This article aims to provide an updated look at the use of marijuana in the United States and its impact on pregnancy. First, the prevalence of marijuana use is examined, including use both in and outside of pregnancy. The literature surrounding attitudes and beliefs with regard to use in pregnancy is reviewed. The impact on pregnancy outcomes is reviewed along with the evidence of marijuana's impact on neural development of the fetus. Finally, clinical considerations for providers are discussed.

: Zika disease is caused by the Zika virus (ZIKV) and represents a major public health problem because of the complications in newborn babies from mothers who were infected during pregnancy. It is estimated that 80% of infected pregnant women are asymptomatic, which complicates the identification of infected individuals. In this study, we aimed to detect ZIKV in asymptomatic pregnant women and the effects in the newborns were analyzed.

Irregular and unpredictable fetal movement is the most common cause of artifacts in in utero functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), affecting analysis and limiting our understanding of early functional brain development. The accurate detection of corrupted functional connectivity (FC) resulting from motion artifacts or preprocessing, instead of neural activity, is a prerequisite for reliable and valid analysis of FC and early brain development. Approaches to address this problem in adult data are of limited utility in fetal fMRI.

Introduction: Chronic inflammation caused by infections has a significant negative impact on the reproductive system and impairs fertility. The corpus luteum (CL) plays a central role not only in regulating the ovary cycle, but also in implantation of the embryo and maintenance of early pregnancy through the secretion of progesterone. Understanding the intricate interplay between inflammatory processes and reproductive organ's function is crucial for the development of effective therapeutic strategies to alleviate reproductive disorders and improve fertility.
