This study investigates correlation infection across various trimesters. prospective cohort was conducted at two hospitals southwest China, examining clinical records status of 2158 pregnant women registered January 1, 2022, September 30, 2023. Initially shielded from COVID-19, population later experienced a significant surge. A comparative analysis evaluated infected uninfected subjects. Primary included complications premature births, while secondary encompassed cesarean sections, delivery complications, outcomes. Pregnant had higher incidence placenta increta/percreta postpartum hemorrhage compared to women.

Introduction Vaccination during pregnancy protects both the mother and foetus from vaccine-preventable diseases. However, uptake of recommended vaccines (influenza, pertussis, COVID-19) by pregnant women remains low in Europe USA. Understanding reasons for this is crucial to inform strategies increase vaccination rates women. This qualitative systematic review aimed identify barriers facilitators against influenza, pertussis/whooping cough COVID-19 possible rates. Methods We conducted a comprehensive search electronic databases, including Medline, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Web Science, WHO database, Embase grey literature studies that explored vaccine among (PROSPERO CRD42023399488). The was limited published between 2012 2022 high-income countries with established programmes pregnancy. Studies were thematically analysed underwent quality assessment using Joanna Briggs Institute validated critical appraisal tool research. Results Out 2681 articles screened, 28 (n = 1573 participants) eligible inclusion. Five overarching themes emerged relating personal, provider systemic factors. Barriers included concerns about safety efficacy, lack knowledge vaccines’ benefits necessity, fear adverse effects on or perception disease severity. Facilitators recommendations trusted healthcare providers, easy access vaccination, clear communication positive social influences family friends. Strategies increasing strong proactive professionals, provision routine antenatal care, consistent addressing women’s concerns. Conclusion highlights need interventions address identified Recommendation can play significant role promoting uptake, as risk/benefit convenient vaccination. Addressing providing accurate information also important.

Importance COVID-19 vaccination is recommended throughout pregnancy to prevent complications and adverse birth outcomes associated with disease. To date, data on defects after first-trimester are limited. Objective evaluate the risks for selected major structural among live-born infants receipt of a messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine. Design, Setting, Participants This was retrospective cohort study singleton pregnancies estimated last menstrual period (LMP) between September 13, 2020, April 3, 2021, ending in live from March 5, January 25, 2022. Included were 8 health systems California, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Minnesota, Wisconsin Vaccine Safety Datalink. Exposures Receipt 1 or 2 mRNA vaccine doses first trimester, as part primary series.

BACKGROUND: Patients with preeclampsia exhibit hypertension and chronic inflammation characterized by CD (cluster determinant) 4+T cells, B cells secreting AT1-AA (agonistic autoantibody against the angiotensin II type 1 receptor), inflammatory cytokines, complement activation. Importantly, a history of COVID-19 during pregnancy is associated an increased incidence preeclampsia-like phenotype partly mediated CD4+T cells. We recently showed pregnant patients or without produce AT1-AA, indicating importance lymphocytes in progression possibly COVID-19. Therefore, we hypothesize that from induce through AT1-AA. METHODS: Placental were isolated normal pregnant, preeclampsia, normotensive history, at delivery. Then, 3×10 5 transferred intraperitoneally into athymic rats gestational day 12. On 18, carotid catheters inserted. 19, mean arterial pressure was measured, tissues collected. RESULTS: Preeclampsia B-cell recipients had significantly pressure, activation compared recipients.

Importance COVID-19 vaccine–derived antibodies in pregnant people may protect infants from severe infection the first 6 months of life via transplacental antibody transfer. Few data exist on maternally derived SARS-CoV-2 preterm compared with full-term association vaccination timing. Objective To compare anti-Spike (anti-S) levels and context vaccine dose timing before delivery. Design, Setting, Participants This prospective cohort study enrolled individuals collected paired maternal cord blood samples at delivery University Washington between February 1, 2021, January 31, 2023. who had received least 2 doses a messenger RNA did not have history prior or detectable anti–SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid were included.
