Aims: This systematic review aims to assess the effects of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) on maternal and neonatal outcomes in perinatal women with diabetes.
Methods: A three-step comprehensive search was conducted based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guideline. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were retrieved from international databases of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, PsycINFO and Scopus from their respective inception dates until 5th January 2021. Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software Version 3 was used. The overall effect was determined using Hedges' g. Cochrane collaboration's tool version 1 and grading of recommendations, assessment, development and evaluation criteria were used for quality assessment.
Results: A total of 1215 records were identified and 10 RCTs involving a total of 1358 perinatal women were selected. The meta-analysis revealed that CGM significantly improved HbA1c levels (g = -0.43, 95% CI: -0.63, -0.22), lowered cesarean section rate (g = -0.17, 95% CI: -0.33, -0.02) and neonatal birth weight (g = -0.16, 95% CI: -0.27, -0.04) when compared to the comparator. The majority (86.67%) has a low risk of biases and certainty of evidence ranged from very low to moderate.
Conclusion: CGM improves maternal and neonatal outcomes. Future studies should use well-designed large-scale trials.

Background: Nigeria's reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health indicators have remained unsatisfactory in the face of poor-quality healthcare services. Nigeria initiated the reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent, elderly + nutrition (RMNCAEH+N) quality of care (QoC) agenda to address the challenge. The health management information system (HMIS) is integral to the agenda but there is sparse evidence on its performance so far.

Hand-rearing of marine mammals is an essential technique for the husbandry of orphans in captivity or the wild, especially endangered cetacean species. The purpose of the present study was to establish a method for successful hand-rearing and evaluate the nutritional state of neonatal finless porpoises. Two neonate finless porpoises maternally neglected at 5 days of age (Day 5) (neonate A, animal A) and Day 4 (neonate B, animal B) were hand reared.

This study presents an efficient and interpretable framework for unsupervised detection of low, very low, and extreme birth weights. While traditional approaches to managing class imbalance require labeled data, our study explores the use of unsupervised learning to detect anomalies indicative of low birth weight scenarios.

Compound-specific stable carbon isotope analysis of amino acids (CSIA-AA) is widely used in ecological studies to analyze food-webs and is gaining use in archaeology for investigating past diets. However, its use in reconstructing breastfeeding and weaning practices is not fully understood. This study evaluates the efficacy of stable carbon isotope analysis of amino acids in early life diet reconstruction by analyzing keratin from fingernail samples of three mother-infant pairs during late gestation and early postpartum periods.

Sample pretreatment for mass spectrometry (MS)-based metabolomics and lipidomics is normally conducted independently with two sample aliquots and separate matrix cleanup procedures, making the two-step process sample-intensive and time-consuming. Herein, we introduce a high-throughput pretreatment workflow for integrated nontargeted metabolomics and lipidomics leveraging the enhanced matrix removal (EMR)-lipid microelution 96-well plates. The EMR-lipid technique was innovatively employed to effectively separate and isolate non-lipid small metabolites and lipids in sequence using significantly reduced sample amounts and organic solvents.
