Abstract
BACKGROUND Biomonitoring-based epidemiological studies on prenatal antibiotic exposure and behavioral problems in preschoolers are lacking. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between prenatal antibiotic exposure and internalizing and externalizing problems in preschoolers. METHODS Data from 2449 mother-child pairs were analyzed. Urine samples were repeatedly collected across three trimesters, and 43 antibiotics and 2 metabolites were measured, including preferred as veterinary antibiotics (PVAs), VAs, preferred as human antibiotics and human antibiotics. Preschoolers' internalizing and externalizing problems were evaluated by the Achenbach Child Behavior Checklist. Poisson regression models with generalized estimating equations were used to estimate risk ratios (RRs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) for preschoolers' internalizing, externalizing and total problems across tertiles of antibiotic concentrations during three periods of pregnancy, and performed several subgroup analyses. RESULTS First-trimester urinary oxytetracycline (RR = 1.69, 95%CI: 1.20, 2.39, P-FDR = 0.011), tetracycline (RR = 1.91, 95%CI: 1.36, 2.68, P-FDR < 0.001), doxycycline (RR = 1.66, 95%CI: 1.28, 2.17, P-FDR < 0.001) and PVAs (RR = 1.79, 95%CI: 1.29, 2.48, P-FDR < 0.001) concentrations in the highest tertile were related to an elevated risk of internalizing problems compared with concentrations in the lowest tertile. First-trimester urinary doxycycline concentrations in the third tertile were also associated with an increased risk of externalizing problems compared with the first tertile (RR = 2.00, 95%CI: 1.28, 3.15, P-FDR = 0.042). Compared with concentrations in the lowest tertile, first-trimester urinary doxycycline (RR = 1.63, 95%CI: 1.19, 2.22, P-FDR = 0.028) and PVAs (RR = 1.67, 95%CI: 1.14, 2.43, P-FDR = 0.047) concentrations in the middle tertile were related to an increased risk of total problems. Furthermore, the type of main caregiver and children's outdoor activities time modified the relationships between specific prenatal antibiotic exposure and preschoolers' behavioral problems. CONCLUSIONS Exposure to specific antibiotics during the first trimester may be related to an increased risk of internalizing and externalizing problems in preschoolers.

Abstract
During pregnancy, there is a state of immune tolerance that predisposes them to viral infection, causing maternal-fetal vulnerability to the adverse effects of COVID-19. Bacterial coinfections significantly increase the mortality rate for COVID-19. However, it is known that all drugs, including antibiotics, will enter the fetal circulation in a variable degree despite the role of the placenta as a protective barrier and can cause teratogenesis or other malformations depending on the timing of exposure to the drug. Also, it is important to consider the impact of the indiscriminate use of antibiotics during pregnancy can alter both the maternal and fetal-neonatal microbiota, generating future repercussions in both. In the present study, the literature for treating bacterial coinfections in pregnant women with COVID-19 is reviewed. In turn, we present the findings in 50 pregnant women hospitalized diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 without previous treatment with antibiotics; moreover, a bacteriological culture of sample types was performed. Seven pregnant women had coinfection with Staphylococcus haemolyticus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus agalactiae, Escherichia coli ESBL +, biotype 1 and 2, Acinetobacter jahnsonii, Enterococcus faecium, and Clostridium difficile. When performing the antibiogram, resistance to multiple drugs was found, such as macrolides, aminoglycosides, sulfa, dihydrofolate reductase inhibitors, beta-lactams, etc. The purpose of this study was to generate more scientific evidence on the better use of antibiotics in these patients. Because of this, it is important to perform an antibiogram to prevent abuse of empirical antibiotic treatment with antibiotics in pregnant women diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2.

Development and validation of a transcriptomic signature-based model as the predictive, preventive, and personalized medical strategy for preterm birth within 7 days in threatened preterm labor women. EPMA J 2022; 13:87-106. [PMID: 35273661 PMCID: PMC8897543 DOI: 10.1007/s13167-021-00268-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2021] [Accepted: 12/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/08/2022]
Abstract
Preterm birth (PTB) is the leading cause of neonatal death. The essential strategy to prevent PTB is the accurate identification of threatened preterm labor (TPTL) women who will have PTB in a short time (< 7 days). Here, we aim to propose a clinical model to contribute to the effective prediction, precise prevention, and personalized medical treatment for PTB < 7 days in TPTL women through bioinformatics analysis and prospective cohort studies. In this study, the 1090 key genes involved in PTB < 7 days in the peripheral blood of TPTL women were ascertained using WGCNA. Based on this, the biological basis of immune-inflammatory activation (e.g., IFNγ and TNFα signaling) as well as immune cell disorders (e.g., monocytes and Th17 cells) in PTB < 7 days were revealed. Then, four core genes (JOSD1, IDNK, ZMYM3, and IL1B) that best represent their transcriptomic characteristics were screened by SVM and LASSO algorithm. Therefore, a prediction model with an AUC of 0.907 was constructed, which was validated in a larger population (AUC = 0.783). Moreover, the predictive value (AUC = 0.957) and clinical feasibility of this model were verified through the clinical prospective cohort we established. In conclusion, in the context of Predictive, Preventive, and Personalized Medicine (3PM), we have developed and validated a model to predict PTB < 7 days in TPTL women. This is promising to greatly improve the accuracy of clinical prediction, which would facilitate the personalized management of TPTL women to precisely prevent PTB < 7 days and improve maternal-fetal outcomes.
