Counselling a patient with chronic illness before pregnancy.

J Popul Ther Clin Pharmacol

Published: June 2015

As the reproductive age of women increases, women of reproductive age are exposed to more diseases and medications that are potentially related to adverse pregnancy outcomes. The approach to primary prevention of such outcomes is discussed. By minimizing the risks related to the diseases and the medications before conception, the best control of the medical condition and optimized pharmacotherapy is achieved when conception eventually occurs.

Twelve-hour ultradian rhythmic reprogramming of gene expression in the human ovary during aging.

J Assist Reprod Genet

January 2025

Center of Reproductive Medicine, The Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou, 510655, China.

Background: The 12-h ultradian rhythm plays a crucial role in metabolic homeostasis, but its role in ovarian aging has not been explored. This study investigates age-related changes in 12-h rhythmic gene expression across various human tissues, with a particular focus on the ovary.

Methods: We analyzed transcriptomic data from the GTEx project to examine 12-h ultradian rhythmic gene expression across multiple peripheral human tissues, exploring sex-specific patterns and age-related reprogramming of both 12-h and 24-h rhythmic gene expression.

Background: Reproductive life planning is key, now that people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) may live into their 60s. This study explores contraceptive use, pregnancy trends, and whether concomitant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapy reduces contraceptive effectiveness.

Methods: Females with CF aged 18-45 years from 10 U.

Preconception GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Use Associated with Decreased Risk for Adverse Obstetric Outcomes.

Am J Obstet Gynecol

January 2025

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center, Cleveland OH; Department of Reproductive Biology, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH. Electronic address:

Background: The use of glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) has greatly increased in patients of reproductive age within the past four years. However, there is minimal research into the long-term impact of these medications on future pregnancies.

Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the association between adverse obstetric outcomes and antecedent GLP-1RA use using a nationally representative database.

Iodine intakes of pregnant females from Québec, Canada.

J Trace Elem Med Biol

January 2025

Reproduction, Mother and Child Health Unit, Research Center of the CHU de Québec, Université Laval, Québec City, Québec, Canada; Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproduction, CHU de Québec-Université Laval, Québec City, Québec, Canada. Electronic address:

Background: Adequate maternal iodine intake is important for fetal brain development. Based on iodine intakes of non-pregnant females of reproductive age from the Canadian Health Measures Survey (2016 -2017) it can be extrapolated that most pregnant females in Canada will not meet iodine requirements without supplementation.

Objectives: To assess iodine intakes of 500 pregnant, nulliparous females from Québec, Canada and report on use of multivitamin/mineral (MVM) supplements and coverage of iodized salt.

Background And Objectives: Although multiple sclerosis (MS) can be conceptualized as a network disorder, brain network analyses typically require advanced MRI sequences not commonly acquired in clinical practice. Using conventional MRI, we assessed cross-sectional and longitudinal structural disconnection and morphometric similarity networks in people with MS (pwMS), along with their relationship with clinical disability.

Methods: In this longitudinal monocentric study, 3T structural MRI of pwMS and healthy controls (HC) was retrospectively analyzed.
