Background: To explore the effect of pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) on neonatal outcomes among singletons born after frozen embryo transfer (FET).
Methods: This large retrospective cohort study included 18,683 singleton infants born after FET during the period from Jan 1, 2007 to Dec 31, 2019. The main outcomes were large for gestational age (LGA) and preterm birth. Logistic regression models with generalized estimating equations for clustering by patients to estimate odds ratios of LGA and preterm birth.
Results: Overweight was positively associated with LGA overall (adjusted OR 1.78 [95%CI 1.60-1.98]), and this association was consistent across age categories. The underweight was inversely associated with LGA among mothers younger than 35 years (adjusted OR 0.49 [95%CI 0.39-0.62] among mothers younger than 30 years; adjusted OR 0.47 [95%CI 0.37-0.60] among mothers aged 30-34 years), but this association was no significant among mothers 35 years or older. Overweight was positively and significantly associated with preterm birth overall (adjusted OR 1.52 [95%CI 1.30-1.77]) and consistently across age categories. The underweight mothers younger than 30 years had a decreased risk of preterm birth (adjusted OR 0.70 [95%CI 0.51-0.97]), but the underweight was no significantly associated with preterm birth among women aged 30 years of older.
Conclusions: The risks of LGA and preterm birth were increased in singletons born to overweight mothers, regardless of the maternal age. Underweight decreased the risk of LGA and preterm birth for younger mothers. These findings are important for providing preconceptional counseling to specifically targeted women at high risk of LGA and preterm birth.

Current intimate partner violence (IPV) during pregnancy was found to be associated with adverse health outcomes including pregnancy loss, preterm labor, pregnancy complications, hypertension, delivering low birth weight baby, physical injuries and stress. IPV in Ethiopia is considerably high. This study aimed at determining the prevalence of the IPV during the index pregnancy as measured at six weeks postpartum among women in their extended six weeks postpartum period and identify its correlates.

Structural brain organization in infancy is associated with later cognitive, behavioral, and educational outcomes. Due to practical limitations, such as technological advancements and data availability of fetal MRI, there is still much we do not know about the early emergence of topological organization. We combine the developing Human Connectome Project's large infant dataset with generative network modeling to simulate the emergence of network organization over early development.

Background And Aims: Early life factors have been suggested to be associated with later cardiometabolic risk in children, adolescents and adults. Our study aimed to investigate the associations between early life factors and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in children and adolescents.
Methods And Results: Our analysis sample comprised of 8852 children aged 2-9 years at baseline that participated in up to three examination waves of the pan-European IDEFICS/I.

Objective: To explore the clinical significance of trisomy 7 signaled by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT).
Methods: Pregnant women with high risk for trisomy 7 by NIPT from January 2017 to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects, and the results of prenatal diagnosis and follow-up were analyzed. Literature related to pregnant women with a high risk for trisomy 7 by NIPT from January 2016 to July 2024 was retrieved from China Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and PubMed database.

Objectives: During the COVID-19 pandemic, global health systems faced unprecedented challenges, as well as in maternal and neonatal health, thus this study aims to clarify the impacts of COVID-19 on maternal and neonatal disorders (MNDs), regional variations, and the role of economic support.
Methods: We have developed a counterfactual model integrating Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average and Long Short-Term Memory models to forecast the burden of MNDs from 2020 To et al., 2021, which was compared with the actual burden to quantify the specific impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on MNDs.
