Prenatal diagnosis of chromosomal aberrations by chromosomal microarray analysis and pregnancy outcomes of fetuses with polyhydramnios. J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med 2024; 37:2344089. [PMID: 38710614 DOI: 10.1080/14767058.2024.2344089] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the prenatal clinical utility of chromosome microarray analysis (CMA) for polyhydramnios and evaluate the short and long-term prognosis of fetuses with polyhydramnios. METHODS A total of 600 singleton pregnancies with persistent polyhydramnios from 2014 to 2020 were retrospectively enrolled in this study. All cases received amniocentesis and were subjected to CMA results. All cases were categorized into two groups: isolated polyhydramnios and non-isolated polyhydramnios [with soft marker(s) or with sonographic structural anomalies]. All fetuses were followed up from 6 months to five years after amniocentesis to acquire short and long-term prognosis. RESULTS The detection rates of either aneuploidy or pathogenic copy number variants in fetuses with non-isolated polyhydramnios were significantly higher than those with isolated polyhydramnios (5.0 vs. 1.5%, p = 0.0243; 3.6 vs. 0.8%, p = 0.0288). The detection rate of total chromosomal abnormalities in the structural abnormality group was significantly higher than that in the isolated group (10.0 vs. 2.3%, p = 0.0003). In the CMA-negative cases, the incidence of termination of pregnancy, neonatal and childhood death, and non-neurodevelopmental disorders in fetuses combined with structural anomalies was significantly higher than that in fetuses with isolated polyhydramnios (p < 0.05). We did not observe any difference in the prognosis between the isolated group and the combined group of ultrasound soft markers. In addition, the risk of postnatal neurodevelopmental disorders was also consistent among the three groups (1.6 vs. 1.3 vs. 1.8%). CONCLUSION For low-risk pregnancies, invasive prenatal diagnosis of isolated polyhydramnios might be unnecessary. CMA should be considered for fetuses with structural anomalies. In CMA-negative cases, the prognosis of fetuses with isolated polyhydramnios was good, and polyhydramnios itself did not increase the risk of postnatal neurological development disorders. The worse prognosis mainly depends on the combination of polyhydramnios with structural abnormalities.

Int J Gynaecol Obstet 2024; 166:1203-1211. [PMID: 38581215 DOI: 10.1002/ijgo.15527] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare rates of adverse pregnancy outcomes in term pregnancies complicated by polyhydramnios between women who had induction of labor (IOB) versus women who had expectant management. METHODS This multicenter retrospective study included term pregnancies complicated by isolated polyhydramnios. Patients who underwent IOB were compared with those who had expectant management. The primary outcome was defined as a composite adverse maternal outcome, and secondary outcomes were various maternal and neonatal adverse outcomes. Univariate analyses were followed by multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS A total of 865 pregnancies with term isolated polyhydramnios were included: 169 patients underwent IOB (19.5%), while 696 had expectant management and developed spontaneous onset of labor (80.5%). Women who underwent IOB had significantly higher rates of composite adverse maternal outcome (23.1% vs 9.8%, P < 0.01), prolonged hospital stay, perineal tear grade 3/4, intrapartum cesarean, postpartum hemorrhage, blood products transfusion, and neonatal asphyxia compared with expectant management. While the perinatal fetal death rate was similar between the groups (0.6% vs 0.6%, P = 0.98), the timing of the loss was different. Four women in the expectant management group had a stillbirth, while in the induction group one case of intrapartum fetal death occurred due to uterine rupture. Multivariate analyses revealed that IOB was associated with a higher rate of composite adverse maternal outcome (adjusted odds ratio, 2.22 [95% CI, 1.28-3.83]; P < 0.01). CONCLUSION IOB in women with term isolated polyhydramnios is associated with higher rates of adverse maternal outcomes in comparison to expectant management. Further research is needed to determine the optimal approach for the management of isolated polyhydramnios at term.

JOURNAL OF ULTRASOUND IN MEDICINE : OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ULTRASOUND IN MEDICINE 2024; 43:1535-1542. [PMID: 38712537 DOI: 10.1002/jum.16476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2023] [Revised: 04/14/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Prior studies show conflicting evidence as to whether obesity in the absence of other medical or pregnancy-related conditions contributes to amniotic fluid disorders. The purpose of this study is to determine the association between late-pregnancy obesity with oligohydramnios (amniotic fluid index [AFI] ≤5 cm or maximum vertical pocket [MVP] <2 cm) and/or polyhydramnios (AFI ≥24 cm or MVP ≥8 cm). METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of 961 women with singleton gestations who had one or more obstetrical ultrasounds at a single institution at 36 0/7 weeks gestation or beyond between August 1, 2015, and May 1, 2020. Patients were included if they had valid pregnancy dating and a documented AFI and/or MVP. Patients were categorized based on body mass index or BMI (eg, normal, overweight, Class I Obesity, Class II Obesity, or Class III Obesity). RESULTS A total of 6.2% of patients met criteria for oligohydramnios based on AFI, MVP or both (n = 60). There was no significant association between oligohydramnios and increasing BMI, regardless of obesity class (P = .21). In terms of polyhydramnios, 5.6% of patients met criteria based on AFI, MVP, or both (n = 54). Similarly, there was also no significant association between polyhydramnios and increasing BMI, regardless of obesity class (P = .66). CONCLUSIONS Elevated maternal BMI was not significantly associated with disorders of amniotic fluid, regardless of the severity of obesity.

