Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific, multisystem disorder affecting 3% to 8% of pregnancies and remains a significant cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. The World Health Organization estimates that approximately 76,000 maternal deaths annually are attributed to preeclampsia, accounting for 16% of global maternal mortality, with the majority occurring in low- and middle-income countries
A Phase 3, multi-center clinical trial of a CCT-102 regimen compared to expectant management to promote uterine evacuation in first trimester non-progressing Delayed Pregnancy Loss (DPL).
In 50% of women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) miscarriages are unexplained, therefore no therapeutic intervention is possible. In a pilot study, women with unexplained RPL showed less endometrial NK cells (eNK) compared to women with a previously uncomplicated pregnancy. It is known that eNK cells are important for embryo implantation during early pregnancy. Investigators presume that high sympathetic activity in these women is related to eNK cell number, function and phenotype and that exercise is an effective intervention to lower sympathetic activity and to influence the immune system, as especially peripheral NK cells have been assumed to be responsive to physical training. The investigators hypothesize that moderate exercise can lower the adrenergic tone of the sympathetic nervous system hereby influencing endometrial NK cells in women with RPL and eventually pregnancy outcome.
The purpose of this Registry is to prospectively collect data of Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL) patients attending the specialized care centre at the BC Women's Hospital, in order to evaluate investigation practices, treatment options, and outcomes for this patient population over time.
This study aims to explore the potential correlation between decreased ovarian reserve and previous history of early miscarriage.
Among the 15% of couples who experience a spontaneous early miscarriage (SEM) during their pregnancy, approximately 2 to 5% will suffer from recurrent SEM. It is only after the third SM that they will be offered a workup to look for a predisposition to SEM. This workup does not currently include a search for foetal chromosomal abnormalities that could be considered causal for this event. These anomalies are responsible for approximately 50% of SEM and their detection could lead to an explanation for half of the couples currently without a diagnosis after a standard workup. The diagnosis of chromosomal abnormalities can be made by karyotype analysis or by Cytogenetic Microarray Analysis (CMA) on the product of conception. Unfortunately, karyotyping has a high failure rate due to poor cell culture of samples that are often degraded or of low quantity. The CMA is not always feasible due to the absence of analyzable feto-placental material linked to the use of a drug strategy for its elimination. The study of cell-free DNA of syncytiotrophoblastic origin (cfDNA) circulating in the maternal plasma could be a solution as it is for non-invasive prenatal screening of trisomy 21. cfDNA is detectable from 6 to 8 weeks of amenorrhea and released in the maternal blood as long as placental tissue is present in the uterus, can be easily obtained by maternal venous sampling. If maternal blood sampling is performed before complete removal of the product of conception, then detection of foetal chromosomal abnormalities would be possible. Thus, if failure rates of CMA and cfDNA techniques are comparable, cfDNA could be preferred as it applies for miscarriages for whom no fetoplacental material can be obtained. This study therefore proposes to compare the failure rates of the two technologies (CMA and cfDNA) for the detection of chromosomal abnormalities in recurrent SEM.
This study aims to provide psychological support to women that experienced an Early Pregnancy Loss (when the loss occurs until the 20 weeks of gestation) using an innovative Virtual Reality prototype and compare the presence and evolution of psychological distress symptoms pre and post-intervention. The main goals of this study are: 1. Evaluate the impact of the proposed VR paradigm in women who suffered a gestational loss in the first 20 weeks of gestation, compared to a control group that follows the usual standard care; 2. Evaluate the usability, user experience, and acceptance of the proposed approach. Participants in the VR group will have an intervention program lasting four weeks, with 3 weekly sessions of 45-60 minutes, using the developed prototype.
The goal of this prospective observational study is to learn about the effect of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) application on bone mineral density (BMD) and on calcium-phosphorus metabolism in patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA), and to compare the degree of bone loss and changes in blood calcium and phosphorus in RSA patients and in control groups with normal pregnancy. By monitoring ultrasound BMD and serum indicators related to maternal bone formation and Ca-P metabolism, the association mechanism between long-term use of LMWH, maternal Ca-P regulation and bone loss will be constructed, so as to contribute to clinical treatment and lifestyle guidance during pregnancy in RSA patients.
The objective of this single-center prospective observational study is to clarify the trend of maternal serum 25(OH)D levels before pregnancy and during pregnancy, and to explore the correlation between serum 25(OH)D levels and subsequent pregnancy outcomes of patients with abortion, so as to provide certain scientific evidence for finding the optimal serum level of 25(OH)D and optimal vitamin D supplementation to maintain a healthy pregnancy.
