Objective: Repeat adolescent pregnancy is a hot topic worldwide and imposes a challenge on the health system, especially when faced with limited resources. We aimed to assess maternal and neonatal outcomes in adolescent pregnant women with one prior cesarean section (CS).

Material And Methods: Singleton adolescent pregnant women with one prior CS scar were recruited and divided into two groups based on the obstetric decision for delivery and/or mother’s wish, either trial of labor (TL) or elective cesarean section (ECS). If TL failed, an emergency CS was performed.

Results: Out of the total 109 involved women, TL and ECS groups included 78 (71.6%) and 31 (28.4%) women, respectively. Emergency CS was done for 57 (52.3%) women from the TL group, leaving only 21 (19.3%) women with successful TL who had statistically significant (non-recurrent) indications of the prior CS [12 (57.1%)]. Malpresentation (n=24; 77.4%) was the major indication in the ECS group, while fetal distress (n=29; 50.9%) was the main cause of failed TL. Total maternal morbidities in the TL group were significantly higher for adjusted [1.5 (1.1-4.2)] and non-adjusted odds ratios (OR) [2.4 (1.6-5.6)]. Neonatal complications, such as admission to neonatal intensive care unit, were higher in the TL group without reaching significance. However, the adjusted OR [1.9 (1.1-3.3)] for perinatal asphyxia was significantly increased in TL group.

Conclusion: Maternal morbidities and perinatal asphyxia were significantly higher in the TL group of adolescent women compared with the ECS group in this study.

Importance: Current evidence of the association between prenatal exposure to glucocorticoids and long-term mental disorders is scarce and has limitations.

Objective: To investigate the association between prenatal exposure to systemic glucocorticoids and mental disorders in offspring at the age of 15 years, comparing exposed vs unexposed offspring born to mothers with the same underlying disease (risk of preterm delivery and autoimmune or inflammatory disorders).

Design, Setting, And Participants: This nationwide population-based cohort study used data from registries in Denmark with follow-up until December 31, 2018.

Background: Mother's own milk (MOM) is important as the first nutrition for preterm infants, but mothers often struggle to initiate milk production right after preterm birth. If antenatal breastmilk expression (aBME) does not induce preterm labor when performed before term age, it could promote nutrition with MOM right after preterm birth. In this pilot study, we aimed to investigate whether aBME induces preterm labor among healthy nulliparous women from week 34 of pregnancy, to examine if aBME promotes the availability of MOM right after birth and affects breastfeeding outcomes.

Introduction: Long-acting injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA) for pre-exposure prophylaxis significantly reduced HIV acquisition in HPTN 084. We report on the safety and CAB-LA pharmacokinetics in pregnant women during the blinded period of HPTN 084.

Methods: Participants were randomized 1:1 to either active cabotegravir (CAB) plus tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) placebo or active TDF/FTC plus CAB placebo.

Data on the HIV care cascade demonstrated challenges in achieving Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) targets across all 18 EHE focus metropolitan areas, but innovative adherence interventions using point-of-care tenofovir testing and motivational interviewing support care cascade outcomes in Namibia and South Africa, respectively. Data on treatment with long-acting injectable (LAI) antiretroviral therapy (ART) demonstrated high acceptability, retention, and virologic suppression including in groups that were not well represented in clinical trials including persons born female and persons with detectable viral loads. The adjuvanted hepatitis B vaccine appeared to be safe and appeared to be superior to conventional hepatitis B vaccines in persons with HIV (PWH) who were prior nonresponders to the hepatitis B vaccine.

Objective: To evaluate descriptive efficacy data, exploratory immunogenicity data, and safety follow-up through study completion from the global, phase 3 MATISSE (Maternal Immunization Study for Safety and Efficacy) maternal vaccination trial of bivalent respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) prefusion F protein vaccine (RSVpreF).

Methods: MATISSE was a phase 3, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial. Healthy pregnant participants aged 49 years or younger at 24-36 weeks of gestation were randomized (1:1) to receive a single RSVpreF 120 micrograms or placebo dose.
