Diabetes and twin pregnancies are known risk factors for poor perinatal and neonatal outcomes. However, the effects of these two entities occurring together are still unclear. PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar databases were searched in a systematic manner to identify observational studies among twin pregnancies, which documented the association of gestational diabetes with maternal and neonatal outcomes. All the analysis was done using STATA software. The meta-analysis included 21 studies, of which majority were retrospective data based. Mothers with gestational diabetes had higher risks of hypertensive disorder in pregnancy, caesarean section, large for gestational age baby, NICU admission and neonatal hypoglycaemia compared to mothers without gestational diabetes. Diabetic mothers were at reduced risk of small for gestational age baby and low APGAR score. No statistically significant differences in the risk of low birth weight, mean birth weight, prematurity and neonatal death were noted. This meta-analysis observed increased risks of detrimental maternal, neonatal and perinatal outcomes in twin pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes, underscoring the need for the early detection and management of gestational diabetes.

Objective: To study the implementation value of abdominal B-ultrasound combined with cervical cerclage in the prevention and treatment of recurrent late abortion.
Methods: From October 2020 to December 2023, 196 pregnant patients who had a history of late abortions at our institution were chosen. They were divided into groups based on the treatments used.
Maternal Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) Moderates the Association Between Birth Weight and EEG Power in Healthy Term-Age Newborns.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects around 10% of pregnancies in the United States and has been linked to neurodevelopmental sequelae in children. However, there is a paucity of studies investigating early-life neural markers in GDM-exposed infants. This study examined the association of GDM with relative EEG power among healthy term-age neonates collected during natural sleep.

Background: Previously it was recognised onset of Lactogenesis II was delayed in women with Type I diabetes compared to women without diabetes, but the effect of gestational diabetes was unclear. Some clinicians suggest pregnant women with diabetes express breastmilk in late pregnancy to hasten onset of Lactogenesis II.
Aims: To confirm if Lactogenesis II occurs later in women with diabetes in pregnancy, and test if advice to express antenatally hastens Lactogenesis II.

The background of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is complex, and its influence on adverse pregnancy outcomes is inconsistently reported. We performed a multi-institutional, retrospective analysis using de-identified electronic health records from the TriNetX Research Network to compare various pregnancy outcomes in women with and those without H.