[PMID: 37644170 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-023-05171-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2023] [Revised: 08/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/19/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to compare the blood metabolic status of neonates with idiopathic polyhydramnios (IPH) and those with normal amniotic fluid, and to explore the relationship between IPH and fetal health. Blood metabolites of 32 patients with IPH and 32 normal controls admitted to the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between January 2017 and December 2022 were analyzed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and metabolite enrichment analyses were performed to identify the differential metabolites and metabolic pathways. There was a significant difference in the blood metabolism between newborns with IPH and those with normal amniotic fluid. Six discriminant metabolites were identified: glutamate, serine, asparagine, aspartic acid, homocysteine, and phenylalanine. Differential metabolites were mainly enriched in two pathways: aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis, and alanine, aspartate, and glutamate metabolism. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first to investigate metabolomic profiles in newborns with IPH and examine the correlation between IPH and fetal health. Differential metabolites and pathways may affect amino acid synthesis and the nervous system. Continuous attention to the development of the nervous system in children with IPH is necessary. WHAT IS KNOWN • There is an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes with IPH, such as perinatal death, neonatal asphyxia, neonatal intensive care admission, cesarean section rates, and postpartum hemorrhage. • Children with a history of IPH have a higher proportion of defects than the general population, particularly central nervous system problems, neuromuscular disorders, and other malformations. WHAT IS NEW • In neonates with IPH, six differential metabolites were identified with significant differences and good AUC values using LC-MS/MS analysis: glutamic acid, serine, asparagine, aspartic acid, homocysteine, and phenylalanine, which were mainly enriched in two metabolic pathways: aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis and alanine, aspartate, and glutamate metabolism. • These differential metabolites and pathways may affect amino acid synthesis and development of the nervous system in neonates with IPH.

Term Idiopathic Polyhydramnios, and Labor Complications. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12030981. [PMID: 36769629 PMCID: PMC9917959 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12030981] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2022] [Revised: 01/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and Aim: Polyhydramnios is associated with an increased risk of various adverse pregnancy outcomes, yet complications during labor have not been sufficiently studied. We assessed the labor and perinatal outcomes of idiopathic polyhydramnios during term labor. Methods: Retrospective cohort study at a tertiary medical center between 2010 and 2014. Women with idiopathic polyhydramnios defined as an amniotic fluid index (AFI) greater than 24 cm or a deep vertical pocket (DVP) > 8 cm (cases) were compared with women with a normal AFI (5-24 cm) (controls). Statistics: Descriptive, means ± SDs, medians + IQR. Comparisons: chi-square, Fisher's exact test, Mann-Whitney Test, multivariate logistic models. Results: During the study period 11,065 women had ultrasound evaluation completed by a sonographer within two weeks of delivery. After excluding pregnancies complicated by diabetes (pre-gestational or gestational), fetal anomalies, IUFD, multifetal pregnancies, elective cesarean deliveries (CD) or missing data, we included 750 cases and 7000 controls. The degree of polyhydramnios was mild in 559 (75.0%) cases (AFI 24-30 cm or DVP 8-12 cm), moderate in 137 (18.0%) cases (30-35 cm or DVP 12-15 cm) and severe in 54 (7.0%) cases (AFI >35 cm or DVP > 15 cm). Idiopathic polyhydramnios was associated with a higher rate of CD 9.3% vs. 6.2%, p = 0.004; a higher rate of macrosomia 22.8% vs. 7.0%, p < 0.0001; and a higher rate of neonatal respiratory complications 2.0% vs. 0.8%, p = 0.0001. A multivariate regression analysis demonstrated an independent relation between polyhydramnios and higher rates of CD, aOR 1.62 (CI 1.20-2.19 p = 0.002) and composite adverse neonatal outcome aOR 1.28 (CI 1.01-1.63 p = 0.043). Severity of polyhydramnios was significantly associated with higher rates of macrosomia and CD (p for trend <0.01 in both). Conclusions: The term idiopathic polyhydramnios is independently associated with macrosomia, CD and neonatal complications. The severity of polyhydramnios is also associated with macrosomia and CD.
