Background: Adolescent pregnancy may be associated with medical complications related to the biological immaturity of the mother, and adult primiparous mothers may present perinatal outcomes associated with pre-existing age-related chronic changes.
Objective: To compare unfavorable perinatal outcomes in adolescent and adult primiparous women.
Material And Methods: Observational, cross-sectional, retrospective and analytical study. Records of adolescent women from 12-19 years and adult women from 20-40 years in their first pregnancy, with a gestation of more than 20 weeks, who entered the Obstetrics Area of a third level hospital for pregnancy resolution were included. Perinatal outcomes were compared using chi-squared, Fisher's exact test, or Mann-Whitney U test.
Results: 220 records of primiparous women, 110 adolescents aged 18 (16-19) and 110 adults aged 24 (21-25) were included. Adolescent mothers presented as unfavorable perinatal outcomes newborns (NB) small-for-gestational-age (SGA): odds ratio (OR) 2.95 (95%CI 1.10-7.85), p = 0.04. Adult pregnant women presented more comorbidities (gestational hypertension [11.82 vs. 3.64%] and preeclampsia [10.91 vs. 4.55%], gestational diabetes [6.36 vs. 0.91%], [p = 0.006]) that were associated with prematurity (p = 0.018) and with hospitalization in the NB (p = 0.008).
Conclusions: Adolescent mothers presented twice more SGA NB. Prematurity and hospitalization of the NB was associated with the presence of comorbidities in adult mothers.

Department of Surgery, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois. Electronic address:
Background: Metabolic bariatric surgery is the most effective therapy for severe obesity, which affects the health of millions, most of whom are women of child-bearing age. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) are the most common bariatric procedures and are associated with durable weight loss and comorbidity resolution. Although obstetric outcomes broadly improve, the safety profile comparing the impact of RYGB and SG on obstetric outcomes is underexplored.

Objective: Babies born between 27 and 31 weeks of gestation contribute substantially towards infant mortality and morbidity. In England, their care is delivered in maternity services colocated with highly specialised neonatal intensive care units (NICU) or less specialised local neonatal units (LNU). We investigated whether birth setting offered survival and/or morbidity advantages to inform National Health Service delivery.
