By means of an exact nephrologic examination 6 weeks post partum of 128 patients with hypertension in pregnancy an exact classification in preeclampsia (46 per cent), chronic hypertension (34%) and superimposed preeclampsia (13 per cent) is possible. In cases of essential hypertension a hypotensive therapy is necessary.

Adolescent menstrual cycle pattern, body mass index, endocrine and ovarian ultrasound characteristics of PCOS and future fertility, cardiovascular-, and metabolic health: a 25-year longitudinal follow-up study.
Hum Reprod
January 2025
Department of Reproductive Medicine, Amsterdam UMC, Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Study Question: What is the predictive value of oligomenorrhea and other PCOS diagnostic characteristics in adolescence (age 15-18 years) for future fertility and cardiovascular and metabolic health at adult age?
Summary Answer: Adolescents with oligomenorrhea are more often treated to conceive but are as likely to have as much children as those with regular periods, while persisting oligomenorrhea may associate more often with cardiovascular or metabolic problems.
What Is Known Already: Adolescents with oligomenorrhea have a high risk for adult PCOS associated with subfertility due to ovulatory disorders and long-term health risks. Longitudinal studies to estimate the extent of these risks with input starting at adolescence and covering the complete reproductive lifespan are lacking.
Hypokalaemia in pregnancy - Prevalence, underlying causes, and an approach to investigation.
Obstet Med
December 2024
Department of Obstetric Medicine and Endocrinology, Mater Hospital Brisbane, QLD, Australia.
Objective: To investigate the prevalence and aetiology of hypokalaemia in pregnancy.
Methods: This was a five-year retrospective audit of women who received care at a tertiary hospital, who developed hypokalaemia during pregnancy and within three weeks postpartum. Serum potassium and magnesium levels cause(s) of hospitalization and investigations for hypokalaemia were obtained from hospital records.
Impact of COVID-19 on pregnancy outcomes during delivery admissions: a nationwide analysis with clinical implications.
Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent)
May 2024
Department of Internal Medicine, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA.
Background: The available literature indicates a link between SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy and a heightened probability of experiencing negative outcomes for both the pregnant patient and the developing fetus. We compared clinical outcomes of pregnant patients with or without COVID-19 hospitalized during delivery.
Methods: Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to compare outcomes and was adjusted for patient-related, hospital-related, and illness severity indicators.
Natural history of blood pressure in sickle cell disease pregnancy.
Br J Haematol
February 2024
Division of Hematology, Department of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
In this retrospective cohort study of singleton pregnancies in people with sickle cell disease (SCD) delivered at two academic centres between 1990 and 2021, we collected demographic and SCD-related data, pregnancy outcomes, and the highest systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP) at seven time periods. We compared blood pressure values and trajectories in the composite cohort and in each genotype group to control values in a non-SCD pregnancy dataset. There were 290 pregnancies among 197 patients with SCD.

Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent)
June 2023
Department of Anesthesiology, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut, USA.
Background: Point-of-care testing provides a representation of the patient's coagulability status during effective postpartum hemorrhage management. Baseline values of rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) have not yet been reported in a heterogeneous obstetric population. This study aimed to establish a baseline for a diverse population representative of the United States.
