Assisted reproductive technology has continued to develop in recent years, the technology has become more and more mature, and it has improved the total gestational age of the population. Assisted reproductive technology has improved twin pregnancy rates with the use of ovulation-inducing drugs. The risk factor of twins is much higher than singletons, and adverse pregnancy outcomes such as stillbirth and premature birth are more likely to occur than singletons, especially the special complications of monochorionic twins (MC), and the neonatal mortality and morbidity are also increased. Prenatal diagnosis and prognosis of twin pregnancy, as well as therapeutic interventions, are of current concern. Ultrasound can realize the understanding of intrauterine growth and development of twin pregnancy fetuses during pregnancy, can more accurately determine gestational age, organ function, and maturity, and timely detect fetal growth and development abnormalities in twin pregnancy, while the prognosis and treatment still need further improvement. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical value and treatment progress of prenatal ultrasound monitoring in twin pregnancy.

Background: The incidence of multiple pregnancies has increased worldwide recently and women with a twin pregnancy are at higher risk of adverse outcomes compared with women with a singleton pregnancy. It is important to understand the risk factors for adverse fetal outcomes in twin pregnancy in order to guide clinical management.
Aim: To identify the independent risk factors, including maternal personal and family medical histories and first trimester ultrasound screening findings, for adverse fetal outcomes of twin pregnancy before 28 weeks of gestation.

Unlabelled: Twin pregnancies are associated with higher risks of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes compared to singleton pregnancies. This retrospective nationwide cohort study analyzed trends in twin pregnancy outcomes in Finland from 2008 to 2023 using data from the Finnish Medical Birth Register. Outcomes assessed included perinatal mortality, stillbirths, neonatal mortality, neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admissions, and hospitalization rates at one week of age.

Background: Noninvasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) has been proven feasible for non-syndromic hearing loss (NSHL) in singleton pregnancies. However, previous research is limited to the second trimester and the application in twin pregnancies is blank. Here we provide a novel algorithmic approach to assess singleton and twin pregnancies in the first trimester.

Rationale: Postpartum haemorrhage, defined as a blood loss of 500 mL or more within 24 hours of birth, is the leading global cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus, and affect an increasing number of women. Caesarean myomectomy is the surgical removal of fibroids during a caesarean section.
