Introduction: Persistent fetal vasculature (PFV) is a congenital anomaly associated with significant surgical challenges, including a high risk of postoperative retinal detachment (RD). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of surgical approach and axial length (AL) on RD risk and visual outcomes in pediatric PFV management.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving 76 eyes of 74 patients who underwent cataract surgery for PFV between 2014 and 2022.

Background: SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy poses health risks to both mother and fetus. This study investigates neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) against the SARS-CoV-2 JN.1 Omicron subvariant in pregnant women, focusing on responses to natural infection, vaccination, and passive immunity.

Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a severe condition marked by intense nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, which is different from typical morning sickness. It is marked by weight loss exceeding 5% of pre-pregnancy weight, ketonuria, dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and in some cases, arrhythmias - primarily linked to electrolyte disturbances. Treatment typically involves conservative measures such as small, bland meals, medications like metoclopramide and ondansetron, and correction of electrolyte abnormalities.

Background: Preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM) before or around the limit of fetal viability is associated with serious maternal and neonatal complications including chorioamnionitis, extremely preterm birth, and pulmonary hypoplasia.
Objectives: To describe contemporary outcomes of extremely preterm infants born after prolonged periviable PPROM, and to identify perinatal factors associated with survival and survival without severe neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI).
Study Design: Among actively treated infants born alive at <27 weeks' gestational age (GA) in centers of the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Neonatal Research Network from 2012 to 2018, the outcomes of survival and survival without severe NDI at 22-26 months' corrected age were compared between infants exposed to prolonged (≥120 hours) periviable (<24 weeks' GA) PPROM and unexposed infants born after rupture of membranes ≤18 hours before delivery or at delivery, adjusting for birth GA, sex, multiple gestation, antenatal steroids, small for gestational age (SGA), insurance, and center.
