Abstract
Hematological changes during pregnancy encompass a wide range of alterations in blood composition and function, including variations in hemoglobin levels, red blood cell count, and coagulation factors. These changes can be physiological or pathological and may significantly impact maternal and fetal health outcomes. This narrative review examines the relationship between various hematological changes and disorders during pregnancy and their effects on maternal and fetal mortality and morbidity. We explore conditions such as anemia, sickle cell disease, thrombophilia, and blood-borne infections like malaria, as well as the impact of multiple pregnancies on hematological parameters. The review also discusses the effects of COVID-19 on maternal hematology. Key findings include the high prevalence of adverse perinatal outcomes associated with these conditions, including early miscarriages, preterm birth, low birth weight, intrauterine growth restriction, and increased risk of maternal complications. The importance of early screening, diagnosis, and appropriate management of hematological disorders during pregnancy is emphasized. This review highlights the need for a multidisciplinary approach to managing pregnant women with hematological changes to optimize maternal and fetal outcomes.

Abstract
Several maternal genetic variations are known to play an important role during pregnancy since they can affect mother health and/or fetal growth. The frequency of these variants is variable among different populations. This study aimed to investigate thrombophilia, folate metabolism and hypertension genetic variants in reproductive age women of Rostov region (Russia) and then assess their linkage disequilibrium (LD) and heterogeneity among populations. A total of 3108 reproductive age women were included (33.75 ± 5.13 years). Twenty-one genetic variants were detected with RT-PCR. LD was tested according to (D') coefficient and p value. The highest frequency of mutant allele in studied population was as follows: PAI-1 rs1799768, MTRR rs1801394, AGT rs699, and AGTR2 rs1403543. We showed a high possibility of coinheritance of MTHFR rs1801133 with rs1801131 and AGT rs699 with rs4762 (D'=0.992 and 0.999, respectively). In addition, comparative analysis showed F7 rs6046, FGB rs1800790, MTR rs1805087, and AGT rs699 significantly more frequent among Rostov females by 1.3-1.5 times than European. MTHFR rs1801133, ADD1 rs4961, AGTR2 rs1403543, NOS3 rs2070744, and rs1799983 were with higher frequencies in Europeans than those in the studied group. Our data could be used as a reference for further associative studies of targeted genetic variations in different pregnancy complications specifically in this population.

Scher MS. Interdisciplinary fetal-neonatal neurology training applies neural exposome perspectives to neurology principles and practice. Front Neurol 2024; 14:1321674. [PMID: 38288328 PMCID: PMC10824035 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2023.1321674] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/31/2024] Open
Abstract
An interdisciplinary fetal-neonatal neurology (FNN) program over the first 1,000 days teaches perspectives of the neural exposome that are applicable across the life span. This curriculum strengthens neonatal neurocritical care, pediatric, and adult neurology training objectives. Teaching at maternal-pediatric hospital centers optimally merges reproductive, pregnancy, and pediatric approaches to healthcare. Phenotype-genotype expressions of health or disease pathways represent a dynamic neural exposome over developmental time. The science of uncertainty applied to FNN training re-enforces the importance of shared clinical decisions that minimize bias and reduce cognitive errors. Trainees select mentoring committee participants that will maximize their learning experiences. Standardized questions and oral presentations monitor educational progress. Master or doctoral defense preparation and competitive research funding can be goals for specific individuals. FNN principles applied to practice offer an understanding of gene-environment interactions that recognizes the effects of reproductive health on the maternal-placental-fetal triad, neonate, child, and adult. Pre-conception and prenatal adversities potentially diminish life-course brain health. Endogenous and exogenous toxic stressor interplay (TSI) alters the neural exposome through maladaptive developmental neuroplasticity. Developmental disorders and epilepsy are primarily expressed during the first 1,000 days. Communicable and noncommunicable illnesses continue to interact with the neural exposome to express diverse neurologic disorders across the lifespan, particularly during the critical/sensitive time periods of adolescence and reproductive senescence. Anomalous or destructive fetal neuropathologic lesions change clinical expressions across this developmental-aging continuum. An integrated understanding of reproductive, pregnancy, placental, neonatal, childhood, and adult exposome effects offers a life-course perspective of the neural exposome. Exosome research promises improved disease monitoring and drug delivery starting during pregnancy. Developmental origins of health and disease principles applied to FNN practice anticipate neurologic diagnoses with interventions that can benefit successive generations. Addressing health care disparities in the Global South and high-income country medical deserts require constructive dialogue among stakeholders to achieve medical equity. Population health policies require a brain capital strategy that reduces the global burden of neurologic diseases by applying FNN principles and practice. This integrative neurologic care approach will prolong survival with an improved quality of life for persons across the lifespan confronted with neurological disorders.

