Increased Risk of Preeclampsia with Assisted Reproductive Technologies.

Division of Reproductive and Developmental Sciences, Oregon National Primate Research Center, Oregon Health & Science University, 505 NW 185th Ave, Beaverton, OR, USA.

Published: September 2023

Purpose Of Review: We summarized recent available data to assess the association between assisted reproductive technology (ART) and risk for preeclampsia.

Recent Findings: The majority of clinical studies supporting the association of preeclampsia and ART are retrospective. Published data from both clinical and pre-clinical studies suggest specific ART procedures may contribute to the increased risk, including in vitro embryo handling and development, hormone stimulation, transfer cycle types, and use of donor oocytes/embryos. Potential mechanisms include epigenetic aberrations leading to abnormal placentation, absence of factors secreted by the corpus luteum, and immunologic responses to allogenic gametes. There is an increased risk of preeclampsia following ART. Treatment plans that favor reduced preeclampsia risk should be considered for ART pregnancies. To make ART pregnancies safer, additional clinical and animal model studies are needed to elucidate the underpinnings of this risk association.

Introduction: Body mass index (BMI) has been implicated in various cardiovascular conditions, but its association with peripheral artery disease (PAD) in both real-world and genetic studies have been contentious and debated.

Methods: This study enrolled 6707 individuals from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database to investigate the association between BMI and the risk of PAD. The weighted logistic regression, restricted cubic spline, and subgroup analysis were performed using real-world data.

Introduction: Unplanned, delayed readmissions (>30 ds) following oncologic surgeries can increase mortality and care costs and affect hospital quality indices. However, there is a dearth of literature on rectal cancer surgery. Hence, we aimed to assess the risk factors associated with delayed readmissions following rectal cancer surgery to improve targeted interventions, patient outcomes, and quality indices.

Importance: Endocrine treatments, such as Tamoxifen (TAM) and/or Aromatase inhibitors (AI), are the adjuvant therapy of choice for hormone-receptor positive breast cancer. These agents are associated with menopausal symptoms, adversely affecting drug compliance. Topical estrogen (TE) has been proposed for symptom management, given its' local application and presumed reduced bioavailability, however its oncological safety remains uncertain.

This study explores the relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D/calcium/alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels and kidney stone development via cross-sectional and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2013 to 2018 to explore the associations of 25(OH)D metabolite, calcium, and ALP levels with kidney stone development, LDSC analysis to determine the associations between their genetically predicted levels and kidney stone development, and MR analysis to determine the causality of those relationship via genome-wide association studies (GWASs). The cross-sectional study revealed a relationship between ALP levels and kidney stone development (Model 1: OR = 1.

While recent studies suggested a potential causal link between type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) but not type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), the involved mechanism remains unclear. Here, using a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, we verified the causal relationship between the two types of diabetes mellitus and IPF and investigated the possible role of inflammation in the association between diabetes mellitus and IPF. Based on genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary data of T1DM, T2DM, and IPF, the univariable MR, multivariable MR (MVMR), and mediation MR were successively used to analyze the causal relationship.
