1 Materials and methods 1.1 Subjects From September 2021 to August 2022, the patients who received induction of labor by cervical double balloon combined with oxytocin in a Grade III A Maternal and Child Health Hospital in Changsha were included in the study. A double balloon and oxytocin induced labor at a tertiary maternal and child health centre in Changsha. Inclusion criteria: 1 age ≥18 years; 2 Singleton; 3 no vaginal infection, fetal membranes intact; 4 according with the indication of induced labor [5] ; These included delayed pregnancy, hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy, diabetes mellitus, cervical Bishop score < 6, and negative oxytocin provocation test (Oct) . The exclusion criteria were: 1 abnormal head and pelvis, unable to be delivered vaginally; 2 twins; 3 maternal contraindication of vaginal delivery; 4 severe placental dysfunction, unable to tolerate vaginal delivery; 5 there were contraindications for the use of cervical balloon. 1.2 Methods 1.2.1 Operation Method First of all, pregnant women to introduce the procedure of placing the balloon, ease their fear, tension. Assist the patient to take the stone position, sterilize vulva 3 times, spread aseptic towel, expose cervix with vaginal speculum, sterilize vagina and cervix 3 times with iodine cotton ball, after sterilizing the cervical tube 3 times with iodine-complexed cotton swab, insert the disposable dilatation balloon (Henan Bonding Industry Co., Ltd., Yusheng Medical Supervision Machine No. 20180029, model: Type II 18F) into the cervical tube, until the two sacs into the cervical canal and ensure that the double sacs are through the cervical mouth, sub-turn to the cervical inside and outside sacs slowly injected saline 80 ml each. The end of the balloon catheter was fixed to the inner thigh of the pregnant woman with 3m adhesive tape, without restricting the physical activity of the pregnant woman. The operation process is smooth, the pregnant woman has no discomfort, before and after the operation monitoring fetal heart is normal, instructs the pregnant woman to test the fetal movement, closely observes the pregnant woman labor sign and the fetal intrauterine situation. The balloon is usually inserted between 16:00 and 18:00. The balloon is taken out at 8:00 am the next day, oxytocin (Ringe 500ml + oxytocin 2.5 U) was given intravenously to the patients who were not in Labor 1 hour after rupture of membranes. According to the frequency of uterine contractions, if there is no uterine contractions, increase the rate of dripping 8 drops/min, maximum dose not more than 40 drops, until regular uterine contractions, after every half-hour assessment. 1.2.2 Observation indicators Using the hospital electronic medical record information system to search and review the medical records of these women, the age, number of pregnancies, number of parturients, weight gain during pregnancy, height, weight, pre-and post-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) , indication of induced labor, pregnancy complications, gestational age at the time of balloon induced labor, neonatal weight, cervical Bishop score before and after balloon dilatation, occurrence of acute Chorioamnionitis, fetal distress, NST typing, mode of delivery, etc. . The clinical data of the patients who were induced by cervical double balloon combined with oxytocin were analyzed, and the related factors of pregnancy outcome were also discussed. 1.3 Statistical credits SPSS 25.0 was used to analyze the data. The mean ± standard deviation was used for statistical description and t-test was used for statistical analysis. The frequency was used for statistical description and chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to determine the influencing factors of different pregnancy modes, and the difference was statistically significant with P < 0.05.
The main objective of this study is to test the efficacy of an intervention package (dietary, physical and lifestyle modification) during pregnancy in improving the clinical outcomes of mother-infant dyads.
The Mediterranean-style diet has been associated with longevity, long-life wellbeing, lower risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. Research is pointing to the benefits that MeD could have in pregnant. Pregnancy is a very complex period and recently, the attention has been focused on the possibility that healthy dietary patterns positively influence pregnancy and the development of organs in the offspring. The mechanisms through which MeD influences pregnancy and fetal growth may partly depend on its antinflammatory properties and possibly on changes in epigenetic mechanisms. Systemic inflammation might contribute to the association between maternal obesity and less favorable neurodevelopmental outcomes. The investigators aim to define how maternal adhesion to MeD may affect pregnancy and new-born development, hence representing a notable burden from a public health and social perspective. Main objective of this project is to build up a birth cohort suitable to investigate the role of maternal dietary habits on maternal and new-born health, with special focus on MeD and its possible mechanism of action through epigenetic and inflammation changes. To establish a mother/new-born cohort, collect detailed information on maternal dietary habits and set-up a biobank of biological samples to evaluate the association between dietary habits and pregnancy outcomes. The investigators will recruit 2000 pairs (mother, new-born) in different obstetrics departments. To investigate the association between maternal dietary habits, foetal growth and offspring development and possible mediation by the inflammation profile of the mother. To understand whether maternal dietary habits are associated with epigenetic changes in the offspring and if this process is driven by the inflammation profile of the mother. Venous blood samples will be obtained at the baseline and at each gestational period for ultrasound at 11-13 gestational weeks, 20-22 weeks and 30-32 weeks. Women will be followed-up with standard clinical and 2D ultrasound examinations at gestational weeks 11-13, 20-22 and 30-32 to evaluate the fetal growth. Offspring development will be assessed at 6, 12, 18, 24 months of age. After delivery, the investigators will collect umbilical cord blood and saliva samples from new-born using standard procedures. To understand if new-born epigenetics is associated with infant physical and neurocognitive development in the following 2 years.
The overarching goal of the ARCH Survey is to establish a prospective longitudinal pregnancy surveillance study in Lusaka, Zambia, to precisely characterize the pregnancy rate and outcomes of women of reproductive age prior to, during, and following pregnancy and to investigate the structural, sociodemographic, and clinical covariates that contribute to adverse outcomes in each reproductive epoch.
The purpose of this study is to determine the features of clinical imaging, disease severity and pregnancy outcomes in posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome with preeclampsia or eclampsia.
Type I diabetes mellitus (T1DM) affects about 0.1-0.2% of all pregnancies. T1DM in pregnancy increases the risk of maternal and neonatal complications. Continuous glucose monitoring systems (CGM) provide a continuous display of measured glucose. Studies have shown improved pregnancy outcomes for patients with T1DM using CGM when compared to capillary blood glucose measurements. This prospective observational study analyses impact of glycemic variability on development of large-for-gestational-age neonates and effects of hypoglycemia during pregnancy on pregnancy outcomes. Furthermore, overall glycemic regulation, different insulin metrics and C-peptide concentration during pregnancy will also be assesed.
Background: The North Carolina Early Pregnancy Study (EPS) was held from 1982 to 1986. Women who were trying to get pregnant took part in the study. They collected urine samples. They kept diaries. They filled out surveys. They answered questions about their partners. They were asked about their drug use. Data about air pollution and other exposures were also collected. A follow-up study was held from 2010 to 2011. Researchers want to use the data and samples to study factors that affect reproductive success. Objective: To examine behavioral and environmental exposures and reproductive health, such as menstrual cycles, conception, pregnancy loss, and pregnancy outcomes. Eligibility: The 221 healthy women age 21-42 who were planning to get pregnant and took part in the 1982-86 North Carolina EPS at the time they stopped using all birth control. A 2010-11 follow-up included 173 of these women. Design: This study uses existing data. No new data will be collected in this study. Stored urine samples may be used. Data from surveys and other sources will be used. All of the women who gave data and samples will be included. Electronic data is held in secure databases. The data is kept on computers that are password protected. Hard-copy data are stored in locked file cabinets. The study will take place at more than one site. Data will be shared with groups outside the NIH....
