Purpose: Evaluation of obstetric and neonatal outcomes in a Brazilian retrospective cohort of pregnancies after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), regarding the 2009 Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommendations about gestational weight gain (GWG) and RYGB-conception interval. Additionally, search for intrapopulation risk factors for small gestational age (SGA) offspring and mental health assessments.
Material And Methods: Retrospective analysis of 132 singleton pregnancies after RYGB. Obstetric and neonatal outcomes were analyzed with stratification in above, below, or meeting the target regarding GWG guidance, and 0-12, 12-47, and ≥48 months for RYGB-conception interval. SGA risk factors were identified through Poisson regression analysis.
Results: GWG below the recommendations was associated with prematurity (p 0.003). Late conceptions (≥48 months) were associated with iron deficiency (p 0.025). Parenteral iron prescription was a protective factor for SGA, with a relative risk of 0.41 (95% CI, 0.20-0.85; p 0.017), and GWG below target was a SGA risk factor, with a relative risk of 4.68 (95% CI, 1.48-14.8; p 0.008). In all, 15.2% of patients had psychopharmacological treatment during pregnancy, and 7.6% received a diagnosis of postpartum depression. Any alcohol and tobacco consumption were reported in 3.8 and 6.8% of patients, respectively.
Conclusion: The recommendations regarding GWG apply to the RYGB population, and surgery-conception intervals should be individualized. The parenteral iron prescription was a protective factor for SGA, and GWG below the recommendations of the IOM was a risk factor for SGA. Psychological and psychiatric care should be offered to every possible pregnancy after RYGB.

This study aims to delineate the levels of Cd exposure in maternal blood, placenta, and cord blood, and to explore the association between Cd levels and the risk of preeclampsia (PE), as well as its potential impact on fetal growth among affected individuals. A case-control study was performed at the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University, involving 373 pregnant women diagnosed with PE and 485 controls. Cd was measured in maternal blood, placenta, and cord blood using ICP-MS.

Background And Aim: The prevention of abnormal fetal growth can improve the health status of children during infancy and in the future. However, the effect of folic acid supplementation on fetal weight for gestational age is unclear.
Objective: To investigate the effect of folic acid supplementation during pregnancy on abnormal fetal growth.
Baseline Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients With Severe Mental Illness (SMI) and Second Generation Antipsychotic Use From the Fixed Dose Intervention Trial of New England Enhancing Survival in SMI (FITNESS).

Individuals with severe mental illness (SMI) have a shorter life expectancy compared to the general population, largely due to cardiovascular disease (CVD). In this report from the Fixed Dose Intervention Trial of New England Enhancing Survival in SMI Patients (FITNESS), we examined baseline CVD risk factors and their treatment in patients with SMI and second generation antipsychotic (SGA) use. FITNESS enrolled 204 participants with SMI and SGA use, but without documented history of CVD or diabetes mellitus, from several clinics in the Boston, Massachusetts, area between April 29, 2015, and September 26, 2019.

Background: Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) which is judged based on birth weight and gestational age, is associated with increased neonatal mobility and mortality and also has a further impact on physical and mental health during later in life. Using the birth weight percentile for singletons to assess twins might not accurately reflect the growth status of the twins; this could potentially lead to an incorrect evaluation of growth-restricted children. For a more precise assessment of twin newborns, it is beneficial to utilize twin-specific birth weight percentile curves and ponderal index (PI) curves that consider factors such as birth order and sex.

Objectives: This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of homelessness shortly before or during pregnancy and describe differences in maternal characteristics and adverse birth outcomes between people reporting homelessness and not reporting homelessness.
Methods: We used 2016-2020 Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) data from 31 sites to estimate the prevalence of self-reported homelessness during the 12 months before giving birth. We used logistic regression models to evaluate the association between homelessness and adverse birth outcomes, specifically small for gestational age (SGA), low birth weight (LBW), and preterm birth (PTB).