Effects of anti-Xa activity monitoring on the outcome of high-risk pregnancies treated with a prophylactic dose of low-molecular-weight heparin. Eur J Haematol 2023; 111:655-661. [PMID: 37533300 DOI: 10.1111/ejh.14060] [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: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 07/10/2023] [Accepted: 07/11/2023] [Indexed: 08/04/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate if anti-Xa level monitoring and dose adjustment in women using a prophylactic dose of enoxaparin can decrease placenta-mediated pregnancy complications. METHODS This retrospective observational cohort study included pregnant women receiving enoxaparin prophylaxis, who were followed at the Thrombosis and Hemostasis Outpatient clinic between 2010 and 2017. The dose was adjusted according to enoxaparin anti-Xa levels in the study group or the weight of individuals in the control group. RESULTS Of 585 women surveyed, 110 met the inclusion criteria; 63 of them were included in the study group and 47 in the control group. Mean starting dose was 46 versus 43 mg (p = .25), mean final dose was 52 mg versus 45 mg (p = .03) and dose adjustment was required in 37% versus 11% (p = .002) in the study and control groups, respectively. Twenty-eight percent of anti-Xa measurements in the second trimester were beneath the prophylactic threshold, compared to 11% and 16% in the first and third trimesters, respectively (p = .02). Labors ended with live birth in 91% versus 94% of cases (p = .5), 85% versus 68% of pregnancies were term (p = .05), 11% versus 23% of newborns were low birth weight (p = .1) and placenta-mediated pregnancy complications were documented in 9% versus 19%, (p = .17) in the study group relative to controls, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The most prominent decrease in anti-Xa levels was observed in the second trimester. Monitored women had significantly more term deliveries and demonstrated a trend toward higher birth weight and fewer placenta-mediated pregnancy complications. Larger studies are needed to confirm improved pregnancy outcome in monitored women.

A Cross-Sectional Analysis of Intimacy Problems, Stress Levels, and Couple Satisfaction among Women with Thrombophilia Affected by Recurrent Pregnancy Loss. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2023; 20:1208. [PMID: 36673963 PMCID: PMC9859390 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20021208] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is one of the most challenging and difficult areas of reproductive treatment due to the immense emotional suffering inflicted on families and couples affected by RPL. As a result, it is predicted that couples experiencing recurrent pregnancy loss would have an increase in marital problems, stress levels, and anxiety, preventing them from achieving their family goals. The current cross-sectional study aimed to target pregnant women with thrombophilia with a history of RPL to observe their intimacy problems, stress levels, and couple satisfaction by completing a series of digital questionnaires. These patients were considered as the reference group, while the control group was formed by other women with thrombophilia and a history of RPL who eventually achieved pregnancy and gave birth. A total of 238 complete questionnaires were recorded (157 in the reference group and 81 in the control group). It was observed that women in the reference group who did not give birth had a significantly higher proportion of three or more pregnancy attempts (54.1% vs. 39.5%) and a significantly higher proportion of three more pregnancy losses (68.8% vs. 55.6%). It was observed that patients in the reference group were more likely to be emotion-oriented (42.7% vs. 27.2%). Also, women in the reference group had higher levels of dissatisfaction and lower levels of self-acceptance, pleasure, and marital quality scores. The total SII and DSCS scores were significantly lower than women with thrombophilia with a history of RPL who eventually gave birth. Women from the reference group had significantly greater intimacy problems and stress levels while having lower openness scores and self-esteem scores than women in the control group. It is possible that women with thrombophilia and recurrent pregnancy loss are more dissatisfied with their marriages than those who subsequently had one child. Since the financial status of those who achieved pregnancy was observed to be higher, it is likely that they achieved pregnancy by ART interventions, as they reported in questionnaires. It is important to target families afflicted by thrombophilia and other reasons for infertility to ease their access to ART therapies. By achieving their objectives, affected families will minimize dissatisfaction, divorce rates, and stress.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our study purposed to examine the complex relationship between low-molecular-weight heparin therapy, multiple pregnancy determinants, and adverse pregnancy outcomes during the third trimester in women with inherited thrombophilia. METHODS Patients were selected from a prospective cohort of 358 pregnant patients recruited between 2016 and 2018 at the Clinic for Obstetrics and Gynecology, University Clinical Centre of Serbia, Belgrade. RESULTS Gestational age at delivery (β=-0.081, p=0.014), resistance index of the umbilical artery (β=0.601, p=0.039), and D-dimer (β=0.245, p<0.001) between 36th and 38th weeks of gestation presented the direct predictors for adverse pregnancy outcomes. The model fit was examined using the root mean square error of approximation 0.00 (95%CI 0.00-0.18), the goodness-of-fit index was 0.998, and the adjusted goodness-of-fit index was 0.966. CONCLUSION There is a need for the introduction of more precise protocols for the assessment of hereditary thrombophilias and the need for the introduction of low-molecular-weight heparin.

