First trimester miscarriage, or early pregnancy loss, is a common occurrence in the United States. Miscarriage management includes expectant, medical, or surgical approaches. Decisions about management options should be approached through shared decision making between the patient and provider and with consideration of patient's preferences, hemodynamic stability, cost, gestational age, and effectiveness. Emergencies requiring immediate interventions are rare. Newer developments in management, including a more effective medical regimen with the addition of mifepristone and cost-effective and convenient in-office surgical interventions, have expanded treatment options.

Article Synopsis
- RSA is linked to metabolic imbalances at the maternal-fetal interface, especially concerning essential fatty acids and oxylipins, which may contribute to the risk of spontaneous abortion.
- Research involved analyzing samples from women experiencing spontaneous abortion and those with normal pregnancies, measuring fatty acid levels and enzyme expressions using advanced techniques like GC-MS and LC-MS.
- Findings showed that women with recurrent spontaneous abortion had higher omega-6 fatty acid levels in their plasma and chorionic villi but lower levels in the decidua, suggesting a possible dysregulation of fatty acid transport affecting pregnancy outcomes.

Article Synopsis
- In-utero exposure to Zika virus (ZIKV) can result in severe outcomes like miscarriage and congenital Zika syndrome, prompting a study on the infection rates among pregnant women from February to April 2022.
- Researchers tested 200 pregnant women for ZIKV antibodies and found that 16.5% had ZIKV IgM, 10% had IgG, and 23% had neutralizing antibodies, indicating various stages of infection and immunity.
- The study also revealed that recent ZIKV infections were more common in sexually active women aged 20-29, with higher infection risks in first trimester and grand-multiparous women, although no significant link was found between ZIKV and specific pregnancy trimest

Independent Consultant, Los Angeles, CA, United States.
Background: Specific antimigraine medications (dihydroergotamine (DHE), triptans) have been associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes in individual studies but lack of consensus remains.
Objectives: Quantify the risk of prematurity, low birth weight (LBW), major congenital malformations (MCM), and spontaneous abortions (SA) associated with gestational use of DHE or triptans in a privately insured cohort of pregnant women in the US.
Methods: We conducted a cohort study within the US Merative MarketScan Research Database (2011-2021), composed of a nationally representative sample of patients with employer-provided health insurance.
