Pregnancy, delivery and post partum conditions were coded from Helsinki Well Mother-Baby Clinics and Lying in hospitals for all deliveries to a birth cohort of Helsinki schizophrenic women. Greater difficulty was observed at all perinatal stages for the chronic and mild schizophrenic groups than for controls. These differences were heightened in the case of winter births.

Background: Allowing women to have a companion of their choice during labor and delivery is a cost-effective strategy to enhance the quality of maternal care and promote a positive birth experience. Due to the limited studies on women's preferences for labour companionship, this study aimed to assess the desire for labour companionship and its associated factors among pregnant women attending ante-natal care at public health facilities in Debre Berhan City.
Method: A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from August 1-30, 2022.

Background: The early colonization and establishment of the microbiome in newborns is a crucial step in the development of the immune system and host metabolism. However, the exact timing of initial microbial colonization remains a subject of ongoing debate. While numerous studies have attempted to determine the presence or absence of intrauterine bacteria, the majority of them have drawn conclusions based on sequencing data from maternal or infant samples taken at a single time point.

Maternal adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are linked to negative health and developmental outcomes in offspring. However, whether maternal ACEs influence infant weight gain in the first months of life, and if this effect differs by infant sex, remains unclear. This study included 352 full-term newborns from low-risk pregnancies and their mothers in low-income settings in Brazil.

Background: Adrenomedullin (AM) is a potent angiogenic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory peptide protecting the developing lung from injury due to bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) of the preterm infant. At this stage, no data on the potential effects of chorioamnionitis (CA) occurrence and glucocorticoids (GC) administration on AM in developing lungs are still lacking.
Objective: to investigate, in a sheep-based model, the positive/side-effects of combined exposure to CA and GC on AM concentrations measured in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF).

Background: The use of glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) has greatly increased in patients of reproductive age within the past four years. However, there is minimal research into the long-term impact of these medications on future pregnancies.
Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the association between adverse obstetric outcomes and antecedent GLP-1RA use using a nationally representative database.