Abstract
Background Pregnancy is a prothrombotic condition which can be abnormally exaggerated in women with thrombophilia. Methods In a prospective study, patients who delivered at term, by cesarean section, between 1 October 2017 and 1 December 2021, who already had a diagnosis of thrombophilia before coming to our hospital, were included in the study group (n = 80). A similar number of nonthrombophilia patients (n = 80) without any history of thrombotic events, age‐ and para‐matched with the study group, were included in the control group. The postpartum uterine ultrasonographic scale (PUUS) values, in the first 24–48 h, were correlated with the patients' data. Results The P‐LCR (platelet large cell ratio), was significantly higher in the treated thrombophilia group (p = 0.042). There was no correlation between PUUS and complete blood count values, coagulation factors, maternal characteristics, or fetal outcomes, except for postpartum neutrophils (p = 0.047) and postpartum platelet count (p = 0.046). Conclusions Postpartum uterine involution was not significantly different, after cesarean section, between treated thrombophilia patients and nonthrombophilia patients. Involution correlated only with postpartum neutrophils and postpartum platelet count.

Abstract
Pregnancy and the postpartum period represent a condition characterized by a thrombotic predisposition. The majority of pregnant women do not face acute or severe thrombotic events. In general, mild inconveniences such as leg swelling or moderately painful thrombotic events (phlebitis) are encountered. However, when pregnancy is associated with inherited or acquired deficits that affect homeostasis, the risk of acute or even life-threatening events can increase significantly. The major consequence is the loss of the fetus or the venous thromboembolism that endangers the mother's life. Venous thromboembolism is caused by deep vein thrombosis, therefore timely detection and especially the assessment of the extent of the thrombotic event are crucial. In this paper we have summarized the most important paraclinical investigations. The study emphasizes the importance of selecting the methods of investigation. The right choice allows establishing a correct diagnosis and individualizing the treatment.

Abstract
Methods to prevent the development of pathologies due to placental dysfunctions, such as gestational hypertension and preeclampsia, are the main approaches for obtaining the best maternal and fetal antepartum and postpartum prognosis. During 5 years of study (January, 2015 to December, 2019), the cases of pregnancy and puerperium complicated with pathology due to placental dysfunction were analyzed. The main objective was to determine the magnitude of the impact of thrombophilia on the development of an entity of gestational hypertension disorder. We compared the impact of thrombophilia and its associated complications in patients with gestational hypertension with moderate and severe preeclampsia. Thus, we found obesity, thrombophilia, and underlying cardiac pathology to be significant risk factors for severe preeclampsia. Regarding the comparative analysis of the risk factors and complications associated with patients with mild preeclampsia compared with those with severe preeclampsia, the presence in severe preeclampsia of thrombophilia, endocrine, liver, and cardiac pathology was higher and, a higher rate of complications was observed; complications included fetal death, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), prematurity, fetal arrhythmia with acute fetal distress, HELLP syndrome, and placental abruption. Thrombophilia has a significant effect on the development of severe preeclampsia, and oligohydramnios as specific complication of mild preeclampsia. Factors indicating an increased risk of progression from mild preeclampsia to severe preeclampsia are in addition to inherited thrombophilia the underlying pathologies, namely cardiac, hepatic, and endocrine factors.
