HERVs (Human endogenous retroviruses) are remnants of ancient exogenous retroviruses that have integrated into the human genome, particularly in germ-line cells. Among these, the envelope protein gene (Human endogenous retroviruses W family envelope protein), located on chromosome 7 and primarily expressed in the human placenta, has been closely linked to various neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, as well as autoimmune diseases and cancer. Recent studies have highlighted the abnormal expression of cytokines as a key factor in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia.

Purpose: To evaluate the association between lateral placentation and adverse perinatal outcomes, including rates of small for gestational age (SGA) neonates, hypertensive (HTN) disorders, and preterm delivery, as well as postpartum hemorrhage and retained placenta.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study included all women with singleton pregnancies who underwent a trial of labor after reaching 24 weeks of gestation, at a single tertiary medical center, over a period of 6 years. The study group included women with lateral placentation.

Purpose: Our primary objective was to characterize clinical and procedural factors affecting sample size in chorionic villus sampling (CVS).
Methods: This retrospective, single-site cohort study included singleton pregnancies undergoing transabdominal (TA) and transcervical (TC) CVS between 2020 and 2023. Prenatal and maternal data were obtained from the electronic medical record.

From fertilisation to delivery, calcium must be transported into and within the foetoplacental unit for intracellular signalling. This requires very rapid, precisely located Ca transfers. In addition, from around the eighth week of gestation, increasing amounts of calcium must be routed directly from maternal blood to the foetus for bone mineralisation through a flow-through system, which does not impact the intracellular Ca concentration.
