Ambient Toxic Air Contaminants in the Maternal Residential Area during Pregnancy and Cerebral Palsy in the Offspring.
Environ Health Perspect
January 2025
Department of Environmental Health Sciences, Yale School of Public Health, New Haven, Connecticut, USA.
Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common permanent neuromotor disorder diagnosed in childhood. Although most cases have unknown etiology, emerging evidence suggests environmental risk factors of CP.
Objectives: We investigated whether ambient toxic air contaminants (TACs) in the maternal residential area during pregnancy, specifically volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and metals, were associated with offspring CP risk in California.
Predictive Value of First Amniotic Sac IL-6 and Maternal Blood CRP for Emergency Cerclage Success in Twin Pregnancies.
J Pers Med
January 2025
Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, La Fe University and Polytechnic Hospital, 46026 Valencia, Spain.
To assess the usefulness of first amniotic sac Interleukin-6 (IL-6) to rule out intra-amniotic inflammation (IAI), as well as maternal blood c-reactive protein (CRP), to select patients with a twin pregnancy who may benefit from an emergency cerclage. : Retrospective, descriptive study among all patients with a twin pregnancy and mid-trimester bulging membranes admitted to a tertiary Hospital from January 2012 to September 2023. According to the Hospital's Protocol, all patients received a vaginal and abdominal ultrasound, a maternal blood test, and an amniocentesis of the first sac to rule out IAI, defined by IL-6 ≥ 2.

The purpose of this observational study was to investigate the association between maternal serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels in late pregnancy and the risk of ABO, and to evaluate its predictive value of maternal ALP levels for ABO in women with singleton pregnancies.
Methods: A total of 11 853 consecutive pregnant women underwent hepatic and renal function tests, lipid profile assessments, ALP and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels measurements upon admission for labour.
Unveiling the potential role of the shock index in maternal sepsis: reality or fantasy?
J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med
December 2025
Departamento de Ginecología y Obstetricia, Fundación Valle del Lili, Cali, Colombia.
Objective: Maternal sepsis continues to be a maternal health problem associated with 75,000 deaths per year worldwide, representing a greater burden in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Although the Shock Index (SI) has been widely studied in postpartum hemorrhage and in non-obstetric populations, it has not yet been widely studied in sepsis. We aimed to identify the relationship between Shock Index and suspected sepsis in pregnant and postpartum patients to explore the use of Shock index in the context of maternal sepsis and its relationship with sepsis-related outcomes.

Department of Epidemiology, Boston University School of Public Health, 715 Albany Street, Boston, MA, USA.
Background: Identifying risk factors for postpartum depression (PPD) is critical to inform early intervention efforts. This study investigated the impact of adverse perinatal events on PPD.
Methods: We analyzed data from the Pregnancy Study Online (PRESTO), a North American prospective preconception cohort study.
