Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to validate the modified WHO (mWHO) risk classification for predicting cardiac events in pregnant women with heart disease across advanced and emerging countries, while identifying additional risk factors.
  • The research involved 2,742 pregnant women with heart disease, revealing a higher occurrence of cardiac events in emerging countries (36.3%) compared to advanced ones (12.8%), and highlighting different prevalent heart conditions in each region.
  • Although the mWHO classification effectively predicts risk in advanced countries (c-statistic 0.726), its performance declines in emerging countries (0.633); incorporating pre-pregnancy health indicators could enhance risk assessment and counseling efforts in both settings.

Patients undergoing IVF/ICSI treatments were randomized to either day 1 or day 3 transfers after previous failed ICSI trials due to failed implantation. The primary outcome measure was pregnancy rate.
