OP.

Background: Mechanisms underlying the association of life-course adiposity with incident hypertension in adulthood have not been comprehensively investigated. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential biochemical and metabolomic mechanisms underlying the association between adiposity and incident hypertension.
Methods: A total of 180,527 participants from the UK Biobank aged 37 to 73 years were included.

Background: Exogenous foreign body aspiration is a common high-risk condition in children. In a few cases, foreign body aspiration can lead to airway granulomas that interfere with tracheoscopic foreign body removal and threaten the life of the child.
Methods: This study was a retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 184 pediatric patients who were admitted to Quanzhou Children's Hospital from 2018 to 2021 with exogenous tracheobronchial foreign bodies.

Aim: Our study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of Placental growth factor (PlGF), Vitamin D, and systemic inflammatory index for assessing preeclampsia risk and severity.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 457 pregnant individuals who delivered at our hospital between March 2023 and October 2024. Participants were divided into three groups: control (n = 217), mild preeclampsia (n = 101), and severe preeclampsia (n = 67).
